Samuel wore a brown-colored heart-shaped neckline sweater, a white shirt inside, a pair of pants, and white-colored shoes. He stood upright, red lips and white teeth, delicate cheeks, high nose bridge, and curly black hair.

He patted his sister’s head, "Simona, have you been listening to mommy?"

Simona nodded vigorously, adoring his brother. They were both a few minutes’ difference, but Samuel was way more mature and understanding.

Simona still looked like a little girl next door, naive and cute.

Dolores had already brought dinner to the table, "Alright, wash your hands and eat."

Sampson came over, reaching out for Simona but was stopped by Dolores, "Sampson, you go eat. I’ll wash their hands."

"Let me help you." Sampson did not distance himself with Dolores despite having that discussion just now.

"Dr. Herbert, let Lola do it. You should sit down." Jessica said politely.

Sampson had no choice but to settle down at the table, whereas Jessica took a bottle of wine and sat down at the table.

She took a glance on the toilet to make sure Dolores wasn’t eavesdropping and said to Sampson, "After all these years, thank you."

She poured a glass for Sampson and for herself. Foreign wine wasn’t that spicy compared to white wine, so she finished her whole glass of wine in on gulp. "I do hope she can be with you, but you know Lola. She’s as stubborn as a mule, plus, she has to take care of her two kids now. You’re not young anymore, Sampson. If you met the perfect one, just go."

"Auntie, if you can, please help me persuade her." Sampson was staring at his glass of wine, not touching it yet.

How would Jessica have not persuaded yet?

She was always grateful for Sampson, always helping Dolores at the most difficult time, taking care of her.

It was fair to say, without Sampson, there will be no Dolores.

Jessica was grateful and satisfied with Sampson.

But Dolores refused, what can she do anyway?

Jessica smiled bitterly, "I’ve already persuaded her, but she won’t listen."

She understood her daughter’s intention anyway. She had given birth to two kids, after all. Sampson had a good family and a lovely face, but he didn’t mind her at all.

But her daughter minded.

She knew how important one’s innocence was to a husband.
