Jenny worked at the power plant
With a stable job and no real stress, she was rather plump and cheerful. Today, she wore a bright green sweater and had her short hair styled in fluffy, wool–like curls, making her look like a robust Christmas
tree.
“What are you talking about? Can’t you speak properly? her second eldest uncle, Harold Sutton, asked as he gently pulled Jenny back
In contrast to Jenny’s plump figure, Harold was tall and slim. He wore a beige sweater with suit pants. His hair was slicked back in a shiny, well–groomed style. Even in his 50s, he showed no signs of aging and still looked quite dashing.
The Suttons had good genes, and Lionel’s brothers were all handsome.
When Jenny was tugged by her husband, she pouted and said, “What’s the big deal? I’m not saying anything wrong. Miranda hasn’t spent Christmas with us for years. It’s no issue for me, but Lionel and Mindy have really missed her.”
Jenny warmly approached Miranda and said, “No wonder they say women get more beautiful with age. You’ve been to the capital, and it really shows! You have such a refined grace compared to us small–town folks.”
Miranda wore a white long down coat, which she took off upon entering to reveal a beige sweater and a light brown wool skirt. She also had on brown knee–high boots.
Her hair was down with a bow headband holding the front strands in place. She looked fresh and elegant, with a sweet, creamy charm. It was no wonder Jenny praised her grace.
Quincey Sutton overheard her mother praising Miranda and muttered, “Mom, can you be quiet?”
Jenny shot her a look. “You’re always on your phone and complaining about me talking too much. You should learn from your sister. You could use some tips on fashion and
d style!”
Quincey wore a short, tight top with a checkered skirt and snow boots. Her heavy eye makeup gave her a bold look.
Unfortunately, she inherited Jenny’s build, with a plump waist and legs. Her outfit didn’t do much to balance her proportions.
Quincey seemed unaware of this and rolled her eyes in response to Jenny’s comment.
“Where’s Leonard?” Lionel asked, looking around but not seeing him.
Anna, who had been silent on the couch, spoke up, “Leonard is a businessman, so it’s normal for him to be busy. Let’s not rush him. We can wait until he’s finished before starting the meal.”
“Exactly, George agreed, “We can wait. It’s not like we’re starving.”
Rena looked uncomfortable. “Is that really okay?”
