My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 2627

“Just call me Zach, Ava.”

“Very well then, Zach.” Ava didn’t like honoraries either.

“He’ll be having dinner with us tonight,” said Shirley.

“Oh, good. I can show off my cooking.” Happily, Ava went into the kitchen to work. Shirley wanted to help, but Ava kicked her out. “Go and accompany my future grandson-in-law.” That was what she said.

Shirley covered her mouth and came back out, smiling. She saw Zacharias looking at the photos around the house. Ava’s house had an Eastern design. Standing in this house, Zacharias looked a little different than he usually was. Shirley came up to him and held his arm.

Zacharias smiled. “So, when are your parents coming back for Christmas?”

Oh, he wants to meet my parents. Shirley pursed her lips and shook her head. “No idea. They haven’t called me yet.”

She’s trying to run away. Zacharias put an arm around Shirley’s shoulder. “Why don’t I invite your family to celebrate Christmas at my place this year?”

Shirley’s eyes went wide. “Really?”

“Yes. Should be more fun celebrating Christmas with two families around,” said Zacharias.

Oh, right. There’s only him, his dad, and Tony celebrating Christmas anyway. It’s a little quiet. Shirley nodded. “Sure. We’ll celebrate Christmas together.” Shirley then helped Ava wash the greens and set up the table.

Zacharias fell in love with Shirley more, seeing her working hard.

Ava made a five-course meal. Homemade food, of course. It felt like home having dinner here. Zacharias felt nostalgic. It had been too long since he had homemade food. Ever since his mother’s passing, that household didn’t feel like home. Back when he was a teenager, his father hired the best servants around to cook for him, but the food never tasted like home. Now, he found that taste again.
