At Olivia's restaurant-Ayden and Lucky are having lunch together. "Ayden, are you seeing anyone?" "Not yet. Are you alright with me being gay?" "Yes, I love you, son. I know I made mistakes by not being in your life. I failed as a father, and I can never make it up to you." "No, you can't. But I have an amazing mother." "Yes, you do. Elizabeth is an incredible mother and woman." "Do you still love my mother?" "As friends. Our marriage didn't work, but I don't regret you," Lucky said as Lulu arrived. "Lulu," Lucky greeted, "Ayden, it's good to see you." "Thank you," Ayden replied. "Do you want to join us? If that's alright with you, Ayden," Lucky asked. "I'm meeting Charlotte and Rocco," Lulu said. "They can join us, too," Ayden added as Charlotte and Rocco approached. "Come join us," Ayden invited, and they all sat down. "Ayden, this restaurant is better now that you're the cook," Charlotte said. "Olivia's recipes are still on the menu. She was a great chef too. She taught me a lot about the business and cooking," Ayden responded. "That's good. Olivia was a perfectionist in the kitchen," Lulu remarked. "Rocco, what about you? What career are you heading into?" Lucky asked. "I haven't decided yet," Rocco replied. "Oh, I'm sure it will be great," Lucky said encouragingly. "Yes, Charlotte is still working at the store with Gabriella." "Yes, I want to see her soon. That was terrible what happened," Lulu said. "Yes, it was," Lucky agreed.
