Chapter 191 Old Mrs. Riley Doted on Her Daughter-in-Law and Dealt with the Bully
As soon as Logan finished speaking, old Mrs. Riley left the house and called out joyfully.
“Adeline.”
Adeline bowed and lowered the ramp of Curtis''s car, then she tied his wheelchair securely and began to push him down.
Hearing that old Mrs. Riley calling for her, her body instinctively trembled.
After she managed tond Curtis on the ground, she turned around and responded, "Grandma."
Old Mrs. Riley warmly shook Adeline''s hand, smiling as she examined Adeline more closely. She was very pleased to see her.
She turned her head and scolded Logan, "Don''t you see that your Uncle Curtis is here? Why don''t you offer to help? Look at how considerate Adeline
is. She knows the importance of respecting the elderly and caring for the young even though she was young."
Then, she tured to Curtis and said, "Look at you. Adeline is so considerate. You, as the elder, don''t seem to know how to take care of others. Look
how cold these little hands are."
Curtis was speechless.
At the same time, Alston and Yetta, who were also there to make sure nothing had happened, almost choked on their saliva when they heard old Mrs.
Riley''s words.
Alston repeated with a faint smile, "Yes, she''s very respectful to the elderly and caring for the young.”
Adeline didn''t say anything.
Old Mrs. Riley took Adeline by the hand and walked away while she was saying, "Stop standing there. I had Shaylee prepare some hot soup to keep
you all warm. Everyone, go inside and have some before sleeping.”
The others moved towards the dining table.
Victoria, who was worried that something might go wrong, hurriedly put on her coat and came downstairs.
Vi, who was lodging there temporarily also came down and called sweetly, “Grandma.”
"What makes you here?” Old Mrs. Riley''s expression turned cold
"It was Aunt who invited me to Uncle''s birthday party. She was concerned that my sister would be ufortable on her own here, so she invited me
to apany her," while Vi was speaking, she was looking at Victoria
Victoria replied with a smile, "That''s right, Mom. I was worried that Adeline would be alone.”
"Oh? So, are you saying that nobody in this house can keep herpany now?" Old Mrs. Riley raised her eyebrow, her tone tinged with sarcasm as
she nced at Victoria.
"This year, your husband''s birthday party is low-key, just for the family to gather. As the wife, shouldn''t you have a sense of propriety?”
Victoria tried to joke and make herself less embarrassed, “Mom, where are these wordsing from? Vi and Adeline are sisters. She is part of the
family too.”
Old Mrs. Riley snorted, "It''s right that they are sisters, but there are distinctions in closeness. It''s fine for her toe and have a meal. We can afford
this little meal expense. What I''m afraid of is that some people''s ambitions soar to the sky while their abilities are paper-thin. yet they still think they
can achieve the impossible."
Adeline was shocked
Old Mrs. Riley was very blunt with her words!
Vi''s expression looked awkward, and she wished she could find a hole to hide in it.
Victoria''s expression froze too and was finding it difficult to respond.
Seeing old Mrs. Riley holding Adeline''s hand throughout the conversation, Victoria felt somewhat annoyed.
"Mom, Vi was invited by me. Isn''t
it a bit disresGectful to me for you to
act this way? Besides, Viand =.
Adeline @e biological sisters. Yous
have been holding onto one of their
handsince you entered the house
while speaking so harshly tothe
other one. Don''t you find that you
are a bit over?"
Victoria''s words made Adeline realize that old Mrs. Riley had been holding her hand since she arrived and felt somewhat embarrassed. She wanted
to pull her hand away.
Old Mrs. Riley held onto it firmly and responded determinedly.
“That''s what I prefer!"
Victoria was speechless.
"I find Adeline very pleasing!"
Victoria didn''t know what to say.
"When Adeline gets married, I even want to give her a share of my assets!"
Hearing that, Victoria’s expression darkened slightly.
‘Furthermere, Adeline saved my life.
in the past If I don''t treat her well
and treat others well, wouldn''t it be a
disgrace? People might say that as
an.olddy, I have no conscience."
Victor clenched her fists and didn''t dare to say a word.
Old Mrs. Riley gave Vi a casual nce. Then, she told Victoria with a tone of admonition as if teaching the younger generation.
‘Self-awareness and self-respect are
valuable traits: If everyone practices
them in thei? daily life, no one will
ever look down upon them. Victor,
you reolder but still inexperienced in
assessing people. I don''t me you.
Lean it from me in the future."
"Alright," Victoria gritted her teeth in response.
Adeline was shocked to see Victoria being humiliated like that.
Old Mrs. Riley''s words were exceptionally powerful!
She managed to criticize Victoria for being so unwise as well as her old age indirectly!Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.
She subconsciously nced at Curtis, who happened to be looking at her.
Curtis said internally, "Look. That''s how impressive our mom is."
Adeline seemed to read those words which were on Curtis''s mind and blushed slightly.
Old Mrs. Riley keenly caught the exchange of nces between the two and thought to herself.
"Why do they look sweet?"
