SWNOVELS Chapter 470
Chapter 470 Let Us Go Home
On the dining table the next morning, Reina did not see Jaylon.
She did not ask Anaya where he went. She picked up the spoon and silently drank the soup.
When she took a sip, her hand that was holding the spoon stopped in the air.
The soup was slightly salty, but it was not bad.
The nutritionist Jaylon hired was a professional who had worked for more than ten years. But if the soup was made by a nutritionist, it wouldn't be salty. It was such a stupid mistake. She looked at Anaya and wanted to ask if Jaylon made the soup, but she didn't ask.
It didn't matter. After all, she had eaten it.
Let it be.
After breakfast, Anaya helped Hearst adjust his bow tie and sent him out.
After sending Hearst out, Anaya was going to take Sammo out for a walk with Reina.
After Reina got pregnant, she always took a walk in the morning and went out with Anaya.
Anaya rarely went out after getting pregnant. Sammo hadn't gone out for a long time either. After going out of the gate, it ran wildly on the road and almost dragged Anaya away. It was inconvenient for Anaya to take a walk with Sammo because of her baby bump, so Reina took the leash and walked slowly on the sidewalk beside the lake.
After walking around the lake for half a round, Anaya was a little tired, so she asked Reina to sit down and take a rest.
There was a leash, so the dog couldn't run far away. It circled the two
people, and the leash almost tied them up.
Anaya was just about to grab the leash to let the dog stay down when she
saw Sammo bump into a tall and thin middle-aged man.
Sammo was dizzy. It shook its head and took a few steps back before finally sitting on the ground.
The man also staggered a few steps and barely managed to regain his balance.
Anaya saw it and was slightly shocked. Just as she was about to apologize, the middle-aged man raised his leg and kicked Sammo fiercely. He scolded, "You blind bastard. Didn't you see me?" Sammo barked in pain and was so scared that it hid behind Anaya. Then it barked a few times at the man.
Anaya frowned and looked at the middle-aged man, dissatisfied with his rude behavior toward Sammo.
But this matter was caused by Sammo. This man was angry, so Anaya had no right to blame him. She could only calm down and say, "Sorry, it didn't hit you on purpose."
The middle-aged man bent down and patted his pants. He was still complaining, "Do you know how to lead a dog? If this little bastard bites someone... Reina?"
The man fixed his eyes on Reina. His eyes were full of surprise. "I heard that your mother died not long ago. I thought no one would hold a funeral for
her. I didn't expect you to come back."
Anaya whispered in Reina's ear, "Do you know him?"
"He is my uncle, Edward Zeiss," Reina said after a few seconds.
Before Lacey's funeral, Reina called her grandmother. She wanted to hold a simple funeral for Lacey.
But her grandmother had blacklisted Lacey, so Lacey couldn't reach her at
all.
When Lacey went to the place where her grandmother lived before, she heard from the neighbors that her grandmother had moved away several months ago.
She thought that she would never meet her mother's family again in this life, but she did not expect to meet her uncle today.
Lacey hadn't been a good girl since she was a child because of Edward.
The children of the Zeiss family were a disappointment, but because
Edward was a boy, the elders doted on him more. They ended their relationship with Lacey and continued to keep Edward with a comfortable life, treating him as a treasure. Edward sized Reina up and finally fixed his eyes on her big belly. "Reina, are
you pregnant?"
Reina subconsciously raised her hand to cover her belly and bit her lower lip, not saying a word.
It was a little awkward in front of her family.
Edward stared at her for a while and suddenly laughed.
There was too much contempt and sarcasm in his laugh, which made her
feel uncomfortable.
"I remember that you are not married yet, right? You are pregnant before
getting married."
Reina clenched her fingers and felt embarrassed. She subconsciously
retorted, "No."
Edward didn't believe it and sneered. "You are lying. I have never heard of you getting married. Maybe you don't even know who the child's father is, right?
"Sure enough, you are like your mother. Shame on you. You must be fooling around with men all day!"
Reina's nails dug deep into her palms. She bit her lips and didn't speak.
Hearing him belittle Reina, Anaya got angry.
Before she could say anything, someone suddenly grabbed Edward's
shoulder from behind.
That man's hand seemed to be made of iron. Edward couldn't move at all.
That man clenched his hand hard as if he was going to break Edward's
shoulder.
Edward gasped in pain and almost cursed.
Without waiting for Edward to speak, the man coldly warned him from
behind, "Sir, when talking to my wife, please watch your tongue."
Without waiting for Edward to respond, the man passed by him and walked
in front of Reina.
Jaylon stood beside Reina. He was tall and had long legs. His eyes were indifferent. His eyes were dark and deep. There was a dangerous aura in his
eyes.
"Reina, who is this?"
"My uncle."
Jaylon's cold eyes were still fixed on Edward as if he was threatening
Edward.
He lowered his voice and asked Reina, "You still haven't told your uncle that
we are married, right?"
Reina did not reply to him, nor did she refute him. She sat there quietly.
Edward looked at the man in front of him, who was half a head taller than him. Edward suddenly felt he was even shorter.
It was not about the height. He felt that he was much humbler than Jaylon.
Edward asked suspiciously, "Are you married? Why didn't you tell me?"
Jaylon said calmly, "We didn't tell you about her mother's death. Why should we tell you about our marriage?"
Edward had long blacklisted Reina. He did not know if it was because Reina
really did not inform them or if she couldn't reach them. However, he
couldn't argue with it.
"Reina, let's go home." Jaylon reached his hand to Reina without looking at
Edward.
Reina recovered from the shock and didn't know if she should hold his
hand.
She raised her hand and quickly retracted it.
Jaylon's eyes flashed. He stretched out his arm and grabbed her wrist. His other hand held her shoulder. He pulled her into his arms. His voice was
hoarse and magnetic. "Let's go home."
Reina pursed her lower lip and nodded softly. Then she left with him.
Anaya stood up with the dog. Edward didn't dare to call Jaylon, so he planned to grab Anaya's arm and ask for an explanation.
Before Edward could touch Anaya, someone grabbed his shoulder, covered
his mouth, and dragged him into a grove on the side.
Reina heard the movement. She turned around, only to see the trees
shaking. Edward was gone.
She took the leash in Anaya's hand and led Sammo for her. She asked doubtfully, "Ana, did you see my uncle?"
