Chapter 1251: It’s Mom
"Thank you for the ride, Penny." Nina smiled as she glanced at the small apartment she had been renting. "I’ll see you at the family dinner?"
Penny nodded. "Tell Finn I said hi."
"Mhm." With that, Nina picked up her bag and stepped out of the car. Facing the vehicle, she waved her hand while keeping the other behind her. "Take care."
"See yah!" As soon as those words left Penny’s mouth, the car started moving away.
Nina stood outside her place, staring at the car’s rear. The corner of her mouth lifted into a smile, now in a good mood after spending half the day with Penny and Lily. Although Mint’s presence had been unexpected, she was a pleasant surprise.
A soft chuckle escaped her as she turned toward the gate and walked inside. Once she was home, she immediately noticed that Finn’s shoes weren’t there.
"He usually comes home before me," she muttered, her smile stretching as she thought of making him something for dinner.
It had been a while since Nina could prepare a meal for Finn. Her schedule had been tight before the trip, and he typically came home before her, with dinner ready by the time she got in. She wanted to do the same for her fiancé.
With that thought in mind, Nina casually placed her handbag on the couch and headed to the kitchen. She slipped on her apron and checked the fridge to see what she could make. Her eyebrows rose as she saw that the fridge was still full, even after a five-day trip.
"This is..." Nina took out a small Tupperware, smiling as she realized who had stocked it. "Aunt Jessa."
