Chapter 822: 007 surgery successful

New Year’s Eve night, Celia, with Jordy by her side, saw the splendid fireworks she hadn’t seen in many years, and felt the most beautiful snowflakes.

That night, she smiled especially happily, and in the end, they each went back to their rooms to rest. At eight in the morning, Jordy rang her doorbell, holding two bowls of steaming sweet dumplings.

On the first day of the new year, Ellie called and invited them over for a meal. There really wasn’t much to eat on the streets and alleys, so Jordy looked at her and let her reply to Ellie.

Celia thought about it and agreed.

First, she hoped Jordy could have more contact with them, and second, she actually really wanted to see Ellie’s separate courtyard. She had seen it on the TV the previous night, and it looked truly magnificent.

"..." Seeing that Celia had already agreed, Jordy didn’t say much, "Since we’re going, let’s go to the mall and buy some gifts. It’s not nice to go empty-handed."

"...I thought you’d be angry, I’m glad you’re not. Honestly, I just wanted to see the interior of Auntie’s separate courtyard. Thank you, Jordy." Celia earnestly called his name instead of ’Big Brother’.

"Yeah, I know." Jordy nodded seriously, as if he had already seen through her little scheme.

So, the two went shopping at the mall and bought some New Year’s goods to bring to Ellie’s house.

Ellie and Marcus were already happy to see them arrive, but when they saw all the things they had brought, they felt a bit embarrassed, "Having you both here is the best New Year’s gift for us, why bring so many things?"

"Auntie, Uncle, it’s only right. You’re cooking for us, so what’s a few gifts compared to that, and besides, it’s the new year." Celia always had a sweet tongue. She would never show a bad face to anyone who treated her well, not to mention the special relationship these two had with Jordy.

"Come in and sit down," Marcus invited them into the living room, gentlemanly taking the items from Celia’s hands.

The four of them sat down in the living room, and a servant brought tea and snacks.

"Jordy knows I’m better at making coffee than cooking, but I can stir-fry a couple of home-cooked meals. You’ll get to try my cooking in a bit." Ellie said embarrassingly.

She was naturally not very good in the kitchen. On the contrary, Marcus was a pretty good cook.

"Really? Auntie, you can make coffee too? That’s great. May I have the honor of tasting the coffee you make?" Celia flattered Ellie, partly to liven up the mood since Jordy had been silent ever since they entered the house.

She didn’t want it to be awkward, especially during the New Year celebration, and she could tell that both Ellie and Marcus wanted to treat him nicely.

"Of course, after lunch, I’ll make coffee for you in the afternoon," Ellie was delighted. She really liked Celia. If it wasn’t for her, she and Marcus probably wouldn’t have seen their son today. Also, the girl was great at lightening the mood, unlike that day when just the three of them were present and it was cold and awkward.

After all, Jordy didn’t want to speak with them and would only politely call them Mr. and Mrs. Parker, while Celia’s ’Auntie’ and ’Uncle’ sounded much nicer.

"Okay, thanks in advance, Auntie." Celia nodded like a pecking chicken, then shifted the conversation back to the cooking topic, "Auntie, you said you’re not very good at cooking, but Jordy is. Whenever he cooked for me, I could always devour three big bowls of rice. I was quite chubby as a child, and it’s all because of that."

The implication was that it was all due to his spoiling her. Later on, as Jordy took over the Wade family business and began to get busier, she gradually lost weight. After slimming down, she rebelliously went off to the Entertainment Circle and mingled there for a while.

"Really? He must have inherited that from his father, not me," Ellie was surprised. She remembered that when Jordy was two and a half years old, he disliked the meals she cooked.

Although he disliked them, he never wasted food. Jordy understood things from a young age, unlike other children his age. They say that children who mature early don’t have happy childhoods.

That saying was true; Jordy’s childhood really wasn’t very happy. Back then, he often received strange looks from others, and she couldn’t tell him who his father was, nor could she get his father to acknowledge him.
