Chapter 407
I hesitated for a moment. In fact, I had prepared Glenn's meal at noon.
Hearing Jason's words, I didn't know how to refuse him. So I told him where the major utensils, rice, noodles, and diary products were.
I even told him what the seasonings in the cabinet were.
Standing by the side, Jason nodded. "I understand. Sister Janetta, take a rest first. I'll take care of the rest."
Wasn't he too enthusiastic?
For no reason, I began to be wary of him. Generally, people would be shy at others' houses. However, he wasn't like this at all. And he was active and at ease.
To test him, I went upstairs first and changed my clothes. Then, instead of going downstairs, I observed him at the stairs.
Jason did nothing else but be busy cooking in the kitchen. Soon, he presented a hearty breakfast.
I wondered whether I had been oversensitive.
At this time, Glenn woke up.
While helping him change his clothes, I said, "I invited a brother to have fun with you today. You have to be obedient to him, okay?"
"Brother?" Glenn opened his round eyes wide and looked at me with a puzzled look.
"Well, you'll know after you go downstairs."
After I get Glenn dressed, I took him downstairs.
By this time, Jason had put the food on the table. Although it was only a bowl of porridge and a small plate of stir-fried tomato and scrambled eggs, it was amazing for a boy at his age to be so good at cooking. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Upon seeing me, he quickly said, "Sister Janetta, I saw tomatoes and eggs in your fridge. So I cooked them. If you mind it, I won't cook them next time."
"It's okay. You can use everything in the kitchen."
I pulled Glenn to sit down.
Glenn sat on his baby chair. Jason put the porridge in front of him first and said with a smile, "Hello, I'm Jason Baker. I'll be your friend starting from today. Please let me know if you have any suggestions."
Hearing Jason's words, I felt that I didn't find the wrong person. It seemed that he was sincerely here to make friends with Glenn.
However, staring at him, Glenn didn't move at all. Instead, he pouted and asked, "Are you here to take my mother away from my father?"
"Ah?" Glenn's words made me stunned!
I patted his little head lightly and said, "What are you thinking in your head? I am senior to this brother by one generation."
In my opinion, Jason was just a child.
"I'm here to have fun with you." It seemed that Jason didn't mind Glenn's words at all.
"Oh..." Then Glenn nodded reluctantly and said proudly, "I think you have no chance. You are much worse than my father. My father is richer and more handsome than you. He knows how to please my mother better than you. My mother won't fall in love with you!"
"... Eat!"
I didn't know what was on Glenn's mind!
As Glenn lowered his head and had his meal, I apologized to Jason, "I'm really sorry. He isn't sensible."
"It doesn't matter. It means that I'm mature, right? Haha." Jason laughed.
After the breakfast, I left.
I had been nervous that day, fearing that Jason would be a trafficker or something like
that.
So I asked Paulina specifically during lunch, "Your nephew won't abduct my son, will he?"
Paulina patted her chest and assured me, "Of course not! My nephew is very good, okay? If he is not reliable, how dare I introduce him to you?"
After she repeatedly assured me, I felt at ease.
I came home at night, I knew that I had been too oversensitive."
By the time I returned home, Glenn and Jason had been playing with Legos in the open space of the living room.
Upon entering the door, I heard Glenn said, "You should have put it here! How can you be so stupid?"
Jason seemed to have been enlightened, "Oh, it turns out that I should put it here. I didn't even realize it."
"You are stupid. You, a grown-up, aren't as smart as I am."
When Glenn talked, he looked happy.
I knew that Jason surely knew where he should have put the Lego piece. It was just that He used this method to make Glenn think on his own.
The two of them were having a good time at this time. When I entered the room, neither Jason nor
Glenn noticed me.
Within a day, the two of them got along with each other so well. Only then did I feel that Jason was quite reliable.
I changed my shoes and walked inside. Jason quickly stood up and said, "Sister Janetta, let me prepare dinner for you."
"No, let me do it." I looked at my watch and found that it had been past six p.m. Then I said, "Go back to school now."
"Okay." Jason nodded his head.
Cleaning up the Lego pieces on the ground, Jason promised Glenn that he would piece the Lego with him tomorrow and left.
After I finished cooking and asked Glenn to have dinner, Glenn stared at me and said, "Mom, can you pay brother Jason more so that he can accompany me longer?"
I was stunned.
And I immediately wondered whether Jason had asked Glenn to say so to me.
In that case, he was so mean as to let a child speak up for him.
But I held my temper and asked him, "Why do you say so?" "Because there are so many Lego pieces in my room. If he won't accompany me longer, how can I finish piecing them this summer vacation?"
Glenn said in a natural way.
But I wasn't satisfied, asking, "Then who taught you that I should pay him with more money?"
"Well? Nobody. Didn't I earn one dollar hourly when I helped Grandpa Ryan previously?"
Glenn said it matter-of-factly.
At this time, I realized that I probably had misunderstood Jason.
In the days that followed, whenever Jason came, I would leave him some allowance and ask him to buy some things for me.
And I would ask him to stay for dinner.
On a Wednesday two weeks later, I, who had attended a banquet with Nancy, went home at 9 p.m.
By the time I returned home, Glenn had fallen asleep. And Jason sat alone on the sofa, playing games on his mobile phone.
As soon as I entered the room, he stood up and picked up the bag next to him, "Janetta, I'm leaving."
"All right."
I nodded.
Without saying anything, he put on his shoes and went out.
It had been completely dark outside. Seeing him running into the night in quick steps, I felt embarrassed for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, I took out my cell phone and called him.
Jason quickly picked up my call and asked, "Janetta, what's wrong?"
"Well... Isn't the last car gone? Why don't you stay here? There are so many guest rooms in my house."
There were three guest rooms in Rosy's house. With one of them transformed into Glenn's room, there were two other guest rooms.
In fact, I had considered letting Jason stay in my house. In the end, I dismissed them all.
No matter how young Jason was, he was a 20-years-old man.
It would be little inconvenient for me to live with him.
But in the past two weeks, I felt that Jason was down-to-earth and that he wasn't calculative. And I thought of him as an outgoing and neat boy.
Hearing what I said, Jason immediately said, "There's no need. Sister Janetta, I'll think of a way by myself! Thank you."
After that, he hung up the phone.
