"Mom, the oatmeal you cooked is so delicious. One bowl is definitely not enough. I can still eat two more bowls." Jayden decided to push what was bothering him to the back of his mind and enjoyed accepting care from his parents.
"Okay, have some then. I will give you more when you are done." Seeing Jayden getting better, Karen was much more relieved.
Jayden said, "Mom, I'm guessing Julien has no idea that you and Dad came to Madison City?"
With a smile, Karen replied, "If he finds out that we've come to Madison City to see you, he'll definitely make a fuss and want to come along."
"Julien making a fuss?" As Jayden recalled, Julien did not cry much when he was a tiny baby. Julien's haughty aloofness was completely inherited from Kevin!
Jayden could not imagine how fussy Julien could get. It must look quite adorable!
"Speaking of which, Julien is really different from ordinary children. At such a young age, he's so aloof all day long. I don't know why does he do that. I'm really worried that no girls would like him in the future." Speaking of Julien, Karen was brimming with love and smiling.
"Just like Dad, Julien has a cold exterior but is actually a warm child inside. It is entirely up to fate on whether he will be able to find a girl that likes him." Jayden could see through what Kevin and Julien had in common. It was hard to say whether there would be a girl who could potentially like him. Even when Jayden was so outstanding, girls generally do not fancy him, especially Silvia.
Karen nodded and agreed with Jayden. "In fact, both your father and Julien are fussy and stubborn at times, but they can be cute too."
Cute?!
Kevin just reached the doorstep when he heard his wife described him in such a manner. He could not help but raise his eyebrows. How could a man like him be described as cute?
Karen was probably the only person in the world who dared to use such a word to describe him.
Kevin gave Karen a displeasing look, then he looked at Jayden and said, "Jayden, do you still feel unwell?"
Even when Kevin was concerned, his expression still appeared cold and indifferent. This was normal, considering how well they know him. Otherwise, he would be easily misunderstood.
"Dad, I was feeling slightly unwell but I feel much better after having Mom's oatmeal." This was the first time Jayden attempted to crack a joke with Kevin around.
"Glad that you're feeling better." Kevin did not know what else to say. The atmosphere in the room became awkward. It was up to Karen to liven up the mood.
"Kevin, I prepared your share too. Go downstairs, eat some, and go to sleep. Don't talk about work today." Kevin was busier than Karen last night, and he had not slept the entire night. Karen felt sorry for him.
"Okay." Kevin never wanted to worry Karen. Under normal circumstances, he would do whatever she told him to do without question.
"Knock, knock."
Auntie Cherry was knocking on the door. "Master Jayden, Miss Turner is here."
"Silvia's back?" Jayden's eyes lit up instantly. He quickly straightened his posture and looked straight at the door but did not see Silvia's figure.
Karen and Kevin looked at the door at the same time. They both wanted to see their daughter- in- law, whom they had not met before.
Auntie Cherry felt a little embarrassed with everyone looking at her. "Master Jayden, Miss Turner is downstairs. She wants to ask you something and asks if you can go downstairs to see her?"
"Alright, tell her to wait for me in the lounge." Hearing Silvia's return, Jayden was so excited that he completely forgot that he lied to his mother about Silvia going on a trip with her mother. Now that Silvia was not willing to come upstairs, he suddenly remembered and could not help but to feel embarrassed.
However, as for Karen...
