"Got it!" Summer hugged Kristen. "Don't blame yourself, okay?"

"Okay." Kristen nodded.

After that, Summer let go and happily went off to look for Phoebe.

In dramas and novels, the first snowfall was always portrayed as romantic and poetic.

This was Summer's first winter after being reborn. Those three years in the asylum, every winter had felt unbearable. The floor was freezing cold, and the thin, ripped blankets offered no warmth. The meals had been frozen like lumps of ice, so each bite was hard to swallow.

Summer stared out the window, quietly looking forward to today's first snow.

Phoebe muttered as she planned out what to buy, "Today is Mr. Hartford Senior's last day at work. Let's make something he likes tonight."

Henry was a peculiar old man.

He didn't care much for imported foods. Instead, he was obsessed with locally grown produce from farmers and fresh catch from the river.

That was why Phoebe preferred going to the street market.

    Henry seemed to have sunk deep into the fears of what kind of dangers Mason might bring to Summer if he ever became her husband."Besides, Mason doesn't care about anything but work. Even if he's thinking about you, it's only because he values Hartford Group. That man has no real emotions!" Henry said."Grandpa, that's too much," Summer said, her expression turning a little stern.Henry snapped out of it and realized that he was crossing the line a little."I'm just too worried," he said with a wave of his hand. "Let's not talk about this anymore. You're a smart woman. You won't end up with him."Summer didn't know what to say to that. She had just said to Phoebe earlier that Mason's road to becoming her official partner seemed promising. Now, it seemed like it was still a long way off.Once she got home, Summer looked at her phone and immediately saw a message from Mason. "Old man?"It was followed by several crying emojis.Ever since Summer had taught Mason how to use emoji

    Thinking about it that way did make Summer feel quite happy.They strolled through the market together.Along the way, Phoebe shopped while subtly feeding Mason bits of information about Henry's preferences, such as what kind of teas he liked and what sort of fish he preferred.Mason understood instantly and memorized every detail.As they were about to finish up, Henry passed by a fruit shop and took a liking to the display inside. He walked in to pick out some fruit while Phoebe was busy paying up at another stall.Summer and Mason followed him inside, and the owner came over to greet them.When Henry was paying, the cheerful owner complimented Summer, "Sir, is this your granddaughter? She's even prettier than movie stars!"Henry loved listening to others praise Summer, so he started to grab even more fruits as he beamed.However, the owner followed up with another statement. "And your grandson-in-law is so handsome, too! The two of them look so perfect together!"Henry's sm

    "I understand." Mason nodded.Henry glanced at Mason before shaking his head with a smile. "Mr. Hunt, I'm just making casual conversation. You don't have to treat it like a royal decree. The woman you end up with may not share the same values the Hartford family does.""I think what you said makes perfect sense. That's the kind of life I want, too," Mason immediately responded.Phoebe and Summer were walking behind the two of them.Phoebe whispered to Summer, "Do you think Mr. Hunt sent that bitch away?"Summer took a moment to realize that Phoebe was talking about Cynthia."I'm not sure," she said, shaking her head.Phoebe looked pleased. "It must have been him. It turns out Mr. Hunt is ever so slightly more dependable than I gave him credit for."Summer lowered her gaze slightly, hiding the hint of a smile on her lips.She did feel a bit better earlier when she didn't see Cynthia appear with Mason.In front of them, Mason and Henry were still chatting."With how things are

    Summer more or less knew what Cynthia was trying to do.It was nothing more than putting on an act in front of Summer. Cynthia wanted to pretend that she had some unusually close relationship with Mason to try and provoke Summer and make her jealous.Mason's car followed behind Summer's.In the car, Cynthia beamed. "I didn't expect Mr. Hartford Senior to be good friends with my grandparents!"Mason's head was lowered as he looked over some documents. "Cynthia, Mr. Hartford Senior loves Summer deeply. You should watch your words around him. Don't upset him."The smile froze on Cynthia's face. "Did I say anything wrong this time?"Mason glanced at her. "Think about it yourself."Cynthia fell silent.Then, she said, "Mason, are you only acting this way because you care too much about Summer? Is that why when I say anything related to her, you think I'm targeting or trying to hurt her?"Mason did not respond to that, and Cynthia looked even more frustrated."I really don't unders

    "Okay." Summer nodded."The market? Is it fun? I want to go, too!" Cynthia looked full of curiosity.Summer glanced at her. "It's a wet market. Are you sure you want to go?"Cynthia nodded eagerly. "Mason, I've never been to one before. Why don't you come with us?"She had been agonizing over how she could get to spend time with both Summer and Mason together, so this was the perfect opportunity.No matter how many times Summer had slighted her, Cynthia was determined to return it all in one go."Mr. Hunt, you've probably never been to that kind of place either, right? Want to come along?" Summer looked at Mason with an innocent smile.Mason said nothing.Summer was definitely angry.And so, for whatever reason, Summer and Phoebe ended up bringing three more people on the trip.Before they got in the car, Phoebe tugged at Summer and glared toward Cynthia, who was climbing into Mason's car. Her face was full of hostility. "Ms. Hartford, that girl is definitely up to something.

    "That works, too. This fried chicken smells great. My wife hasn't let me touch this stuff in years. I'll finally get a bite to satisfy the craving.""Mason, I ground this coffee by hand for you. Try a sip!" Cynthia walked past Summer and went straight to Mason."Ms. Turner, you're so considerate!" said Henry cheerfully, completely unaware of the underlying tension as he teased Cynthia and Mason happily."Mr. Hartford Senior, I know you don't drink much coffee, so I brought you some tea instead. I heard from Mason that you used to be friends with my grandparents. Is that true?" Cynthia said to Henry.Henry answered, "Yes, but it was a long time ago. You could say that we were childhood friends. So, if you ever need anything, come find me, okay?""Alright, thank you, Mr. Hartford Senior," Cynthia replied sweetly."How cute and innocent," Summer mused to herself."I'll have someone send you some supplements through Mr. Hunt, too. You're still too thin and need some proper nourishme
