Chapter 987

Ruth froze for a moment. “Move into your wedding house? How can I do that? You two should live your own life as a couple. I won’t be living with you.”

Maria stepped forward, gently taking her hand. “Mom, you have to live with us. We’re always so busy, and we end up cutting corners on everything. We need you to keep us in line.” Ruth’s focus shifted. “Yes, you young people work too hard, not taking care of yourselves properly. That’s no good.”

Maria smiled. “Exactly, so you need to stay with us and keep an eye on us. Don’t worry, the house is big enough you could play soccer inside if you wanted!”

Ruth laughed. “At my age? Playing soccer?”

Sidney chimed in, “Mom, Maria is personally inviting you. If you refuse, you’ll be hurting her feelings. Are you not happy with your daughter-in-law?”

Ruth gave Sidney a light smack. “You rascal, what nonsense! I’m very happy with Maria! Don’t try to stir up trouble between us.”

Maria added, “Yes, don’t try to cause trouble. Mom will definitely live with us.”
