Chapter 92
“Hey, Mom.”
Anthony’s mother nodded without even looking at him. “Have a seat.”
Anthony obliged and served her the cake and hot chocolate before doing the same for himself. He bit back a sigh when she obviously refused to look at him.
“What’s going on?”
“Eric proposed to Olivia last night.”
Anthony grinned at his mother even though she had yet to glance up at him. Instead, her focus was on the cake, which she was cutting into with the fork.
“That’s great news.”
“It is. The engagement party will be fifteen days after the first day of the Lunar New Year.”
“Awesome. Thanks for telling me, Mom.”
His mother didn’t respond. Instead, she continued to chew on the cake. Anthony waited for his mother to say something, which she eventually did.
“Eric is your younger brother. You don’t mind him getting married before you do, do you?”
Anthony shook his head. “It’s fine, Mom.”
“Okay. When he and Olivia get married, they will present you with a new pair of pants. It’s an old tradition.”
