Boyce quickly asked him about Jayden’s condition, fearing that his condition would worsen.

Doctor Jason nodded with a grave expression, “Tonight could be the night. His condition is worsening at an alarming rate.”

Hearing the doctor’s premonition, Jasmine nervously wrapped her arm around Boyce’s arm. She could imagine the heavy atmosphere in the house now.

Boyce was not so flustered as he held Jasmine’s hand, “After you enter the house, pretend you have no idea about anything. Act natural as usual.”

At this kind of critical juncture, the more careful one acted, the more sensitive others would be.

Jasmine nodded.

Boyce brought out the mooncakes they had brought from the boot along with some gifts. Today was a celebration, so it would be unbecoming of him to come empty-handed.

After making sure he had brought the gifts, he asked Doctor Jason, “Doctor Jason, aren’t you coming in?”.

Doctor Jason replied, “I need some fresh air out here. I’ll go inside soon.” Boyce nodded and went inside the house with Jasmine.

Jessica was holding the little girl in her arms in the living room, Andrew and Amanda were in Jayden’s makeshift living room. She had folded a bunch of paper cranes and was hanging them all over the house. Kevin was holding the stool while she stood on top of the stool.

Jayden had said that today she wanted to eat some scones with spicy meat filling.

This was Victoria’s favorite food when she was still alive. Jayden had no particular craving for them, but he always gobbled up a bunch every time. For some reason, he was really craving scones today.

Dolores was making the dough and Matthew was cutting up some green peppers. When the dough was ready, Matthew wasn’t done yet. Dolores took the knife and said, “Let me cut them. You can cut the meat.”

No technique was needed to cut the meat, so Dolores placed those meats on a clean cutting board and handed him a meat cleaver. He silently accepted it and began to cut the meat.

His movement increased.

Dolores looked at him but said nothing. He continued to cut the peppers into small pieces.

After half an hour, the meat was well cut and Dolores asked him to wash his hands, “I’m going to make the sauce.”

“Let me do it. Tell me what to put in.” Matthew pulled a huge bowl out of a cupboard and put the freshly cut meat in the clear bowl. Dolores handed him some pepper broth she had prepared earlier, “You have to pour this broth in three turns into the meat fillings. Each time you do this, you have to stir it all in one direction until the meat absorbs all the essence.” Matthew did as he was told.

While he made the sauce, Dolores began to knead the bun skins.

As she kneaded, she watched Matthew and gave him instructions on what to put in the bowl, “Finely chopped onion, finely chopped garlic, salt…and then put the chili in to mix it well.”

Matthew obeyed those instructions firmly.

Dolores had finished kneading a dozen bun skins and then proceeded to show Matthew how to use them to wrap the fillings. Although they didn’t give a spectacular appearance, she was able to finish stuffing the skins in no time.

“That’s it.” Dolores let him continue on his own while she busied herself kneading more skins.

There was no one entering the kitchen, and this could very well be Jayden’s last supper. It was ample for them to pay their respects and filial piety.

As the sky darkened and two hours passed, they finally finished the scones.

Dolores poured some water and Matthew poured the buns into the wok to cook them.

After ten minutes, all the buns were finally cooked and Dolores scooped them onto a plate. She took a tray from the cupboard and placed the bun plate on it. She even poured a small portion of vinegar and minced garlic and placed them together on the tray.

“Go send it.”

Matthew looked at her and said, “I’ll go.”

He picked up the tray and turned to leave the kitchen.

Dolores proceeded to clean up the kitchen and when she was done, she came out and saw Boyce and Jasmine. She asked squeakily, “When did they get here?”

Jasmine approached her and replied, “A little while ago.”

She reached out to hug Dolores and said, “I’ll stay here with Boyce tonight.”

Dolores nodded and said in a breathy voice, “If anything should happen, help me keep an eye on the kids too.”

Jasmine replied, “Don’t worry, I’ll watch them.”

Dolores sat down on the sofa and took Amanda in her arms. She was very obedient today and was now clinging to her mother like a sweet girl.

The other boy was asleep and Jessica carried him to his room.

The door to Jayden’s room opened and Matthew came out with an empty tray.

He took one look at Dolores and whispered, “One more serving.”

Dolores froze for a moment before returning her daughter to the couch. Then she got up and headed for the kitchen.

Matthew followed behind her.

She turned on the stove to boil some water, “Is it all over?”

During this period of time, Jayden didn’t eat much at each meal. The current one was no less in the least, and would take her half an hour normally. However, judging by her speed of eating today and her abnormal craving, she began to worry.

“Eating too much…”

“He commented that the taste is identical to Mom’s cooking. If he wants to eat more, let him be.”
