“Is there anything you need me to bring back?” Lilian asked Serenity.
Serenity shook her head. “I just got here today; there’s nothing to bring back.”
Once Zachary came to pick her and Sonny up, she would buy some gifts for her in-laws.
Lilian smiled. “Yes, you just arrived today. Alright, I’ve finished packing. Let’s go downstairs for dinner, and after that, I’ll be leaving.”
Jane also said to Serenity, “Let’s go downstairs. Tim is cooking for us, so let’s stay and enjoy a meal with Lilian.”
The people in the Johnson family were very welcoming. They often gathered together to eat.
No matter which household the younger generation visited, they never had to worry about being hungry.
This atmosphere was similar to that of the York family.
Lilian remarked, “He’s not a master chef. If he’s cooking, it’ll just be a few home-cooked dishes. He won’t be changing the menu.”
“The dishes he cooks are all your favorites. Of course, he won’t change the menu. If he does, you’ll have to worry about whether he’s seeing someone else,” Jane teased.
The three women talked and laughed as they walked out.
Lilian was confident. “Even if Tim were given the courage of a god, he wouldn’t dare to mess around outside. Besides, with such an excellent and beautiful wife like me, why would he look at anyone else?”
If Tim ever dared to cheat, she’d castrate him in a minute, making him a eunuch, unable to touch another woman for the rest of his life.
She often said that her scalpel was very powerful. With just a flick, she could ruin a man.
Jane thought of her brother-in-law, Tim, who couldn’t stand up to Lilian, and covered her mouth, laughing quietly.
Serenity added, “He won’t cheat on you. The way he looks at you is so intense that we, as bystanders, feel awkward staying too long. We always feel like we’re super bright light bulbs.”
After dinner, Tim escorted Lilian out.
Everyone else was considerate and didn’t follow, allowing the young couple some private time to express their reluctance to part.
“Come back early if you don’t have anything important to do,” Tim urged.
Tim wanted to go with Lilian, but she wouldn’t let him.
Lilian said he couldn’t treat patients, and he couldn’t fight like she could, so why would he follow her? Was he expecting her to protect him?
Tim was at a loss for words. He couldn’t win against his wife in an argument. He wasn’t so helpless that he needed her protection; he just didn’t want to be apart from her. She was much busier than he was.
