My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 602

"You were a good girl. You didn’t cry." Since the little one didn't want to admit that she had cried, Karen didn't want to expose her either.

Little Karen smiled embarrassingly after hearing what her mother said. "Mommy, I will be good."

Little Karen could finally think clearly again. She remembered her father's reminder. She needed to be a sensible child and help her father take care of her mother. She could not mention her father in front of her mother, and she should not make her mother sad.

Karen bent over and planted a kiss on Little Karen's cheeks. "Come. Now that you've had a good sleep, get up quickly and come grocery shopping with mommy. I'll cook you a delicious meal tonight."

Yes, she needed to cheer up and start a new life, instead of living in her past and thinking about the people and things that she should stop reminiscing about.

"Okay. I want to eat strawberries and I want a fruit jam. I want to eat..." Little Karen was already drooling at the thought of all the delicious food she wanted.

"Okay, you can get all these." Perhaps, it was because Little Karen had stopped crying, or because of the progress she had from job searching, Karen finally felt better.

She took Jayden and Little Karen to a nearby supermarket. They got some ingredients with the plan to prepare dinner and invite Faye and her husband to join them that evening.

Both Little Karen and Jayden were very sensible. One helped to carry the rice packet, while the other helped to carry the vegetables. Both of them wanted to take care of their mommy.

Karen rubbed their heads and said, "You two are still too young. You still can't carry so many things yet. Let me carry them for you. You can help me when you're older, okay?”

"Not okay." It was quite rare for Jayden and Little Karen to be so in sync that both of them said that simultaneously.

"Then Jayden, you can help me carry the sauce and fruits." Karen handed the sauce and fruits to Jayden and then handed the rice to Little Karen. "Okay, you can help to carry the rice packet."

She asked the children to help carry some, and she carried the other two bags herself. In this way, she could satisfy the children's desire to help, but it wouldn’t be too tiring for them.

Karen received a call from George Ken as soon as she got home.

He said that he had found a good school for Jayden and also got him into a language fundamentals class. From tomorrow onwards, he would be taking language lessons for two hours every day.

George got someone to sort out the school for Jayden. This was yet another good news, and Karen was feeling even better now.

"Baby Karen, I'm going to cook. You will call Auntie Faye and invite Uncle Spencer and her over for dinner tonight." Karen brought the groceries into the kitchen while delegating some tasks to the kids.

The weather here was quite chilly, Karen had decided to prepare hotpot for dinner tonight. It would be quite fun for the two families to enjoy hotpot around the table in this weather.

Soon, Faye came running over. While helping Karen wash the vegetables, she nagged, "Why didn't you ask me to join you for groceries? Then I can ask Sebastian to carry all the heavy stuff."

Karen answered with a smile, "Woman, you only know how to bully Sebastian. Please don' t come crying if he ever goes to someone else."

"He deserves it. I've been bullying him for years. If I didn't bully him, he may not be used to it even." Faye was sure about Sebastian's demeanor. He wouldn't feel right if he didn't get scolded.

"Yes, yes, yes. I'm totally not used to you not scolding me. Then, Mrs. Spencer, please leave the vegetables to me. You can take a rest."

When Sebastian joined them later and saw his wife cleaning the vegetables, he felt a little heartache because he'd never let Faye do these things at home.
