Chapter 190 Old Sweetheart Getting Married
The champagne-colored BMW cruised into the residential area where Anna lived.
Having prepared dinner in advance, Anna smiled upon seeing them return together. “I’m almost done. Just one more dish to go.”
Crystal handed her a box of peaches; it was Anna’s favorite.
As Anna took it, her gaze swept over Pete. What a tactful fellow.
Pete was on his best behavior around Anna. He greeted her sweetly and even volunteered to give her a hand in the kitchen. Obviously, Anna could not bear to let him do that, so she beamingly sent him to take
a shower.
Immediately, Pete picked up his suitcase and entered the room. He looked so well-practiced that Crystal couldn’t help but suspect that he might be one of Anna’s relatives.
Right when Anna finished cooking. Pete emerged, fresh from the shower.
Thanks to his long legs, he looked good in whatever he wore.
Enthusiastically, he helped Anna to her seat and served her food as if he was her own son.
While Crystal disliked certain parts of Pete, she had to admit that he knew how to please Anna. The latter looked like she was enjoying herself immensely, and seeing that cheered Crystal up.
The doorbell rang while they were eating.
“I’ll get it,” Pete volunteered automatically.
Gazing after his strapping figure, Anna whispered, “What a lovely young man. He’s enthusiastic and polite.”
Crystal smiled in return.
When Pete opened the door, he found a decent-looking middle-aged man accompanied by an elderly lady.
“May I help you?”
Joshua had come with his mother and wife. He was stunned upon being greeted by such a character at the door.
Am I at the wrong house? I don’t think so.
“Is Crystal home?” Joshua asked politely.
Crystal scowled in disgust at his voice. However, Anna squeezed her hand and advised. “He is a guest. Let’s not forget the manners your father has imparted to you.”
Crystal could only force a smile.
With that, Anna beckoned the Quinns indoors. Before she could greet them, Georgina Quinn, the old lady, looked as if she was about to cry. “What a shack my darling granddaughter is living in! What kind of a father are you, Joshua”
