Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 264



The guests trickled out after Old Mr. Xander’s birthday banquet ended. Before Alan left the Xander residence, he walked up to
Annalise and said to her with a polite smile, “Congratulations on finding your family “Thank you!” Annalise nodded slightly.
“Here.” Alan smiled and handed a paper star to Annalise. There was something written on the star. Julian’s expression darkened.
“You must open it and read it!” Alan said with a gentle smile. Then, he nodded at julian and left.
Alan had texted Annalise on Whatsapp before, but she did not reply. Alan did not know if it was because Annalise had not seen
his message or if it was because she did not want to interact with men. Annalise looked at the star she was holding in her palm.
Julian reached out and took the star. he folds paper stars. What a sissy.” Annalise felt that Julian was adorable every time she
saw him behaving jealously.
Her lips curled into a smile, and her eyes. curved into crescents “How is that sissy? This star is beautiful. It would look even
prettier if it were folded with luminous paper.” Julian frowned. “You like stars?” “Yes,” Annalise replied. Julian handed the star to
Annalise. “Open it.” He wanted to open it and see what Alan had written in it. But this was disrespectful to Annalise. Though
Julian was jealous, he could not be unreasonable.
Annalise was an independent person. If he loved her, he should respect everything about her. Including who she made friends
with, and that naturally included her male friends. If there was no love and admiration hidden in Alan’s eyes every time he looked
at Annalise, he would make a pretty good friend. Julian’s face. She took the star from him and opened it.
There was a line of words written on it: Nancy’s a bad egg. Watch out for her. “What does it say?” Julián asked. Annalise handed
the note to Julian. Julian’s expression instantly softened. So that was what Alan had written. Julian thought that Alan had written
something like “You’re beautiful”. Julian said, “It doesn’t matter. We just have to distance ourselves from those with bad
characters.” “Indeed,” Annalise replied.
Annalise had not interacted much with Nancy before, so she could not tell what Nancy was like as a person. Now that someone
had given her a warning, she just had to be more careful of Nancy. It was getting late at night, but the lights were still on in the
Xander residence. The servants were very busy. Lee Xander’s home had already been packed up more than two weeks ago, but
he got the bedding was pink as well. Lee-took Annalise and Julian to see the room. Annalise felt a little resigned when she saw
the pink-colored room.
She was already twenty years old. Lee said, “Back then, your mother said that if she gave birth to a daughter, she would treat
her daughter like a princess and give her daughter a pink-colored wonderland.” Lee did not know why his heart ached when he
said this. The way his heart spasmed was beyond his control. It felt as if that had all happened yesterday, but things were
different now.

That had happened in autumn 23 years ago. Heather was very thin, she was only 90 pounds. She was pregnant and she
caressed her belly with a smile. She said wistfully, “If it is a boy, then we will decorate his room like the ocean. If it is a girl, then
we must treat her like a little princess. We will decorate her room like a pink-colored wonderland.” Lee could not think about it.
The more he thought about it, the more painful his heart
Annalise felt very upset when she heard that. She did not remember much about her mother because her mother had passed
away when she was three years old. However, all the events and details related to her mother reminded her that her mother
loved Annalise as if her life depended on it. That kind of love touched Annalise and made her heart ache. “I love this room.” I
love my mother’s love, and I love my mother.
“Don’t go back tonight. Stay here. Come and stay over when you have time in the future,” Lee said. “Okay,” Annalise replied. No
matter whether she really was Lee’s daughter or not, she could feel that Lee truly treated her as if she were his daughter. Old Mr.
Xander also treated her as if she were his granddaughter. She would acknowledge the Xander family as her family as well.
“Take a look around and see if there’s anything missing. If there’s anything missing, tell the helper. Or you can tell me too,” Lee
Lee “Dad”, she could not help but feel a little excited. This word was complicated and felt heavy to her. “Silly, there’s no need to
stand on ceremony with Daddy.” Lee looked at Annalise dotingly. Lee thought to himself, “Heather, if only Annalise was our
daughter! Í am sorry!
I had made you lose hope. That was why you left. Even if you leave, I want you to live well! Were you too tired? Was that why
you left this word? I’m tired too. But Thave things to do. Our son has not yet been found. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of your
daughter. I’ll treat her as my own.” Julian led Annalise into the room. He wanted her to rest for a while.
A servant came over and said to them, “Sir, asked me to come and get you all for dinner.” “Okay,” Lee replied. Then, he smiled
and said to Annalise, “Anna, let’s go over for dinner and meet the family officially.” Everyone had already eaten at Old Mr.
Xander’s birthday banquet earlier today. It was only eight o’clock in the evening, so they weren’t hungry. The dinner was just so
that the family could meet each other officially.
The three of them walked from Lee’s place to the main house. The Xander Residence was very large. It was complete with a
vintage garden. There was a pavilion, an artificial lake, willow trees, stene paths, and a purple bamboo forest... One could read
in it in the afternoon, and it was beautiful at night when the lights were switched on.
They took about five to six minutes to get to the main house. It did not feel far at all. In fact, it felt as if they had only walked for a
minute or two. The scenery was simply too beautiful. They arrived at the main house. The servants busied themselves bringing

out the dishes from the kitchen. There were already more than 40 dishes on the huge round table. When they saw Annalise
coming over, they greeted her warmly, “Annalise is here. Quick, sit!”
Lee introduced them to Annalise one by one. Won’t introduce Grandpa. You’ve already mét him during the day. This is your
uncle, that’s your aunt. That’s your eldest cousin and your second cousin.” Annalise Barton couldn’t remember all the people
because there were too many of them. There were more than 20 of them. Lee knew what Annalise was thinking. He smiled and
whispered to Annalise, “Sorry, you don’t have to remember them. I’ll give you photos of them to look at tomorrow.” “Thank you!”
“Silly child. Come, sit, sit down and eat. Eat whatever you like. Don’t stand on ceremony.” Lee said. Samuel also said heartily,
“Annalise, come, eat.” After everyone was done eating, Samuel today is a day of reunion. Let’s have a drink together and
welcome Annalise home!” Lee had not found his missing son, but it was fortunate that he had found a daughter. At least he had
the motivation to continue living.
