Chapter 1147

Sonia frowned upon receiving the basket from him as it was so heavy that she was certain it weighed more than ten pounds.

Charles helped her to place the basket on her desk and explained, "This is nothing. Since you like them so much, my mom purposely brought more back and got me to bring them to you since she rarely visits my grandmother. She's not sure when her next visit will be, which is why she brought more back for you so that these will last you until her next visit."

"It sounded like your mother went to visit your grandmother just to bring some of the local produce back. It makes me feel bad." Sonia laughed.

"Don't be." Charles reached over and took an apple from the fruit tray on the table and munched on it as he sat on the side of her desk. "Since my mom sees you as her own daughter, she bought a lot of it knowing that they are your favorite. Isn't it normal? After all, mothers would want their daughters' to be able to eat their favorite food."

"Even so, Mrs. Lane has bought me a lot of my favorite food all these while, but I rarely buy her anything. It makes me feel bad," Sonia said as she patted the basket.

"If you feel bad, you can visit her often if you have the time. You don't have to buy her anything since she doesn't really need anything else. Moreover, you don't have a hometown that you can go back to, so it would be hard for you to get local produce for her. She'd be happier if you go and visit her." Charles spoke with his mouth full as he chomped on the apple.

"You're right. Sure, I'll go visit her when I'm free." Sonia then took the basket from the table and placed it on the side. "I shall accept these then. Please thank Mrs. Lane for me."

"No worries, it's just some dried mushroom that doesn't cost much." Charles waved his hand at her as he spoke. Soon, he suddenly recalled something and pointed at the basket before saying, "Right, my mom also got something for Toby. She wants me to remind you to cook it and let him eat it."

"She wants me to cook it for Toby?" Sonia paused and looked to the direction of the basket before continuing, "What did Mrs. Lane get for Toby that I have to cook for him?"

Could it be some aphrodisiac food? From her memory, elders would normally prepare such food for their sons or son-in-laws. Sonia was thinking whether Grace was hinting at her and Toby to get married soon and have children. She felt embarrassed by such a thought and blushed at once.
