Chương 328: Christmas Eve Dinner

All of them were gathered in the living room, with Delilah and Patrick monopolizing Keanu's attention. He talked to them amicably, being engaging and warm as always.

Yet, despite that, Delilah and Patrick couldn't help but feel like they weren't talking to someone who was of their own age, but rather, to the friend of their son.

Technically, the latter was true but due to Keanu's age, one would think they'd be more 'compatible'. At first, Delilah and Patrick thought it was their imagination, then realised it wasn't until finally, they simply accepted it. Strange as it was, they had long discovered that whenever it came to their kids - and friends - 'strange' was normal.

The kitchen was abuzz with all the help that Delilah had hired just for the dinner. She insisted that the kids didn't help or do anything, even though preparing for the dinner was normally viewed as a 'bonding' and 'family' moment.
