Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

The next afternoon, Elaine put up an end of business sign in the store early, and dragged Natasha, went to the mall

to buy a lot of things, but were not sure if Darnell's mother would like them.

Natasha looked at her worried look: "Why don't you just ask Darnell, his mother's preferences, he must know best."

Elaine said, "Actually, he rarely comes back to James' Mansion if he doesn't have something to do, and I heard my

dad say once that he doesn't seem to have a particularly good relationship with Auntie Christine, so I feel like it's a

waste of time to ask."

Natasha sighed: "Every family heir has a miserable life."

Elaine: "......"

She thought of what they said that day at the river, what revenge and other words.

As for Darnell's father, she really didn't have the man in her memory, so she never cared about that aspect either.

All she knows is that Auntie Christine is aloof and doesn't like to interact with people much, and she hardly ever sees

her anywhere else except at family gatherings.

This is probably related to the death of Darnell's father.

Natasha saw Elaine standing there not knowing what she was thinking, so she pulled her: "Well, don't think so much,

you and Darnell are married, and you are so pretty and cute, his mother will definitely like you."

"...... Are you serious."

"Of course, who in the world would not like us Elaine."

At that, Elaine smiled, just as her phone rang and it was Darnell coming to pick her up.

After telling him the address, Elaine did her shopping and headed outside the mall with Natasha.

Seeing the black Maybach driving towards them, Natasha waved to Elaine, "Go for it, I'm going to the lab to find

your cousin."

Elaine exhaled and nodded gently.

Sitting in the car, Darnell looked at the large bag she was carrying, "What's this?"

Elaine struggled to free her hand to pull the car door: "A gift for Auntie Christine, I didn't know what she liked, so I

bought a little bit of everything."

Darnell looked at her and smiled without saying anything.

On the way, Elaine was a little nervous, opening the car window to breathe in the fresh air.

I don't know how long it took, but the car finally pulled into James' Mansion.

This place, Elaine has been here many times since she was a child, but this time it was a completely different mood.

After driving some more distance, the car stopped in front of a house.

It's Christine's place to stay.

Elaine can't remember if she ever came here as a child.

Darnell got out, came around to her side, and lifted the contents of her arms in his hands, "Here we are."

Elaine took his hand and slowly stood on the floor, and tentatively spoke, "Auntie Christine, it shouldn't throw me

out, right? Although my father has also kicked you out, but my mental capacity should not be as good as yours ......"

Darnell laughed and clutched her soft fingers in his palm, "No."

Hearing him say that, Elaine wasn't any better, and she took a deep breath, "Let's go!"

Anyway, we are here, so we might as well make a move and be the first.

In the living room, Christine is sitting in a light-colored dress in the sofa, while the maid is preparing dinner behind

her.

Hearing footsteps, she slowly opened her eyes, but her face remained expressionless.

When she looked at her, Elaine felt slightly uncomfortable holding Darnell's hand, and tried to pull it out, but he held

it tightly.

Elaine spoke with some formality, "Auntie Christine."

Christine nodded slightly without much indication, only her eyes rested on the things Darnell was carrying in his

hands: "Didn't you already send a gift this afternoon, why did you bring so many again?"

Elaine froze slightly, in the afternoon?

Darnell placed the items on the coffee table in front of Christine with a natural look: "Elaine thought the ones sent

over this afternoon were too few and bought some more in case you didn't like them."

Christine looked to Elaine, who looked back and immediately nodded: "Auntie Christine, I don't know what you like,

take a look and tell me if you like it, I'll buy it for you later ......"

Christine withdrew her eyes: "No, I don't usually use these things."

Elaine's enthusiasm was like being splashed with cold water, a small "oh" under.

Darnell's thin lips pursed slightly and his eyes went to his mother.

Christine's tone eased up a few notches: "Sit down."

Elaine immediately sat down with both hands on her feet, looking incredibly well behaved.

Christine added: "I heard you opened a dessert store, later you come to see me, bring a copy of your dessert on

the line."

At that, Elaine's eyes lit up: "Yes, I was going to bring one today, but I was afraid you wouldn't like it ...... Next time

I'll bring it!"

Christine nodded, and for a moment, the living room was once again quiet.

Elaine knew that both mother and son were cold and reticent people, so she had little hope.

What's more, with the easing of the atmosphere just now, she is now not as nervous as she was initially.

Just as she was thinking of what topic she should find to break the awkward atmosphere, there were footsteps

behind her, and Elaine subconsciously looked back and immediately stood up, surprised, "Auntie Dolores!"

Dolores stood there and smiled, "Elaine, it's been a long time."

Elaine hadn't seen her for a long time indeed and happily ran over to her and hugged her: "Auntie Dolores, Elaine

missed you so much."

Dolores gently patted her back: "Two years gone, you've grown into a big girl."

Elaine slowly let go of her, spat out her tongue, and whispered, "I'm married."

Dolores sniffed, slightly surprised, and looked over at Darnell, who nodded slightly at her.

So that's it.

Christine got up and said, "I'm going to the kitchen to see if dinner is ready."

Elaine was just about to say she'd go help, too, when Dolores said, "You sit down, I'll just go."

When they entered the kitchen one after the other, Elaine sat next to Darnell and finally breathed a sigh of relief

and asked, "Did you ask Auntie Dolores to come over here?"

Darnell gave her a haircut, "No."

Elaine's eyes widened slightly, "That wouldn't be ......"

Auntie Christine?
