132. Are You Going to Get Married Again
Jessie had an illusion that when she looked at herself just now, she felt like she was looking at a foreign invader.
It was only when she saw the car keys in the back and shouted, “What?!” Yosie ran in.
Jessie understood.
This overbearing Old Madam was the mother of Alex’s deceased wife, Gina Horfoud.
When Fia saw the person who came, a trace of fear appeared on her small face. She hid in Jessie’s
arms.
“Come here, come to grandma!” When Refina Dolly heard the child’s voice, her eyes eased up a little and she reached out to hug Fia.
Fia, however, pulled back towards Jessie’s shoulder and felt that she was very afraid.
Refina slightly frowned. She did not feel embarrassed and instead naturally withdrew her hand. for more visit :- www.noveljar.com She was like she was not rejected by the child just now. She once again looked at Jessie, “You are my granddaughter’s nanny?”
Jessie put down the child and smiled at her, “Hello, I am not the child’s nanny.”
She did not say the rest of the words.
She just happened to see Alex walk out from the Bentley at the door. She quickly turned to look at him for help.
Alex gave her a comforting look. He greeted Refina neither quickly nor slowly, “Mother-in-law is here? In the middle of autumn, I originally wanted to send the child to N City to accompany you guys for the holidays. I had something to do and was delayed, so I had to trouble Mother-in-law to specially make this trip.”
Jessie heard that he was calling Mother-in-law and not ‘mother’ and was somewhat surprised in her heart. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Refina and Yosie were already used to it. Alex had always called ‘Gina’ that ever since they got married.
In the beginning, Refina was quite annoyed and wanted him to change his way of addressing. Alex said, “Both sides are mothers, so he can’t be differentiated.” Hence, he did not change the way he addressed her.
Alex had a cold personality and was indifferent to the world. He did not change the way he addressed her.
Her daughter must marry him. She had her child when she was studying abroad. Refina always felt that he did not care about her daughter. Fortunately, his family background was prominent and his ability was outstanding. His appearance was even better, so Refina and her husband agreed to this marriage.
Refina pulled the corner of her mouth. “You have a lot of things to do. I think the child will not be able to see me. I can only come to see the child.”
Alex smiled apologetically. He did not have any intention of apologizing. He looked at Jessie and the child, “Fia, call her grandmother.”
Fia looked like she was afraid of strangers. She nudged Jessie in her arms again but Fia did not call her.
Jessie turned her head and her lips met the little girl’s tender face and softly said, “Fia, you call her grandmother.”
The two children were brought into this world by Gina using her life as a substitute. The children should be able to call them grandfather and grandmother.
Only then did Fia weakly say two words, “Grandma.”
Refina looked at the child like this and was very angry.
She was complaining about the Laurent family in her heart. If it was not for them scolding the Horfoud family, why would the children see her every time and the children were really afraid of her?
She didn’t know that no matter how young the child was, their ability to distinguish between family and things was very strong.
Every time they went to the Horfoud family, Refina would either order them or scold them. for more visit :- www.noveljar.com Yosie’s elder brother, Jordan liked to tease them. He called them little bastards every day and Refina didn’t teach Jordan a lesson.
Once, Jordan asked Felix to play online games with him, and Felix won. He felt that he was furious that he lost to a child. He made his dog chase after Felix, and that dog even tore Felix’s clothes.
Refina did not scold him when she saw it. Fia told her that Jordan bullied her brother, Refina did not listen to her at all, but she heard Jordan say that Felix was too naughty. That was why she used the way a dog chased Felix to teach Felix.
There were too many similar things, and every time the two siblings saw Refina and Jordan, they would avoid them.
Refina was angry but she was still smiling. She forcefully reached out and carried Fia over.
Fia was very unhappy.
Because Alex was there, Fia did not struggle free from her.
“Why are you so skinny? The last time I went to N City during the summer vacation, Fia was still chubby and cute. What is she wearing?” Refina looked at Fia and said. “Alex, I know you are busy. What’s more important than taking care of your child? Don’t give them maids who can’t take care of their children. If you want to find them, you should find some knowledgeable tutors. Look at how this child has been turned into by her!”
These words were clearly referring to Jessie.
Refina still made up her mind to think that she was the child’s tutor or nanny or servant.
Jessie was a little embarrassed.
Fia said crisply, “Grandma, I don’t have any bad maids at home. This is my mommy. When dad is busy, it is always Mommy who takes care of us.”
The awkward atmosphere became even worse.
Alex handed the car keys to Jessie and said, “Ask Driver Bart to take you to the hospital. I will find you later.”
Fia immediately struggled out of Refina’s arms and shouted crisply, “I want to go for an injection. Mommy, quickly take me there!”
“Go to the hospital for an injection? What happened to Fia?” Refina asked anxiously..
Alex said, “The vaccine.”
Jessie was speechless.
However, when she saw the little fellow reject Refina so much, she thought of Refina’s stern face and her scolding just now. She roughly guessed that this grandmother usually did not care much about the children.
With this thought, she took the car keys that Alex passed to her. She picked Fia up and politely nodded to Refina. She went out and handed it to Driver Bart. She carried Fia into the backseat of the car and left.
When Refina saw the sudden appearance of a young woman in Mountain and River Residence, she was very shocked. for more visit :- www.noveljar.com This woman was actually very close to Fia. They were like mother and daughter to each other, making her feel even more uncomfortable.
When she saw Fia talking to her and she was still held in her arms, she became even angrier.
Fia was a child that her daughter used her life to bring into this world. How could she let another unrelated woman kiss Fia?
Seeing this scene, she felt very angry.
That was why she had deliberately mentioned such belittling words by the nanny and maids
many times.
Fia’s silent acknowledgment of mommy, and Alex made her even angrier to the extreme.
The smile on her face became cold. “I shouldn’t have come this time. The Mother-in-law that you mentioned has already changed. I still don’t know this news.”
Alex did not respond to her words, but he did not refute her. He instructed Housekeeper, “Go and prepare breakfast for Mother in Law.”
Refina still wanted to vent her anger but Yosie pulled her sleeve.
She knew Alex’s temperament. If he was not willing to listen, Your words are useless. He doesn’t care about other people’s anger at all.
She wouldn’t get any benefits even if she was angry. She held back her anger and didn’t get angry.
At the kitchen.
There was an exquisite breakfast set up at the dining table.
Baked bread, fruit sandwich, fried into a loving egg, and a few almonds were soaked in hot milk.
Yosie helped Refina in. Housekeeper smiled and said, “You are welcome. This is specially prepared by our chef for you.”
Refina looked at the dishes on the table and could not help but be in a trance.
Gina was the daughter that Refina and Zefanya only had when they were very old. The situation was very similar to the Laurent family. When they were young, the two families joked about the same thing and said that they were a match made in heaven.
Refina didn’t expect that Alex of Laurent family would forget the teasing words, but her daughter would remember it in her heart.
Gina wanted to go to places where Alex was around since she was sensible. She followed behind him and happily called out to him.
Alex had always loved to cause trouble. Gina had followed behind him and helped him take his place. She was very happy.
Refina scolded him repeatedly and almost hit him. It was useless.
When Alex left the country, Gina had also followed him. She had also applied for the same finance and management specialization in the same school as him.
Gina originally loved fashion design. When she just became an adult, she made her clothing design room. for more visit :- www.noveljar.com Refina received a lot of praise for the clothes she designed.
Her family all thought that she would develop in this direction, so when she mentioned that she wanted to study finance and management in America, almost everyone in the family unanimously opposed it.
Gina still went. Refina heard from a friend who went with her daughter that over there, whatever Alex liked to eat, Gina would learn to do. Over time, she learned almost all of Alex’s favorite foods.
The two of them came back to get married because of pregnancy and Refina was worried. She stayed in Mountain and River Residence for a few days and Gina made breakfast for Alex every morning. The style was similar to the table in front of her.
But Alex was busy and had not eaten two meals in over ten days.
“During the time of your wedding, Gina also made these in the morning. She added almonds to your milk. Although the taste was a little bitter, it was better than coffee. She likes to make them like this. Do you remember?”
Refina’s eyes were slightly red. The way she looked at Alex opposite her also softened a little.” Maybe it’s because I’m old. Recently, I have been thinking about some things in the past.”
Alex looked at the almond milk in front of him and did not drink it.
There was a classmate gathering overseas. Gina was not in good spirits that day and did not want to drink. She asked him to help her get a drink. He casually took the list and asked her what she wanted to drink. She said that he liked everything he ordered.
Alex glanced at the list and casually ordered a cup of almond milk.
If Refina did not mention it, he would have already forgotten about this matter.
Seeing his calm expression, Refina also put away her emotions and asked casually, “I just heard Fia call that woman’s mother. Are you preparing to get married again?”
Actually, after Gina passed away, Refina thought that Alex would get married again.
This was also reasonable.
Even if he did not want to marry another woman, the two elders of Laurent family would not agree. Alex had lost his wife at such a young age. They would not have the heart to let Alex take care of the two children alone.
Refina had also heard that Old Madam of Laurent family had thought of many ways to let her son get married again.
