Chapter 263


    Annalise refused to ept the ancient jewelry. “Grandpa, I can’t ept such a precious thing.” “Silly


    child, take it.” Old Mr. Xander took Annalise’s hand and stuffed the box into her hands. Annalise


    refused to ept the gift. Old Mr. Xander pretended to be angry. “If you don’t take it, it’ll be a pity if it


    broke.”


    “Grandpa, I really can’t ept it.” Annalise could not ept such a valuable thing. It would be fine if


    she was the Xander family’s bloodline. But, she knew that she was not. How could she ept it?


    Nancy saw that Samuel kept insisting Annalise take the ancient jewelry even after Annalise refused the


    gift. Anger filled in Annalise’s heart. Nancy thought, “Well, could it be because she isn’t his biological


    granddaughter? “Could it be?” They were both Samuel’s biological granddaughters. Samuel would not


    allow wanted to give it to Annalise.


    The more Nancy thought about it, the angrier she became! Lee had been bedridden for 20 years. What


    contribution did he give to the Xander family? The fruits that the Xander family was enjoying now were


    thebors of her immediate family. Just as Nancy was about to speak, she heard Lee say, “Anna,


    please ept it. It’s Old Mr. Xander’s kind intentions. Don’t make an old man anxious. Just take it that


    you’re temporarily keeping it for Old Mr. Xander.”


    Annalise was in a difficult position. Julian also smiled and said, “Yes, please ept it and keep it for


    Old Mr. Xander.” Annalise could not refuse anymore. She took the box with both hands and said


    respectfully, “Thank you, Grandpa!” The more Samuel looked at Annalise, the more he liked her. Most


    importantly, he realized that Annalise not only looked like Lee, but her personality and behavior were


    simr to Lee’s.


    After Annalise epted the box, Sámuel smiled lovingly. “No need to thank me. Anna, we’ll organize a


    banquet for you tonight. Let’s catch up as a family. In the future, you spend more time in the house.


    Julian, pleasee here often with Anna.” OldMr. “Sure, Old Mr. Xander!” Julian replied with a smile.


    When Nancy saw this scene, she really could not take it anymore. She felt like her heart, liver, spleen,


    and lungs were going to explode with anger. She forced a smile and said, “Grandpa, I’m meeting a few


    friends over there. I’ll leave first. Let’s have a banquet for Anna tonight” With that, she left immediately.


    After finding her mother, Nancy could not hold her resentment any longer. “Mom, am I my father’s


    biological daughter?” “What? Why would you say such a thing?” Lily Sox, who was the ex-wife of


    Yechiel Xander and current wife of Jimmy Zeller, looked displeased. Nancy sneered angrily. “Mom, do


    you know what Grandpa did just now?” Nancy chuckled. “He gave his precious ancient jewelry to


    Annalise Barton. Annalise rejected it, but he kept forcing her to ept it. She didn’t want it at all, but he


    insisted that she take it.”


    Lily’s eyes flickered, and she said faintly, “Hence, status is very important.” Nancy was even angrier.


    “What status? It doesn’t mean that her status isparable to mine. I’m the eldest girl among the


    Xander family’s younger generation. Not only that, I’m also the daughter of the Zeller family. Who had


    better status in the entire Jadeboroughpared to me?”


    Lily tried to educate her daughter. “Nancy, I’ve told you many times that people must learn to control


    their emotions. Only when you remain calm at all times that you can make urate judgments and


    make decisions. that are best for yourself.” Nancy heaved a sigh of relief. “But, Mom, I’m really


    aggrieved, okay? I even smiled at them under such aggrieved circumstances just now.” “You’ve done


    well,” Lily said, “but now that anger has taken away your rationality, you’ve lost your judgment she think


    she is? “Your grandfather likes Lee so much that he gave the ancient jewelry to his Lee’s daughter.


    “Besides, Annalise is Julian’s wife. Of course, your grandfather took this opportunity to build closer


    rtionships with the Parks family.”


    Nancy’s eyes shed with jealousy. She became even more determined. She wanted to steal Julian


    and be the wife of the richest family. She said angrily, “Lee was also a good-for-nothing. I hinted


    that I donated bone marrow for him back then, but he didn’t say anything.” Hearing this, Lily’s face


    turned cold. “Why did you tell him this? I warned you not to mention what happened back then.” “Mom,


    as you can see, Lee’s health has improved. If I don’t hint him, what if hees to fight for thepany


    with Dad again?


    Even though her father was managing the corporation and generated so much profit for the Xander


    family in a year, her grandfather still valued her second uncle and “If Lee fights for thepany,


    grandpa would fully support him, right?” Nancy said anxiously. “He won’t fight for thepany.” Lily


    was certain. Lee was not an ambitious person. Unless he found his son and wanted to fight for him. His


    son was probably a skeleton now. How could he find him? Nancy frowned and asked again, “Mom, why


    did you divorce Dad back then?”


    She had asked this question countless times. She did not understand when she was young, but she


    could see the situation better when she grew up. Jimmy was very cowardly and always listened to Lily.


    He could not bepared with her biological father at all. Lily’s expression darkened again. “Children


    shouldn’t interfere in adults’ matters.” Nancy rolled her eyes speechlessly. “Mom, I’m 25 years old this


    year.”


    Lily said in a deep voice, “From now on, don’t mention your bone marrow donation to anyone. Don’t


    mention my past marriage “But Lee, he…” “No-buts!” Lily’s tone became domineering. “Oh, I


    understand.” Nancypromised. She had been living with her mother for more than 20 years and


    knew her mother’s personality. Ever since she was young, her mother had doted on her very much. Her


    mother fulfilled almost all her requests. Yet, her mother could be very firm in certain matters.


    Once her mother firmly said no, it meant it was a taboo or red zone for her. Seeing that her daughter


    was obedient, Lily’s expression softened. She said gently, “I’m doing this for your good.” “I know.”


    Nancy pouted. Lily asked again, “The Xander family will hold a dinner banquet for Annalise, right?” At


    the mention of this, Nancy chuckled again. “That’s right. She’s so precious. Not only is there a banquet,


    but she’s also staying at the Xander family for a long term.” “Nancy, you have to be friendly to Annalise.


    I don’t care what you’re thinking, but you Look at how behave in the Zeller family. What did I do? I was


    friendly and polite to everyone in the Zeller family.

    “Sometimes, not getting into a fight was the greatest weapon. “Which daughter-inw of the wealthy


    families managed obtainedpany shares? I now own 20% of the Zeller Corporation’s shares. ‘Mom,


    I understand.” Although Nancy agreed, she cursed in her heart, “Not getting into a fight. Julian has


    already be someone else’s husband. If i don’t fight, Julian will have a child soon.”
