    Chapter: 1271


    “Brian, is ita business dinner? Where are you?” Noemi persisted.


    A flicker of impatience shed across Brian’s eyes.


    His mother must have enlisted Selina to apany him.


    “Mom, don’t worry about me. If that’s all you want, I''ll hang up. Bye,”


    Brian uttered, intending to end the call.


    However, as he nced at the ginger in his hand, an instinctive query escaped his lips. “By the way, Mom, do you happen to


    know the proper proportions of ginger and brown sugar for ginger soup with brown sugar?”


    Noemi’s displeasure grew when Brian showed haste in ending the call.


    His additional question caught her off guard.


    “What''s with the sudden interest?” she inquired, her tone tinged with surprise.


    Regret immediately washed over Brian. Why had he sought his mother’s advice?


    “It''s nothing, Mom. | have to hang up.”


    “Wait! Is it for Rosalynn?” Noemi’s voice now carried a tone of fury.


    “Brian, you are a man destined for greatness. How noble you are! Don’t you realize that a gentleman should steer clear of the


    kitchen? How dare you attempt to make ginger soup for a woman?”


    Brian let out a sigh. “Mom, | was just asking casually. Bye.”


    As he ended the call, Noemi continued to call out his name on the other end. Frustrated by his abrupt hang-up, she angrily


    tossed the phone aside. It rebounded off the sofa and fell to the floor


    Observing themotion, Selina approached and retrieved the phone, offering it to Noemi. “What’s wrong? Why are you so


    upset?”


    Noemi’s eyes burned with anger. “My own son didn’te to have dinner with me, yet he’s busy cooking ginger soup for


    Rosalynn. He’s an influential man! How did he be so humble?”


    A flicker of jealousy shed in Selina’s eyes


    “Deanna and | are ustomed to it. We witnessed firsthand how Brian cared for Rosalynn during dinner. It seemed Like


    Rosalynn took it all for granted and didn’t appreciate Brian at all. Isn’t that right, Deanna?”


    Witnessing the intense scrutiny directed towards her, Deanna blinked and offered a nod of acknowledgment.This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Noemi’s anger was unabated. “Rosalynn is audacious! Ever since Brian was a child, | never had him engage in such menial


    tasks. Even after their marriage, she shouldn''t be treating my son as herckey.”


    Deanna murmured, her lips barely moving, “It doesn’t matter. If he’s willing to do these things for her, it indicates that they have a


    strong rtionship.”
