Juanita brought the dishes to the table one by one, and Joyce helped to set the table.
Juanita greeted, "Auntie Cecelia, Anderson, all come over for dinner."
Joyce waved her hand towards Anderson, "Anderson, you sit with Grandma."
"Okay, Mommy." Anderson climbed into his seat, and Joyce handed him a raised cushion so he could reach the desk by himself.
Cecelia sat down next to Anderson and looked at him lovingly, one hand still resting on Anderson' waist.
After Karl was seated, the seat next to him was naturally reserved for Juanita.
In this way, the remaining position, Luther and Joyce can only be next to each other.
Luther came over from the window, sat down, and vacated the seat beside him for Joyce.
Joyce froze and frowned slightly.
She was left with no choice. She couldn't let Juanita sit with Luther while she sat with Karl.
"Sit." Luther reached out and tugged her wrist, pulling her smoothly to sit beside him.
Joyce looked at everyone awkwardly. Removing her mask and facing everyone as her original identity, she was not quite used to it.
When she got used to the disguise, it is easy to forget who you originally are.
Juanita began to serve soup to everyone one by one, "Today I have this pot of soup that has been simmering from morning to evening, so you must try it."
After handing everyone a bowl of soup, Karl dragged Juanita to sit down, "You should eat too. It's been a busy day. Everyone will eat on their own, so you don't have to pick up the food one by one."
Joyce tasted the soup with a white porcelain spoon and joked, "Mr. Gregory does love his wife."
