“Did it take him an hour? But Jacob said he needed until 10 pm at least.”

“Such an impressive performance. Whose child was that?”

“You should’ve seen the faces of those shareholders who tried to stop the boy.”

Meanwhile, by the time the father and son arrived on Muse Peninsula, it was already six in the evening.At this time, Olivia was seen to be very busy with cooking, wishing she had more than two hands.Nevertheless, she finally saw the meaning of cooking for the first time. Fortunately, I still had Kate tohelp me in the morning, but when it came to the afternoon, I had to do it all myself because everyoneelse was sleeping. The kitchen was in a mess as she had never been swamped with the preparation allby herself. While her hair appeared to be unkempt, she didn’t even pay attention to the burn mark onher hand. After quickly cleaning up the kitchen, she hurriedly got changed just when the doorbell rang.Then, she answered the door and was greeted by North and Eugene with a bottle of red wine in hishand.

“You guys are fast! I didn’t know you’d bring some wine, so I bought some ahead,” Olivia said whileEugene could tell that she was still catching her breath.

“Keep your wine. We’ll save it for next time.” Perhaps our next dinner date is already planned ahead.

“Mom, look. This is what Uncle Eugene bought you.” North handed a shoebox over to his mother, whoreceived it in surprise. “What’s this?”

“It’s a pair of shoes. You need to stop wearing high heels at home. It’s bad for your posture, plus you’renot short at all.” Eugene’s words reminded her of the moment she nearly fell down earlier in themorning. Well, that’s a ‘good’ way to lighten up a conversation! Olivia then smiled awkwardly and said,“Thank you. Please come in.”

After changing into a pair of flip-flops, Eugene excitedly shared with Olivia about what had happened.“North took less than five minutes to solve a problem that our tech department had been spendinghours on. He did an amazing job!” However, Olivia wasn’t surprised by that. “There is usually nothinghe can’t sort out.” Upon hearing her reply, Eugene couldn’t help but wonder how she was able to teachher child so well, even though she wasn’t with him most of the time. “It’s all thanks to the way youeducated him!”

“Well, I’m not going to claim credit for this one because it was my senior who discovered his talent andsubsequently found him a tutor. Surprisingly, he’s improved a lot over time,” Olivia answered.

It’s that senior again?! Eugene felt a little jealous, as he had seemingly grown tired of hearing hermentioning him. “Yeah, your kid is smart indeed.”

After that, they entered the dining area and were soon greeted by a table full of dishes, with somelooking burnt while the others appearing bland. At the sight of that, Eugene couldn’t help but chuckle,certain that it was Olivia who cooked them all. In the meantime, Olivia awkwardly scratched her headand said, “This is my first time cooking. So, I don’t know how it’ll taste, but please… help yourself.”Eugene nodded and sat down while North came closer and looked at those dishes with his eyes lit up.“Mom, did you make all this?”

Olivia nodded in response, whereupon her son complimented her, “You’re awesome, Mom!” Soon,Olivia raised her eyebrows at North. “Here is your little dish.” Despite the havoc she had throughout theafternoon, Olivia still felt glad and accomplished for preparing every single dish on the table.Meanwhile, Eugene, who was sitting aside and watching them, was touched and moved by theirheartwarming interaction, feeling a strong sense of belonging. North is such a good boy, even knowinghow to make his mom happy.

After that, Eugene poured some red wine for the lady and himself. On the other hand, as Oliviawatched the red wine worth six figures being poured into the wine glasses, she felt a little awkwardbecause she wasn’t sure whether the food would compliment the wine. Oh dear! Is the wine going tobe wasted if he is not satisfied with the meal?
