Chapter 0923 - Lady's Socializing Tea Party
New York, Lee's Apartments.
Today, Mary hosted the 'Lady's Socializing Tea' at her home. β
The ladies of New York and nearby gathered, and Mary, as the host, was the protagonist of the tea party.
In the 'Oceanarium', which is so extravagant that even the rich would like to be envied, Mason and Elizabeth are visiting with a group of little ones.
The two of them are now getting closer and closer, often appearing in pairs on various occasions, making people laugh and envy at the same time.
As for Elizabeth's identity, it ceased to be a secret a few months ago.
Aiden fully showed the grandeur of the eldest brother, cooperated with Flanders to arrange the tea party needs for his mother, and accompanied his mother to receive guests at the front door.
"Thank you very much, Madame, for having me. Sasha Hilton showed up in front of the door with her daughters.
It's just that there are not only two people who accompanied her, but also Norma, who is already slim.
"Sasha..."Mary first helped Sasha on her knees, then looked at Norma with a heartfelt smile, leaned forward and hugged her, "Are you okay?"
"Madame... I am fine. "After a long time, Norma has become a little raw and shy.
As people grow older, their minds become more and more complex, and Norma, who is now 19 years old, is no longer the cute little girl she once was.
"Don't call me Madame, you should call me Mary, or Auntie or something. Mary patted her on the back and said pretending to be angry.
Norma smiled a little reservedly, but still couldn't speak.
They hadn't seen each other for years, although they still received blessings at festivals and often met up with Eric and Fia.
But neither Beverly nor Castle Dreamcastle ever went again.
"Alright, I should let you young people talk about it. Mary moved away from Aiden, who was behind her, and pointed, "Aiden, take Norma around." β
"Don't be nervous, my princess, this will always be your home. Mary whispered in her ear as she passed.
A look of emotion flashed in Norma's eyes, and Mary's gentleness reminded her of the woman who brought her warmth and motherly love when she was a child.
"Hey, can I join us?" the handsome and tall Ike Hilton followed.
Before you know it, the children have grown up, but the days of waiting to be fed seem like yesterday.
Gently touching the corners of her eyes with her fingers, noticing that they were as smooth as ever, Mary's smile was a little brighter, and she turned to look at the new guests.
"Aiden, your home is so cool, it has a zoo and an oceanarium, and a race track..."
Ike Hilton, who thinks he is already a member of high society, feels like a dirt bun after taking a turn in Lee's apartment.
A mountain bike that can run at home, with a professional three-story track.
The aquarium where sharks and baby killer whales are raised, and there is also a 'mini ocean' that is carefully cared for. β
Seahorses, corals, seaweeds, shells, lobsters, crabs, and more, live in harmony in a world created for them by the Creator.
An entire level of dollhouses, trampolines, slides, seesaws, merry-go-rounds, and happy balls.
These things that Ike had never heard or seen made him want to feel his childhood again, "Aiden, is there really any such thing in Dreamland?"
"Don't you ever pay attention to advertisements?" Aiden wondered more than Ike's suspicion that he never paid attention to newspapers and radio.
"Uh... But I didn't think they would be that much fun. Ike rubbed his nose in embarrassment.
"Hey, is there anything else interesting?" asked Norma, bouncing off.
What she saw and heard in front of her also made her regain the liveliness that a girl should have.
"Library, are you interested?" Aiden had heard the name Norma countless times.
But the number of times I really saw her was only a vague memory of my childhood.
I didn't expect to meet again, and the other party has grown into a beautiful big girl.
"Unfortunately, if only I had been born a few years earlier. Aiden thought to himself with regret.
"Of course, Charlie... Does Uncle go often?" Norma clasped her hands to her chest and looked at him expectantly.
"My father wasn't at home, and I don't know where he went. When it came to his father's whereabouts, Aiden was helpless.
Every time he plans his trip, there is an unpredictability, so to speak, he does what he wants to do immediately.
Where, only a few people in the secretary's office know.
Mom rarely overdoes this, but if necessary, you can always get in touch with him from the secretary's office.
As for him and Mason......
Thinking of the message he left to his dad last time, and telling him in person after he came back, Aiden didn't bother to think about it again.
"Isn't it there?" Norma said in a somewhat lost tone.
The lack of father's love for many years made her rely on Li Zitao a lot.
Over the years, I have worked hard to become excellent, and my biggest hope in my heart is to be recognized by him.
Unexpectedly, the first chance to meet again, he was not present.
"Listen to my mother, you want to be an actor?" Aiden suddenly asked.
Ike, who heard it next to him, looked at Norma with a questioning gaze, why he had never heard her mention it.
"Yes. Norma nodded affirmatively.
This has been her dream since she was a child, since she experienced the feeling of being surrounded by magnesium lights at the opening ceremony of the Golden Arches.
The idea of being a high-profile superstar planted a seed in her heart.
Now, Norma thinks she's ready.
"You can talk to your mother, or you can go to Lilith and I can introduce you to each other, and with DreamWorks care, you'll have more ease. β
Aiden's preaching with the appearance of a little adult made Norma tease her sideburns with some discomfort.
This little guy, who was only shoulder-high in her, was full of mature and reliable temperament when he spoke just now.
For a moment, she saw the shadow of Uncle Charlie in Aiden.
"Okay, I will. Norma didn't refuse his kindness.
However, she would rather talk to Mary than go to the girl named 'Lilith'.
"The study has arrived, come on!" Taking the elevator to the top two floors, Aiden took them to visit the dome-style study with a ceiling height of 5 meters.
He was no stranger to this study, because he and Mason spent half of their time here when the holidays came.
There are many rare books and manuscripts in the study, from both the East and the West.
There are also many celebrity calligraphy and paintings, rare collections, fairy tale picture books customized by them, and so on.
"It's almost time, and if you don't go back, your mother should be in a hurry. Raising his hand to look at the time, Aiden was going to take the two of them away.
"Thatβ" Ike looked at his drooping wrist again and again.
Under Aiden's inquiring gaze, he finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Are you bringing Louis Moi from Breguet?"
