Too Late, Mr. Cooper: Your Bride Ran with Your Baby novel Chapter 423

After the dinner, the Hart family gathered on the living room sofa to watch the holiday special on TV.

To be honest, there wasn't much to watch these days. The show served more as a festive background noise while everyone did their own thing and chatted.

Mrs. Hart noticed that Linton, after finishing his meal, had discreetly gone to the kitchen to wash the dishes and clean up the dining table and kitchen by himself. She quickly walked over, smiling.

"Linton, it's a holiday, let's not worry about this now. Just leave everything. The housekeeper will take care of it tomorrow."

Linton, with an apron tied around his waist to keep from getting wet, smiled faintly and lowered his gaze. "It's no trouble, Mrs. Hart. I can handle it," he said, his voice hoarse.

"You go rest. You were kind enough to take me in for the holiday; I can't just sit around and do nothing. Please, let me do this. Go and relax."

Oh, dear.

Mrs. Hart was getting older, and words like that really got to her.

She looked at Linton's tall figure with a complicated expression. She was about to try to persuade him again.

"Linton…"

"Mom."

Gabriel suddenly appeared behind them, one hand in his pocket, his tone cool and a bit lazy.

"If he wants to work, let him. You go sit with Liliana in the living room. I'll take it from here."

Mrs. Hart looked from Gabriel to Linton, let out a heavy sigh, and shook her head with a look of resignation.

"Ah, what a mess… You young people these days…"

With that, Mrs. Hart slowly walked away.

Gabriel glanced at Linton's stiff, tense back and cut straight to the point, exposing his thoughts.

"What, are you afraid Liliana will kick you out, so you don't dare to face her?"

Linton paused, his lips pressed tightly together. It seemed Gabriel had hit the nail on the head.
