Uncovering My Wife's Secrets (Annalise and Julian) novel Chapter 260

No, I just like orchids,” Lee said indifferently. He did not want to talk about the past, much less talk about it with Nancy. “Orchids are really beautiful,” Nancy said with a smile. “Yes,” Lée replied perfunctorily. Nancy tried to hold Lee’s hand again, but Lee avoided her move. He hated physical contact. When he saw the butler approaching, he strode over and instructed him, “During the speech by the Xander family, please allocate a few minutes for me. I have something very important to announce. I have very important people to thank.”

“Alright, alright,” the butler replied immediately when he heard Lee wanted to thank someone. When Nancy heard that Lee was going to publicly announce his gratitude to someone, she was very happy. She guessed that her uncle wanted to publicly thank her for donating her bone marrow back then. Although everyone knew that she was from both the Zeller and Xander family, nothing was more precious than having Lee thank her in public.

Thinking that Lee was going to thank her in public, Nancy felt that she should put on some performance Hence, she took the initiative to arrange a dance. She changed into her ethnic outfit and went up to dance. Her body was so pliable and her movement was gentle as the wind that she caught the eyes of countless men.

There were cheers and whistles below the stage. She looked down from the stage in the -direction of Julian. Julian did not look at the stage at all. He thoughtfully brought food to Annalise. The two of them lowered their heads and chatted away. Nancy could not help but feel angry. there something wrong with Julian’s eyesight? Was She then looked at Layla. Layla had passed by in front of Julian a few times, but Julian did not seem to be interested in Layla.

Did he not remember what happened back then? Or did he not realize that Layla used Orchid-style finger gestures whenever she performed acupuncture? After Nancy finished dancing and getting off the stage, she could not wait to call Layla. She asked Layla if Julian had seen Layla doing acupuncture. Layla was very certain that Julian was shocked when he saw her at the entrance of the washroom. Therefore, it was impossible that he did not notice her. He did not pay much attention to her after that. It was very likely that he was taking care of Annalise’s feelings. “Haha…” Nancy sneered.

Annalise was really lucky to be cherished by Julian. She was just a woman from the countryside who had some medical skills. Naney then instructed Layla to think of a way to fall in front of Julian and to test if Julian would help her up. She knew very well that Julian was extremely defensive against women. If an old man fell in front of him, he might help him up. If a woman fell in front of him, he would not even look at her. If he helped out Layla, that means he cared for her. Otherwise, Nancy would have to think of other measures. Upon receiving the instructions, Layla immediately held a glass of red wine in her left hand and a small plate of pastries in her right.
