184 Ch. 184 Harmonie’s Sudden Exclamation
In the dining hall of Heinest’s dwelling, isya chatted with Madeline while Leonard talked with Raymond. anwhile, Stanley, sitting next to his wife, just sipped delicious tea as if he didn’t care about his surroundings.
Richard chatted with Andrew because they had not seen each other for a long ti, and they had so much to talk about, as if they were soul mates who had been separated for a long ti.
On the other side, Anxia and Michele listened to Harmonie’s narrative about this house as if the girl had lived there for a long ti. Anxia couldn’t shake off what she saw a mont ago and investigated Harmonie’s expression closely. The girl stopped blushing and returned to her usual self, but every now and then, her eyes would glance over at Andrew Heinest.
Everyone, including Harmonie’s two older twins, did not suspect Harmonie’s glance because the girl stole glances cleverly. Moni didn’t do it very often, which was subtle. Harmonie could fool everyone in this room but not Anxia.
Now Anxia felt very sure that this sister-in-law had feelings for Andrew Heinest. Was it because of Harmonie’s feelings for Andrew that she often postponed her marriage to her fiancé?
Anxia had heard that every ti the fiancé discussed their wedding date, Moni always avoided it and discussed sothing else. Moni ultimately broke up with her fiancé a few months ago.
Anxia assud they broke up because the male side didn’t take Harmonie seriously, but it seems… the reason they broke up was quite the opposite?
Did Richard and Raymond know this? Is Stanley aware of his youngest daughter’s feelings for Andrew?
After exchanging pleasantries with Leonard and Andrew, Anxia understood why the three Calvin siblings respected and admired these two people so much. Leonard was friendly and easy to talk to, while at the sa ti, the man had undeniable authority and dominance to make his bad-tempered wife submit to him.
.....
Andrew Heinest had the sa character as his father, but his aura of authority was not too apparent, as if the man never wanted to intimidate his interlocutors.
Now Anxia understood why Harmonie would fall in love with this prince-like handso man. Not only was he good-looking and had a charming smile, but this man also seed to cherish Harmonie.
Knowing this little secret made Anxia excited yet sympathetic to her sister-in-law. Based on her perception, Andrew viewed Harmonie as no more than a brother to his sister―Harmonie would have a broken heart.
Putting aside, Anxia was curious since when did Harmonie fall in love with Andrew? If Harmonie had liked Andrew for a long ti, why did she want to date and get engaged to soone else for so many years?
“Harmonie, when are you getting married? You are twenty-seven now. Isn’t it about ti you settled down and had kids?” asked Madeline politely, but Anxia knew that the woman wanted to ensure Harmonie was not married before her daughter.
“Ah, that…” Harmonie also knew the ulterior motives of her uncle’s wife asking her about her marriage and didn’t want to tell the truth. But… “I’ve broken up with my fiancée, auntie. So maybe I won’t be getting married anyti soon.”
Andrew put down his teacup when he heard the girl’s answer. “You broke up with your fiancé? Why? Did he hurt you?” He reacted similarly to the twin brothers when they heard about the breaking up.
Why did everyone think my fiancé hurt ? Harmonie couldn’t help but wonder. “No. He was good to .”
“Then?” Andrew demanded impatiently, to the astonishnt of Anxia.
“Andrew, trust . We’ve been trying to get information out of her, and she’s keeping her mouth shut. We don’t even know why they broke up.” stated Richard, tapping his cousin on the shoulder.
“I like soone else.”
Spurt!! Raymond nearly spitted out his drink when he heard his sister’s sudden confession. All this ti, Harmonie kept her mouth shut about her reasons for breaking up with her fiancé, but now the girl admits she has feelings for another man?!
Raymond glanced at his older twin with a ‘You know this?’ look.
Richard shook his head in response to the silent question from his twin brother.
“Oh, you like soone else? Who is it?” as usual, won who love to see the destruction of girls beside themselves asked further.
“Maddie,” Leonard’s firm voice once again silenced Maddie, then turned to his sister, who seed to be in shock. Strangely enough, Stanley acted normal and still sipped his drink as if his tea was the best in the world.
Leonard clicked his tongue in annoyance, seeing how expressionless Stanley was. His sister’s husband loved to act indifferent when he already knew everything. “isya, do you know this?”
“I...” isya sighed sadly. “Moni dear, why you never told before? Since when did you have feelings for this person? Do your father and I know him?”
“Hmm. You know him very well.” Harmonie glanced briefly at Andrew, who was now frowning but then said nothing more.
“Who is he?”
Harmonie didn’t answer, while Michele and Anxia only sat quietly, watching the scene as if they were watching a new viral drama.
Luckily, Quinn had appeared with the maids to serve her dishes, and they were all able to relieve the awkwardness by enjoying the host’s banquet.
However ... As she expected, Anxia’s mood turned sour when she saw that beautiful fairy-like face. For a while, she had forgotten that Quinn was Andrew’s younger sister and was more interested in seeing the developnt of the romance between Harmonie and Andrew. But as soon as Anxia saw Quinn’s face, her interest in trying to help Harmonie hook up with Andrew vanished.
Even though Anxis cherished Harmonie like his own sister, she didn’t want Harmonie to beco Quinn’s sister-in-law. She couldn’t bare to see what kind of hardship Harmonie would have if she married the Heinest.
Ultimately, they all decided not to discuss Harmonie’s crush again or the cause of the breakdown in her relationship with her forr fiancé. Surprisingly... Andrew Heinest turned quiet after hearing that Harmonie and her fiancé had broken up. The man still behaved normally and responded to people who talked to him.
However, only Anxia’s eyes could see sothing wrong with Andrew Heinest’s so-called normal deanor.
