Chapter 69 Let''s Have a ss Gathering


    After sitting down, he drank a few mouthfuls of fish soup and then frowned. Compared with the fresh


    noodles soup, the taste of the fish soup was obviously much stronger.


    Suddenly, Beau Wright lost his appetite. He put the bowl on the table, got up, and walked upstairs.


    Looking at his back, Lainey Brown asked in surprise, "Beau, aren''t you having dinner?"


    "I still have some documents to deal with..." He did not stand still, nor did he look back. His tall and


    straight figure disappeared from the stairwell.


    Mary Wright noticed that his gaze had never stopped on her from beginning to end. Even though it had


    only been a moment, it had never happened.


    The indescribable disappointment and bitterness gathered in her heart. She lost her appetite. After


    drinking half a bowl of porridge, she found an excuse and went upstairs.


    Lainey Brown watched quietly with a faint smile on her delicate and elegant face.


    Of course, she didn''t like Harriet Smith. The woman who used the baby to seduce a man was never a


    good woman.


    Butpared with Mary Wright, she was still more biased towards Harriet Smith.


    She hated Mary Wright. It could be described as disgust!


    Mary Wright was self-righteous, vengeful, and ungrateful...


    Although she was adopted by Cromwell Wright, Lainey Brown had also done a lot of things for her over


    the years!


    However, she was really shameless to seduce Beau!


    She had watched Mary and Beau grow up. When it came to Mary, she was more like her own daughter.


    Which woman could stand her daughter falling in love with her son?


    "Can Mary Wright stand up to her, Lainey Brown?"


    Just at the dining table, Beau just asked where Harriet Smith was and didn''t look at her. This change


    was very good.


    There was a stack of documents brought back from thepany. Beau Wright leaned against the sofa


    and signed on the documents.


    It was arge room, but only his breathing could be heard. Other than that, there was the rustling


    sound of signing.


    After a while, he frowned slightly and looked up at the room. It seemed that something was missing.


    In the past, he had never felt that the room was so empty.


    asionally, Harriet Smith would make some sounds, like drinking water, turning the pages, or


    walking.


    Those messy sounds made him extremelyfortable...


    His slender fingersnded impatiently between his eyebrows. He rubbed them, closed the documents


    with his big hand, pushed them away, and went to the bathroom.


    He had been in a bad state tonight and always felt a little annoyed...


    In another room.


    The next day.


    Harriet Smith got up very early and woke up at seven o''clock. Then she wanted to go for a walk in the


    park near themunity.


    But before she walked out of the room, Vera Brion chased after her. "I''ll go with you."


    "Do you know where I am going?" Harriet Smith put on her hat and looked at her.


    "Of course, I know. Isn''t it just a park downstairs? I''ll go too. I''m pregnant now. I want the baby to


    breathe more fresh air."


    Looking at her own belly, Vera Brion said with a smile.


    Hearing this, Harriet Smith felt that Vera Brion had really changed a little. Perhaps it was because she


    was pregnant, so she began to focus her attention from gambling to the baby. This was undoubtedly a


    good beginning and a good change.


    The two of them went to the park side by side. Before the sun rose, the air was unusually humid.


    On the leaves, there was still some white mist that hadn''t dispersed. The air that was sucked into their


    mouth was so fresh and moist, even though it was cold.


    But along the way, Vera Brion kept chattering like a sparrow, never closing her mouth from beginning to


    end.


    "Harriet, I just want to say that your mother-inw is obviously not a good person." Vera Brion cursed


    loudly.


    Harriet Smith smiled and said, "You only met her once, are you so clear about her?"


    "I''m not sure about anything else, but I''m good at knowing people. I hate her at first nce. She has a


    sharp face, willow-shaped eyebrows, and thin lips. Although she looks beautiful, graceful, and


    luxurious, she looks very mean." Vera Brion said clearly.


    Hearing this, the corner of Harriet Smith''s mouth twitched, but she didn''tment. She just asked,


    "What about Mary?"


    "Mary..." Vera Brion paused for a moment and said, "I think she''s a good person. Compared to your


    mother-inw, she''s much better. She''s gentle, virtuous, sensible, sophisticated and so beautiful. She''s


    so fairy that all women envy her!"


    Without saying a word, she just listened quietly, asionally stretching her waist.


    Just then, a male voice came over. "Harriet Smith!"

    Stunned, she turned around and saw a tall man standing behind her. He showed his white teeth and


    was smiling at her.


    He was tall and burly, who was wearing sportswear, just like Aniston Jennifer. He had a square face


    and looked very heroic.


    He did look familiar, but she couldn''t remember him no matter how hard she tried. There was no


    memory of him in her mind.


    After thinking for a long time, Harriet Smith still couldn''t figure it out. Finally, she gave up and asked,


    "Who are you?"


    “I am Peter Johns, your high school ssmate who was always sitting at your back table. Do you


    remember?" He looked at her eagerly.


    The name of Peter Johns was very special. When he said this, Harriet Smith thought of it and smiled.


    "It''s you. I remember that you used to blush."


    Hearing this, Peter Johns smiled and touched his hair awkwardly. "What do you do?"


    "A teacher, and you?"


    "A police."


    Harriet Smith sneered andughed, "You really deserve your name. Peter Johns, your parents are


    really farsighted to hope you protect your country."


    Peter Johns smiled shyly and seemed to have thought of something. He said, "By the way, Harriet, do


    you have time the night after tomorrow?"


    Instantly, he changed the address from Harriet Smith to Harriet, which seemed a little more intimate


    and no longer so rusty.


    She did not notice the details and asked, "Is there something wrong?"


    "The day after tomorrow, our high school ssmates will have a gathering. Only our students will be


    here. Come with us."


    "I still don''t want to go. I haven''t seen them for a long time. It''s very embarrassing to go like this." She


    smiled and refused.


    The main reason was that they hadn''t contacted each other in high school for several years, and their


    rtionship had be very strange. If she went there, it would have awkward pauses...


    "What''s there to be embarrassed about? Cami Kents looks for you every year at the party, and


    Juliana Scott. Besides, they are all ssmates of ss One. It''s been so many years since west


    met. Don''t you miss them at all?"


    Anyway, Harriet Smith had nothing to do that day. Now that he had said so, it was not convenient for


    her to refuse. "Okay, I''ll go."


    Peter Johns looked pleasant. "Well, we are in the Charmed Bar. It''s eight o''clock in the evening, or I''ll


    <pe to pick you up."
