Ice and Fire novel Chapter 707

Amy replied,"Okay, okay. Good kids. I'll be down there in a minute to open the door for you." Then she quickly put down the clothes in her hand and rushed downstairs.

When she opened the door, Amy saw Greg and Violet, and she immediately thought how handsome Greg was and knew that he was one of the best men amongst the new generation.

Greg greeted Amy, following Violet,"Hello, Aunt Amy."

"So you're Greg? You are so handsome and polite," Amy complimented Greg.

"Aunt Amy! Since Greg is here, you're totally ignoring me, aren't you?" Violet pouted. Usually, Amy would dote her and pay so much attention to her whenever they met. But this time, Greg sucked the air out of the room and Amy didn't even look at her.

Amy quickly said,"No, no, no. My baby daughter, you're the apple of my eye." She took Violet's arm and said,"Come in, come in. Don't just stand outside."

Violet said as she walked into the house,"Aunt Amy, I've bought so many things for you."

Amy replied,"You silly girl. Next time you come here with Greg, don't buy so much stuff. Your uncle and I don't need all these. We have everything we need at home." She didn't want the kids to spend money on her.

Violet said,"Don't say that, Aunt Amy. These are a token of our love for you. Besides, Greg and I didn't hold a proper wedding, so it's only natural that we come to visit uncle and you with gifts."

"Oh, you're always so sweet and sensible. Every time I see you, I feel immensely happy," Amy said, laughing.

Violet asked,"Are you not happy here?"

"Yes, I am. You know, Alice has gone abroad and she is not with me anymore. So I feel quite lonely at home. It's great that you often come here to see your uncle and me. We feel a little happy because of your frequent visits." It was a relief that Violet often visited her through the years and talked to her, which reminded her of her own daughter who was abroad.

Violet promised,"And I will continue to visit you both more often." She then sat with Amy on the couch.

Greg also sat next to them. When he saw how intimate Violet and Amy were, he felt that everyone around Violet were such nice people, and they were all good to Violet. They looked gracious and there was no separation amongst them.
