Chapter 186


    Jared took Agnes’ hand and announced, “Yes, I’m married”


    Anna eximed with surprise, “But she looks so young!”


    Jaredughed and said, “I just have a thing for young, pretty girls. What’s wrong with that?”


    Agnes nearlyughed out loud. He actually said that out loud!


    Her mood brightened a lot.


    Jared always cared about her feelings.


    Alyssa chuckled, “You announce it to everyone you meet. The whole world knows you’re married now,


    stop bragging.”


    From start to finish, Anna and Ryder didn’t interact.


    Ever since Jared announced his marriage, Anna seemed a lot quieter.


    Ryder was like a ghost, silently eating his food.


    Agnes really loved oysters. When there was only one oyster left on the te, both Agnes and Ryder


    reached for it.


    Agnes paused and withdrew her hand. Ryder took the oyster without any hesitation and put it on his


    te.


    Alyssa, who was sitting beside them, saw this.


    She scolded Ryder, “How could you be so thoughtless?” N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    Ryder acted as if he didn’t hear her.


    Agnes quickly said, “It’s okay, I’m Ryder’s aunt, I should let him have it.”


    Ryder’s hand paused noticeably.


    Actually, Agnes knew Ryder did it on purpose.


    When there were many oysters before, he didn’t eat any, but he just had to fight her for thest one.


    Ryder was just unhappy with her, both at school and at home.


    Agnes was really angry inside. She knew Ryder was particrly bothered by the fact that she was his


    aunt, so she decided to suppress him with her status as an elder. Sure enough, Ryder suddenly said,


    “I’m done eating, I’m going back to my room.”


    After finishing his sentence, he got up and left.


    Actually, this was not the first time this had happened. Many times before, as long as she was present,


    Ryder would leave early. The fact that he stayed until the end of dinner today was already quite rare.


    The Whitfield family all thought that Ryder was just going through puberty, so they didn’t pay much


    attention to it.


    After dinner-Wace and Tim were chatting in the study.


    Anna took Agnes to chat in the yard.


    Jared went upstairs to Ryder’s room.


    Ryder was in his room writing a report.


    F


    Looking at the professional data on theputer, he felt so annoyed for the first time that he couldn’t


    even read a single word. Jared walked in. Ryder was surprised, “Why are you here?”


    Jared walked over to Ryder and handed him a small rectangr ck box, “This is a gift I brought back


    for you from myst business trip. Ryder opened the box and saw a ck fountain pen inside.


    Jared asked, “Do you like it?”


    Ryder smiled and said, “You’ve shaped my taste since I was young. I like anything you choose.”


    Jared casually said. “Then why don’t you like the aunt I chose for you?”


    Ryder seemed to pause for a moment. He quietly closed the box.


    Casually sitting on Ryder’s desk, Jared calmly asked, “Can you tell me why you don’t like Agnes?”
