From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent

Chapter 417

Eyes playing tricks?

Adah frowned, "Am I seeing things?"

Sherman nodded slightly, "You are seeing things."

Adah thought about it, her son Sherman, ever since he was a child, had always been so stoic, hardly ever smiled.

She remembered when Sherman was five, trying to make him laugh by making funny faces.

But all she got was, "Mom, are you being silly on purpose?"

From that moment on, Adah stopped trying to make Sherman laugh.

Growing up, Sherman became even less fond of smiling, always carrying the same expression, his face taut. Like a wooden doll.

Perhaps, she really was seeing things just now.

Adah placed the fruits on the table, "The weather's been so dry and hot lately, you should eat more fruits."

"I don't want any, Mom, please take them away."

"Eating fruits is good for your health," Adah continued, "These are freshly air-flown lychees, and these peaches are also very good. Annie can eat two in one go! Oh, and later, let's have someone pack some peaches to send over to Annie!" With that, Adah headed downstairs.

After Adah left, Sherman picked up a peach, its flesh a mix of white and red, and took a bite.

Sweet and juicy.

Not bad at all.

He ate one peach after another, finishing the whole thing in no time.
