Chapter 1435 A Mother’s Food
In the photo, the baby form of Sonia looked so pink and soft. She was so very cute.
Sonia stood there, unmoving.

Toby tugged her hand. "It'll be fine. Let's go."
He then led her over to the table by hand.
Julia's anxieties vanished when she saw the two of them walk over to the table. She smiled. "Sonny, Toby, have a seat first. I'll go help your dad over."
She then walked over to Titus.
Soon, he was shuffling over to the table with her help.
After the two sat down, Julia glanced at Titus and at Toby. She could not resist letting out a sob. "I'm so happy. My dream finally came true."
Sonia's eyes flashed; she could guess what Julia's dream was.
A family reunion.
As expected, Julia accepted the tissue paper Titus held out and spoke through a tight throat, "Sonny, after you were born, your father and I would fantasize about what life would be like when you were older. We all said you would end up marrying the best man in the world because that was the only kind of man you deserved."
Toby could not resist puffing out his chest when he heard the words "the best man in the world".
There was no doubt he was the best man in the world.
Toby's reaction might not have been obvious, but Sonia still noticed it. The sight made her torn between crying and laughing.
He really is thick-skinned.
Julia and Titus did not notice Toby's reaction. All they saw was Sonia chuckling. While they did not know why she was laughing, they were happy if she was happy.
Julia then continued, "Your father and I had also thought about how we would not stay too far away from you after you were married. We would end up buying two units in the same area so that we could get together often. It would also allow us to help take care of your children. Finally, that wish is being fulfilled."
Julia and Titus' grandchild might not be born yet, but it was on the way to.
Still, Titus could not hide the flash of disappointment in his eyes.
He was doomed to never see the birth of his grandchild.
It did not matter though. At the very least, he knew he had a grandchild before he passed.
"Alright, let's eat. The children must be starving," Titus said, hinting at Julia.
She soon realized what he was trying to say and nodded. "Yes, have some food. Let's eat."
She then grabbed a few mouthfuls of food from the shared dishes and moved them to Sonia's plate. "These are all of Mom's best dishes, Sonny. She learned all this just for you. However, she's a little rusty after over twenty years of no practice. The food might not taste as nice, but do try some."
Sonio stood there, unmoving.
Toby tugged her hond. "It'll be fine. Let's go."

Toby tugged her hand. "It'll be fine. Let's go."
Sonia's mouth gaped open as she stared down at the mountain of food on her plate. She was about to speak but kept quiet when she noticed Julia's friendly eyes.

In the end, she picked up her cutlery and slowly took a bite while Julia and Titus stared at her.
Julia's entire body was trembling in excitement.
She is eating.
My daughter... is eating the food I made.
Titus was ecstatic as well. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Sonia's actions proved that she had started to somewhat accept their presence in her life.
"How does it taste, Sonny?" Julia anxiously asked, putting down her cutlery.
Sonia swallowed the mouthful of food she had eaten and silently stared at Julia for a few long moments. Deep down, an indescribable feeling rose in her.
Is this what a mother's cooking tastes like?
The food was frankly average; it was not good, but it was not too bad either.
However, it tasted unusually amazing. It filled her with warmth, bringing tears to her eyes.
It was her first time experiencing such an emotion. It made her panic, yet it made her feel nostalgic.
Everyone liked to talk about how a mother's cooking was different, but she never understood what they meant by that. Now, she finally had an idea what that meant.
"What is it, Sonny? Does it taste bad?" Julia panicked when she saw tears shimmering in Sonia's eyes. She hurriedly shot to her feet. "If you don't like it, don't eat it. Spit it out. We don't want you to spoil your appetite."
Titus was beside himself with worry as well. "That's right. Spit it out."
Toby kept quiet as he could see that Sonia was not crying because the food tasted bad, but because of the feelings that the food gave her.
He gently patted her back in silent reassurance.
Sonia shot him a look and forced a smile to her lips to indicate she was fine. She then turned to Julia and shook her head. "It's fine. The food is good."
Julia heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. "Thank goodness. You scared me."
She thought her food was so disgusting that Sonia's health might be affected.
"Have more, then. I'll cook whatever you want to eat in the future," Julia said before excitedly passing more food to Sonia.
Titus would occasionally join in on adding more food to Sonia's plate.
Perhaps it was because Sonia wanted to know what it felt like to have parents; she did not stop them or reject their offers. Instead, she politely piled some food onto their plates before putting her cutlery down.
"I'm full," she declared.
