Chapter 1544 - The Battle of Two Men
After dinner
Anna finds a surprising addition to the table, Manuel''s ymate Angelica.
The daughter of the Rossi Group.
Anna looked at her round face andughed, "Little Angelica, it''s been so long, why are you so round
again?"
Little Angelica blinked her round eyes, her skin grew paler and pinker, and she looked like a white
cotton ball sitting next to the tall, thin Manuel.
He could not understand Anna''s teasing, so he merely smiled stupidly at her.
That smile ......
Anna froze for a moment and then looked at Lea, who was sitting next to her, who also gave a silly
smile.
The corners of Anna''s mouth twitched.
When she had met Angelica before, the child''s smile had been innocent and sweet, how could she
have be as goofy as Lea after only a short time with her?
But time flies, first Lea was a tiny baby who could only be held in her hands, and now she can sit on
her own.
Serena let Cristian carry everything to the table before unfastening her coat and sitting down.
"Brother, Anna, I''m cooking for me tonight, so you will have some extra."
Since Serena and Anna knew each other first, Serena did not call Anna her sister-inw as she
normally did, but simply called her by her first name.
Cristian said irritably, "Because I don''t usually see you being so careful with me, cooking for your own
brother when he is here."
Anna blinked, and without waiting for Serena''s response snapped, "Cristian, Matteo is not a stranger,
he is Serena''s brother, why are you still so jealous?"
Cristian''s face changed slightly and his eyes narrowed toward her, but Anna was not afraid at all.
As it turned out, Cristian only gave her a fierce look and then withdrew his eyes without saying
anything.
"Okay, let''s all stop talking and eat first."
Manuel sat next to his two sisters, keeping an eye on them and feeding them, and Angelica lent her
flowers and put the crispy meat Manuel had given her into Lea''s bowl before saying in a milky voice,
"Sister this is for you to eat."
Lea blinked, her eyeshes growing like two small brushes as she held the drop-resistant bowl her
parents had specially bought her, with cartoon animals painted on it, and said in a small barking voice,
"Thank you, Sister Angelica."
"You''re wee, Sister Lea, take your time."
The three got along exceptionally well.
After dinner, Anna joined Serena in the kitchen and asked her, "What do you think of Angelica? Do you
want to raise her aspensation for Manuel''s future girlfriend."
At her words, Serena gave her a strange look.
"How is that possible? She''s so young, they''re just kids ying together, and besides, I really like her."
"I know, but I heard that Cristian was called at first under the guise of finding Manuel a girl?"
"Well, at first yes, but they are still very young, so I don''t get involved in such things. However, you
know that on things like rtionships, adults can''t interfere, and if they really are meant to be a couple
not saying anything, we''ll see how they see it when they grow up."
Serena turned on the faucet and the water filled with a ssh as Anna put the clean dishes under the
water.
"You''re right too, but Angelica is a bit of an uncontrolled eater as a child, it''s not good for her health to
gain too much weight."
"I know," Serena nodded approvingly, "I think it''s bad for her health too, I''ve told her several times, but
each time she promises me that she won''t overeat next time, but every time she sees food she forgets
about it, abandoning all the instructions I gave her and her own promises."

"I think she is too young, but she will be able to control herself when she is older.
If she can''t stop eating, don''t put too much food in front of her when shees here."
"Well, that''s a good suggestion, I''ll keep that in mind forter."
The two were chatting in the kitchen.
Suddenly, the kitchen door was opened and Matthew and Cristian walked in together.
"What are you doing here?" Serena asked, somewhat puzzled to see the two still without jackets and
wearing only a white shirt.
Anna, who still had some foam on her hands, also looked at the two men in disbelief.
Cristian pulled up his sleeves and then stepped forward to take the still unbrushed te from Serena,
"The outside is clean, you go sit outside and leave this to me."
While she was talking, Matthew stood by the sink and took Anna''s hand and washed it, saying softly,
"The maids have washed the fruit outside, you go eat first, we will go hometer."
In this way, the two women had just begun their work in the kitchen when they were driven out by the
two men.
After the door closed, Anna and Serena looked at each other.
"What''s going on?"
"I don''t know, why is she suddenly doing the dishes?"
"Do you usually do the dishes at home?"
"No, the maids do it."
"At our ce, too."
The two were silent together after saying this. Was it because they were the ones doing the dishes that
these two men would do them themselves?
Thinking about it, Serena half-open her red lips, "Forget it, let them do it if they want, we are happy to
be left alone, let''s go spend time with the children."
"Yes, yes."
What they didn''t know was that after the two men had closed the kitchen door behind them, Cristian
grimaced twice.
"I''ming to help my wife with the dishes, what are you doinging here to join the fun?"
At her words, Matteo gave him a cold look and reminded her, "There is not only your wife here, but also
mine, and by the way Serena is my sister."
Cristianughed slightly, "So what? A brother is no match for his husband after all."
"Also, be nice to your sister-inw from now on."
Cristian: "???"
"Or I will find an excuse for Serena toe home and stay more often."
Cristian wanted to punch someone when he heard that, his smile was a bit grim, and then he tried to
calm down after a moment.
"You know your wife loves Manuel, right?"
Matteo raised an eyebrow.
"After all, she had Manuel for so many years together before we had children, how about I let Manuel
bring Angelica to your house too?"
Matteo''s eyes jumped to the corners and narrowed on him, their eyes passed back and forth several
times in an instant, sharp stare.
After a moment, they both looked away at the same time and stopped fighting!
