Chapter 368 Eating Quiche Together
Behind Skyler, Caleb looked at Miguel as they smiled helplessly. Then, they walked up and greeted, “Mr. Crayson, Mr. and Mrs. Murphy, Merry Christmas.” They said simultaneously.
“Yes, Merry Christmas!” Tony was hospitable, and he quickly put them in their seats. “Come on, have a seat. We haven’t had breakfast yet. Let’s eat together.”
Every Christmas, the family would bake a lot of quiche, so there was no need to worry about not having enough of them.
When Daniella heard Tony say that, she could only comply. “Let’s have a seat. There’s still quiche in the kitchen.”
“Come on, take a seat. It’s more lively this way.”
Crayson urged the visitors to take a seat too.
Veronica glanced at Matthew. She saw he kept talking to Crayson and Tony, completely ignoring her.
Matthew’s easy-going appearance was completely different from his usual noble self. He looked friendlier this way.
“Then, we won’t hold back.” Skyler laughed. He then moved a chair and sat down without a second thought.
Caleb nodded at Veronica. “Merry Christmas.”
“Merry Christmas.” Miguel bowed at her.
No one could be rude to someone polite.
So, Veronica didn’t embarrass them. She just nodded and smiled. “Merry Christmas. Please have a seat. I’ll bake more quiche for you.”
“Okay. Roni—Veronica, Mrs. Murphy’s quiche is delicious. It tastes like the ones from my childhood. Can you ask her to make more?”
Skyler was outgoing. However, he could only call her Roni in private and not in public.
As soon as Skyler finished speaking, Matthew, who was sitting next to him, silently raised his foot and stepped on Skylar’s foot to make him restrain himself.
“Ah!”
Skyler gasped as his face distorted. Thereafter, he found everyone’s eyes were on him.
He immediately laughed. “Ha! The quiche is so delicious. Mrs. Murphy’s baking skills are absolutely amazing!”
That was a good save.
Crayson and Tony laughed heartily.
“You can eat more if you like it. Daniella has pre-baked many crusts,” Tony said as he greeted Caleb and Miguel. “Come on in. Just treat this place as your home. Don’t be a stranger.”
“Okay, Mr. Murphy.”
“Okay.”
Caleb and Miguel sat down as well, and the men sat at a table to chat and eat. The atmosphere was lively and harmonious.
Veronica stopped before entering the kitchen and looked at the men in the living room. Then, she touched her head and shook it helplessly.
When she was sighing, Daniella walked out of the kitchen. Daniella held Veronica with a cold hand and dragged her into the kitchen. Then, the former asked quietly, “Roni, didn’t you say they left? Why are they here now?”
“I thought they were gone. It seems they slept in the car yesterday.” Veronica made a guess.
“So, it turns out that Kyoland’s car at the roadside is theirs!” After finding out the answer, Daniella sighed and asked, “What will you do now? I didn’t manage to tell your dad about them. I didn’t know he couldn’t take a hint and instead, he invited them in.”
“It’s fine. It’s Christmas and they slept outdoors for a night. It would not be appropriate to drive them away,” Veronica said.
“That’s true.” Daniella agreed with Veronica and pointed at the counter to where another freshly baked quiche was. “Take that quiche to the living room. I’ll bake more soon. It’s still not enough for everyone.”
“Okay. Mom, you’re doing great.”
Veronica walked up to Daniella and hugged her, then kissed her on the cheek mischievously.
