Want You in My Life

Chapter 157 A Family Feast (Part Two)

"Mrs. Celine, I'm not a member of the Lou family now. You have forced me to marry into the Mo family.

In the future, Hiram will take care of my meal. Moreover, I will be uneasy after spending your money.

"Said Alline with a faint smile, holding the teacup indifferently.

It was awkward in an instant. All the members of the Lou family looked bad, especially Nicole. She

glanced at Alline coldly and said, "Alline, don't go too far! "

"Shut up! "Celine shouted at her. Nicole was dumbfounded. Her mother had always been nice to her

and pitied her at home. Her mother had never said anything harsh to her. But today, her mother

scolded her for the sake of Alline. She was furious!

She blinked her eyes and said unwillingly, "Mom, how can you scold me for this woman? "

"Shut up, Nicole! Do you hear me? "Celine was really angry. Nicole had to consider the occasion when

she got angry. Didn't she know about the situation? Both Andrew and Hiram were sitting here.

Reluctantly, Nicole shut her mouth, glared at Alline and played with her phone with her head down.

With a gentle and approachable smile on her face, Celine eased and activated the room by a few

words. As for William, he was also good at mediation, and he understood the meaning of the meal. He

said to Hiram, who had been silent all the time, "Hiram, you've just come to the HC City. You may not

know the characteristics of it. What Mom ordered today are all Alline's favorite food. When you go back

to the HC City, since we are relatives by marriage, we can take care of each other, right? "

Then he pretended to look at Alline casually and indifferently for a moment. He looked carelessly, but

there was an unprecedented admiration in his eyes. He just got a good news from the Sexy Club not

long ago. He wanted to know what would happen if his sister knew this news.

Of course, what he was more looking forward to was the reaction of Hiram. He squinted his eyes,

which were a little cold. Unlike Alline's, his eyes were phoenix eyes, but they were slender. When he

smiled, he gave off a feminine feeling.

However, Hiram was chatting indifferently with William. Hiram's eyes were as gentle as before, but the

coldness in them had never disappeared.

When the dishes were about to be served, the door of the box was pushed away again. The person

who came in was tall and handsome, clean and beautiful, with the warm windbreaker, which melted the

coldness around him. But he paused when he saw Alline. He received a call from Nicole today, saying

that it was a family dinner. Why was Alline here? And Hiram?

When Nicole saw Colin, she stood up complacently, took off his coat and hung it up. Then she held his

hand and walked towards the table. Although Colin didn't refuse or agree, his body had a faint refusal.

Colin walked to the table and said lightly to Andrew, "Uncle Andrew, sorry I'm late. "

"It doesn't matter, Colin. Have a seat, please. "Andrew asked Colin to sit down. After Colin greeted

everyone, his eyes fell on Alline again. But Alline didn't raise her head. She lowered her head and said

something to Hiram with an intimate look.

Colin was arranged to sit next to Nicole. With a faint indifference in his eyes, he sat down obediently,

pursing his thin lips and listening to Nicole carelessly. It was not until then that Andrew introduced,

"Alline, this is your sister's fiancé, Colin. "Then he introduced Hiram to Colin.

There was no joy or anger on Hiram's face. He said lightly, "I have met Mr. Colin several times. "

"Yes, we have met before. "Colin replied, but his eyes swept across Alline's face. There was a hint of

amazement in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, and Alline seemed to look at him in surprise with a

bitter smile.

She didn't expect that Colin would really decide to be with Nicole. Wasn't he extremely annoyed with

her before? Why did he suddenly change his mind? Alline couldn't figure it out. In the past, she had

known a little about Colin. He was very stubborn and wouldn't overturn any decision he made. He

hated her from the bottom of his heart. But why was he willing to be with her now? Was he forced? But

it didn't look like he was forced!

If Colin was forced to do so, he would treat her even worse and would not be kind to Nicole at all.

However, although Colin was still a little impatient today, he still followed her. Therefore, there was a

strange feeling in this matter. Perhaps it was because Nicole sensed the inquisitive eyes of Alline that

she raised the corners of her mouth to show her dissatisfaction.

Alline shook her head and took a sip of tea, pretending that nothing had happened.

Everyone was chatting casually. Everyone present was good at adjusting the atmosphere. In addition,

to make today's family dinner more lively, Celine had spared no effort to act, which was so fake that

Alline couldn't bear.

Fortunately, the dishes were served soon. It was true that the dishes were Alline's favorite. She didn't

expect that Celine was so thoughtful. But since half of the dishes were Alline's favorite, was Celine

fawning on her or acting? Alline squinted her eyes and took a look at Celine from the distance. But

anyway, people's taste always changed. As for whether Alline liked it or not, it was unknown. Alline

casually put down the teacup in her hand. Before she picked up her chopsticks, Celine had picked up a

piece of beef for her with a smile, but she did not appreciate it and refused. "Mrs. Celine, don't bother.

I'll take care of myself. "

Without getting annoyed, Celine continued to talk with a smile, "I haven't had dinner with you for a long

time. I can't help but do this. Have a taste of the spareribs in this restaurant. They are very delicious.

"Then she continued to pick up food for Alline. Although she was refused, she didn't show any

embarrassment on her face. Instead, she smiled calmly and didn't feel ashamed. After all, Alline was

still too young. Celine knew that now Andrew's heart was softened and he planned to accept Alline to

go back to the Lou family, but how could she do as he wished? She had been smiling with Alline tonight

and said something soft, but in return, she got Alline's cold and disgusting attitude, which only made

Andrew feel that Alline was just making trouble.

Therefore, his favorable impression of Alline would naturally be reduced, and at the same time, he

would sympathize with her more. After all, she was the person who had planned to let Andrew drive

Alline out of the Lou family. But after all Alline was his daughter. He was more or less concerned about

her though he did not show it on his face.

Andrew besides noticed the coldness on Alline's face and said, "Alline, your aunt is picking up food for

you. You should at least say thank you! "

"Thank you? "Alline's action of holding chopsticks paused for a moment, and a bright smile appeared in

her eyes. "Dad, do you think she deserves the name? Besides, I can do it on my own. Does she need

to pretend to be nice here? "

When Celine heard this, her face turned pale. Her eyes were wide open and she said nothing. A

strange look flashed through William's eyes, and the eyes of Colin, who was eating with his head down,

darkened. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.

As for Hiram, he smiled playfully and patted on Alline under the table, as if to say, "I'll take the

responsibility even if something happens." He had long disliked the attitude of the Lou family and had

been dissatisfied with them for a long time. But he couldn't vent his anger for her because of his

identity, but if she really wanted to vent it, he would never stop her.

Alline pinched his hands and looked at Celine with a cold smile, "So, Mrs. Celine, please don't do these

hypocritical things in front of me. I feel sick and impatient. Besides, how can you act so peacefully? At

that time, you took away my father and killed my mother regardless of your years of friendship with my

mother. You ruined my family. Do you really think that you treat me well from your heart now? Or do

you think everyone is blind? "

Her words were both sarcastic and hurtful, which made Celine embarrassed. All the actions that were

meant to please her were defined as deliberate flattery. However, Andrew's eyes narrowed

imperceptibly. "How did you talk to Aunt like this, Alline? " © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"That's right. Don't go too far! It's your honor that my mother is willing to treat you well. Do you need to

make fun of her like this? Or didn't your mother tell you that my mother and father were engaged first?

"As soon as Nicole saw her mother's tearful eyes, she immediately stood out to speak for her mother.

Even if Celine scolded her, it was for her good. She was angry for a moment, but it didn't mean that

Alline could curse her mother at will.

"Well..." Hearing that, Alline smiled coldly, and her beautiful eyes seemed to be filled with a faint sense

of killing. Her eyes passed by Nicole casually and she said word by word, "Miss Nicole, please don't

talk nonsense before you figure out the truth. Ask your good mother, what happened at that time. Is she

a mistress? Did she steal my mother's husband? Ask her carefully and see if I say anything wrong.

"
