Emery had been complaining about Hunter’s parents since they were newlyweds. She thought it would
get better after they had children, but the problem still remained. After giving it some thought, I comforted
her, “Fate has brought you together as a family. However, it is normal to have a gap between two
generations. It would be best to have more communication with them since they are your husband’s
parents. No one would love you two more than they do. Think about it, if your parents were still around,
would you find it hard to communicate with them?”
“Maybe,” Emery was still not very enthusiastic and replied listlessly. “My dad was very old when I was
born, and we barely enjoyed any quality time as a family when he passed on, so I can only imagine what
it would have been like. But it is clearly not working, hence my complaints to you now.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing her heartfelt words, I realized that she was quite right. Emery was about my age, and after her
father passed away, the only family she had was Zachary’s family. Even though they were supposed to
be like family to her, there was still a gap between them. This was why she did not understand what it
was like to have a good family time.
Everyone was different, and some things simply could not be forced. But there was nothing much I could
do except coax her. “Just vent and rant as much as you want if you are unhappy, as long as you don’t
say all these in front of Hunter’s parents.”
Emery’s voice suddenly hit a higher pitch. “I’m not dumb. I am hiding in my bedroom right now. Scarlett,
you have underestimated me. Even though I am not very happy with this family, the person I want is
Hunter. As long as we are fine, I will be able to keep it together. Do you understand?”
Before I could respond, she answered the question herself, “Whatever, you won’t understand since you
don’t have in-laws to deal with. Anyway, I should head to bed. Oh wait, what time are you going to the
hospital tomorrow morning?”
I guess she only wanted to go to the hospital with me to avoid staying at home. “Nine in the morning.”
“All right, I’ll be there too. Just wait for me at home.”
With that, she hung up.
I stared helplessly as my phone screen went blank. For generations, there had been constant issues
arising between in-laws. However, I was sure that Emery would be able to handle it well.
After all, what are these little family tiffs to a woman who’s successful in K City?
All these are just trivial matters, so I’m sure Emery won’t bear grudges.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThese thoughts put me at ease. After putting down my phone, I went to bed. The next day.
I was just making my way downstairs when Emery arrived. The moment Summer saw Emery, she ran up
to her and greeted, “Grandaunt!”
“Good girl, Summer. Did you miss me?” Emery enveloped her in her arms before complaining, “Hang on,
we are about the same age, but why am I part of the older generation? Summer, you should just call me
Aunt Emery from now on. Calling me Grandaunt makes me sound older than I am!”
As a precocious child, Summer immediately understood Emery and greeted her in a sweet voice,
“Auntie…”
Instantly, this brought a smile to Emery’s face as she responded to Summer, “Oh, you are so smart,
Summer. Come! I’ll reward you with a lollipop!”
With that, she fished out a lollipop from her Hermes bag and stuffed it into Summer’s plump little hand.
