No Remarriage for us Stay Away (Lenora and Zachary) novel Chapter 482

Chapter 482 Feel Ashamed
Dorothy, Isla, and Zephyr were already waiting in the living room.

The speaker was Dorothy. Upon noticing someone entering from outside, she looked at Harrietta, and her eyes lit up instantly.

“You're my great-aunt, right? Thanks for the compliment, Great-aunt Dorothy,” the little girl said with a laugh, flashing a few of her pearly baby teeth.

“Oh! Such a sensible child. Come over here and let me have a look at you.”

Harrietta, undaunted, walked over and sweetly said, “Great-aunt Dorothy, are you from the same generation as my grandma? You look so much younger than her.”

If Tamara, who was being dragged to the airport, heard that, she would be speechless.

Dorothy burst into laughter, pulling out a monetary gift from her pocket. “What a sweet talker you are! Here you go. This is a little something from me as a first-meeting gift. Take it.”

“Thank you, Great-aunt Dorothy. Great-aunt Dorothy, I'm sending you a heart.”

Feeling the thickness of the monetary gift, Harrietta smiled even wider.

The atmosphere in the living room became warm and cozy.

“Hattie, I'm going to call your great-uncle downstairs,” Dorothy said as she got up to go upstairs.

Zachary glanced at Zephyr on the opposite couch. “This is...”

Taking advantage of the situation, Isla said, “This is my brother, Zephyr. Hattie, this is your uncle.”

Zachary raised an eyebrow before letting his gaze fall.

He had met Isla's brother, who seemed to be Sophia's ex-boyfriend of mixed heritage, once in Newcove.

“Hello, Uncle Zephyr,” Harrietta greeted Zephyr politely as she looked at him.

“Hello. This is a greeting gift from me,” Zephyr said, patting her head gently as he handed over the monetary gift.

Harrietta took it and gave it a squeeze. It's really thick!

She was grinning from ear to ear when she said, “Thank you, Uncle Zephyr. You're the best, Uncle Zephyr.”

With a smile, Zephyr asked, “Hattie, I heard you grew up in Lofbury?”

“Yes.”

“You should be able to adapt to life in Muprary. Would you like to go to Fairlake with me? My family is quite wealthy, and your granddad and granny would also provide you with many monetary gifts,” Zephyr uttered openly in front of Zachary.

Zachary's expression turned slightly solemn. “That won't be necessary.”

Zephyr glanced up at him, a hint of disdain visible in his eyes behind his glasses. “What's the rush, Mr. Fuller? Hattie hasn't even spoken yet.”

“Zephyr...” Isla frowned, desperately signaling Zephyr with her eyes.

“I don't want to go!” Harrietta pouted at Zephyr. “Uncle Zephyr, don't pick on Uncle Zachary.”

“You're quite defensive, aren't you?”

“That's right.”

At that moment, Matthew and Dorothy descended from the upstairs.

Zachary introduced them, “Hattie, this is Matthew, your great-uncle.”

With the monetary gift clutched in her small hand, Harrietta looked up at her formidable great-uncle, blinking her eyes. She sweetly said, “Hello, Great-uncle Matthew.”

A warm smile spread across Matthew's face as he settled down on the couch. “Hello. You're Harrietta, right?”

“Yes.”

“How old are you?”

“I'm five.” Harrietta held up her tiny five fingers. “I'll be attending kindergarten in September.”

“Such a good girl.”

“Great-uncle Matthew?”

“Hmm?”

“Your monetary gift is peeking out from your pocket.”

“Haha! You cheeky girl.” Matthew laughed, handing over a thick monetary gift to Harrietta. “Here you go. I hope it's enough.”

Her hands were nearly too full to hold anything more. She squinted her eyes in laughter and said, “It's enough.”

“Uncle Zachary, could you hold these for me? Please, make sure not to lose them.” Harrietta handed over all the monetary gifts to Zachary.

“All right.”

Zachary slipped them into his pocket.
