Chapter 1803
Old Madam Amery cleared her throat and said, "Abby was taken to the Amery family by me when she was seven years old. We watched her grow up together! You two don't have children. All these years, she is the only children of the Amery family. I'm not lonely to have her to please me. I plan to let you adopt her as your daughter!"
Lin and Bill were both stunned.
Old Madam Amery had mentioned it once when she brought Abby to the Amery family. It did not occur to them that she would mention it again.
After hearing this, Abby was also stunned. She could not help but clench the chopsticks in her hands, and she felt nervous and excited in her heart.
Lin and Bill looked at each other, and the latter smiled and said, "Mom, this matter has been discussed before. Abby grew up in the Amery family, and she has changed her surname. There is really no need to do this!"
Lin nodded and echoed, "Yes, Bill and I have always regarded Abby as our own child!"
The couple knew Old Madam Amery very well. It was obvious that she mentioned it on the spur of the moment.
Bill said, "So Mom, forget it!"
Old Madam Amery's eyes widened. "What do you mean? Do you disagree with my words?"
Lin quickly explained, "Mom, that's not what we meant. It's just that everyone knows the identity of Abby, and we never treat her as an outsider..."Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Old Madam Amery's face darkened all of a sudden, and she rebuked her deliberately. "Then why didn't you do what I said? I think you are deliberately making me angry!"
Old Master Amery, who had been silent for a long time, said in a dignified voice, "All right. Stop to eat!"
Old Madam Amery was a proud young lady when she was young. When she was old, her temper became more mean. However, in front of Old Master Amery, she still dared not be arrogant.
Abby had been holding the chopsticks in her hands tightly. At this moment, she said with a smile, "Grandaunt, I know that you love me. Uncle and aunt are right. There is no need to do anything more. I am very satisfied now!"
Hearing that, Old Madam Amery immediately said, "All right!"
Seeing this, Old Master Amery was satisfied with Abby's sensibleness.
This small episode soon passed.
After the meal, Old Master Amery and Old Madam Amery went upstairs to take a nap. After sending the two old men to the room in person, Abby also went back to her room.
As soon as the door closed, her face darkened.
She had been looking forward to it in vain.
Abby's heart was full of indignation.
She didn't expect that Old Madam Amery would suddenly ask Bill and Lin to adopt her while having a deal, nor did she expect that the couple would directly refuse without hesitation.
To the outside, she was indeed the only young lady of the Amery family.
But what was the use of this? Everyone knew who she really was, and they also knew that Bill and Lin treated her like their own daughter. But after all, she was not. If she was adopted, the result would be different...
This was the goal she had been dreaming of and working hard for since she entered the Amery Family.
With a fierce look in her eyes, Abby raised her hand angrily and threw the antique vase on the bedside cabinet to the ground.
"Bang—"
With a loud sound, the vase broke into pieces.
Two minutes later, a servant knocked on the door and came in.
Abby raised her hand and tidied up her slightly messy hair by her ear, saying with a dignified and gentle smile, "When I took my things just now, I accidentally pushed the porcelain vase to the ground. You clean it up later!"
"It didn't hurt you, did it? I'll clean it up right away!" the servant immediately said.
Abby nodded with a smile. "I'm fine. Thank you for your hard work!"
Hearing her soft voice, the servant quickly said, "It doesn't matter, Miss. This is what I should do!"
The servant watched Abby gracefully walk into the locker room. She felt that the young lady of the Amery family in front of her was very kind. Every time she faced the servant, she would smile.
In the afternoon, the shopping mall was the most popular.
Tina made an appointment with Malee and went shopping with Isla.
Since she recovered and was discharged from the hospital, Isla had been living like an ordinary child, and no one could tell that she was once a sick kid.
The season was about to change. A lot of new products were displayed in the counter. After shopping for half a day, they bought a lot.
There was an open garden on the top floor of the mall, where they could have afternoon tea.
On the seventh floor, there was a glass room. It is a good place to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the city.
They chose their seats and ordered some drinks and snacks.
The coffee shop was decorated very casually. It was full of green plants everywhere. In addition to power supply, each table was equipped with magazines, books, and newspapers to entertain guests.
There were a lot of shopping bags behind the chair.
Malee glanced at them and teased her deliberately. "It's really different now that you've become the president's wife. You're so generous!"
Tina blushed and explained, "Many of them were bought for Wilson!"
Malee blinked at her. "Where's the diamond ring? Why didn't you wear it?"
Tina did not hide the marriage promise from Malee. At this time, she was asked about it. With a shy look on her face, she said in a low voice, "It's too big. I'm afraid I'll lose it, so I put it at home."
Malee burst into laughter.
Tina lowered her head in embarrassment.
Isla had been lowering her head and eating cake. After eating up all the chocolate on the cake, she looked up and saw Malee staring blankly at the newspaper in her hand. She tilted her head and asked curiously, "Aunt Malee, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing that, Tina also looked over. "Malee?"
Malee's face slowly turned pale. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine... I'm fine!"
Tina frowned.
She reached out and snatched the newspaper from Malee's hand. Only then did she realize that there was a report about Hayden on it.
It said that the top lawyer Hayden was going to get married, and there was a photo next to the report. In the photo, Hayden was holding a woman in his arms in the night of Wall Street.
It was not the beautiful woman with blond hair and blue eyes they had seen last time, but a new face. She was tall and slim, and looked like a mixed-blood. Her facial features were deep and beautiful.
Tina widened her eyes and looked at it twice before saying, "What's going on? Is Mr. Chiang getting married?"
Malee twitched the corner of her mouth. "Maybe..."
She lowered her head, picked up the juice next to her with both hands, drank it all in one gulp, and then shivered.
Seeing this, Tina couldn't help holding her hand. "Malee, are you very sad?"
"No, I'm not sad at all!" Malee quickly shook her head and said in a light voice, "I'm actually very happy. If he really getting married, then it's good for me. I can be completely free and I don't have to afraid that I won't escape from his cage anymore!"
After she said that, she forced a smile at Tina, but she did not look relaxed at all. On the contrary, she looked uglier than crying.
