Chapter 15 It Will Never Happen.

  • Roxana nodded. "I know. It will never happen."
  • "Mommy, what are you and Zoey talking about? Can I join in too?" Mia pouted her lips and tugged Roxana's shirt.
  • "Zoey was praising Eidan's cooking skills. The food looks delicious."
  • Zoey went along with her ruse. "Eidan, you're amazing. You can cook even better than I do. Do you mind taking over the cooking duties from now on?"
  • However, Roxana nudged her immediately. "How can you bear to make my son cook every day? Don't be lazy."
  • "Tsk, mom knows best. Alright, we shall go out for dinner to celebrate Roxana's successful admission into Jacquin Group. It's my treat!"
  • Later, Roxana, Zoey, and the children went to a restaurant in Sky Hotel.
  • "Eidan, Mia, I ordered a lot of food. You have stayed in England all this while, so you probably have no idea how delicious our local cuisine is." Zoey placed some food on the children's plates.
  • Roxana's eyes beamed with delight as she watched her daughter enjoying the food. However, she could not help but frown as she turned to her son.
  • "Eidan, why aren't you eating? Is the food not suited to your taste?" Roxana patted Eidan's shoulder.
  • "Mommy, the food here is much better than my cooking. I am trying to figure out how they do it, so don't disturb me."
  • Zoey could not help but laugh as she looked at Eidan thinking seriously. "Roxana, your son is amazing. He can read maps and analyze cooking at such a young age. Once he is older, he will probably know how to do everything. How I wish I have a genius son like him."
  • "Zoey, it is pointless feeling wishful or jealous. You should consider having your own children." Eidan looked up and frowned. His serious expression made him seem almost identical to a certain man.
  • Zoey felt her heart skip a beat before beating rapidly.
  • Damn, it's scary whenever this mini Mr. Jacquin stares at me like this. Can I tell him he is scaring me?
  • "Zoey, does Mr. Jacquin have severe face blindness? Is it only toward women?"
  • Zoey was puzzled for a moment and could not figure out why Roxana would ask this question. Even so, she answered frankly, "Mr. Jacquin is talented in almost everything. Unfortunately, he could not remember women's faces. Everyone in the company secretly joked that Mr. Jacquin would be in trouble since he would not remember his wife's face in the future."
  • "It can't be that bad…" Roxana was surprised to discover his flaw.
  • "You haven't told me what happened to your voice? Why does it sound clear but suddenly turn hoarse in the next moment."
  • "Mommy learned it from a famous musician. She can easily make her voice hoarse." Eidan placed food on Roxana's plate. He behaved considerably more maturely than his age.
  • "Wow, that's incredible!"
  • Roxana smiled. "You will know how to do it once you know the techniques. I'll teach you when we have time. Anyway, can you give me a list of celebrities tonight?"
  • "Mommy, no talking about work during dinner." Eidan sounded stern, but he said it out of concern for Roxana's well-being.
  • Roxana smiled and raised her hand in surrender. She could not say no to him.
  • "Mommy, I need to go," Mia mumbled urgently. Roxana immediately understood what she meant and grabbed her to head to the washroom.
  • Meanwhile, Zoey looked at Eidan, who was staring at her. She could not help but feel nervous. Can this kid not look at me like this?
  • Ever since I realize he looks like Mr. Jacquin, I can't stop feeling nervous.
  • After leaving the restaurant, Roxana carried Mia and rushed toward the washroom. Mia kept twisting restlessly all the way.
  • Roxana knew it meant Mia could not hold it much longer.
  • "Mia, the washroom is just ahead. You need to hold it a little longer, and don't pee on me. You are already five years old."
