“I mean…my brother,” Kingsley said with a serious look.
Gianna frowned.
What did his insomnia have anything to do with his brother?
Kingsley’s smile seemed to become wider.
He put down the newspaper he had finished reading. His breakfast was finished too. He said, “Hurry up
and finish your meal, we’re heading back to the Walker’s house.”
Gianna was absorbed in the news and she did not respond.
Kingsley wrinkled his eyebrows.
He got up and glanced at her phone.
He saw a wedding photo between Caesar and Gianna torn apart by special effects from the screen.
The title of the news was : Caesar Kennedy left like a drowned mouse, the handsome beau becomes a
joke.
Kingsley snatched Gianna’s phone.
Gianna was slightly enraged. “Kingsley Walker.”
“Eat your food first, you could read it later.”
“…” Gianna wanted to curse someone.
“Eat, I’ll wait for you.” Kingsley returned to his seat and said with a serious look.
Gianna held back her anger.
She told herself not to argue with a man younger than her.
After all, he was too childish.
After finishing her breakfast, Gianna and Kingsley went to the Walker’s house together.
Since it was her first time meeting her in-laws, Gianna was more or less uneasy. Not to mention it was
just a sham marriage, therefore it was a little abnormal.
“My family is easy-going.” Kingsley seemed to notice her emotion and he consoled her.
Gianna turned and looked at him, “Really?”
“Yeah, except…” Kingsley paused.
“Who?”
“Someone,” Kingsley replied blandly.
“Who is it?”
“You’ll know once you get there,” Kingsley said absent-mindedly.
“Can’t you let me have some mental preparation beforehand?”
“There won’t be surprise then.”
“What kind of surprise is that, Kingsley Walker!” She was reluctant to get herself into a lot of troubles
the first day she went to his house.
“You’re clever, I’m sure you could tell on first sight.”
“…”
Damn.
She would really die of rage because of him one day.
The car soon arrived at the Walker’s villa.
The Walker family did deserve the reputation as the wealthiest family in Kouby City.
The villa which was situated halfway up a hill looked like a medieval manor. There were huge lawn and
majestic buildings and Gianna could not help but feel a bit shocked.
Both of them entered the main hall.
Everywhere inside the building was glorious and awe-inspiring.
They saw the Walker family sitting on the couch waiting for them from afar.
Gianna could not help but secretly take a deep breath.
She remembered when she married Caesar back then, they lived together with the Kennedy family.
Caesar took her to his parents the next morning to serve them teas. The episodes of his parents’
arrogant appearance and Bernice demeaning her on purpose were still fresh in her mind until now.
The reason Caesar gave her back then was since his parents were elders, they would certainly
assume airs or else they would be embarrassed in front of the young. He hoped she could understand
that. As for Bernice’s rude behavior, he only said blandly that she was still young and she did not mean
what she said. He asked her to tolerate her.
And she had really believed his lies.
She had always thought that the reason his parents acting proud was because they were elders, and
she had thought the reason Bernice did not respect her was because she was still young and ignorant.
Gianna suddenly let out a smile.
She felt indignant for her past self, and she advised herself not to abase herself again after being
reborn again.
Kingsley suddenly took her hand.
“Don’t make them think that we’re not close,” Kingsley said.
It should be, don’t make them know they were not close.
Gianna secretly grunted.
She followed Kingsley and stopped in front of the couch.
Cameron Walker and Caroline Derrick were now sitting in the middle of the couch. The ones sitting at
the left were the eldest son of the Walker family, Darren Walker, and his wife, Evelyn Atwood, while the
ones sitting at the right were the second son, Edward Walker, and a woman whom Gianna did not
recognize. She looked like Edward’s girlfriend. There was also a girl sitting at the furthest corner of the
couch. She was hugging a white cat doll. The cat was pretty and clean, just like the girl.
“Why, Gina, you’re so early. You must be tired yesterday, why didn’t you take a rest?” Caroline
immediately stood up and held her arm intimately.
Her kindness was genuine and was not pretended.
The feeling she gave her was completely different from the one Lindsay gave her back then.
Lindsay would act intimately with her in front of other people too, yet Gianna was greatly repelled by
her intimacy. Caroline did not give her that kind of feeling.
She smiled. “I’ve had a good sleep. Kingsley and I left early last night, therefore I’ve rested well, yet it
turned out that you’re the ones doing the tiresome job.”
“We’re all family, you don’t have to be that courteous.” Caroline was enthusiastic. “Come, come, have a
seat.”
“Mom, we have to let the new daughter-in-law serve the tea first, and you have to give the money gift,”
Evelyn reminded with a smile.
“Oh look at me, I’m befuddled due to all the excitements.” Caroline patted her forehead. She turned
and said to a servant, “Kelly, take the tea here for Kingsley and Gianna.”
“Yes, ma’am.” The servant stooped.
Two servants carried a tray with two teacups and walked to Gianna and Kingsley respectively.
Kingsley held Gianna’s hand and both of them knelt down, serving the tea to Kingsley’s parents.
After serving the teas, they received red packets from his parents according to Country B’s tradition.
Yet Osmond and Lindsay had played dumb back then. Not to mention red packets, they did not even
give any blessing!
