He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 942

Scarlett had genuinely believed that such domestic bliss would never be in the cards for her. She never expected that being with Julian would also mean gaining a mother-in-law who was this warm, generous, and devoted.

Overwhelmed, she said softly, "Thank you, Elara. This... this is way too much. Julian and I could never finish all this food."

Elara smiled warmly and patted her hand. "You're married to my son now. No more 'Elara.' From today on, it's 'Mom.' Don't you dare switch back."

Blushing slightly, Scarlett murmured, "Okay... Mom."

Elara's eyes crinkled with absolute delight. "That's my girl! You call me Mom, and I promise I will never let you down. Now that you and Julian are officially married, my biggest worry is gone. Scarlett, I swear to you, I will treat you like my own flesh and blood—maybe even better. Come on, let's go hit the shops. Your closets here are way too empty. I'm taking you on a shopping spree."

Before Scarlett could process the heartfelt declaration, Elara linked their arms and whisked her out the door.

At the upscale mall, Scarlett felt entirely out of her element. She had spent her whole life relying only on herself. Having someone eagerly swipe a black card for her, urging her to try on endless outfits, felt surreal. But feeling Elara’s genuine joy in spoiling her, Scarlett gradually let her guard down and allowed herself to enjoy the moment.
