Chapter 688: Chapter 688: Carolline Ruiz Gets Angry (3)

Bonnie Jenkins glanced at her daughter and had no choice but to keep silent, feeling uncomfortable in her heart.

However, she didn’t know about Christopher Lopez’s situation. She only thought that even if Christopher wasn’t as powerful as Bryan Hawkins, the Lopez Family was not inferior to the Hawkins Family. Therefore, they didn’t need to please Carolline Ruiz’s family or be subservient to them.

She didn’t understand why her daughter, who never cared how she talked to her family before, was suddenly behaving this way today.

"Sister-in-law, you shouldn’t talk like that. We’re all family here, so there’s no need to butter anyone up," Natalie Parton said, looking at Bonnie Jenkins. She didn’t need to show too much respect to her now. What was so great about this woman? Was it because of her own son? Raymond Ruiz’s achievements today were all thanks to Bryan Hawkins.

Wasn’t this all because of the support from the main family?

"Yes, Auntie is right. We are all family. Mom, try to be more magnanimous," Jasmine Ruiz followed Natalie Parton’s words, only to receive a glare from Bonnie Jenkins.

"Jasmine’s words are fair. Carolline, Bryan Cooper, please sit down. I’ll go help my sister-in-law in the kitchen," Natalie Parton said, putting her things down and heading to the Kitchen to help.

Since Bonnie Jenkins had to take care of her pregnant daughter, she didn’t have to go to the Kitchen to help out. In the Ruiz Residence, men didn’t have to cook, whether they did so in their own homes or not. Mr. Ruiz didn’t mind either way, but it was a rule in the Ruiz residence that they didn’t have to cook.

This was a rule that all the daughters-in-law who married into the family had to follow.

All three daughters-in-law abided by this rule quite well.

"There’s no need to bring so many things every time you come over for dinner," said Mr. Ruiz, after the two women had finished their bickering act.

He was well aware of the "infighting" between Bonnie Jenkins and Natalie Parton. There wasn’t much conflict between the sons, but these two women seemed to enjoy clashing with each other. Fortunately, it was all just verbal sparring, and the Ruiz family had nothing to lose.

If there were anything at stake, who knew what kind of mess these two women would create?

So now, he felt that his eldest son’s taste in a spouse was better than that of the second and third. Emily Hill, although she didn’t have any family support, had a better character than the other two women who had their families behind them.

"It’s just some nutritional supplements, Grandfather," Bryan Hawkins replied respectfully after sitting down.

"Alright, sit down and have some tea with your father and your uncles, play chess or something. Axel, you come with me to the study and let your great-grandfather see if your writing has improved. Carolline, Avie, your sister is pregnant and it’s not easy for her. Why don’t you two go to the kitchen and check on things?" Mr. Ruiz instructed. In fact, having the two chefs Bryan Hawkins brought was more than enough, but it was more meaningful for the Ruiz family members to lend a hand at their family feast. He’d have to find an opportunity to mention this to Bryan Hawkins later.

In the past, the Ruiz family had many feasts, so they didn’t need a professional chef every time. Everyone helping out together was very nice.

The point of a family feast was not whether the food tasted good or looked good, but rather to bring the Ruiz family together, allowing everyone to cook and chat together. As a family, it was important to gather together like this from time to time to deepen their bond.

"Grandfather, let me go instead," Bryan Hawkins stood up, not wanting Carolline to get tired.

"Sis, look how considerate my brother-in-law is to you," Avie Ruiz whispered in Carolline’s ear with a smile.

Carolline’s face fell, and Mr. Ruiz’s face darkened. "Carolline must have been bullied by you at home, right? In our Ruiz family, men don’t have to cook, whether they’re sons or sons-in-law. So just relax and enjoy your tea and chess. Look at Christopher, he knows how to appreciate the good life."
