Chapter 24 Chris’ Feelings For You
During the evening in the Sce residence, Winnie yed in the yard with her grandson, Alex.
‘Mrs. Sce, Ms. Johnson is here.” A maid came over and informed.
Hearing this, Winnie turned her head and saw Annabelle, in a green satin dress, jogging over while
smiling. “Aunt Winnie, I miss you so much!” Annabelle stepped forward and hugged Winnie.
Winnie pretended to be angry and snorted. She patted Annabelle on the back. “You’re such a slick
talker. If you really missed me, why didn’t youe to see me? I even had to make a call to invite you
over.” Annabelle let go of Winnie and sat down in the chair next to her. “I’m busy recently.” Winnie said,
“How can you get busy with your work? Isn’t your working time flexible?”
Annabelle poured herself a cup of coffee and said, “I have a part-time job recently.” Winnie asked,
“Why do you still work part-time? Do you not have enough money?”
Annabelle replied, “No. I’m doing a friend a favor. Something happened to her family, so she asked me
to help her for a while.”
Winnie said, “I see. If you don’t have enough money, tell me. Don’t overwork yourself.”
Annabelle smiled yfully and said, “I know you care for me the most, Aunt Winnie.”
“Aunt Annabelle!” Alex rushed over in a flushed and sweaty state.
Annabelle caught him, who ran into her arms, and pretended to be angry. “Alex, you stained my dress.
You have to buy me a new one!”
“Haha…” Alex giggled and deliberately rubbed his sweat on Annabelle’s body.
Annabelle pinched his nose and said, “Our Alex is getting naughtier, just like your Uncle Chris!”
Winnie smiled, “That is so true. Alex is as mischievous as Chris was when he was a child. Luckily,
there was Ken to keep him in check.”
After chatting about Alex for a while, Winnie suddenly changed the topic and said, “Annabelle, you’re
26 this year, right?”
Annabelle poked Alex’s face and said casually, “Aunt Winnie, you can’t ask about a woman’s age
casually. However, my birthday is indeed soon. Are you going to prepare a birthday gift for me, Aunt
Winnie?”
Winnie said, “How can I miss your gift?” She paused and took a sip of her coffee. ncing at
Annabelle, she continued, “You and Chris are both 26 years old this year. You’re both getting old.
Shouldn’t you consider settling down?”
Annabelle was silent for a while. Then, she curled her lips and said with a smile, “Aunt Winnie, how is
26 years old considered old? I’m still a beautiful young girl now!”
Winnie said, “That’s not what I mean. You also know that my health has not been very good in the past
two years. If you and Chris don’t settle down, how can I be at ease?”
Annabelle smiled and did not answer.
Winnie observed her expression and continued, “All of us can see Chris’ feelings for you. I’m his
mother, and I know that he is umitted and had done a lot of bad things. However, his feelings for
you are wless. Annabelle, if you marry Chris, you’ll be putting one of my worries to rest.”
Alex was delighted. “Aunt Annabelle, are you going to marry Uncle Chris?”
Winnie smiled at Alex and said, “Will Alex be happy if Aunt Annabelle marries Uncle Chris?”
Alex jumped up happily. “Of course, I’m happy! Then I can often see Aunt Annabelle.”

nor agreed with Alex’s words.
