Chapter 1856


    However, Old Madam Amery''s heart was full of resentment - she could not bear it anymore. "No, I


    won''t let her live here! In that way, she would get want she was up to. After brooding it for a long


    time, she could finally get a ce in our family! What a scheming girl!"


    "No wonder she didn''t make any demand before doing the operation. It was because she wanted


    something more! In this case, why did you act as if you didn''t care about it all? You could tell us


    about your greedy n from the beginning!"


    Old Master Amery said in a heavy tone, "That''s enough. Don''t get involved in this matter!"

    Old Madam Amery, her heart filled with anxiety and hatred, could no longer hold back her anger and


    criticized in an increasingly sharp tongue, dropping her eyes. "How could she be a member of


    the Amery family? Only noble youngdies like Abby deserve to live here. What does she have?"


    Old Master Amery red at her harshly and scolded her loudly, "She saved your son, and she is


    rted to us by blood!"


    Tina deserved it.


    It was a decision that no one could change.


    Old Madam Amery was dumbfounded on the spot, and her face turned ashen.


    She was forced to shut her mouth up. Though she was still fuming with indignation, she remained


    silent.


    However, infuriated with them, she put down the chopsticks in her hands with a thump to express


    her dissatisfaction. "I''m full!" With a gloomy face, she left the dining room.


    But the meal hadn''t yet started... She suddenly left the table, which made everyone a little


    embarrassed.


    However, Tina didn''t care.


    Old Master Amery cleared his throat and said again, "Tina, let''s continue with what we just said. I


    have arranged the room for you. Don''t worry. I won''t change my decision!"


    Tina smiled lightly, her eyes clear. She shook her head and refused to ept the offer. "I''m sorry.


    Thanks for your kind invitation, but I don''t need it!"


    The Amery family wanted so much to take her in. She knew it very well, but she did not intend to


    ept it.


    Tina had never thought of being epted by the prominent Amery family.


    Abby could not help looking at Tina in surprise, intending to find out what she was thinking about.


    It had never urred to her that Tina would refuse it.


    She really wanted to know whether her words were sincere or fake.


    Abby thought she must be too crazy or too naive to know the advantages if she meant what she


    said.


    After all, the Amery Family was a rich and powerful family, which was beyond the reach of many


    ordinary people. This was a once- in- a- lifetime opportunity. Because once the Amery Family


    recognized her, she would get a lifetime of luxurious life. Who would resist wealth and power?


    Or, was it because Tina had never experienced such a wonderful life so that she was unaware of


    the huge benefits?


    Old Master Amery frowned when he heard that.


    He looked at his son, who was also nervous, and said in a deep voice, "Since I have already


    announced the decision, I won''t take back my words. Whether you are willing to ept it or not, the


    Amery family will keep the room for you. You cane back to live at any time!"


    "Over the years, we didn''t know your existence. We''re family members who are very strange to you.


    However, even if you don''t want to live with us, don''t refuse the offer so quickly. Is that okay?"


    Tina kept silent for a few seconds and then nodded."... All right!"


    Her words seemed to have rxed Old Master Amery a lot. He recovered his smile and let


    everyone continue to enjoy the meal.


    Without Old Madam Amery, the atmosphere seemed to be much lighter.


    After the meal, Abby stood up gracefully and said with a smile, "I''m going to ask the cook to make


    something for grandaunt. I''ll go up to see her!"


    Old Master Amery was touched and said, "That''s nice!"


    Although Old Madam Amery lost her temper during the meal, Bill was still in a good mood. Finally,


    he had a meal with his daughter as he wished. He was very satisfied.


    After finishing her task of having a meal with them, Tina was ready to say goodbye and leave at any


    time.


    However, Lin came over and gently held her hand. "Tina, can you chat with me for a while?"


    Compared with all the other people in the Amery family, Tina felt it more rxed to get along with


    Lin.


    Moreover, Lin was her idol. It was hard to turn down her warm-hearted offer, so Tina nodded and


    said, "Okay!"


    Lin did not take her to the living room or bedroom. Instead, she took her through the back door and


    reached a closed ss courtyard.


    There were some wooden tables and chairs in the middle of the courtyard. Lin ordered the servants


    to get some scented tea and fruit.


    It was reallyfortable to sit in such a cozy environment to drink tea and chat in winter.


    The cobbled courtyard was carefully taken care of. There were various kinds of flowers and nts.


    On both sides of it nted luxuriant orchard grass and flowers of all colors. Although it was dark


    and cold outside, the ss courtyard was as warm as spring.


    Tina couldn''t help sighing. "This greenhouse is so amazing. It must have taken you a lot of effort to


    handle it!"


    "It''s really need some hard work!" Lin smiled.


    She designed most parts of the greenhouse. Whenever the bad-tempered Old Madam Amery made


    a terrible scene at home, it was the best peaceful ce for Lin and her husband to escape from her.


    After all, Old Madam Amery was allergic to pollen.


    Tina was attracted by several nts of magnolia at the right corner.


    Their branches and leaves were luxuriant, and the blooming flowers as white as snow looked so


    graceful.


    She was slightly stunned and looked at Lin beside her.


    Lin said slowly with a smile, "That''s Bill''s ce. He often read books under the tree. He told me that


    your mother loved magnolia the most, so he liked nting them. When we moved back from


    abroad, he specially asked people to move them here!"


    Tina felt a little relieved. Also, Lin''s generosity made her feel warm and fuzzy inside.


    Lin said, "Bill and I married for our family''s benefits. Before the marriage, we barely knew each


    other. Such a marriage is verymon in wealthy families. His parents required him to marry me,


    and I epted him because of my family."


    "At that time, I had no choice but toe to you when he needed you to do a bone marrow


    transnt operation.


    "He must have exchanged solemn vows with your mother. They were willing to have a child. After


    parting with her, he was disheartened and did not intend to have another child."


    "As for me, I was requested to marry him, so I didn''t want to have my own child, who would face the


    same fate as me in the future. Thus, we reached an agreement in this respect. For so many years,


    we have never had any child since we married. Tina, you are his only child!"


    Hearing that Lin emphasized that she was the only one, Tina felt some indescribable pressure fall


    on her and slightly pursed her lips.


    Lin, sensitive enough, didn''t want her to feel pressured, so she stopped and quickly began to talk


    about something else. "Tina, I have something to tell you!"


    Tina nodded. "Yes?"


    Lin looked at her and said seriously, "I saw your performance in the finals of the Grand Fashion


    Design Contest. That was the first time I saw you. I appreciated your design very much. You, tough


    and smart, are talented in fashion design. I''m wondering if you''re willing to be my disciple!"
