Chapter 24 Chris’ Feelings For You
During the evening in the Solace residence, Winnie played in the yard with her grandson, Alex.
‘Mrs. Solace, Ms. Johnson is here.” A maid came over and informed.
Hearing this, Winnie turned her head and saw Annabelle, in a green satin dress, jogging over while smiling. “Aunt Winnie, I miss
you so much!” Annabelle stepped forward and hugged Winnie.
Winnie pretended to be angry and snorted. She patted Annabelle on the back. “You’re such a slick talker. If you really missed
me, why didn’t you come to see me? I even had to make a call to invite you over.” Annabelle let go of Winnie and sat down in the
chair next to her. “I’m busy recently.” Winnie said, “How can you get busy with your work? Isn’t your working time flexible?”
Annabelle poured herself a cup of coffee and said, “I have a part-time job recently.” Winnie asked, “Why do you still work part-
time? Do you not have enough money?”
Annabelle replied, “No. I’m doing a friend a favor. Something happened to her family, so she asked me to help her for a while.”
Winnie said, “I see. If you don’t have enough money, tell me. Don’t overwork yourself.”
Annabelle smiled playfully and said, “I know you care for me the most, Aunt Winnie.”
“Aunt Annabelle!” Alex rushed over in a flushed and sweaty state.
Annabelle caught him, who ran into her arms, and pretended to be angry. “Alex, you stained my dress. You have to buy me a
new one!”
“Haha...” Alex giggled and deliberately rubbed his sweat on Annabelle’s body.
Annabelle pinched his nose and said, “Our Alex is getting naughtier, just like your Uncle Chris!”
Winnie smiled, “That is so true. Alex is as mischievous as Chris was when he was a child. Luckily, there was Ken to keep him in
check.”
After chatting about Alex for a while, Winnie suddenly changed the topic and said, “Annabelle, you’re 26 this year, right?”

Annabelle poked Alex’s face and said casually, “Aunt Winnie, you can’t ask about a woman’s age casually. However, my birthday
is indeed soon. Are you going to prepare a birthday gift for me, Aunt Winnie?”
Winnie said, “How can I miss your gift?” She paused and took a sip of her coffee. Glancing at Annabelle, she continued, “You
and Chris are both 26 years old this year. You’re both getting old. Shouldn’t you consider settling down?”
Annabelle was silent for a while. Then, she curled her lips and said with a smile, “Aunt Winnie, how is 26 years old considered
old? I’m still a beautiful young girl now!”
Winnie said, “That’s not what I mean. You also know that my health has not been very good in the past two years. If you and
Chris don’t settle down, how can I be at ease?”
Annabelle smiled and did not answer.
Winnie observed her expression and continued, “All of us can see Chris’ feelings for you. I’m his mother, and I know that he is
uncommitted and had done a lot of bad things. However, his feelings for you are flawless. Annabelle, if you marry Chris, you’ll be
putting one of my worries to rest.”
Alex was delighted. “Aunt Annabelle, are you going to marry Uncle Chris?”
Winnie smiled at Alex and said, “Will Alex be happy if Aunt Annabelle marries Uncle Chris?”
Alex jumped up happily. “Of course, I’m happy! Then I can often see Aunt Annabelle.”
Winnie looked at Annabelle and the latter sported a faint smile on her face. Annabelle neither deflected nor agreed with Alex’s
words.
After a while, Annabelle said, “Aunt Winnie, I’ll think about it before answering you.”
