Chapter 259

“Can a chef’s food ever compare to a mom’s homemade meal? I just want the kids to feel the warmthof home! They’ve been unfortunate enough to grow up without a mother. Now that they finally haveone, can’t you, as their mom, cook them a meal?”

“I remember growing up eating chef-cooked meals all the time, and I turned out fine! I don’t have anypsychological issues.”

“You…”

Seeing their argument was about to explode, Clara quickly intervened. “I think cooking could be fun;she just wants me to practice! Emmett, stop getting Mom upset; I’m okay.”

“I see; now that you have Clara as a wife, you don’t care about your mother anymore!”

Just as Sophia finished speaking, Patrick Melendez came downstairs. He sensed the tenseatmosphere in the dining room.

“What’s going on here?”

Sophia glanced at her husband but said nothing.

Clara smiled and said, “Good morning, Dad.”

“Mhmm.” Patrick nodded, sitting next to his wife. “Why can’t you guys talk things out? Why does italways have to be so tense?”

Emmett spoke up. “Well, ask Mom why she won’t leave my wife alone.”

“What’s going on?” Patrick looked at her.

Sophia turned away. “I just thought Clara should learn to cook and make breakfast for the kids. What’swrong with that? Isn’t cooking a skill a woman should have? You know our family situation. Aiden grewup without a mom and never tasted her cooking. I just hope she can give the kids more motherly love.Is that wrong?”.

“Didn’t I tell you not to meddle in the younger generation’s affairs?”

“…” Sophia frowned but remained silent.

Patrick turned to Clara. “You too. You shouldn’t bother him with small things like this. Do you want tosee them arguing?”

“No!” Clara immediately denied it. “I didn’t tell Emmett anything!”

“Dad, I know some things without Clara telling me. Mom always picks on Clara when she sees her; I’mnot blind or deaf.”

Hearing this, Patrick looked at Sophia again.

Sophia put down her cup of milk, clearly displeased.

“So if she does something that I’m not satisfied with, can’t I voice my opinion? You’re my son; she’s mydaughter-in-law; I’m the elder here with more experience and insight. I just gave a reminder, is thatconsidered malicious?”

“I’ve told you not to meddle in the younger generation’s affairs.” Patrick despised family disputes andsaid sternly, “From now on, no one in this house is allowed to trouble others! If I replace out, I’ll have totake action! Everyone should mind their own business!”

Clara immediately nodded. “I understand. Mom and Dad, don’t be angry! It’s all my fault, not Mom’s.Emmett misunderstood that I don’t like cooking, but I actually love it! I’ll start cooking from tomorrow!”
