"We wouldn't dare—" Sam stopped abruptly. His gaze turned sharp instantaneously once it fell onto a certain someone. Daniel Winston!"What is he doing here?" Sam asked in an icy tone.Rebecca put her hands in her pockets and replied, "Aunt Mary brought him along as her plus-one. Albert had wanted to chase him away earlier, but he's so thick-skinned that we couldn't stop him from joining."Her attitude towards Daniel was ambivalent compared to Sam's cold demeanor. She no longer felt anything for him and refused to continue looking at him. She felt that it was a waste of time to entertain him.When she left Riverwood, she thought it would be hard to forget a past lover. She worried she might be attracted to him the next time they met. However, that didn't happen. She had gotten used to better things, so the past didn't matter to her anymore. She had also started to forget what he looked like after spending so much time with her family.She thought she could’ve gone the rest of her

A person's capacity for healing on their own can be quite strong. Daniel started to regain his consciousness after the physical pain had subsided. The melodious voice from his memory resounded in his ears once again. Daniel never thought that the most effective medicine for him in his current state would be her voice. It made the pain disappear.Rebecca had actually come running from the kitchen. The birthday cake she had baked was ready, and she wanted to get Sam to try it. However, she saw Sam punching someone on the grass.Each punch that Sam landed on that guy caused the surrounding dust to fly. She was afraid that her brother would cause serious damage, which could tarnish his reputation. So, she hurriedly went up and stopped the one-sided fight.Sam saw the worried look on Rebecca's face and got up. He gestured at Daniel and said sarcastically, "You don't need to worry so much. He's not dead yet.""Becca, do you feel sorry for him?" Sam asked, and he sounded a bit angry."

"Both of us are the lucky ones. We won't know when that girl might get lazy and stop cooking. So, we're thanking our lucky stars that we still get to eat her food," they answered politely. Both Dr. Manson and Markus were food aficionados and had made the trip to Rookfort to taste Rebecca's cooking. They were focused on waiting for everyone to arrive to start the meal and didn't pay attention to what Mary insinuated. The two distinguished guests might not have minded, but the Johnsons didn't know how to hide their embarrassment, especially Zelda, whose face was becoming redder. "That's some strong praise from you. It's only natural that Becca treats you well when you are here. She'll be more than happy to cook your favorite dishes to keep the both of you here.""Come, have some food. There's no need to wait for the kids. We are not that rigid with etiquette," Zelda said and served the two guests some food. Zelda was extra polite and courteous towards them as they had taken care of Re

Mary immediately curled into herself and slumped against the chair after being yelled at by Kenneth. It took a while for her to regain her composure."Please calm down, Kenneth. You know me. I always mean well, but I'm more of a hindrance than a help. I was just trying to help Becca find a good husband. I didn't mean to throw her under the bus. Please don't yell at me. I won't bring it up again, okay?" Mary pleaded, trying to ease the tension.However, she froze at Kenneth's glare again. Rebecca didn't miss Mary's little scheme and sneered. Mary was just a bully who preyed on the weak. Rebecca helped her mother to a bowl of soup and muttered, "I appreciate your concern, Aunt Mary. But I think it's only natural for parents to prioritize their children. If I recall correctly, Serena, who is a few years older than me, is still single. Since the Winston family is interested, why don't you arrange a meeting between Mr. Winston and Serena?""I already like someone, so I can't go on a

"When it comes to matters of the heart, it's best to let people figure it out on their own." Rebecca smiled as she gazed at Ryan. Her gaze made him a bit uncomfortable.Her voice remained cool. "If that's the case, I hope you won't speak on his behalf anymore. Otherwise, I'm not sure I can consider you my friend."Ryan's expression shifted. It seemed that Rebecca had seen through his little scheme. He cleared his throat and said, "I promise I won't mention him again."Rebecca shook her head, and her smile grew sincere. "There's no need to be so extreme. You can mention him if you want. Just don't say anything baseless in front of me."In other words, don't play matchmaker for her. While she didn't hold grudges, she had no interest in going back to her past relationships. No matter how nice Daniel might be, they had broken up. It was over now. Besides, he wasn't that great of a person.He was a jerk.She had set aside some food in the kitchen. It was some leftovers from the othe
