Rashad sat down directly opposite Cheney. 
“Uncle, you’re late.”
Cheney gave him a cold look and didn’t talk to him.
Flora said, “Cheney, I invited Rashad. I thought, we haven’t sat together for a long time. It’s good to take this opportunity to have dinner together. You won’t be angry with me without consulting you in advance, will you?”
Cheney looked at her, didn’t speak, and just nodded.
I saw two people looking at each other, I was about to sit down when I turned to Uncle Jacob. “Uncle Jacob, give me the fruit, and I’ll wash it.”
“No, Miss Krista, just sit down and have a rest. I’ll do it.”
I didn’t listen to him and followed him directly into the villa.
Cheney’s pov
In the courtyard, the three of us sat stiff. Flora looked at me for a while, and then at Rashad for a while.
After nearly three minutes, Rashad got up and said, “Let me help, too.” After saying that, he turned and went to the villa.
Flora looked at me and said, “Cheney, do you think there’s something weird about the way Rashad looks at Miss Krista?”
I looked at her and coagulated my eyebrows. “Why is it strange?”
Flora laughed mysteriously and said, “I invited Rashad to come to today’s party, but he didn’t want to. Later, I said Afra’s tutor would come, and he agreed without saying anything. This morning, too, after he came, he looked around and asked me why everyone wasn’t here. When Miss Krista came this afternoon, Rashad’s eyes lit up. Of course, this may just be my illusion. Because of Rashad in my memory, he loves to ignore women who don’t care about him, and he won’t accompany women to go shopping in supermarkets. ”
My eyes were cold and I looked inside the villa.
Flora asked with some concern, “Cheney, has something happened in my sleeping years, and why do I feel that the relationship between you and Rashad seems to be getting worse and worse?”
I took back my eyes. “I don’t care about him. The only difference is that you were in the middle before, and we didn’t want to put you in a dilemma.”
“So now… I’m awake, can you still do what you used to do for me?”
I looked at her, “Flora, I know it’s hard for you to accept the changes now, but some changes are inevitable. It’s impossible for Rashad and I to laugh and laugh like when we were young. Everyone is an adult. The way of talking and doing things should be solved using adult’s thinking.”
“Rashad is different from the Fischer family over there, you know.”
“Yes, Rashad is not as bad as those people, but he is a descendant from there. There is a saying that people are in their place and can’t help themselves, they will use them. So if I still treat Rashad as before, then people over there will definitely use my care for Rashad to deal with me. Do you think Rashad will be happy at that time? Now this is the most natural and comfortable state for me to get along with him.”
She frowned, “I really miss us in the past. At that time… you always watched me silently, and I, like a fool, chased after Rashad. Rashad worshipped you and always tried to imitate you. At that time, we were really happy.”
“People should do what they should do at what age. You should leave the things between Rashad and me in the future. No one wants you to be caught in a dilemma.”
Flora bit her lip. “Cheney, are you angry?”
I said indifferently, “No, I’m just reminding you, don’t use your time to measure us now, you don’t have to think about other things, just take good care of your body, because we are all waiting for you to stand up healthily.”
She pursed her lips and smiled at me.
Soon, in the villa, three people came out together, and Jacob held a fruit bowl in his hand.
Krista said to Jacob, “Uncle Jacob, let’s have the baking tray delivered now. It’s getting late.”
Jacob nodded. “I contacted them fifteen minutes ago, and they will send the ingredients together soon.”
She nodded, sat down in her chair, picked up a strawberry and ate it.
From the beginning to now, she didn’t even look at me.
This makes me feel very unhappy.
Flora bent over, picked up a cut pineapple and handed it to me. “Cheney, here you are.”
I didn’t eat it, I just stared at it, “I don’t want to eat, you eat it.”
At the gate, the staff of the resort brought the barbecue tools and materials.
Krista immediately got up and greeted her. Jacob also walked over together with her. After arranging the position, the staff began to make a fire.
Rashad sat with Flora and me again. To avoid this embarrassment, Rashad got up, left the villa and went out for a walk.
After the fire started, Krista began to barbecue in a proper way.
Jacob helped and couldn’t help admiring, “Madam, you’re really good at this.”
Krista sipped her lips and smiled. “If I hadn’t been an engineer, I would probably have opened my own barbecue restaurant to sell barbecues.”
Jacob laughs. “There must be a lot of guests.”
Krista smiled. “Uncle Jacob, you really embarrassed me.”
Looking at them talking and laughing, I approached and looked cold.
Jacob was busy then when he saw me, he said, “Young master, why did you come over, it’s smoky in here.”
“Flora said she wanted to go to the bathroom.”
Jacob hurriedly put down the string in his hand. “Then I’ll take her.” He then pushes Flora into the villa.
I went to Krista’s side and put my hand around her waist.
She looked in the direction of the villa and flashed to the side. “Are you not afraid of being seen?”
I encircled her directly in my arms and bowed my head and kissed her.
She turned her head. “Cheney, can you restrain yourself?”
I let go of her. “Did you just go out with Rashad and just bought something?”
“What do you think?” She frowned. “Cheney, don’t think about what you have or don’t have. I’m not out for sale. I won’t see a man and rush forward.”
I hugged, “When you just came in, the atmosphere was good.”
