"Mom must be busy in the kitchen, let's go see!" said Selina, clutching Wilson's hand as they walked to the kitchen.
The scene they saw from the kitchen doorway, was so tender and warm that it touched Wilson's heart to see.
In front of the hearth, was Elsa cooking, and Jacob, who wore an apron too, was helping her. They were so focused on making breakfast that they didn't see Wilson or Selina standing in the doorway.
It always filled Selina with joy to see how devoted they were to each other. She nudged Wilson with her elbow to silently suggest for him to greet Mom.
Staring at the back of Elsa, Wilson thought, 'She has worked for the Yuwen family for many years, now it's time for me to call her Mom.'
"Mom," Wilson called out unexpectedly.
Elsa and Jacob both heard Wilson, but Elsa was so shocked that she stood frozen with her spoon in the air.
A surprised Jacob turned to see Wilson and Selina standing in the doorway. Wilson was looking at Elsa. Did 'Mom' really come out of his mouth? He was willing to call her Mom?
After a long pause, Elsa turned to Wilson and Selina with the spoon still in her hand.
Wilson gave Elsa a serious look and repeated himself,"Mom."
Hearing Wilson call her Mom was music to her ears, and Elsa was so excited, that she couldn't contain herself and cried out. She hadn't pushed for him to call her Mom, but, Elsa had waited for such a long time to hear it, deep in her heart she had hoped Wilson would call her Mom. Now, he was grown and was married, and on this morning, he surprised her by greeting her with Mom.
"Wilson," Elsa said softly.
Looking at the side of Wilson's face, Selina quietly suggested,"Walk over to Mom."
As Selina spoke, Wilson felt her hand slip off his arm, leaving him free to walk over to Elsa.
The short distance felt longer, and Wilson's heart pounded with each step, then standing inches from Elsa, W
Jean Wen sacrificed herself for family interests. Before her husband divorced her, she made every effort to please him.
"You are inexperienced in bed," he said coldly.
"You! Give that land to my family, or I won't agree to divorce," Jean replied furiously.
"Fine. It is exactly what I am thinking about," he sneered.
o, Dad. Everything should go well though. We don't have any major projects or anything special happening while we are away," Wilson stated.
"Well, you two should just enjoy yourselves on your honeymoon, and not stress about anything, so, I will help out by checking in at the office," Jacob reiterated.
"Alright, but, don't forget to take good care of each too while we are away. Relax, go for walks together, and have fun," Selina reminded them glowing.
"Okay Selina, keep in mind, Dad and I will be waiting to hear good news from you," Elsa told Selina, smiling knowingly.
Selina knew exactly what Elsa meant, and her face felt hot, and turned a bright pink immediately.
It was difficult for Wilson not to notice Selina's embarrassed discomfort as her cheeks turned pink and her eyes dropped to her lap. He jumped in chuckling. "Mom, I understand. Don't worry. We will work hard day and night to bring you good news, soon!"
Jacob and Elsa smiled at each other, satisfied with what Wilson was saying.
Selina was mortified and setting her chopsticks down, and she smacked Wilson's arm. He knew how uncomfortable Selina was, and how shy she was too, so, why would he keep discussing such a private and sensitive matter as though it were the weather?
