Chapter 108 Mom
The next afternoon.
Because she had made an appointment with Mrs. Trevino for dinner, Cierra left L’Opera Restaurant in advance.
She had informed William early in the morning that she was going to visit Ms. Trevino at the Trevino family’s old house and she would come back late at night, so there was no need for them to
worry.
William was a little reluctant, but he didn’t stop her.
To think about it carefully, Cierra was able to grow up steadily and not be driven out of the Boyle family. The Trevino family had contributed a lot.
Just think about it, the girl who had been raised as a daughter of a rich family for the past 14 years had suddenly been thrown out to adapt to the world. She might have been abducted by others before she could learn how to wash clothes and cook.
The existence of the Trevino family could make sure Cierra survive and have food to eat.
As for the scars on Cierra’s body, it could only be said that the Boyle family was ruthless!
Therefore, William had no objection to the two elders of the Trevino family’s decision. William was just a little unhappy when he thought of the fact that the son of Ms. Trevino was Draven.
Jaquan remembered the kindness of the Trevino family and specially prepared a gift for Cierra to
bring over.
“You should have visited earlier. It’s really impolite to delay it until the elders speak.”
No matter what, Cierra had received a favor from the Trevino family. Ernest Trevino, who had passed away, truly loved Cierra as his own granddaughter. Especially after Aleah returned, he had treated Cierra even better than before.
Ernest probably knew that the people around Cierra began to dislike her, so the kind elder was willing to give her more love so that Cierra could balance it out.
In that kind of environment, Cierra did not feel jealous at all. On the contrary, because others treated her well, she would repay them tenfold. This was largely due to Ernest’s teachings.
Being criticized by Jaquan, Cierra still felt a little guilty. “I’m sorry, Cierra. I didn’t think it through.”
“It’s not your fault. In fact, I didn’t think of it, not to mention that you’re young. I told Jaquan and he reminded me to prepare a gift.” Jaquan explained.
However, William was unhappy hearing that. “Why didn’t he remind me?”
Jaquan looked down on him, didn’t he?
William slammed the table and said, “Wait, I’m also going to prepare a gift. I’ll ask Cierra to bring it
over later.”
“There’s no need, William!”
Cierra stopped him. “It’s enough as long as you have the intention. Mrs. Trevino doesn’t lack anything, and I haven’t said that I have a few brothers. It’s hard to explain if I bring too many things
with me.”
William thought it made sense as well after hearing it.
At present, only Ryan came out to recognize Cierra as his younger sister. Others didn’t know how many brothers Cierra had. It would be troublesome if she brought more things, so in the end, they decided to let Cierra bring only one gift.
Cierra still felt that she wasn’t being considerate enough, so before she left, she borrowed L’Opera Restaurant’s kitchen to make two portions of snacks.
After all, it was different if you made it yourself.
Because she spent some time wrapping up the snacks and the Trevino family’s old house was a little far away, even if Cierra got off work early, there was only dusk left when she arrived.
The people in the old house couldn’t wait any longer. When they heard the sound of the car outside, they got up from their chairs.
“Cierra, you’re finally back. You told me an hour ago that you set off, but you finally arrive now!”
As she spoke, Sue came out of the room.
Behind her, the man who had been sitting upright on the sofa also stood up and looked out.
Draven seemed to want to follow her, but before he could get out of the sofa, he was stopped by Sue.
“Go and help Anna bring out the food. It’s not appropriate for you to sit there all the time! Cierra is a guest, and are you a guest?”
Draven moved his lips as if he wanted to say something, but when he looked up, all he could see was his mother’s back. He pursed his thin lips and turned to the kitchen.
The Trevino family’s old house had a long history and was considered an old-fashioned building in
New York.
After Ernest passed away, they reshaped the gate. The iron gate blocked the outside, circled the courtyard in the middle, and they planted a lot of flowers and plants.
However, someone to open the iron gate from the inside and then invite guests in.
At this time, Cierra had already arrived at the door, and Sue went to pick her up personally.,
Before she could get close, Cierra saw a vague figure approaching with a smile in her voice. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Oh, I finally see Cierra. I haven’t seen you for so many years. I miss you so much!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Sue, who was wearing a cheongsam, opened the door and invited
Cierra in.
“Look, you must have suffered a lot outside. You’re so thin. Don’t you eat abroad every day?”
Sue’s enthusiasm did not diminish at all. All Cierra knew was that as soon as Sue saw her, she was asked about her well-being, which made her feel even more guilty.
“I’m not thin, Mrs. Trevino. I eat well every day.”
Cierra felt warmth in her heart. After following Sue into the room, her mouth also became sweeter.
“It was dark outside just now, so I didn’t see it clearly. Now I see that you are getting younger and younger. By the way, my brother asked me to bring you a gift. You will definitely look good in it!”
It was a diamond bracelet. There was no impurities in its emerald green color, and it looked even more beautiful under the light.
“My brother has something to do tonight, so he didn’t come with me. Ms. Trevino, please don’t take it to heart. He’s busy with work.”
“What are you talking about? I didn’t say anything when you came to see me so late at night. I’m so happy. How can I blame him?”
Sue glanced at the bracelet and saw that it was something she liked. The smile on her face grew even wider. She took out the bracelet and put it on.
“It’s beautiful. Your brother knows how to pick things. It’s the first time in my life that I’ve received
a satisfactory gift.
There was no lack of gifts in the Trevino family, but everyone liked gifts. What’s more, this diamond bracelet was precious. Sue was sensible and liked it very much.
Ordinary gifts were a token of goodwill, but things were valuable and were given to the hearts of the people. That was a token of sincerity.
Sue was reluctant to take it off.
Cierra was a little embarrassed to take out her snacks.
But she made it herself. Cierra took it out and said, “Mrs. Trevino, this is the pastry I made. I
thought that my brother had sent something, so I brought some pastry here for you to try.’
“Cierra, you usually don’t care about etiquette at all. I haven’t seen you since you came back. seeing that you are sending me pastry, I feel embarrassed.”
Sue picked up a piece of pastries and was very satisfied with its exquisite appearance. The cheongsam, the jade bracelet, and the pastries made her feel like she were an ancient official’s wife.
She took a bite with satisfaction and pity. “We’re going to have dinner soon, so I can only eat one
piece.”
Having won the approval of others, Cierra grinned from ear to ear. “I made it in the afternoon. You can put it on hold for two days.”
“Okay, let’s go eat first!”
After exchanging pleasantries for a long time, Sue happily put the things away, put them on the coffee table, and walked to the dining room with Cierra in her arms. She could not help
complaining.
“Cierra, it hurts my heart to hear you call me Mrs. Trevino. You were willing to call me mommy before you got married, but now you call me Mrs. Trevino before you divorce. It makes me sad.”
Cierra couldn’t reply and could only laugh.
Sue glanced at the tall figure in the kitchen and suddenly said, “By the way, don’t you think about what I told you last time? After you divorce, you can’t be my daughter-in-law, how about being my daughter? You can still call me Mom, okay?”
Cierra still couldn’t answer. Just as she was about to muddle through, she caught a glimpse of
Draven, who had just come out of the kitchen.
She stood rooted to the spot, her words stuck in her throat.
