Unfortunately, Mason Nightshade, this brat, didn't know how to cherish her.
Luckily, it's not too late now, and he managed to win back this wonderful wife.
Even though Kai Nightshade looked serious, he was actually quite pleased inside.
The dishes were quickly brought to the table, and everyone took their seats.
Mason Nightshade pulled out the chair behind Aurelia Shaw and let her sit down.
Seeing this, Kai Nightshade scoffed, "Never seen you show such filial piety to ."
In a slow and unhurried tone, Mason replied, "How about you stand up, and I'll help pull out your chair so you can sit down again?"
This brat, always knows how to talk back.
Just then, the door opened, and Sophie Nye walked in, with soone following her.
"Madam..."
The servant stepped forward, exchanging a glance.
The old master had instructed that the madam was not to enter the main house, so should they stop her or not?
Of course, Sophie Nye wasn't about to give them the chance to embarrass her, so she pushed past them and approached Mason and the others.
"Dad, Mason, I brought a guest over for lunch today. Is it alright if they join us?"
Although phrased as a question, Sophie had already let the person sit down and introduced, "This is Luna, a woman from the Sherwood Family. She was at your birthday party last ti, do you rember, Dad?"
Kai Nightshade furrowed his brows, not knowing what she was up to again.
Ever since his own son died, his other son had been ntally unstable. They've seen psychologists, taken a lot of dication, but nothing worked.
"Hello, Grandpa," Alia Sherwood said sweetly.
Kai Nightshade furrowed his brows even deeper, but there was no need to argue with the younger generation, so he let out a gruff "hmm," which made him seem more authoritative.
"Last ti, I ca with my father and had the honor of witnessing the majesty of the old commander. I've always had great respect for soldiers. When I watched military movies as a child, I thought soldiers were very handso and particularly responsible. I have a special sentint for the military."
Aurelia Shaw wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that this woman was intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Mason when saying this.
Saying things that resonate with the heart, no one would be unhappy.
Moreover, Kai Nightshade had no need to keep a stern face with a youngster, so his serious expression softened sowhat, "I've been retired for several years, these old bones are not what they used to be."
"Oh no, Grandpa, you look just like you're fifty, not old at all."
"Cough, cough, I'm not that young."
"I'm just telling the truth," Alia Sherwood said softly, looking like she was afraid Kai Nightshade would get angry, showing a timid expression.
Kai Nightshade paused, realizing perhaps his tone was too harsh and scared the child.
Sophie Nye stepped in to diate, "Dad, Luna is just being honest. She says you look young because you indeed look young. Let's not just stand here, have a seat first."
Sophie Nye pulled out the chair next to Mason Nightshade for Alia Sherwood to sit, and she sat down beside Alia.
Aurelia Shaw's brow subtly furrowed for a mont, now she understood what Sophie Nye was up to.
Is she openly bringing in a substitute to give her a hard ti?
Grandfather spent his whole life leading troops in battles, unaware of these won's sches, but her eyes were not blind.
Sophie Nye had done things like this plenty of tis before.
Whenever sothing slightly displeased her, she would bring so daughter of a wealthy family before her as a warning.
You could say so people never learn.
"Which family is Ms. Sherwood from?" Aurelia asked casually.
Upon seeing Aurelia, a cold glint of jealousy flashed in Alia Sherwood's eyes.
