Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 317 Dumber Than Wyatt

After pondering for a moment, Rayna asked Linda, “Mom, what do you think she’s trying to do? Is she trying to appeal to my emotions?”

Linda glanced at the talisman.

“I don’t think so. She came a few times to buy wine and is a nice person. Although she’s the sister-in-law of your dad’s new wife, she holds no grudges against you,” Linda replied, locking the door of the shop.

Rayna looked at Linda warily. “Mom, why are you on her side? Did she ask you to do something for her?”

“She didn’t.”

“She really didn’t talk to you about Elijah?”

“No.” Linda gave Rayna a sidelong glance. “Don’t think of her in such a bad light. After all, she’s—never mind. Let’s go groceries shopping.”

“What is it? Mom, what are you keeping from me?” Rayna asked curiously.

“She’s an elder.”

Rayna did not doubt Linda’s words. “I told you that you have a soft heart. Just ignore her when she comes in the future. After all, she’s Elijah’s family, so she’s definitely on his side.”

“All right,” Linda said, waving her hand. “Do you still want to eat at my place? Otherwise, you can go back.”

Rayna was speechless.

Is Mom finding me annoying now?

As she took the elevator down with Linda, she looked at the talisman in her hand. My attitude was great just now. I spoke to her politely and even called her Ma’am. But Mom said I disrespected my elders. When did I do that?

After returning home from groceries shopping, Linda had Rayna help organize the boxes of grapes so that she could make wine while she went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

“Mom, just make something simple!” Rayna yelled in the direction of the kitchen. As she had eaten nothing in the morning, she was starving now. She would eat anything Linda made.
