Chapter 84
With Anthea’s stunning good looks and alluring figure, Karen couldn’t help but imagine how gorgeous Anthea’s children would be.
“Ann!” Karen exclaimed with open arms to greet Anthea.
Anthea wrapped her in a warm hug. “Mrs. Christensen.”
Karen brimmed her eyes with satisfaction.
On her way over, she had spritzed herself with a scent of durian, but there wasn’t a hint of disdain from Anthea.
“Mrs. Christensen, my place is just over there, let’s head on,” Anthea suggested.
Chatting and walking. It wasn’t long before they reached the Yeager family.
Anthea fished out her keys, “Mrs. Christensen, welcome to my home.”
As the door swung open, they were greeted by the delightful smell of home cooking.
With the family restaurant gearing up for its grand opening, Carole had been busy experimenting with recipes at home.
Hearing the commotion, Carole, clad in an apron, emerged from the kitchen. “Ann’s back, and who’s this lovely lady with you?”
Anthea introduced, “Mom, this is the Mrs. Christensen I told you about. Mrs. Christensen, this is my mother.”
“Hello there,” Karen greeted her with a cheery smile.
“Pleasure to meet you,” Carole replied.
“Calling me Karen would be just fine.” Karen offered.
“Karen,” Carole, ever the pragmatist, invited her to make herself at home.
Anthea quickly went to pour Karen a glass of water.
Karen surveyed the surroundings discreetly. The decor was modest but spotless, a testament to the homeowner’s grace.
Carole brought over a plate of freshly sliced fruit, “Karen, please enjoy some fruit.”
“Thank you.”
Carole was always kind–hearted, “Karen, feel free to treat this place like your own.”
Come lunchtime, Carole served up a feast.
Karen’s appetite soared, “I haven’t had such a satisfying meal in ages. Your cooking is seriously out of this world.”

“If you like it, you’re welcome to come by anytime.” Carole offered.
“Really?” Karen looked at Carole in surprise.
Carole nodded affirmatively. “Karen, I’m not joking. It’s tough for the elderly, alone at this age. sharing a meal can help, why not?”
Karen was deeply touched.
The Morris family was a thankless lot, yet Anthea and her mother were the good Samaritans who sought no recompense.
Karen figured her trip to Cloudcrest was totally worth it.
After the meal Anthea escorted Karen back.

Stepping outside the complex, Karen held Anthea’s hand, “Ann, you’re amazing! I tried that remedy you gave me just once, and I didn’t lose a wink of sleep last night! How can I ever thank you? I happen to have a grandson, perhaps he could be the one to repay you!”
Anthea was stunned, looking at Karen in amazement.
Karen went on, “Don’t worry, Ann! My grandson is a real catch, the pride of Capital City!”
With a wink, Karen added, “And he’s quite the wealthy bachelor!”
