He was still young and his abilities were limited. So he could only partner with this scumbag for the moment.

Matthew looked down at the kid. He had started to consider for Dolores at this young age and knew how to be grateful. He had to admit that Dolores had taught him well. They were like a loving mother and a dutiful son.

At this moment, a waitress came to clear the table and wiped the table. The cloth had been used numerous times and was filthy. Even after wiping the table, a layer of oil remained on the table.

Samuel pulled the chair out, “Please sit.” He climbed onto the chair and waited for Dolores to bring over the food.

“Do you despise this place?” Samuel looked at Matthew.

Matthew looked at him, pulled out the chair, and sat down. He did not despise but never came to such a place for breakfast. Furthermore, some people would occasionally take a peek at him. He felt uncomfortable for being ogled like an animal in the zoo. He didn’t like such a feeling.

Dolores took the porridge and fried dumplings, fried pancakes, and eggs over. She placed the bowl of porridge in front of Samuel and another in front of Matthew and herself. Thereafter she replaced the serving tray and sat down at the table.

Samuel had started to eat the porridge and the fried dumplings. He was enjoying them and they seemed delicious.

“Why aren’t you eating?” Dolores saw that Matthew hadn’t started to eat.

Matthew then took the spoon and took several mouthfuls of porridge. The rice was well cooked and the pumpkin was very sweet. The porridge was very tasty.

Dolores looked at his expression and asked, “How does it taste?”

“Pretty good.” Matthew didn’t lift his head and took another mouthful of porridge.

Dolores smiled. Jessica found this shop which was near to where they lived. Samuel liked the pumpkin porridge the first time he tried it.

“This is also very nice.” Samuel gave a fried dumpling to Matthew.

He looked at the dumpling. He had eaten many different types of dumplings be it made by his mother or at the restaurants that were very nicely made and delicate. But this one was ugly and looked oily.

“It’s very yummy.” Samuel looked at him with his big round beautiful eyes.”

Matthew looked into Samuel’s eyes and was stunned to see what a pair of beautiful eyes he had, just like when he was a child. He remembered the photo which Coral looked at of him as a child.
