Chapter 16 Family Gathering (2/2)

Richie's cousin, Aron, had been living abroad for many years. Richie thought his cousin was a rare talent.

The man took the wine that Richie handed over and joked, ”Richie, why did you ask me to come here? Do you want me to be your next target?”

His auntie Wendy Su, Richie’s mother had been waiting for a grandchild for a long time, but her only son, Richie, hadn't been doing anything to introduce wife to her yet.

Richie took a sip of his wine, smiling silently.

At the dinner table of the Ye Clan, there were not many people to participate in the party. The one who was seated in the middle was the head of the family, Ronald Ye, Richie’s grandfather. The old man with gray hair looked ruddy and harmless wearing a green Tang robe.

”Why don't you bring Laura here? It's better to enhance our relationship.” Wendy Su looked at Richie who was sitting opposite to her. She frowned and looked him up and down seemed to dislike him.

She cared a lot about that girl, or perhaps her grandson.

In the old woman's faint gaze, Richie smiled and said, ”Mom can call her by yourself if you want. I don't have so much spare time to take care of that lady.”

The reason why he invited that woman to this family gathering was to indirectly acknowledge her identity.

Richie didn't think he was stupid enough to listen to his mother.

”Which lady? Can you meet someone more considerate than her?” Wendy Su frowned and wanted to correct him. There was a faint sense of pride in her tone.

It was as if the arrogant and approachable woman was the real piece of her flesh that fell down.

”Mom, as long as you are happy.” Richie shook his head and did not want to talk to her anymore. He lowered his eyes. The glazed lamp above his head could not cast into the darkness in his eyes.

Wendy Su could not say anything, but she was faint of anger, and she did not dare to lose her temper in front of Ronald Ye.

She held the knife in her hand, looking aggrieved.

Richie couldn't bear to see her like this. He kicked the man who was bearing his laughter under the table. A low voice came, and attracted everyone's attention to this side.

”Aron, if you want a woman to discipline you, ask your aunt to recommend some girls for you. She has lots of resources that can surprise you.” Richie wiped his mouth, raised his voice.

In the light of the curious eyes of the rest, the man in casual clothes said with a bitter smile, ”I really want to find someone.”

The young man's face darkened. Revenge was a dish best served cold.

The old man in the seat of honor rested his eyes on Richie. He had known from the very beginning that the child and the girl of the Li Clan wouldn't live a peaceful life.

It could not be her who would become the Ye Clan's hostess later.

The Ye's house was bustling with noise and excitement. Meanwhile, on the other side, Consuela was having a severe morning sickness. She had gotten out of bed for the third time.

She looked up at herself in the mirror. She saw her face pale and gaunt. She forced a smile, but it looked worse than crying.

A faint stink filled the bathroom and was unable to be swept away. She leaned on the washbasin with one hand and sighed.

”Baby, are you torturing your mother to death?” Looking at the empty belly, she smiled helplessly.

If she continued to be tormented by early pregnancy reaction, she might have entered the menopause in advance.
