Uncovering My Wife's Secrets (Annalise and Julian) novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 What A Cute Old Lady

Before Annalise could speak, Julian spoke first. “Yes, Aunt Cassandra. She’s my wife, Annalise.”

“I heard that you’re from the countryside?” Cassandra looked at Annalise and asked, her tone carrying a hint of scrutiny.

“Yes,” Annalise replied in neither a servile nor overbearing manner.

There were many young men and women sitting on the sofa. Abigail, Alexander, and Tony were also there.

Hearing Cassandra’s question, everyone turned to look at Annalise. Their eyes were filled with mockery and schadenfreude, especially Abigail’s. The schadenfreude in her eyes was the most obvious.

“I heard you can’t read?” Cassandra asked again.

“Cassandra!” Julian raised her voice slightly.

Cassandra had always been very good to him and never got involved in Parks Group’s affairs, so he had always respected her.

However, this did not mean that she could bully his wife at will.

Cassandra glared at Julian and suddenly took out a calligraphy painting from behind her. She unfolded it and said to Annalise, “Read it to me!”

Annalise looked at the calligraphy painting and read it out loud. “To enjoy a grander sight, climb to a greater height.”

Cassandra suddenly stood up, giving Annalise a fright. What was this old woman trying to do?

Julian also subconsciously stood in front of Annalise.

But Cassandra didn’t look at Annalise. Instead, she aimed the calligraphy painting at Abigail and the other youngsters who were sitting on the sofa.

She shook the calligraphy painting in her hand majestically, making it rustle. Then, she said, “Look at it clearly. This poem was written in cursive writing, but Annalise read them word for word. As someone who can even read cursive writing, what makes you think she’s illiterate?”

“You’re all members of the Parks family, so every word and action of yours represents the Parks family. I think you should know very well how others see us.”

“We are the most powerful family in Jadeborough. In fact, we are the most powerful family in Chanaea, and I’m not bragging. In the eyes of others, we’re a mythical existence.”

“I hope that every single one of us can live up to our name. Members of an aristocratic family should behave accordingly, as is expected of us. Not everyone is guaranteed success, but at the very least, we need to practice good values and have good judgment.”

“Don’t live like a parrot without a brain, where one only knows how to echo what others say.”

“Well said, Cassandra!” Samuel praised.

“Cassandra is right,” Julian immediately uttered.

Annalise was still wary of this old lady just now and did not like her. Now, she found the old lady cute all of a sudden.

Annalise glanced at her and saw a few veins bulging on her forehead. She frowned slightly.

When the time came, she would ask Julian if she needed to treat Cassandra.

Alexander also said to Cassandra, “Great Aunt is right. I will definitely remember your advice.”

He tugged on Abigail’s hand. Abigail could only force a smile and say, “I will definitely remember your words.” Cassandra said in a dignified manner, “Although Julian is not the oldest in your generation, he is the Parks family’s only legitimate grandson. I hope that everyone is clear about Julian’s identity and their own identity.” “As a descendant of the Parks family, all of you are aware of what you should or shouldn’t do.”

“It doesn’t matter if Annalise is from Harington or from the countryside. Since she is married to Julian, she is the Parks family’s legitimate granddaughter-in-law.”

“If I hear anyone gossiping and spreading rumors behind my back again, I’ll just beat them to death. After all,

1 have a bad temper.”

As she said this, she even picked up the walking stick by the sofa and waved it. Her aura was dignified and scary.
