“I know…” Snow Cecy actually felt a bit sorry for Thomas Reagan. She had seen his feelings and protection for her over the years. Although she couldn’t respond to these feelings, she could do something else to make up for him.
Terrence Edmin saw through her thoughts and smiled, “Since you want to invite him, then do it! I’ll make time for it.”
“I knew you wouldn’t object…” Snow Cecy happily hugged his neck and kissed him.
This action was very pleasing to Terrence Edmin. It turned out that as long as he went along with her, she would take the initiative like this…
It seems that he will have to spoil her more in the future.
On the weekend, Snow Cecy invited Thomas Reagan to the castle.
Mrs. Edmin had not yet returned to Chris Castle, and she was a bit puzzled when she saw Snow Cecy cooking in the kitchen. “What are you preparing to do?”
“Mom, I have a friend coming over for dinner, so I’m preparing to cook some Chinese food myself…” Snow Cecy quickly explained to Mrs. Edmin with a smile.
“You still have friends in France?”
Mrs. Edmin only thought that she had a good relationship with Alice and didn’t associate with Thomas Reagan.
“He’s my good friend from many years ago, Thomas Reagan. He’s here to attend the wedding, and you should have met him before.”
“Oh, it’s him…”
Suddenly, Mrs. Edmin felt a bit unhappy, and she looked at Snow Cecy and said with emphasis, “You are already a married person now, and you should keep a distance from this kind of male friends.”
“Hmm?”
Snow Cecy didn’t expect such feudal words to come out of Mrs. Edmin’s mouth. She looked at her in shock and said, “Mom, I invited him over for dinner because he’s leaving soon and we won’t have many chances to meet in the future. Besides, he risked his life to protect me in the past, and his hand was disabled because of me…”
She wanted Mrs. Edmin to know that there was only a very pure friendship between her and Thomas Reagan.
She explained anxiously, and her eyes were a little red.
Seeing Snow Cecy’s expression, Mrs. Edmin realized that her words had been a little excessive.
“Snow, that’s not what I meant. I just thought…” She was a bit embarrassed and rubbed her nose. “Since Terrence Edmin knows, I shouldn’t say anything more. Just prepare well, and I can taste your cooking tonight too!”
“Okay.”
As Snow Cecy lowered her eyelids, she felt a bit helpless.
Thomas Reagan had come with Terrence Edmin. As soon as he stepped into the dining room, he immediately smelled the aroma and a smile appeared in his eyes. “Snow’s cooking is really good…”
“Yeah, back in China, she had a firm grip on my taste buds…” Terrence Edmin reminisced about their past life.
Snow Cecy personally brought out the soup, and when she saw the two men, a smile crept onto her face. “Hurry up and wash your hands and get ready to eat.”
“Okay.” Terrence Edmin nodded gently.
As the family sat down to eat, Mike kept pestering Terrence Edmin with questions about planets, as he had recently become extremely interested in this subject.
Alice didn’t know much about astronomy, but Terrence Edmin had studied it in college, so it was up to him to explain it to Mike…
“Mike, don’t ask Daddy these questions while we’re eating.” Snow Cecy saw that Mrs. Edmin’s expression wasn’t very good and quickly reminded Mike.
“But Mom, I just…” Mike tried to explain.
However, Snow Cecy furrowed her brow slightly. Mike didn’t want to make her angry, so he just shut up.
At this moment, Mrs. Edmin suddenly looked at Thomas Reagan and asked with a smile, “Mr. Jin, do you have a girlfriend in China?”
“No,” Thomas Reagan shook his head. “I’ve been busy with the company these years and didn’t have time for a relationship.”
“No time for a relationship, but you have time to help Snow with those troubles. The friendship between you and Snow is really deep…” Mrs. Edmin said with a strange tone.
This time, even Terrence Edmin noticed that something was off with Mrs. Edmin.
He frowned slightly and looked at Mrs. Edmin. “Mom, what are you talking about?”
“I’m just feeling emotional,” Mrs. Edmin laughed, then looked at Thomas Reagan. “Mr. Reagan, do you mind me feeling this way?”
“No, I don’t.” Thomas Reagan smiled gracefully and shook his head. “I have a good relationship not only with Snow, but also with Alice, who grew up with me as a close friend.”
“Is that so? That’s nice…” Mrs. Edmin spoke indifferently before lowering her head to continue eating.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was inexplicably awkward.
Snow Cecy began to reflect on whether inviting Thomas Reagan to dinner was right or wrong. After dinner, she and Terrence Edmin accompanied Thomas Reagan to the door.
“You don’t have to escort me, Snow. Now that I see you living a happy life, I can leave at ease,” Thomas Reagan stood at the door with a smile and looked at Snow Cecy. “I believe Terrence Edmin will bring you a lifetime of happiness.”
“I hope you will be happy too,” Snow Cecy and Terrence Edmin walked hand in hand. She leaned on his shoulder and looked at Thomas Reagan, whispering, “I hope to hear good news from you soon.”
“I’ll do my best.” Thomas Reagan nodded before getting into the car.
He looked at the couple standing outside the door through the car window.
A long time ago, he had always dreamt of this scene, but the person standing next to Snow Cecy was not Terrence Edmin, but him. However, now these two people standing together seemed to be a perfect match.
Thomas Reagan knew that he could never replace Terrence Edmin in Snow Cecy’s heart.
After seeing Thomas Reagan off, Snow Cecy turned around and prepared to go back to her room to rest.
At this moment, Terrence Edmin took Snow Cecy’s arm and brought her into his embrace. He frowned slightly and asked her, “What’s going on between you and my mother? It seems like there’s some tension.”
“It’s not tension. Your mother is just a little angry. She probably thinks I shouldn’t be so close to male friends,” Snow Cecy smiled helplessly. “Luckily, she didn’t say anything more outrageous in front of Thomas. Otherwise, with his personality, he would definitely keep his distance from me in the future.”
“That’s just how she is. We finally had a few peaceful days, but now she’s causing trouble again,” Terrence Edmin sighed.
“Don’t say that. She’s just worried about you,” Snow Cecy wasn’t too upset.
She looked at Terrence Edmin seriously and said, “As long as you believe me and don’t suspect all these messy things, I won’t be upset!”
“If you really had something with him, why would it be my turn?” Terrence Edmin had 100% trust in Snow Cecy and didn’t think she would have any thoughts beyond friendship with Thomas Reagan.
He wrapped his arms around her waist and leaned closer to her, rubbing his nose against hers. “I can’t bear to see you treated unfairly like this. Even if it’s my mother, she can’t insult you like this.”
“Why do you keep saying such extreme things? How is this even an insult…” Snow Cecy didn’t want Terrence Edmin to clash with Mrs. Edmin. She frowned and looked at him.
