"We’re coming." Hearing this, Violet immediately shouted to the room, and then took Stanley's hand, "Let's go. My mom is calling us."
Stanley nodded slightly. He said nothing, and followed her in.
After entering, Stanley remembered Fraser's words, and then he handed a few gift bags to Lily, "Ms. Smith, I hope you like them."
Looking at the bags with luxury brands, Lily was startled for a moment. Then her face eased a lot. She reached out to take the bags, "Alright. Thank you."
Seeing her accept the gifts, Stanley felt a little relieved.
Accepting the gifts meant that she had accepted him as her future son-in-law, right?
"Stanley, have a seat." Seeing Stanley still standing, Violet pulled away a chair for him.
Stanley gave a hmm and sat down.
Violet sat down beside him, "Mom, have you ordered the food?"
"No. I was waiting for you guys."
With that said, Lily passed the menu to Violet.
Violet opened the menu. She first ordered a few dishes that Stanley and the two children loved, then ordered a few other dishes, and closed the menu.
When Lily saw this, she raised her eyebrows, "Done? Don't let Stanley have a look?"
"I have ordered what he likes to eat." Violet replied with a smile.
Stanley smiled.
Lily curled her lips, "How long have you been together? You know him so clearly? You even know what he likes to eat?"
Violet tucked her hair, "What Stanley likes is very few. It's easy to remember."
"Then what about you?" Lily looked at Stanley, "Violet understands you so clearly, and she also remembers your preferences. How much do you know about Violet, and how many do you know about her preferences?"
"Mom, why are you asking about this?" Violet pulled Lily and said, wanting to skip this topic.
However, Lily refused to agree and threw Violet’s hand away, "I want to know whether he really loves you. When two people are together, you can’t just give but don’t get anything. You know him, and he also has to know you. This is mutual. Otherwise, your relationship will no longer be equal, understand?"
"I..." Violet moved her lips, and suddenly had nothing to say. She lowered her head.
She understood it.
An unequal love relationship was deformed and would not last long.
"So, you must answer me." Lily turned her gaze to Stanley again, "I want to know how much you love Violet."
Violet also looked at Stanley, with expectations and worries in her eyes.
She expected him to answer.
She was also worried that he could not answer.
Seeing Violet's inner anxiety, Stanley slightly curled his lips. Then he raised his hand and put it on top of her head, then slowly told them his understanding for her and her preferences one by one.
While he was saying, Violet's eyes widened and Lily blinked in surprise.
He actually really knew it and he really said it out!
What made Violet most excited and happy was that there were some preferences that she didn't even notice, and there were some small movements that she didn't even know, but he was able to notice.
"Well, well." Hearing Stanley saying so much, Lily quickly raised her hand to stop, "You have said enough. I believe you really love Violet. But!"
Then the atmosphere in the room was tightened again.
Even the two children felt it and looked up at the three adults.
"Mom, but what?" Violet grabbed Stanley's hand.
Stanley patted the back of her hand, "Don't worry. Let Ms. Smith finish it."
