Uncovering My Wife's Secrets (Annalise and Julian) novel Chapter 263

Annalise refused to accept the ancient jewelry. “Grandpa, I can’t accept such a precious thing.” “Silly child, take it.” Old Mr. Xander took Annalise’s hand and stuffed the box into her hands. Annalise refused to accept the gift. Old Mr. Xander pretended to be angry. “If you don’t take it, it’ll be a pity if it broke.”

“Grandpa, I really can’t accept it.” Annalise could not accept such a valuable thing. It would be fine if she was the Xander family’s bloodline. But, she knew that she was not. How could she accept it? Nancy saw that Samuel kept insisting Annalise take the ancient jewelry even after Annalise refused the gift. Anger filled in Annalise’s heart. Nancy thought, “Well, could it be because she isn’t his biological granddaughter? “Could it be?” They were both Samuel’s biological granddaughters. Samuel would not allow wanted to give it to Annalise.

The more Nancy thought about it, the angrier she became! Lee had been bedridden for 20 years. What contribution did he give to the Xander family? The fruits that the Xander family was enjoying now were the labors of her immediate family. Just as Nancy was about to speak, she heard Lee say, “Anna, please accept it. It’s Old Mr. Xander’s kind intentions. Don’t make an old man anxious. Just take it that you’re temporarily keeping it for Old Mr. Xander.”

Annalise was in a difficult position. Julian also smiled and said, “Yes, please accept it and keep it for Old Mr. Xander.” Annalise could not refuse anymore. She took the box with both hands and said respectfully, “Thank you, Grandpa!” The more Samuel looked at Annalise, the more he liked her. Most importantly, he realized that Annalise not only looked like Lee, but her personality and behavior were similar to Lee’s.

After Annalise accepted the box, Sámuel smiled lovingly. “No need to thank me. Anna, we’ll organize a banquet for you tonight. Let’s catch up as a family. In the future, you spend more time in the house. Julian, please come here often with Anna.” OldMr. “Sure, Old Mr. Xander!” Julian replied with a smile. When Nancy saw this scene, she really could not take it anymore. She felt like her heart, liver, spleen, and lungs were going to explode with anger. She forced a smile and said, “Grandpa, I’m meeting a few friends over there. I’ll leave first. Let’s have a banquet for Anna tonight” With that, she left immediately.

She had asked this question countless times. She did not understand when she was young, but she could see the situation better when she grew up. Jimmy was very cowardly and always listened to Lily. He could not be compared with her biological father at all. Lily’s expression darkened again. “Children shouldn’t interfere in adults’ matters.” Nancy rolled her eyes speechlessly. “Mom, I’m 25 years old this year.”

Lily said in a deep voice, “From now on, don’t mention your bone marrow donation to anyone. Don’t mention my past marriage “But Lee, he…” “No-buts!” Lily’s tone became domineering. “Oh, I understand.” Nancy compromised. She had been living with her mother for more than 20 years and knew her mother’s personality. Ever since she was young, her mother had doted on her very much. Her mother fulfilled almost all her requests. Yet, her mother could be very firm in certain matters.

Once her mother firmly said no, it meant it was a taboo or red zone for her. Seeing that her daughter was obedient, Lily’s expression softened. She said gently, “I’m doing this for your good.” “I know.” Nancy pouted. Lily asked again, “The Xander family will hold a dinner banquet for Annalise, right?” At the mention of this, Nancy chuckled again. “That’s right. She’s so precious. Not only is there a banquet, but she’s also staying at the Xander family for a long term.” “Nancy, you have to be friendly to Annalise. I don’t care what you’re thinking, but you Look at how behave in the Zeller family. What did I do? I was friendly and polite to everyone in the Zeller family.

“Sometimes, not getting into a fight was the greatest weapon. “Which daughter-in-law of the wealthy families managed obtained company shares? I now own 20% of the Zeller Corporation’s shares. ‘Mom, I understand.” Although Nancy agreed, she cursed in her heart, “Not getting into a fight. Julian has already become someone else’s husband. If i don’t fight, Julian will have a child soon.”
