My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 1249

While they were eating, Cooper helped Sophia to the food and filled her plate as usual. He even resembled the way Sophia coaxed Carmen and cooed, “Have more, darling.”

Knowing that all the others at the dining table were looking at them, Sophia blushed.

“Pfft…” Amused, Stanley turned away as he couldn’t help laughing and Cooper immediately gave him a fierce stare.

With that, Stanley quickly lowered his head and pretended to be eating in a serious manner, but he was in fact chuckling.

Cooper continued to fill Sophia’s plate as he said, “Come on; have this. It’s your favorite!”

In contrast, Linus only had an empty plate and was not treated the same way as Sophia. Indeed, a daughter was more precious than a son.

It was a splendid dinner that consisted of harvests from their own farm together with Daniel’s delicacies and Harry’s seafood. Besides, the Yards brought some food too while Michael opened a few bottles of premium wine that he had been collecting. Anna had never experienced such a festive new year before, and she too ate quite a lot.

Worried that his darling would not have enough food, Cooper was busy filling Sophia’s plate with delicacies. Following that, he took another spoonful of food and was about to serve Anna. However, he hesitated for a moment, thinking that they were not that close after all and that she might not like being served, so he ended up putting the food onto his own plate.

Little did Cooper know that Anna had noticed his movements as she sat next to him. She saw Cooper scoop the food and move toward her, and she had even subconsciously held her plate out, ready to receive the food. Well, it seems like I’ve got it wrong. Nevertheless, with the lively surroundings, it did not affect Anna’s mood.

Meanwhile, Sophia took out some wine that she brewed. Seeing that, Stanley instantly held up his glass and said, “Quickly, Aunt Sophia—I can’t wait to try the ancestral wine of the Edwards!”

 

At the same time, Anna caught a whiff of the aroma as Sophia poured a glass for Stanley. “What wine is that? Can I try some?” she asked.
