Facade of Love

Chapter 61 It’s Not Impossible for Me to Be the Son–In–Law!

“Yvette, I just heard from Little Sanchez that since he’s returned from abroad, he’s been staying in a hotel this whole time. I’ve thought about it and decided to invite him to live with us. It would be convenient for me to cook for you two regularly. especially since you’ll soon be showing. It’s also good to have a guy around to take care of you. What do you think?”

My mother interrupted my thoughts with her suggestion.

I was stunned for a moment, glancing at Maxwell with a bit of confusion. What had he discussed with my mother that led her to make such a proposal?

Maxwell did not look at me, so I turned to my mother helplessly. “Mom, Mr. Sanchez might be used to living alone. He might not be comfortable living with us. Η

“Why wouldn’t he be comfortable?” my mother retorted. “Little Sanchez is like a son to your father and 1. We watched him grow up. When he was still in school, I thought about having him stay with us. Unfortunately, he was a good student and went abroad, so we never had the chance. Now that he’s back, it’s perfect. We’re family, after all. Isn’t that right, little Sanchez?”

Maxwell nodded, smiling. “Yes, Mrs. Scott is right. I’ve always wanted to enjoy your cooking. I used to think about it all the time, and now that I’m back, I finally can.”

Plus, what was that thing in the past they were discussing?

I was a bit baffled, turning to my mother and asking, “Mom, did you know Mr. Sanchez before this?”

nodded while serving Maxwell some food. “Little Sanchez is a child your father and I sponsored for over twenty years. We never mentioned it to you,
