Chapter 573

Chapter 573 Meanwhile, Ryder admired the exquisitely decorated apartment while sitting on the couch with Tommy. While Tia did not live a lavish lifestyle, Ryder noticed that her home was elegant and well–appointed. After spending many years living with Abellyn, he was intimately familiar with her careless and sloppy ways. With this comparison in mind, he was instinctively captivated by Tia. Of course, he was aware that a pushover like him would not be a good match for this woman, who was young and beautiful, so he did not even fantasize about it. “Ah, Mr. Lowe. Have some tea.” With a warm smile, she set two glasses of the milk tea she had just prepared in front of the father and son on the coffee table. “Thank you!” Ryder was ecstatic because he could see that, despite her youth, Tia was generous and skilled with her hands. He couldn’t remember the last time he had had such a pleasant exchange with a woman, and all it took was a smile from her to throw him for a loop. “It’s so good, Ms. Poole!” On the other hand, Tommy had consumed the entire glass of milk tea in one sitting. As he wiped the corners of his mouth, a look in his eyes revealed his desire for more. “I’ll get you more if you want some. I made the tea myself, so we have enough,” she chuckled. When Tia leaned forward to pour more milk tea into Tommy’s glass, her curves were displayed so beautifully that Ryder had to avert his gaze because his cheeks were beginning to turn a bright red. “Well, Mr. Lowe. There is something we must discuss about Tommy.” Even though she was talking to Ryder, she didn’t spend much time staring at him because he wasn’t as breathtakingly handsome as Emmanuel. “What is it?” He was extremely anxious because, since marrying Abellyn, he had hardly spoken to any other women. Hence, it was understandable that he was nervous about going to an unmarried woman’s house. “Tommy is one of the best graduates of our kindergarten, so the school hopes he’ll help out with one of our advertisements. As his teacher, I’d like to make a video with him since I will be on break around the holidays. It will only take a day. Will he be free around then?” “I see. Do parents need to participate as well?” Ryder had no ill intentions when he asked Tia that question; rather, he simply wanted to explore his newfound freedom to interact more with well–educated women like her after his recent divorce. However, she didn’t notice the expression on his face because she had turned away to clean and clear her tea–making utensils away. Thus, his question prompted her mind to unwittingly think of Emmanuel. Since she was still single and had nowhere else to go for the New Year, she planned to stay in Yeringham. She also thought it would be wonderful if she could spend a single day of the entire holiday with a charismatic man like Emmanuel. “Parents can participate in the filming as well. You can have Tommy’s uncle film in your stead if you’re not free, Mr. Lowe. It all depends on when you’re free.” Tia was visibly blushing as she replied. “I see.” Ryder, on the other hand, was unaware of her thoughts or that she Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the ꜰind_ηovel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. had fallen head over heels for Emmanuel at first sight, as his mind was preoccupied with when he would be free. Besides, Emmanuel just got married, so he would be much busier this year and have no time to film a video with Tommy. “I’ll let you know in the future. It should be fine, though.” “Really?” Tia’s eyes lit up and she swiftly continued, “I’ll leave the timing in your hands then. You can let me know once the two of you have set a date.” “Oh? O–Okay.” Thinking that she meant Tommy and him, Ryder promptly agreed to her suggestion. Then, he said, “We should be free at any time except the day after tomorrow. After all, we don’t have that many relatives now-” He no longer needed to visit his in–laws, and the only person he needed to visit during the holidays was Alessandra. “Oh? Does that mean you’ll be together during that day?” In her mind, she was referring to Emmanuel. She had not expected Ryder to misunderstand her words. “Yes. Tommy and I will be visiting his uncle on that day. We should be free after that.” There was something off about the way Tia was asking about the date; and Ryder couldn’t put his finger on it. “Very well. You can come over whenever you want after you’ve met with him.” “Okay!” His heart swelled with glee as he agreed to that. He was concerned that the holidays would be boring now that he was divorced. Nonetheless, a day spent filming with her would be a great holiday present for the family, as this would help alleviate the pain Tommy is in due to the absence of his mother.
