Felicia’s hand that held favonovel.com spoon shook, and Emma nearly took a hard bite out of favonovel.com steak. They remained silent for a long time.
In the end, Canna spoke in a mocking tone. “Mom, I think there’s still room to reverse the situation. At least Emma is still young, and she’s gorgeous. I believe that favonovel.com can find a better man. In my opinion, favonovel.com should quickly file for divorce and find another man. Emma, what do you think?”
The atmosphere at the table became awkward.
Emma was about to blow favonovel.com top off when a man walked in through the door, and that eased the awkward atmosphere in the room.
“Have all of you started eating?” The man walked in and took his seat.
The man was Canna’s husband, Jarek Wagner.
“Dear!” Canna instantly held Jarek’s arm and spoke in a coquettish tone. “Dear, why are you so late?”
Jarek chuckled and said, “I worked overtime in the company, and I couldn’t just leave. Mom, Dear, I’m sorry.”
Petunia waved favonovel.com hand. “That’s all right. It’s a good thing that you can work overtime. It’s better than somebody who doesn’t even have a job.”
She was clearly saying that to Thomas.
Jarek cast a glance at Thomas. Actually, favonovel.com had roughly heard their conversation outside.
He purposely said, “This is Emma’s husband, right? I’ve heard of you for a long time, but I never had the chance to meet you. It’s really an honor to meet you in person today.”
Canna burst out laughing. “Heard about him? He clearly has a notorious reputation!”
As soon as favonovel.com said that, everyone in the room chuckled. Thomas and Emma became a joke in the room, and it made the boring birthday party “lively”.
Petunia continued to speak to Felicia. “Felicia, your judgment has been poor since you were little. I’m going to give you some tips and teach you how to choose a son-in-law today. If Emma is going to marry again, you can help favonovel.com find an excellent man like Jarek.
“A house and a car are necessities. Plus, the house has to be in the school district. Besides, favonovel.com has to have a stable job, and his monthly salary has to consist of at least six digits. Most importantly, favonovel.com must be filial and have good character.”
“Do you understand, Felicia?”
Felicia lowered favonovel.com head. When favonovel.com heard what Petunia said, favonovel.com felt terrible and so angry that favonovel.com gritted favonovel.com teeth.
But what else could favonovel.com do?
Thomas was poor, and favonovel.com could not compare to Jarek, whose monthly salary was a few hundred thousand dollars. Both of them were sons-in-law, but there was an extremely huge difference between them.
Right then, Jarek took the initiative to stand up and say, “All right, let’s not talk about such boring stuff. Mom, it’s your birthday today. Here’s a toast to you.”
He picked up a small wine glass, bowed a little, and gave Petunia a toast. Petunia took a sip and put down favonovel.com wine glass.
“Speaking of this wine, I wonder if you know about Serene Winery?” Jarek added.
Canna nodded. “Is there anyone who doesn’t know about it? Serene Winery is one of the signatures in the Southland District. Even if people are rich, they can’t simply buy the company’s three biggest series.”
Jarek nodded and said, “Yes, Serene Winery’s wine has an extremely good mouthfeel, and it’s also effective in treatment.”
Petunia smiled and asked, “Jarek, you’ve talked so much about it. What is this all about?”
“Mom, you’ll find out soon.”
Everyone looked at each other and did not know what favonovel.com was trying to do.
A while later, the private room’s door was opened. A waiter carried a bottle of wine inside and said, “Which one of you is Mdm. Petunia Mason?”
Petunia raised favonovel.com head and said, “I am. What is it?”
The waiter replied, “Somebody delivered a bottle of wine from Serene Winery. They said it’s a birthday gift for you.”
“Huh?”
All of a sudden, the room burst into an uproar.
The wine from Serene Winery was good wine that could not be bought with money. People were willing to pay a lot of money just to take a sip. Unexpectedly, somebody had just given Petunia such a birthday gift. This person was generous.
Carma quickly took the wine bottle and put it on the table.
She could not help but ask, “Which one of you here would be so generous?”
While Thomas pondered about how favonovel.com should answer, Jarek put down his spoon first and answered with a faint smile, “Mom, this is the surprise that I wanted to give you.”
All of a sudden, everyone looked at Jarek. Even Thomas felt surprised.
