My Dreamy Old Husband

In any case, it was obvious that Joel did not come from an ordinary background. However, Christine vaguely understood why Maddie concealed it from her family after experiencing everything over the last two days. If our family back home learned about this… the consequences would be disastrous…

Soon, Maddie came back downstairs after changing her clothes. She was prepared to explain everything to Christine. Unexpectedly, Christine covered her ears and shook her head while saying, “I don’t want to know! I don’t want to know! I don’t know anything! I’ve never met Joel before! Don’t tell me anything!”

Maddie replied, “O-Okay…” It’s better if she doesn’t know anything.

Therefore, Maddie never brought the topic up again. Similarly, Christine refused to ask about it. She tried her best not to say anything, vowing in her heart that she would never reveal anything. Our relatives back home are already bad enough right now!

For a long time after that incident, the relatives back home continued to discuss how the Bishop siblings could win over the ‘Linus siblings’. Once the Bishop siblings obtained their household registry in Bayside City, they planned to bring all their relatives over to Bayside City. And that wasn’t all; they were determined to sink their claws into the ‘Linus siblings’. They claimed that if the Bishop siblings failed to woo them, they would send another two over to court the ‘Linus siblings’. If they knew that Joel’s family was so prestigious, they would certainly try to reach for the skies!

Soon, dinner was served. It was quite late, so everybody ate it as supper instead. It was the first time Joel invited Stanley over for dinner, so Stanley was elated to be there. While eating, he said, “Don’t be such a stranger, Aunt Maddie. Your sister is my sister. In the future, Christine and I will be a family. Just tell me if you need anything!”

Christine still felt as if she was dreaming. It felt like she was walking on clouds—it didn’t feel real. Not knowing what to say, she lowered her head and ate quietly. Then, Maddie replied, “I’ll definitely let you know if anything comes up in the future!”

Joel said nothing as he observed Christine secretly. After all, Stanley was still his nephew. Stanley had left the army, and his marriage no longer needed to be reviewed by the government. Even so, as his uncle, Joel felt the need to perform preliminary background checks on Stanley’s potential partners.

When news of Christine coming to the military compound to ‘visit the parents’ went around, the Fletcher Family became very excited. As a result, many people soon came to crowd around for a glimpse of the future ‘Stan’s wife’.

It was quite late by the time they finished dinner. Stanley went home while picking his teeth. It wasn’t easy for him to come back for a visit, and he did not imagine he would be invited to Joel’s house for dinner. That was enough for him to brag about within the Fletcher Family for quite some time. After all, not everybody got a chance to eat at Joel’s house.

Besides, one needs to make an appointment in advance just to meet the company’s major clients. Do you really think Maddie can ask them out just because she wanted to?
