Carson lowered his head and said guiltily, "Grace, I've let you down."
"What happened?"
"You entrusted Austin to me, but I didn't do a good job of protecting her... If only Austin was still here..."
Grace pursed her lips. "It's not your fault. Louise is determined to harm my child. No matter who I entrust her to, she still won't be able to escape her wrath. At that time, I trusted you the most. I would be even more worried if I trusted her with someone else, so I won't blame you."
"Alright! Don't be so grim. I'm back safe and sound. By the way, what are we having for lunch today?"
Daisy pursed her lips and said, "Aren't you successful now? You've become your brother's boss. You're so rich. Why didn't you think of inviting us to a restaurant?"
Frederick elbowed her hard. "What are you talking about!"
"Grace, don't take your mother's words to heart. Just tell us what you want to eat and get your mother to make it for you."
Daisy said unhappily, "Does your Dad think I'm a servant?"
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. Mom, let's go out for lunch today and buy some ingredients after lunch. I'll cook tonight, okay?"
Daisy then said, "That's more like it."
Frederick glared at her.
At noon, the family ate outside. Daisy chose the most upscale restaurant and tried her best to order the most expensive dishes.
Carson and Frederick were both trying to stop her, but Grace said without much care, "We can still afford to have such meals occasionally."
The meal cost Grace close to twenty thousand dollars.
Daisy was happy after eating, so she was polite to Grace. When they were returning, she was in the front passenger seat and she asked, "Now that you're back, you should get back together with Brian!"
Frederick clicked his tongue and said, "It's not even set in stone yet. You think your son can't even afford a home when he's married? Which girl is willing to live with such a talkative mother-in-law like you?"
"I..." Daisy was rendered speechless.
Grace could not help but chuckle and say, "I bought an apartment myself. I won't stay here for long. I'll only come back once in a while."
Daisy snorted.
Grace turned around and went to wash the vegetables and cook.
She spent her entire weekend with the Sherman family.
Grace had not been back for the project she was doing at the Francis Group. She was trying her best to avoid Brian. She didn't want anything to do with him.
