Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 325 Grill

Although Yuliana didn’t want to have too much contact with Wesley, she had never been unkind to those who meant

well. Wesley was shameless, but he had never overdone it. He knew when to stop and would step back when

Yuliana became wary or annoyed.

Over time, Yuliana didn’t resist Wesley so much after learning more about him.

After all, she didn’t know many people in Jeahron, and even fewer people had a good relationship with her. Besides,

Rowan seemed to like Wesley very much and was more excited than usual every time he saw Wesley. He even said

his first word to Wesley.

It was Yuliana’s birthday, and Callie was not in Jeahron. However, she called Yuliana early in the morning and asked

Aaron to bring her gifts.

Xandria and Kathryn also rushed to Jeahron from Juxshire to celebrate her birthday.

Yuliana didn’t want things to be too troublesome. So she planned to set up a barbecue stand in the yard, enjoy

some wine or drinks, and get together with her friends.

She and Hailey could deal with a few people, so they didn’t find others to help them.

After thinking about it, Yuliana decided to invite Wesley.

That evening, while she, Xandria, and Kathryn enjoyed their food and a good chat, Wesley and Hailey were busy

beside the barbeque stand.

Rowan could walk by himself, but his steps were unsteady.

Rowan probably didn’t have much contact with adult men, so he was very clingy to Wesley and liked to imitate

Wesley’s behavior.

Wesley sat on a small stool as he roasted the food, and Rowan followed him everywhere he went. Wesley feared

the barbecue grill would scald Rowan, so he held him in his arms. Rowan watched as Wesley grilled the food and

handed him the BBQ skewers.

“Mmph!” Wesley deliberately teased Rowan and refused to take the skewers.

Yuliana also liked to provoke Rowan into speaking by using this method.

Sure enough, Rowan got anxious and grabbed Wesley’s black T-shirt with his dainty hands. Rowan frowned as he

started making humming sounds.

Yuliana was not far away from the barbecue stand. She could see the interaction between Rowan and Wesley when

she looked up. Since they were next to the barbeque stand, she was still worried even though Wesley and Hailey

were there. She took a glance every few seconds.

Wesley picked Rowan up and sat him on his knees. Wesley was expressionless but asked patiently, “What is it? You

must explain it, or I won’t know what you want.”

Rowan grew even more anxious, but he still refused to speak. He just stuffed the raw BBQ skewers into Wesley’s

hand.

Yuliana knew that Rowan could understand what Wesley was saying.

Many times, Rowan understood her when she talked to him.

However, she didn’t understand why Rowan refused to speak.

Wesley glanced at the BBQ skewers Rowan placed in his hand and asked, “Do you want Mr. Wesley to grill them?”

Rowan smiled sweetly and nodded.

Wesley didn’t directly place the BBQ skewers on the barbecue stand. He looked at Rowan and said, “Nodding

doesn’t count. You have to say it.”

Rowan looked at Wesley blankly when he heard that. After hesitating for a while, he started shaking his head. “You

don’t know how to do it?” Wesley smiled and touched the back of Rowan’s head. That’s all right. I’ll teach you how.

Look at my mouth and follow what I’m doing.”

“Grill”

Wesley spoke slowly and pointed at his mouth with the BBQ skewers in his hand. He asked Rowan to pay

attention to the shape of his mouth.

Rowan only looked at him expressionlessly but didn’t follow what Wesley did.

They were at an impasse momentarily.

Wesley said. “I can’t help you grill these skewers if you don’t say it.”

His voice was slightly stern.

Every time Rowan encountered that situation, he would habitually act coquettishly, and it worked all the time in

front of Yuliana. However, it was Wesley he faced today, and Wesley intended to force Rowan into compliance.

Therefore, Wesley didn’t let Rowan have his way no matter how Rowan acted coquettishly or pretended to cry.

Finally, Yuliana couldn’t stand it anymore. She rose and walked over to pick up Rowan from Wesley’s arms. Yuliana

asked Hailey to wipe Rowan’s tears with a tissue. She wanted to comfort Rowan, but she gritted her teeth and

insisted when she met Wesley’s eyes. She put Rowan on the ground and squatted while saying, “Roe, I want to have

some grilled chicken wings. Can you ask Mr. Duncan to help you cook them?” Rowan pouted, and his eyes were still

red. He looked at Yuliana blankly when he heard what she said, with apparent resistance on his face.

Yuliana didn’t urge him. She only looked at him and waited patiently.

After another impasse, Rowan suddenly threw himself into Yuliana’s arms and rubbed his furry head against her

while making coquettish sounds.

Yuliana secretly sighed, exchanged looks with Wesley, and shook her head helplessly.

As she was about to give up, Rowan suddenly stood up from her arms. He turned around and went to the small

table beside the barbeque stand. After looking at everything there, he picked up a BBQ skewer with chicken wings

and handed it to Wesley.

Rowan said certainly, “Grill.”

Rowan’s speech became increasingly smooth after saying his first word, and he had an excellent vocabulary. Some

of the things he said even surprised Yuliana. She had no idea where he learned all of it.

Moreover, Rowan became talkative after he learned how to talk. He kept speaking even when playing with himself,

and even Yuliana was annoyed by Rowan.

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year.

Yuliana and Rowan celebrated their first New Year in Jeahron.

In June, Juxshire Prison sent news that Damian was urgently taken to the hospital due to a sudden illness. relapse.

Yuliana hurried back to Juxshire but didn’t make it in time to see Damian for one last time.

When they rushed to the hospital, Damian was already a cold corpse.

Yuliana informed Sabrina and Jacob, who were abroad. Sabrina immediately returned home with Jacob after she

received the news. She handled Damian’s affairs alongside Yuliana.

Another year later.

After finishing the last document, Yuliana shifted her gaze to the window. Night had already fallen. Yuliana raised

her hand and looked at the silver wristwatch on her hand. It was already eight o’clock.

She picked up her phone and called Hailey.

When the phone was answered, Rowan’s milky voice came from the other end of the line.

Yuliana turned her neck and her lips curled upward as she said, “Hailey.”

“Yuliana, when will you be home?” There was a hint of happiness in Hailey’s voice. “I made desserts for you this

afternoon, and I’m sure you’ll love them. I’ve stored them in the refrigerator for you.”

Yuliana wasn’t a fan of cold desserts in the past, but she had grown fond of them during the past two summers

Yuliana couldn’t control her cravings and didn’t know if it was a fluke as she felt that there was no difference

“I have an appointment tonight and should be home after ten o’clock in the evening. I’ll get them from the

refrigerator when I’m home.” Yuliana turned off the computer and said, “Please pass the phone to Roe. I’ll

have a word with him.”

“Okay.” Hailey then said in a slightly softer voice, “Roe, It’s Mommy on the phone.”

Soon, Rowan’s voice could be heard from the other end of the line, “Mommy, I miss you so much. Please come

back quickly.”

Rowan was already over three years old and was attending kindergarten later that year.

To make sure that Rowan could adapt to kindergarten life faster, Yuliana was already preparing him for school.

However, she was too busy to keep an eye on him at all times. Besides, Rowan was a relaxed child and never

panicked, no matter what he did. Sometimes Yuliana was slightly worried about him.
