"Nonsense!"
Rickey moved his crutch, but the sound was not loud. He frowned and looked at Daryl, saying angrily, "You did looked unhappy just now!"
Daryl touched her face doubtfully. She wondered whether she was really like that just now.
"Grandpa, you are wrong."
Daryl said quickly after she subdued her emotion.
"Why can you just admit that you are jealous?" Rickey was furious.
"Well, you are right."
Daryl was afraid that she would make Rickey mad again, so she admitted it eventually.
"Ha-ha, that's right!"
Rickey smoothed his beard and approached her. He smiled and said, "Do you think that Zack is more suitable for that girl?"
All of a sudden, Daryl felt that Rickey was here to give her a blow on purpose.
"Oh, yes. So what?"
She cupped her chin and said in a dissatisfied and helpless tone.
"Aren't you going to get Zack back?"
Rickey raised his eyebrows and asked, "You are his wife on his household register!"
Hearing this, Daryl thought that what Rickey said was a little reasonable, but soon she looked at him in confusion.
"Well, Grandpa, didn't you refuse to admit my identity in this family before?"
Rickey was stunned, and his face instantly darkened. He pretended to be serious and coughed, "Ahem, I'm just curious, but I didn't say that I would recognize you!"
"Fine."
Daryl took a look at Rickey and felt that he was the same as Zack, who liked to say one thing and mean another.
"Okay, okay. We've been waiting for a long time. We can have dinner now."
After Karla finished her work, she called them to have dinner together.
Daryl stood up and was about to walk towards the dining table, but she saw Rylee pulled Alina to Zack, talking and laughing.
There was a flash of disappointment in her eyes. She knew what kind of person Zack was. If he didn't like someone, he would definitely stay away from them.
But he had never rejected Alina since he entered the room...
Somehow, a strange feeling flashed through Daryl's mind. She quickly subdued it and continued to follow Rickey towards the dining table.
"Oh, Zack, you can sit with Alina. Every time she comes to our house, she is always standing on ceremony and is too shy to pick up food with her chopsticks. It's convenient for you to take care of her if you sit next to her."
Rylee said with a smug smile. After that, she specially looked in the direction of Daryl.
Unfortunately, Daryl looked indifferent and casually sat down next to the two kids, Benjamin and Westley.
Zack took a deep look at Daryl. Seeing that there was really no change in her expression, he felt even more aggrieved!
He had planned to ignore her for a while to see her response, but he didn't expect her to be so calm!
"What's wrong? Do you want to see her get angry and jealous?"
Alina whispered to him.
"No."
Zack denied.
"Not? You couldn't even take your eyes off her."
With a smile at the corners of her mouth, Alina teased, "Hey, are you really in love? That's a big news."
Glancing at her indifferently, Zack said, "As a guest, can you be quiet?"
