Due to the wrinkles on her face, she looked weathered and older than her actual age.
"After I gave birth, I had to go to work and couldn't take care of my child. So after Elliot was born, Nathan's mother took care of him." Susan recalled, "After I saved some money, I asked Nathan to let me see the child, but Nathan refused. Later, Nathan changed his contact information, and I couldn't find him. Fortunately, I knew his name."
"Oh Nathan, he's so bad!" Avery was also a mother now, so after hearing what Susan said, she was furious, "A person like him should die!"
Susan's eyes flickered, and her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't.
The atmosphere turned cold for a moment.
Elliot looked at Avery: "Would you like something else?"
Avery used a fork to stab the broccoli on the plate, "I'm full. Ask Susan if she wants something else."
Elliot was silent.
Susan hurriedly said, "I can eat these."
"Auntie, you don’t have to be polite to us. I don't think you like steak very much. There are other main dishes on the menu. You can order whatever you want." Avery handed the menu to Susan.
Seeing Avery's enthusiasm, Susan took over the menu with a smile and ordered a plate of fried rice with eggs.
"You still like the food in Aryadelle." Avery
smiled.
"Yeah." Susan put down the menu, not wanting to talk more about her eating habits.
"Auntie, what's your plan? Do you have a job in Bridgedale?" Avery wanted to know more about her.
