Chapter 245

Grace perked up her ears and said, “I can’t believe it. Chris is so fierce. Does that mean he’s just a docile little lamb in front of his wife?”

Laura coughed twice, suppressing her embarrassment, and nodded slightly, feeling somewhat ashamed. She found herself caught between amusement and concern over her husband’s contrasting behavior.

Grace chuckled at the thought. Oh my, she couldn’t even imagine how Laura disciplined her strict elder brother. It must be so entertaining! Her curiosity piqued as she eagerly asked, “Sister–in–law, do you have any good ideas? Tell me!”

Laura discreetly glanced at Eder, who was still socializing, and said, “Don’t say it was me who said this.” Grace nodded quickly, assuring her secrecy.

Leaning closer to Grace’s ear, Laura whispered her mischievous plan. “If he does something wrong in the future, you have to make him learn things like typing on a keyboard, washing clothes on a washboard, or peeling durians. Educating is important, you know? You have to do it like this… and

like that…”

Grace frowned as she listened, finding the proposed methods rather extreme. “Isn’t that a bit harsh? Just kneeling on the floor was painful enough for me, and I couldn’t even imagine dealing with a durian…

actions.

Seeing that she was taking it seriously, Laura couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty. In truth, she had discussed these words with Chris and deliberately said them for Grace to hear. In order to prevent Eder from bullying their pampered little sister in the future, the couple decided to make Grace learn to take the initiative!

Just as they finished their conversation, Eder in the crowd seemed to have sensed something. After standing and socializing for so long, Grace still had concerns about his injury. “Are you tired?”

“It’s alright,” Eder replied in a calm tone, trying to dismiss her worries.

Mr. Storm had recovered quickly with her careful care these past few days. Curiosity sparked within her as she asked, “How long does Grace plan to stay at the Smith family’s residence?
