He glanced at Mu Siyuan coldly.With just one glance, Mu Siyuan immediately felt a chill on her back.She pretended not to see it and directly picked up the chopsticks in front of her. Without picking up the dishes, she ate a mouthful of rice.Henry turned to look at Monique, worried that she would think too much.The woman took the food in her bowl as if she didn't care about it at all, as if she didn't hear what Mu Siyuan just said.However, her grip on the chopsticks was a little tight.The speed at which she ate was also a little fast.She still cared about that.Henry pursed her thin lips. Just as she was about to speak, Madam Dowager said, "Why is it impossible? It's Henry's daughter. She looks exactly the same as Henry's when she was a child."There was obvious displeasure in his tone.Seeing that her mother's expression was not good, Mu Siyuan quickly explained hypocritically, "I just said it casually. I have no other meaning. You know, Henry is famous for not getting
It was only then that her grandmother realized that Monique's expression was not quite good. Her young and immature face was a little pale. Then her grandmother was anxious. "What's wrong, Monique? Are you feeling unwell?"Monique felt suffocated. She knew that her grandmother had good intentions.However, her grandmother's words inadvertently pierced Monique's sore spot.She and Henry were completely different from what her grandmother had imagined.How could he marry her?When would her parents be free?She didn't know.They had abandoned her since she was a child. She didn't even know where they were, so how could she know when they were free?They wouldn't be free for the rest of their lives, would they?All of a sudden, the scar was removed. Monique shook her head with a ferocious look on her face. She still smiled and shook her head gently. Enduring the pain in her heart, she wanted to tell her grandmother that she had no parents."Could it be that there is something ha
But she didn't expect that her family background would be so miserable."It doesn't matter. Monique." Grandma held Monique's hand lovingly. "From now on, this is your home. You have grandma, aunt, Henry, and Little Nomi. Let it go."Although she suddenly mentioned her parents, there was a trace of heartache in her heart.But it couldn't really make her fall apart.She had endured it for so long. What else could she do without her parents now?She was not a three-year-old child. She was not holding a doll and crying for her parents.But after all, they were her parents. When she heard such words, she couldn't help but feel sorry for them.However, her grandmother's words made Monique's heart tremble and her eyes turn red. There was a layer of mist in her dark almond-shaped eyes. The warmth of her family could make her heart really soft. She really envied that Henry had such a good grandmother.Henry looked at the woman whose eyes were red and her heart was soft. She thought that
Little Nomi's concerned face, grandma's loving face, and Henry's caring face were all real.But she just cried not because of sadness.It was because she was moved.Monique smiled brightly at her grandmother. "Grandma, I was crying just now not because I was sad, but because I was moved. They have been away from me for so long, and I have no feelings for them anymore. It's just that you were so kind to me that I was too moved, so I couldn't help crying. What a shame! Ha-ha."Monique smiled and almost burst into tears.Monique smiled, and there were small dimples on her cheeks. She was as beautiful as a flower.Grandma patted Monique's hand gently and looked at her lovingly. "Silly child."How could she be nice to her? She didn't know that she had exposed her scar. She didn't even blame her at all but was moved.Such a sensible girl made Old Grandma's heart ache.There was already a hint of redness in her eyes. She looked at her grandson and said sternly, "Be nice to her. Look
"Oh, then what does your uncle's family do? Where is he from?" Mu Siyuan immediately asked.Upon hearing Monique's words, she could almost tell that Monique was living in an ordinary family.No, compared with them, they should be living in a poor family.And they were depending on somebody for a living.How could such a woman with no family background be worthy of Henry?Such a woman only tried to curry favor with Henry for money.Thinking of this, there was a hint of disdain in Mu Siyuan's eyes when she looked at Monique.Grandma's face darkened and she scolded, "Yuanyuan! Why are you talking so much today? Can't you stop? Why don't you take this delicious food?"Mu Siyuan didn't expect that her mother would scold her like this because of an outsider who hadn't been married him yet.Her face froze, and she curled her lips. "Mom, why are you different from other mothers? Other mothers ask a few more questions for their children, and then they know each other's background. You
"I'm sorry." Monique didn't expect that her grandmother and Henry's aunt would quarrel because of her own affairs, so she apologized in a hurry.Grandma said, "Silly child, this has nothing to do with you. Why are you apologizing?"Of course, Monique could tell that her grandmother had been protecting her and didn't want Mu Siyuan to ask about her previous questions.She was afraid of accidentally mentioning her sadness.Monique smiled sweetly and said, "Grandma, what Miss said is right. She should ask, and it's not a big problem. I can answer. Besides, I..."She almost blurted out that she had nothing to do with Henry, and he was just Little Nomi's father and she was Little Nomi's mother.Although Henry had been treating her much better recently.But it was very likely that it would be better for her for the sake of Little Nomi.Maybe it was because he knew that Little Nomi was his biological daughter and spoke ill of him in front of Little Nomi.However, she instinctively pa
"All right, Little Nomi will definitely make Grandma happy.""Little Nomi, stay here with grandma. Remember to be good," Monique said.Little Nomi rolled her big black and bright eyes and then nodded. "I will, Mommy.""Grandma, I'm leaving." Monique greeted Old Grandma and then let Henry pull her out of the room.The bright moon was in the sky. Monique followed Henry through the door and came to a long corridor.The two sides of the corridor were filled with gardens. There was a small mountain on one side, and there was a fountain on the mountain.As they walked along the corridor, there was always a fragrance wafting into their noses.Monique had just eaten too much at the dinner table, so it was a good time to come out and digest.Moreover, the scenery in the courtyard was pleasant, and the garden design of the old house was really good.There were white jade-like flowers, pink delicate flowers, and bright red flowers too.At first, Monique looked at the scenery and didn't
"If you like it, I can take a walk with you every day in the future." The low voice was like a string, magnetic and pleasant to listen to.Monique looked up and the girl-like shyness appeared on her pink and tender face, then her big black and bright eyes were like the purest and purest gem, she seemed to be in disbelief. "Ah?"Her eyelashes were thick and curled. Every time she blinked, it seemed that she could make people moved .The next second, the man suddenly knelt down on one knee, and his magnetic and lazy voice rang out. "Mo Mo, marry me!"As Henry spoke, he took out a ring folded with rattan as if he was using magic.However, this ring was folded in a very special way.They were surrounded by weeds, and there was a small red flower in the middle, which looked particularly beautiful.Monique seemed to have been struck by lightning. She froze there, and her mind was blank.She hadn't recovered from the first sentence Henry had said.He just told her to take a walk with
