Before Serena Zimmerman walked over, Easton Holmes got up and walked towards her. As they met, he reached out and took the fruit plate she was holding.
"Auntie! You could have just asked me to get it, you didn't have to bring it over yourself."
"Got it, I'll disappear right away and won't be the third wheel here."
Serena knew Easton didn't mean it that way, but she still said it with a smile. She glanced at him, then at Lily Turner sitting on the sofa, before turning to leave the living room.
Easton glanced at Serena as she left the room, then walked over to Lily with the fruit plate. As soon as he sat down next to her, she playfully slapped his arm, "You're really not good at taking compliments, I just said you know how to talk, and now you... "
He used a fork to pick up a piece of apple and stuffed it into her mouth, cutting off her words.
