The young group seemed understandably wary of strangers, which was a prudent mindset. However, Kisha couldn't bear to see the disappointed expression on Mrs. Winters' face after the misunderstanding. So, she interjected from her seat on the leather chair, speaking across the room, "My mother-in-law was simply extending an invitation for you to join us for a meal. No need to overthink it."
Upon hearing Kisha's words, Clyde was momentarily caught off guard, choking on his own saliva in surprise. Meanwhile, Mrs. Winters's smile widened at the unexpected but warmly received address from Kisha. With each passing moment, her fondness for Kisha seemed to deepen, appreciating the respect and endearment behind being called "mother-in-law." Even Duke, occupied with Vulture and Tristan, couldn't help but smile to himself as he dealt with the ingredients. Inspired by the exchange between his mother and Kisha, he felt compelled to also cook for his own mother.
