After Easton Holmes finished the dumplings in his bowl, he left the Dyer Family with Lily Turner.
Bella Carter originally wanted the couple to stay a little longer at home, but before she could say anything, Jaxon Dyer stopped her with a look.
Jaxon wasn't worried about affecting anything, but when he came back earlier, he saw a car parked at Easton's door, a car he recognized—it belonged to Easton's mother, Amelia Linton.
Remembering the phone call he received in his office earlier, he knew his good friend's mother had come knocking, and he suspected it must have something to do with Lily Turner.
He knew a bit about the relationship between his good friend and his mother. Easton's mom wasn't someone who would come by easily unannounced.
"Go upstairs and rest; I'll clean up the dishes."
Jaxon told the pregnant Bella to go upstairs for a nap while he tidied up the dishes in the living room.
"I'll clean up first and then go to rest."
