A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Essie simply sat on the table, and with nothing else to do, so she stared at the two beautiful men sitting in front of her admiringly.

She had to admit that the two did not look like twins at all.

Zac had a strikingly handsome face, a combination of both his parent's essence and strengths. Besides that, he was born with an exceptional aura and an alluring charm. However, Walt's good-looking appearance seemed to only be inherited from the Rong family and did not seem to have any of Mary's genes.

There was a saying that a mother can have nine children and they would all turn out differently.

This saying sounded reasonable in this case.

While Essie was sitting blankly, lost in her thoughts, Mary and Valery walked in.

Walt was not surprised to find Valery there as he had already known that she moved in the mansion while he was still in the United States.

What he couldn't fathom was the fact that Essie seemed to tolerate her existence. Living with Valery must be such a daunting experience for her. He wondered quietly if it was because she loved Zac so much she would sacrifice such a thing.

When Albert and the other finally arrived, they started to eat.

When they started eating, Walt picked up a pigeon and placed it on Mary's plate. Zac followed by picking a pigeon for Essie, however, this bothered her so she picked up a pigeon and placed it on Albert's plate.

She then said, "Since Essie has been familiar with the family affairs at home, why don't we ask her to take charge of this Mid-Autumn Festival dinner? It would certainly be an opportunity for her to improve herself." Mary knew that if she didn't do well, she would end up offending the other relatives and elders. It would mean the end of her
