The trio sat down for dinner.

Tyler kept trying to fill Natalie’s plate.He seemed more enthusiastic than Hannah.

“It must be strenuous to work for such a big company as the Larson Group.Eat more.”

lt was awkward, so Natalie forced a smile as she ate.

She said, “It’s okay.It’s not as bad as it seems.”

“That’s because you’re superwoman, Natalie.How many people can say they get to work for Larson Group? If I got married and had a child, my daughter might be your age.”

Tyler kept flattering Natalie as he served her more food.

“I see my mother treats you like her granddaughter, but I can’t treat you like a daughter.I wouldn’t dare.I’m better off treating you like I’m your uncle since we are family in a way.”

Natalie looked at the greasy pork chop in her plate before she looked up at Tyler’s smiling eyes and said, “It’s okay.Hannah is like a grandmother to me.”

Hannah said with a smile, “Natalie speaks better than you.”

Natalie smiled, but her smile disappeared when she saw the crazed look in Tyler’s eyes.She had a feeling he hadn’t changed, but she couldn’t say anything.

When Tyler saw that Natalie and Hannah had almost finished eating, he stood up, poured the rest of the food and sauce into his plate, and stirred them together before gulping the whole thing down.

“Slow down.No one will steal the food from you,”

Hannah scolded as she patted Tyler on the back.Her eyes were full of kindness.She was simply grateful and relieved that he came back.

Tyler finished the food and said, “I haven’t had such a good meal in a while, Mom.It’s so good to be at home.”

Hannah smiled at Tyler.

“There’s no place like home.What have you been up to?”

“I’m currently between jobs, trying to decide what I should do next,”. Tyler said after he swallowed the food in his mouth and wiped the sauce on his lips and chin.

This worried Hannah.

After thinking about it for a while, she said, “You don’t have a good education background or skills, and you’re not as young as you used to be, so you might not find anything except security guard work or something along that line.”

Tyler sneered when he heard this.
