The next day, when the warm sunlight poured into the room, Martha got up and woke up Jimmy who was still sleeping.
Jimmy got up rubbing his sleepy eyes and gave a big smile to Martha.
"Good morning, Mommy."
"Go wash up, then we'll go to the restaurant together."
Martha said softly and began to straighten the covers.
Jimmy nodded and headed for the bathroom.
Soon, the two of them were packed and ready to go out, and as soon as they opened the door to their room they saw an unexpected man standing outside the door.
Stefan's eyes were deep as he looked at them both, with a heavy guilt on his face.
"Want to join us for breakfast?"
He stood at the door very early just to have breakfast with them.
What Rupert could do, he could also do.
He thought of this, the hand on his side tightened and involuntarily perspired.
Martha was slightly stunned, and then she pulled Jimmy and ignored Stefan and left the doorway.
Jimmy didn't look at Stefan either, but just held his mommy's hand tightly and walked straight towards the restaurant.
When he saw that the mother and son were ignoring him, he was not discouraged and followed them to the restaurant.
It didn't take long for the three of them to arrive at the restaurant.
As soon as Stefan walked into the restaurant, he saw Rupert sitting at a table in the middle, which was filled with breakfast.
Jimmy pulled his mommy towards Uncle Rupert, and gave the latter a big smile.
"Good morning, Uncle Rupert."
"Good morning, Jimmy."
Rupert smiled and greeted Jimmy, the smile on his lips dissipated a little after he saw Stefan.
He could be sure that Martha would not forgive Stefan now. Yet having this man around could still influence Martha's decision in the end.
Stefan saw the mother and son walk towards Rupert and sit next to the latter. He immediately followed and sat down together.
In this way, four of them sat at the same table, while Eden, who came later, sat at another table to the side.
He looked at this intriguing scene and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
If Stefan had known this earlier, Stefan would not have disobeyed his advice at that time.
Martha saw Rupert handing the porridge to her and said with a smile, "Enjoy your breakfast too."
Rupert smiled, reaching over a stack of buns, "The buns here also taste good, you try them."
Jimmy heard this and said snidely, "Can't Uncle Rupert see that I am here too? How come you just give Mommy something to eat?"
Rupert looked at Jimmy dotingly and directly gave the latter a bun.
"Jimmy, eat quickly. Eat more to grow taller."
"Okay."
Jimmy smiled and responded, and ate with the milk in front of him.
The three of them were talking and laughing, like a family, all deliberately ignoring Stefan's presence.
Stefan was no longer as cranky as before, but was eating patiently, his deep eyes never leaving Martha for a moment.
But Martha did not look at him from the beginning to the end.
He felt bad, but his face remained calm.
This was what he learned yesterday in the comment section. 'As long as he can get Martha back, he can do anything.'
Just at this time, Rupert's gentle voice rang out again, interrupting Stefan's thoughts.
