Julia urged them to have some alone time together. She pushed Nina into the kitchen.

At this moment, Nash didn’t stop his hands, making sure all the ingredients were thoroughly cleaned. In her memory, Nash wasn’t someone who would do these things. “Why did you come?”

Nash said, “You didn’t answer my calls, so

naturally, I had to come and ask Mom where you went.”

Nina washed the vegetables together with him. “I remember you never used to do these things.”

Nash turned his head with a hint of teasing. “I’m trying to please my mother-in-law.”

“Stop it.”

“Why didn’t you answer my calls?” Nash asked again.

Nina paused. “I was afraid of disturbing you and Miranda.”

Nash laughed.

Nina asked, “What are you laughing at?” “Jealous?”

Nina denied, “No, it’s not the first or second time. If I get jealous every time, I’d be upset all the time.”

Nash didn’t say anything. He just noticed some water splashed on her face. Nina was about to wipe it with her sleeve, but Nash stopped her hand, wiped his own hand clean, and then took a tissue to wipe her face.

Feeling his attentive care, she gazed at him.

intently. He was very focused, and at this moment, very gentle, as if she had seen the shadow of that young boy again from him.

“Be careful,” Nash’s magnetic voice said softly. You better stop. Don’t get yourself dirty.”

He took the vegetables she had cleaned from her hands. Julia watched from outside, seeing the loving couple, then looked back at Zion. “Zion, come and see, I told you our daughter is living happily. No need to worry too much. Nash treats. her so well.”

Zion shrugged, “What if he’s just pretending? Who knows if he bullies our daughter behind our backs?” “You’re overthinking,” Julia said, “If Nash didn’t like our daughter, why would he marry her?”

Zion pursed his lips slightly and gave a cold snort, How many times have you seen this scene after they got married? Don’t forget what our daughter said before. She can’t tell anyone about their relationship. What family would have such a condition? I think there’s still room for observation!

This son-in-law came too suddenly. Although he had given their family a lot of help. Zion still felt

something was amiss.

He knew Nina’s temperament very well; even if she wasn’t happy, she wouldn’t tell them. She only shared good news, not worries. Of course, he wanted his daughter to be happy, but truly happy.

Julia went to cook. Nina sat outside, making tea for Zion. At that moment, the doorbell rang.

Nina said, “I’ll go open the door.” She hurried to the door and was surprised to see Scott standing there. “Scott?”

Scott smiled, “Did I disturb you?”

“How could you? Come in quickly,” Nina hadn’t expected him to come to their house.

Scott carried many gifts in his hands and hurriedly called out, “Mr. and Mrs. Walker.”

Julia looked at Scott, staring at him several times without recognizing him. Zion, on the other hand, was very happy to see Scott.

He stood up and walked over, “Oh, isn’t this Scott? It’s been many years. When did you come back to the country?”

“I just returned not long ago. I’ve already met with Nina and came to see you guys. I hope it’s not inconvenient,” Scott said.

Julia added, “So it’s Scott. You used to live on the next street. It’s been so many years. Scott, you’ve become much more handsome!”

“Thank you for the compliment, Mrs. Walker,”

Scott said with a pleasant expression.

However, he noticed Nash sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, his sharp eyes fixed on him.
