Chapter204
After she left, Evangeline finally let go of Emery.
Emery said unhappily, “Auntie, what’s going on? You won’t let
me talk to Krista at all.”
Evangeline said seriously, “Kid, let me tell you, next time you see
her, call her Auntie, don’t call her Krista again!”
Call her a little older and see if she still has the nerve to flirt with
Terrence.
Emery rolled his eyes and pouted, “She was so young.”
Randy wasn’t that harsh on Emery, instead he squatted down
and earnestly told him, “Your aunt is right, she is your
grandmother’s sister, your mom should call her auntie, you.
should call her great–aunt, if you call her sister, it’s messing up
the generations, people will laugh at you if they hear about it.”
Emery was young, but he could feel that, besides his dad, no one
in the family really liked Krista. Even though Krista was so nice,
he didn’t know what was going on.
But he knew, if he said Krista was good in front of them, they
would definitely not be happy.
Chapter204
To protect Krista, Emery didn’t say anything more, but agreed
to Randy.
In front of them in the future, he will just call her Aunt Krista,
but privately, he can still call her Krista.
Luckily, Terrence was fast, so the sacrifice was quickly bought
and delivered.
After the ancestor worship, they returned to the McConnell
family for lunch, and it was already one o’clock in the
afternoon.
Randy didn’t lose his temper in front of his ancestors, afraid of
offending the spirits of his forefathers. When he returned to the
McConnell’s manor, his face was long and drawn.
The issue was resolved later, but it’s quite taboo to do so. Randy
felt it was quite disrespectful to his ancestors.
He gave the McConnell family a good scolding from top to
bottom, and if he ever sees something like that again, he won’t
let them off the hook.
Therefore, everyone was a bit unhappy with Bethany.
If she had stayed at home honestly, this wouldn’t have
happened.
Chapter204
Randy was furious, but they didn’t dare to speak out.
Thanksgiving Day was supposed to be a good day, but the
McConnell family turned it into a dark and gloomy one, the
atmosphere was just off everywhere.
Terrence didn’t even feel like having lunch, Bethany wasn’t
home, so he just left Emery at the McConnell’s manor for the
time being.
He came out from the McConnell family, got into the car, and
called Bethany.
Bethany didn’t answer.
Terrence gripped his phone tightly, his knuckles turning
slightly white. After a moment, he put down the phone, started
the car, and headed back to Vespera Villa.
Took out the pearl necklace and brooch that Michael had
redeemed from the safe.
The pins sent by the counter were all put in the company safe
after he received them.
Those will never see the light of day again.
The necklace was his mother’s heirloom, and the brooch was
Chapter204
the one he thought suited her best, so he bought it specially for
her.
It’s time to return the item to its rightful owner.
Today, at first he was a little angry.
If Bethany was at home, those things wouldn’t have happened.
Think about it, for seven years, she was completely focused on
the McConnell family and never once thought about her
deceased relatives.
In the morning, when she got back to the McConnell’s manor,
they were still complaining that she didn’t attend the
Thanksgiving Day ancestor worship.
She wasn’t there, and not a single person prepared offerings.
And in these seven years, because her maternal family had no
relatives, he never accompanied her back.
