Chapter 302: Chapter 302 "Didn’t Raine call you in the morning?"
Tara turned to Tristan and said, "Third brother, look, your daughter is praising your intelligence."
A few people looked at Tristan.
Strangely, he just took a sip of wine, looking very calm, even with a hint of restrained gloom.
"Her mother is smart," he simply said.
His tone sounded like there was an unresolved knot in it.
Madam’s smile was faint, as if she didn’t want to continue the topic and said, "Let’s eat, the food is getting cold."
After a while, Tessa couldn’t hold back her anger and said coldly, "We are all family, and family should speak in unison. If a child is wrong, I think it’s up to the elders to point it out."
She stared at Chloe and said, "You’d better change your temper and never say that you would rather die than return to this ho. Saying such things is disrespectful to the elders and also shows that you are rude."
Chloe’s indifferent expression changed slightly as she asked softly, "What do you an by that?"
Tessa frowned, "You..."
"Aunt, please calm down, have so of this." Raine Nolan suddenly interrupted and served her so food.
She continued, "Aunt, since my sister has co back now, let’s not talk about those unhappy things, okay?"
Tessa knew that she had a straightforward temper, and a lot of tis, there were two sides of her arguing inside her head, one urging her not to care and to be straightforward, another one being more rational, asking her to restrain herself.
Often, the forr prevailed, and after releasing her anger, she occasionally felt a little regretful, thinking that being so direct was detrintal to her image.
At this point, Raine’s words allowed her to find a way out and gradually retract her anger.
She said, "Raine is thoughtful, Aunt, I’ll listen to you this ti."
Raine secretly heaved a sigh of relief, feeling frightened.
Chloe watched them with a faint gaze, one after the other, and roughly guessed what was going on.
She was not a person who liked to be taken advantage of, and even if she was occasionally willing to, it was for the sake of giving face to others.
But such situations were rare.
At this ti, she clearly didn’t want to, and there was no one here who could make her willingly suffer a loss.
She spoke up, breaking the brief silence of a few seconds, "Grandma, you don’t have to trouble yourself to pick
up in person next ti, just have Heng’er call ."
Grandma was taken aback, and her eyes imdiately filled with joy, "Ah, ah."
So many years had passed, and she finally heard the word "Grandma" again.
However, the next second, she was puzzled, "Didn’t Raine go to call you this morning?"
She had gone to the Fosters to find Chloe with Theodore after hearing from Rosalind Taylor that Chloe wasn’t coming.
Tristan, Tessa, and the others also wore the sa expression.
Tessa’s brow furrowed even more, "Was it my mother who picked you up just now?"
Chloe looked at Raine with a trace of surprise in her eyes and said, "She didn’t co to find
today, nor did she tell
about this matter."
Theodore suddenly exclaid, "So that’s it, no wonder my sister was so surprised to hear us calling her back for dinner. Turns out you didn’t even go to call my sister, and then you lied to us."
Raine let go of the spoon she was holding in her panic and shook her head instinctively, "No, I didn’t lie, I... I said... it’s all true."
Rosalind Taylor, who had also been kept in the dark until now, said, "Aunt, Second Aunt, don’t overthink it, Raine has always been well-behaved, how could she lie?"
Chloe’s eyes sharpened as she stared at them and said casually, "So you’re saying I’m the one lying?"
