Chapter 38

Doris followed the contract to the letter, and he couldn’t find any fault.

A hint of annusement flashed in Lewis’s eyes as he watched Doris’s proud little expression. He realized that this woman was, in fact, somewhat cute.

The corner of his mouth twitched, but he couldn’t bring himself to say anything to refute her.

“Let’s go home.” Lewis took long strides and walked ahead.

Doris hurried to catch up, having to speed up her pace to keep up with him.

Back at Greenlake Hill, Lewis and Doris put the ingredients they bought into the kitchen.

Doris separated the vegetables, fruits, and meat and put them in the fridge, preparing to cook.

Just then, Peyton called, “Doris, sorry, your dad isn’t feeling well, so we won’t be coming.

“Since you’re married, just live well with him.

“Try to be as kind as your sister, take care of your husband, and be nice to your in–laws.

“Speak less, do more, and don’t give others something to gossip about.

“It’s best if you can have a son soon. A mother’s status rises with her son.

“From now on, you’re on your own, and I can’t help you much.”

Doris had already told her father about meeting Lewis’s parents for dinner today yesterday.

Jimmy immediately rejected the idea on the phone, denying Lewis as her son–in–law and rejecting her as his daughter.

Her mother comforted her, saying she would talk to her father and would respond this morning.

“I understand.” Doris had expected this outcome and wasn’t really disappointed.

Lewis came over to pour himself some water, and Doris said, “Sorry, my parents can’t make it.”

“Your dad doesn’t approve of me, what does that have to do with you?” Lewis imitated Doris’s tone from last night. “The one he likes is Ryan Watson. If you bring Ryan to meet him, he’ll be happy to see him.”

Doris was silent.

Lewis just smiled politely.
