“No, when Farren got married, you were there, weren’t you?”
Mars Xue smiled and introduced, “They got married three years ago, what kind of memory do you have?”
Mr. Xue’s brow furrowed slightly.
“Girl, come closer and I’ll take a look.”
Amelia Bright did not know what to do, but she did not want to disobey her elders, so she took two steps forward.
Mr. Xue’s hand was outstretched, and the people of The Xue Family immediately understood and handed Mr. Xue a pair of presbyopic glasses.
The old man stared carefully at Amelia Bright for a while, took off his glasses and shook his head, saying slowly.
“This is not the same girl that Farren married that year.”
The crowd looked at each other, but all with a kind smile, Mars Xue winked at Amelia Bright, there is let her do not bother with the old man in the meaning of.
After all, ninety years old, it is normal for people to be less clear-headed.
Amelia Bright’s heart thumped, and she looked at Mr. Xue’s eyes, wise and clear, not like confused, her expression slightly stiffened.
“Farren has not come to the family for years, it is understandable that his health is not good, since they have become a family, do not let the friendship between the two families fade, girl, you often come to the family in the future.”
Mr. Xue looked at Amelia Bright, and restrained his gaze, and said charitably, “Hai Feng and Farren are brothers, and they have a good relationship, so if you can come often for Farren, the young couple and I will be happy.”
Amelia Bright nodded obediently, “When Mr. Xue is free, I will definitely pay a visit.”
Mr. Xue nodded slightly.
“Go and bring the things.”
The middle-aged butler-like man at his side immediately went to get a small black box of rosewood and handed it to Amelia Bright under the old man’s gaze.
After Farren Austin nodded, Amelia Bright took it and opened the box in front of everyone.
Inside was a pair of jasper bracelets, and from her experience in learning jade appreciation in school, the jade was of excellent color and worth a lot of money.
“The ancients also said that jade nourishes the heart, I think it suits you very well girl,” the old man pointed slightly at the box.
“Farren’s wedding, did not have time to prepare a gift, this has long been prepared, has not had the opportunity to give you, today just brought, is to make up for the wedding congratulations three years ago, also hope you take good care of ChambersFarren.”
The words are very kind and amiable, as if it is like the elder of the family with the younger generation admonition.
“This is too expensive …,” Amelia Bright excused, “sir your words I remember, things or … ”
“Give it to you and you take it.”
Mr. Xue is very stubborn, said the words can not be doubted, Amelia Bright looked at Farren Austin, had to take it.
The pair of bracelets fell in the eyes of Stetson Madden, compared with her own embarrassing situation, and immediately very harsh, she secretly pinched her fingers, allowing the palm of the vague pain.
After the birthday celebration, everyone returned to the original table.
Mars Xue’s wife excused herself to go to the bathroom, and when Stetson Madden saw her, she immediately followed her.
Amelia Bright adjusted Farren Austin’s wheelchair and sat down at the side, whispering, “Why didn’t you just excuse yourself, the bracelet is quite expensive.”
Farren Austin looked at her sideways, calmly, “Give it to you, you keep it on the line.”
The implication is that you don’t want to get a good deal.
“The problem is, compared to the Huanghuali chessboard we brought, alas, I’m not saying it, the box Mr. Xue gave for the table is worth more than your chessboard.
“What did you say?”
“That you are cheap!” Amelia Bright repeated carelessly, staring unblinkingly at the rosewood box, feeling hotter and hotter.
Farren Austin frowned a little, inexplicably exasperated by the remark.
He has all his money with her, he did not prepare the birthday gift carelessly, he prepared but was criticized, this woman’s ability to stir up trouble is to see the wind grow?
In front of the mirror in the washroom, Mrs. Xue looked into the mirror to sort out her clothes, not noticing a figure walking behind her, and accidentally bumped into it when she turned around, but she reacted quickly to avoid it, but the person still stumbled and knocked against the sink.
“Yikes.”
“Sorry, is everything okay?” Mrs. Xue reached out to help, and when she saw the person, her eyes were full of apologies, “Mrs. Gellar.”
Stetson Madden looked down at the gown on his body, chagrined, and said
“I was careless, it’s okay, it’s just a wet gown.”
“I’m so sorry, is the dress wet? Let me see,” Mrs. Xue took a look, the hem of the dress rubbed the water stains on the sink, because of the material of the dress, dense a large gray traces, is very obvious.
“It’s okay I’ll just wipe it.”
“This is not okay,” Mrs. Xue decided, “so, if you do not mind, you come with me to the lounge, I have prepared a spare dress, you and I are about the same size, should be able to wear.”
“How can I resent it.”
The two of them left the restroom shoulder to shoulder, avoiding the ballroom and going directly to the women’s lounge that The Xue Family had prepared at the hotel, and on the way Mrs. Xue was still sorry for bumping into Stetson Madden.
“I heard you just had a baby not long ago, is it really okay to bump into you just now?”
“It’s fine, it’s not that weak, I followed Liam out after the baby was born, just now it’s my fault, I thought we were the only two women at the table, we haven’t had a chance to talk to you, just now I also wanted to talk to you, I didn’t pay attention in a hurry.”
“Not only the two of us, but also Mrs. Austin?” Mrs. Xue smiled gently, “You two should sit together, the Gellar family and the Austin family are quite good friends, you should know her very well.”
“She?” Stetson Madden showed an embarrassed look, “or do not mention it, according to reason I should call her a sister-in-law, but … forget it, do not mention it.”
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing. I see her people quite good to get along with ah.”
Stetson Madden looked embarrassed, and after half a day of hesitation.
“The Gellar family and the Austin family have always had a good relationship, since she was released from prison, met a few times at parties outside, probably because I was not right for her temper, speak directly, our two families on the relationship has become tense. ”
“What’s going on ah?”
“It’s not the Austin family sister marriage thing.”
“I’ve heard about it, said it was with the Mo Family?”
“It was, but who knew there would be a bite out of the blue,” Stetson Madden lowered his voice, “the young master of the Mo Family, and Amelia Bright involved.”
“That can’t be right, Mrs. Gellar, that’s not true.” Mrs. Xue is not a person who likes to fiddle with the truth, once she heard this, she immediately frowned and resisted a little.
“Amelia Bright was engaged to someone else long before she married into the Austin family, and she dumped her fiancé because she saw something in the Austin family. “
