Uncovering My Wife's Secrets (Annalise and Julian) novel Chapter 66

Chapter 66 Doubted

Upon hearing Tony’s words, more people’s eyes flashed with curiosity.

There was a good show to watch!

They wondered what was in the jar.

Anyway, looking at the jar, it was small and old.

Thinking about it, it made sense. What kind of gift could a woman from the countryside like Annalise afford?

Initially, they thought Julian would help cover her. They did not expect that Julian would let this woman fool around.

Samuel glared at Tony sternly. “Whatever my granddaughter-in-law gave me, I’m happy.”

He felt that Julian was a little unreliable this time.

Before the birthday banquet, he even specially instructed Julian to prepare a gift for Annalise to bring. They had to make it through no matter what and not embarrass Annalise at the birthday banquet.

Julian told him not to worry. He said that the gift had been prepared by Annalise personally. The gift was good enough. Whoever dared to find fault would make a fool out of oneself.

He didn’t even dare to open this old jar.

Hearing his father’s words, Tony was even more confident that there was nothing good in the jar. Otherwise, Samuel would not need to cover up for Annalise.

He also knew that as Julian’s father, he would also be embarrassed if Annalise made a fool of himself in public.

However, he hated Annalise. As long as he embarrassed Annalise publicly, Julian might consider divorcing her after losing his reputation. Tony felt that it didn’t matter if he lost his reputation once. After all, the pros outweighed the cons.

Thinking of this, he said, “Dad, open it and take a look. You have opened everyone else’s gift. Everyone is curious.”

Samuel glared at Tony again. He wished he could retort, “Curious my ass!”

With so many people present, he could only smile and say, “It’s a gift from my obedient granddaughter-in-law. I don’t want to share my joy of opening it with everyone.”

“Samuel, it’s your birthday today. Everyone is here to join the merry. Let’s show everyone,” Julian said.

Old Mr. Parks looked at Julian in dissatisfaction. He thought to himself, “You’re the one who didn’t do your job well. Why are you still causing trouble?”

When he lifted his head, he was surprised to see Julian’s confident expression.

Julian nodded.

Samuel was even more surprised. He knew how reliable his grandson was. There was no reason for him to embarrass Annalise in public.

He looked at Annalise again and saw her calm expression.

He glared at Tony and said, “Open it and take a look then.”

As he spoke, he lifted the lid of the small jar.

Immediately, a fresh medicinal fragrance wafted out.

Samuel was even more surprised. He looked at Annalise. “What is this?”

“Samuel, this is the Energizing Pill,” Annalise explained.

Samuel was stunned. “Energizing Pill?”

Was it what he thought? Did she know someone who knew how to make elixir pills? Did such an expert teach her medical skills?

When the people around them heard the word “Energizing Pill”, they immediately gossiped.

“Pfft, Energizing Pill? What the hell?”

“I heard that old traditional medicine practitioner, who was especially awesome in the past, knew how to make elixir pills. Therefore, some aristocratic families also kept such pills. I’ve heard of some Energizing Pill and Longevity Pill.”
