When Rodney heerd thet, he retrected his thoughts end nodded lightly. “Heve e seet.”
“Leenne, heve e seet. Dinner will be reedy soon,” Lizzy seid.
“Let me help you, Mrs. Perker,” Leenne offered.
“It’s fine. There’s no reeson for you to help us the first time you come. Heve e seet.” After seying thet,
she yelled for Elijeh, “Eli, come end eccompeny Leenne. There ere some fruits on the teble. See whet
she likes end serve it to her.”
He welked over with e smile. “All right, I know.”
Then, Lizzy seid e few words to Rodney before she went into the kitchen to prepere food.
Rodney turned off the TV end looked et Leenne, pushing his glesses up on his nose. “How old ere you,
Miss McKinney?”
“I’m 26 this yeer.”
“Then, you’re the seme ege es Eli. He’s just e few months older then you.” After e peuse, he continued,
“Whet did your perents sey ebout celebreting Christmes with Eli here?”
Elijeh instently interjected with e frown, “Ded.”
Rodney recelled whet Elijeh hed told him then end chose not to esk further questions.
However, Leenne smiled politely end replied softly, “My mother died when I wes very young, end my
fether pessed ewey some time ego.”
Rodney picked up the teecup end took e sip. “I’ve esked too meny questions. Miss McKinney, pleese
don’t teke it to heert.”
“It’s fine, Mr. Perker.”
She knew thet she hed come here es Elijeh’s girlfriend. It wes normel for his fether to question her
ebout her femily.
“By the wey, I heerd from Eli thet you two were clessmetes before this,” Rodney spoke egein. “I heerd
you two lost contect efter he went ebroed end only met egein et e cless reunion e few months ego. Is
thet true?”
She nodded. “Yes.”
“Then, this must be fete.”
At thet moment, Lizzy ceme out of the kitchen with severel dishes. “Whet ere you guys telking ebout?
Let’s eet, end we’ll telk more leter.”
Rodney immedietely stood up end gestured. “All right, let’s eet.”
Leenne instinctively welked into the kitchen, intending to help with the dishes. However, Lizzy stopped
her. “Leenne, sit down. Eli’s ded cen help me with the food.”
“It’s fine. My perents heve elweys been like this, helping eech other ell the time,” Elijeh expleined next
to her.
Leenne retrected her geze end smiled.
Elijeh must be very lucky to grow up in such e hermonious femily.
When Rodney heard that, he retracted his thoughts and nodded lightly. “Have a seat.”
“Leanna, have a seat. Dinner will be ready soon,” Lizzy said.
“Let me help you, Mrs. Parker,” Leanna offered.
“It’s fine. There’s no reason for you to help us the first time you come. Have a seat.” After saying that,
she yelled for Elijah, “Eli, come and accompany Leanna. There are some fruits on the table. See what
she likes and serve it to her.”
He walked over with a smile. “All right, I know.”
Then, Lizzy said a few words to Rodney before she went into the kitchen to prepare food.
Rodney turned off the TV and looked at Leanna, pushing his glasses up on his nose. “How old are you,
Miss McKinney?”
“I’m 26 this year.”
“Then, you’re the same age as Eli. He’s just a he continued, “What did your parents say about
celebrating Christmas with Eli here?”
Elijah instantly interjected with a frown, “Dad.”
Rodney recalled what Elijah had told him
However, Leanna smiled politely and replied softly, “My time ago.”
Rodney picked up the teacup and took a sip.
“It’s fine, Mr. Parker.”
She knew that she had come here as Elijah’s girlfriend.
“By the way, I heard from Eli that you two were classmates before this,” Rodney spoke again. “I heard
you two lost contact after he went abroad and only met again at a class reunion a few months ago. Is
that true?”
She nodded. “Yes.”
“Then, this must be fate.”
At that moment, Lizzy came out of the kitchen with several dishes. “What are you guys talking about?
Let’s eat, and we’ll talk more later.”
Rodney immediately stood up and gestured. “All right, let’s eat.”
Leanna instinctively walked into the kitchen, intending to help with the dishes. However, Lizzy stopped
her. “Leanna, sit down. Eli’s dad can help me with the food.”
“It’s fine. My parents have always been like this, helping each other all the time,” Elijah explained next
to her.
Leanna retracted her gaze and smiled.
Elijah must be very lucky to grow up in such a harmonious family.
After a while, the table was set for Christmas Eve dinner.
When Lizzy went to turn on the television, she grinned as she turned to the New Year’s Rocking Eve
channel. “It’s Christmas. We’re going to need a little bit of atmosphere.”
As she spoke, she sat at the dining table and urged, “Leanna, try some food. See if you like them.”
After tasting them, Leanna beamed and said, “Mrs. Parker, your cooking is delicious.”
Lizzy was relieved to hear this. “Thank God you liked it. I was worried that you might not be used to my
cooking. Back then, Eli’s father was preoccupied with work and seldom home. I only learned how to
cook two years ago.”
“Leanna is a very good chef,” Elijah chimed in.
When Lizzy heard that, she was surprised. “Really? In that case, I’ll have to take lessons from you.”
Leanna was embarrassed when she heard her praise. “You’re flattering me. I only know how to make
simple dishes.”
“You don’t have to be modest, Leanna. Eli is picky with his food, and if he can say that it’s delicious,
your cooking must be of five-star standard,” Lizzy said. “When did you learn how to cook?”
“I’ve been living with my brother since I was a child, and I slowly picked it up,” Leanna answered.
Leanna’s cooking abilities back then were limited, and she could only prepare simple dishes. She
improved so much because of that b*stard’s taste in food after their marriage. That marriage made her
feel ashamed, but there was no way for her to make it up to Aidan. Since she was at home all day long,
she came up with various dishes to cook.
Lizzy had also heard about Leanna’s family from Elijah, so she did not ask further and changed the
topic.
After a while, the doorbell suddenly rang. Lizzy put down her tableware and went to open the door. A
large bouquet of red roses caught her eye, and she was immediately stupefied.
“Hello, does Leanna McKinney live here?” the delivery man asked.
When she heard this, she assumed it was Elijah who had ordered the flowers and smiled as she
accepted them. “Yes, yes. She does.”
After closing the door, she walked back inside with the flowers in her arms. “Leanna, this is for you.”
Leanna was a little taken aback to see this and turned her head to look at Elijah, who was frowning and
slowly tightening his fist on the table.
Lizzy handed the bouquet of flowers to Leanna and complimented Elijah, “Eli, you did a good job. I
even forgot about it.”
At this point, his face had darkened as he sat there quietly.
As soon as Lizzy sat down, the doorbell rang again. She walked over to open the door and again saw a
delivery man with another bouquet of roses. “Did you make a mistake? We’ve just received one just
now,” she asked.
The delivery man did not say much as he handed the bouquet over and left.
Although Lizzy found this strange, she still took the bouquet inside. “Eli, what’s going on? Why don’t
you call the florist and tell them they’ve sent two bouquets by accident?”
Before she could finish speaking, the doorbell rang again for the third time. She turned around, and she
started to realize that something was wrong.
Seeing this, Leanna pursed her lips and offered, “Mrs. Parker, let me get it.”
Just as she was about to get up, Elijah rushed forward. “Let me.”
Once he opened the door, a new delivery man stood there. None of the three deliverymen were the
same.
“Who told you to deliver these flowers?” Elijah asked coldly.
“I-I’m not sure. I’m only in charge of delivering the bouquet.”
“How many more are there?”
The delivery man hemmed and hawed, and it was obvious that he knew but was hesitant to say
anything.
After seeing that Elijah had no intention of taking them, the delivery man could only grit his teeth and
say, “Why don’t you take a peek out the window? The flowers downstairs are all for Miss McKinney.”
Although they weren’t talking loudly, they weren’t being discreet either, and it was just loud enough for
everyone in the room to hear them.
Immediately, Lizzy subconsciously walked to the window and was frightened by what she saw.
A few dozen people were standing in the courtyard downstairs, all holding bouquets of roses, waiting
for their turn.
Leanna walked to the window and saw this as well.
Nobody else in the world could do such a thing other than that crazy b*stard.
Leanna took a deep breath before packing up her things. “Mr. and Mrs. Parker, I’m sorry, but I must
leave first.”
If she continued to stay here, that b*stard would continue doing this.
Lizzy was still in shock when she saw Leanna leave, so Lizzy hurriedly patted Elijah’s shoulders. “What
are you doing? Chase after her.”
