Ike was speechless.
Janice's friends were all from her generation, all old people now, right?
Everyone else was also speechless.
All moms were pretty much the same.
Everyone had a blast at dinner.
After dinner, they chatted for a bit before heading downstairs together.
Janice and her son were still staying at Ascend Hotel, and they were the ones who saw Stefan and the others off.
Lucinda was still trying to convince Keith, "Keith, just have our mom move into Ascend Estate. It's a nice place, very safe."
"The Ascend Hotel is also very safe. If you don't trust me, you should trust your husband." Keith laughed, "Give it some time. I'll bring mom to bother you two later." They still had a lot of things to sort out.
First of all, they hadn't informed both families about this yet.
After failing to persuade Keith, Lucinda could only say, "Then you'll have to bring mom to my shop every day so we can bond."
"Sure."
As they were heading out of the hotel, they bumped into another group right at the entrance.
It was Owen who had brought Ruby for dinner.
Ruby had taken quite some time to shower and change at Pinehurst Hotel.
By the time they arrived at Ascend Hotel, Stefan and the others were already full and ready to leave.
Ruby was still holding the bouquet Owen had given her.
Owen was also very gentle and caring towards her, and their mothers were delighted, intentionally lagging a few steps behind the two, so that they had a chance to be close. Both groups stopped.
"Stefan." Ruby called out to Stefan joyfully.
If it weren't for Lucinda being by Stefan's side, she might have lunged at him like before. But every time, she ended up catching air, unable to even touch Stefan's sleeve, let alone jump into his arms. Stefan glanced at her coldly, his lips tightly pressed together, not responding to her.
Ruby's joy cooled instantly.
