Looking at her daughter, Daisy thought of something important, "What about the wedding? Are you not having one?"
"The doctor said the first trimesters are the most crucial. So, to prevent anything from happening to the baby, we've decided to have it after he's born."
Feeling bold, Summer pulled Daisy into a big hug and snuggled, "Mom, don't be mad at me anymore, okay?"
Daisy held and patted her daughter’s hand, "My daughter's all grown up now," she sighed, "I took care o f you ever since you were a small baby, and you've always told me everything. Getting married is one of the most important events in one's life and you hid it from me! Don’t I deserve to be angry?"
"Yes, mom, of course you do. Why don't you give me a few smacks as punishment to cheer up?"
Just as she did when she was a child, she giggled and turned around. With her back facing her mom, she arched up her lower back.
Seeing her do so, Daisy laughed and held her hand," Since you have already decided to do so, I won't overstep any further. I am fine with anything as long a s you are doing good."
Summer's eyes watered and she pulled her mom in a tight embrace, "Thanks, mom."
She knew that her parents were the only ones in the world who would love her so greatly and selflessly.
After chatting for a moment, they went out of the room and saw Mark and Solomon playing chess.
Summer felt that it was a weird sight to see and shifted her eyes away. Daisy felt so too.
The couple left after everyone had lunch together.
Daisy stood by the window and watched until the black and luxurious looking car drove away.
Meanwhile, Solomon was carefully cradling a bottle of wine in his arms, "What a wonderful surprise! This is the Cabernet Sauvignon from the Screaming Eagle! It costs a fortune!”
Daisy turned around and glared at him, "So what if he gave us expensive wine?!”
