Chapter 418 Ending Relations Upon Marriage

Upon hearing Ronan return, Greta brought out the last dish and set it on the table.

“Let’s eat. Will, Eme brought you home today without telling us beforehand. So, we didn’t prepare much. These are just some home–cooked dishes. I’m not sure if you’ll like them though,” she said.

William stood up and calmly glanced at Ronan’s pale face.

He spoke gently, “It’s my fault for not informing Eme beforehand that I intended to stay.”

The more the mother–in–law looked at her son–in–law, the more pleased she became. Greta hadn’t been this happy in a long time.

She smiled and said jokingly, “Will, don’t spoil Eme too much.”

She quickly defended Emelie at the same time. ‘Then again, Eme’s very sensible. She can’t be spoiled.” Emelie smiled faintly.

Everyone sat down to eat, and Greta served William a bowl of soup while spooning more and more food into his bowl.

“Will, try the fish soup. The vegetables are from our garden, and our old neighbor caught the fish. Also, the sweet and sour pork chop is Eme’s favorite. She’s loved sour food since she was a little girl,” Greta said. William glanced at Emelie and, as expected, she started eating the pineapple dressing on the top.

“She likes sour food?” William asked.

Greta chuckled. “Yes. In fact, we just bought a pound of calamansi and two pounds of lime for the Lunar New Year today.”

Greta suddenly thought about something. “Oh right, Will, I haven’t asked for your birth date yet. We have a tradition here where we check the birth dates to select auspicious dates for the wedding ceremony. Of course, we can discuss these matters after you’ve met with your father.”

Greta’s warm hospitality contrasted with Ronan’s silent and reserved demeanor at the dining table, which seemed increasingly unusual.
