All of a sudden, Theodore ced a chicken drumstick on Rosalie''s te.Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    Rosalie quickly said, "I''m full."


    Theodore looked up and met her eyes. Rosalie''s heart trembled, but she immediately looked away. Reba smiled at them without saying anything.


    Soon, Theodore took the drumstick from Rosalie''s te and ate it himself, as if saying, "If you won''t eat it, I will."


    Rosalie sighed in relief, feeling this was better than being forced to eat. She disliked those forced gestures of hospitality where people insisted you eat or drink even if you didn''t want to, making you seem rude if you refused.


    At the very least, Theodore had stopped adhering to that awkward social norm.


    Reba suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, I need both of you to help me with something."


    "What is it, Grandma? Just tell us," Rosalie said.


    "I have an old friend whose granddaughter is getting married. She invited me to the wedding, but I''ve been feeling a bit tired and don''t want to go. It would be noisy, too. So, I told her I would ask if my grandson and granddaughter-inw would go in my ce," Reba exined.


    By now, both of them understood what Reba meant.


    "Grandma, Theo and I are already divorced," Rosalie said hesitantly.


    Reba smiled awkwardly. "I didn''t tell her about your divorce. Honestly, even though we''re old, we stillpare with each other. At our age, what else is there topare but the prosperity of our family? Could you both, for my sake, pretend you''re still married and attend the wedding?"


    "Grandma, this..." Rosalie hesitated. "It might not be a good idea. What if they figure it out?"


    "If you and I keep quiet, who will know?" Reba looked at her pitifully.


    Rosalie didn''t know what to say. She was still hesitant, while Theodore remained silent.


    Seeing this, Reba sighed.


    "If it''s too much trouble, forget it. I won''t force you. It''s just that seeing my friends with their big, happy families makes me envious. I''m a bit vain. I''m sorry. It''s my fault for asking too much. Luckily, I told her I would just ask and didn''t agree


    outright."


    Though Reba apologized sincerely, Rosalie could tell she was deeply affected by their divorce. She still hadn''t fullye to terms with it yet.


    Rosalie couldn''t bear to see her so


    sad. Even thoughparing oneself to others was never wise,


    sometimes it was unavoidable. After all, Reba must feel sad that her grandchildren were divorced. Seeing others with big, happy families only made her feel worse.


    Rosalie turned to Theodore, wanting to know if he was willing to go. She saw no issue with it, and was willing to put on a show to make Reba happy.


    However, she didn''t want to promise Reba without knowing if Theodore would be up for it. After all, they were divorced. He wouldn''t necessarily agree with her.


    She wanted to ask him, but she didn''t think it was good to do so in front of Reba. If Theodore disagreed while she agreed, Reba might rebuke him.


    The three of them were very quiet, as if they had reached an impasse.
