Shattered Vows: Call Me Auntie Now novel Chapter 360

"I'll only have peace of mind when you and Quinn are doing well."

Prompted by his grandmother's scolding, Dante finally realized a glaring issue: Leo was his son, yet the boy felt no connection to him. Blood was thicker than water, and going forward, he really needed to put more effort into his child.

As soon as they saw her enter, they smiled and said, "Mrs. Hayes, please go back outside and relax. The old madam specifically ordered us not to let you lift a finger."

"It's fine. I don't have anything else to do anyway."

With that, she grabbed a stool and sat off to the side, helping them sort the vegetables.

The chicken soup had been simmering for hours, and the ladies had also prepared zucchini with scrambled eggs, spicy garlic shrimp, BBQ ribs, and a honey-glazed roast duck...
