When Shaun turned and saw the Old Madam’s kind face, his heart softened and he quickly held out his
bowl to catch the drumstick. He said politely,“ Thank you, Grandma.”
“Oh, what a good boy.” Old Madam Hill was overwhelmed with emotions. “Oh, I never would’ve
imagined a day I’d see our Shaun behave so obediently. I hadn’t fulfilled my duty as a grandmother in
the past too. I’ll have to treat him better in the future. Old man, you’re not allowed to be as strict with
Shaun as you were when he was a child.”
“I know.” Old Master Hill was heartbroken too.
Throughout the meal, the Hill family desperately tried to make it up to Shaun.
Contrastingly, Shaun was not as excited as they were. He ate only half a drumstick and pouted before
running off to the toy room.
“Cathy, what happened? Did you fight?” Lea asked worriedly.
Catherine was a little taken aback. Was he unhappy because she glared at him earlier?
He was indeed childish. Sigh.
Not even Suzie was that petty.
Old Madam Hill frowned. “It’s not good if he doesn’ t eat. Lea, why don’t you feed him? Didn’ t you say
you wanted to paint a more colorful childhood for him?”
Lea was ashamed and stuttered, “It’s not that I don’t want to feed him, it’s just he doesn’t want me to
feed him.”
“Hmph, useless.” Old Master Hill glared at her expressionlessly.
Lea.“…”
“Grandma, I’ll feed him later.” Catherine smiled to defuse the awkwardness. “Shaunny listens to me.”
Old Madam Hill laughed. “You thought he had the IQ of a two—year—old but I’d beg to differ. Which
two-year-old cling to their wife instead of their mother? If you ask me, I’d say that even though he
doesn’t have any memories, his heart remembers the person he likes the most, and that’s Catherine.”
Old Master Hill nodded in agreement.
Catherine was embarrassed to hear this, but she was in fact beaming internally.
After all, Shaun did treat her differently.
She quickly ate up and brought the bowl to the playroom.
As she left, she heard Suzie telling everyone softly, “ When Shaunny told Mommy to kiss him, Mommy
only kissed his forehead. He didn’t seem to like being kissed on the forehead, so he was unhappy the
entire time he played with us.”
Catherine stumbled and almost fell down.
She was abashed to the point she wanted to burrow into the ground. Suzie was such a busybody.
Old Madam Hill chuckled. “I told you. It’s clear that he wanted to be kissed by his wife. Being young
and in love is such a wonderful thing.”
Catherine. “…”
She just imagined a row of crows flying over her head. With flushed cheeks, she went to deal with
Shaun.
