Chapter 349 +25 BONUS Zachary was clearly putting Xavier in a difficult spot, and Viola could tell immediately.
Right when she was going to refuse the offer, Xavier piped up, "Yes, I'll go fishing tonight." That caught the ladies surprised. Yvette wondered, "Why so suddenly?" Viola wasn't buying it. It was the cold winter, and the frozen layer over the river would be at least 12 inches thick. How was he going to catch fish from the river? Even if he was going to bluff, he should've made up something reasonable.

At 10:00 pm, freshly caught fish was delivered to their doorstep! It was Viola's favorite-carp! Xavier handed the fish over to Yvette. She then quickly made ssoup with the fresh ingredients. She left sfish to share with the neighbors later, too. Yvette wasn't curious about how Xavier had gotten the fish. After all, people were willing to help as long as they were paid.
However, Viola didn't want to have the soup. "He caught them?" "To be more precise, he paid someone to catch them," Yvette explained.
Viola shook her head. "I don't want to owe him anything." Placing the bowl aside, Yvette hugged her. "You're overthinking about this. He's staying at your place every day, so what's wrong with him buying sfish for you?" Yvette knew what Viola was worried about. Viola was afraid that Yvette would be touched because of such a trivial matter and felt indebted to him.
In the end, Yvette managed to talk Viola into it. She was finally willing to have the soup.
"The fish over here is the best. It's fresh, not fishy." Viola had never felt this blessed. In the past, she had never imagined having a daughter and grandchildren for a company in her late years. After eating half a bowl of soup, Viola went to bed.

Actually, Yvette couldn't bring herself to imagine her life without Viola. When Viola was gone, what was she going to do? Where should she go? There was a saying that hwould be anywhere one's parents would be. Viola was like her mother. Once Viola left, would she lose her has well? Zachary stood by the door gingerly. "Mom." Yvette tucked Viola's hand under the blanket before leaving the room. "What is it?" "I'm going to Kiki's place tomorrow. She asked you to calong to attend Mr. Cook's wedding the day after tomorrow." Kiki was, in fact, afraid of attending Leonard's wedding alone. But she was still going to attend it because of her ego. Perhaps she could get over him once she personally saw him get hitched with another woman.
"Oh, I almost forgot about that. Okay, let's go to her place tomorrow together." "Okay."
The next day, before leaving, Yvette informed Hannah to take good care of Viola and to call her if anything to happened. She also notified Xavier that she and Zachary were going to Tirion. As soon as they left, Xavier asked someone to drive him there as well.
It was Sunday. Kiki had dolled herself up in a gown. Meanwhile, Zachary put on a suit and walked out of the fitting room. Kiki's eyes widened, twinkling. "Gosh, you look dashing! Zac, come, letpinch your cheeks." He scowled. "Kiki, can you act your age?" Yvette broke into a smile at their silly conversation. "Alright, we have to go now."
Kiki stopped her mischief. The three of them took a designated car that drove them to Seasons Hotel. Ashburn X
