Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom -
Chapter 842 Meeting the Reese family
The Reese family's residential area is quite nice. It had a beautiful environment. I checked, and it was not too far from Myra's place.
Upon replaceing the right place, I knocked on the door, and Annika was the one who opened it.
She seemed surprised to see me and took a moment before asking, "Why are you here?"
I quickly smiled and said, "I came to see you. I have something to discuss with your family, so I hope I'm not intruding."
Annika quickly stepped aside, gesturing for me to enter. She extended her hand and said, "Please come in. May I ask for your name?"
I politely replied, "You can call me Chloe."
Carol and I entered the house, and in the living room, I saw an elderly man. Judging by his appearance, he was undoubtedly Annika's father, Donovan Reese. Although he had the same eyes as Annika, his eyebrows were thick, giving him a dignified look.
Seeing guests at home, the old man quickly stood up, seemingly ready to give up his seat.
I said, "Hello, sir. You don't have to leave. I came with something that might trouble your family."
I spoke very politely and tried to smile warmly.
The old man's eyes gleamed, giving me a quick glance, and he gave up the main seat on the sofa. "Then please have a seat."
Carol casually placed the gifts on the coffee table, and then we took our seats.
Annika swiftly brought us some fruit and placed it on the table.
Then, a bit nervously, she looked at me and asked, "Um, Ms. Chloe. Why did you come today?"
"Well, I did come with something to discuss. It's related to the Reese family. Is your mother not here?" I asked because I thought it would be best to have all the Reese family members present for this conversation.
Georgina Reese would surely be fond of the Charlie, especially as her grandson from another generation. If the Reese family had any objections, the old lady could possibly help convince them. Annika seemed perplexed, and she looked at me anxiously, asking, "Did Arton... cause trouble again?"
Her face turned a bit pale. Donovan also became alert immediately, his expression more serious as he scrutinized me.
His attitude had changed. "Who are you two looking for? Do you know Arton?"
With her question, I understood the situation; he was suspicious of my intentions.
He thought I was a woman associated with their son, and therefore, not a good person.
Annika quickly held her father's
hand, and said, "Ms. Chloe, are you here to replace my brother? But he's not at home To be precise, he doesn't come here often. If you have any business, you can replace him. My parents are getting old and
manage his affairs.n't
outside?"
talk
It was clear that Annika was a sensible person. She was afraid her brother had caused trouble again and even more afraid of her father getting angry.
"Just talk here!" Donovan scolded loudly, startling me. "I'm curious to know why you're looking for him."
It seemed the old man had a bad temper. No wonder they had a son like Arton.
I quickly smiled and said, "Mr. Donovan, please calm down. This matter is indeed related to your son but it's not necessarily a bad thing."
I tried to calm their emotions, not letting them get too nervous.
Carol's face was gloomy, and I kept eyeing her, afraid she might say something.
"I came here quite abruptly today, but... this might be good for you." I emphasized again that it was a 'good thing.'
Upon hearing this, Donovan seemed to relax a little.
But he still looked at me
incredulously and said, "Just tell us already What exactly is the matter? Don't beat around the bush. Hmph... anything related to him is never good!"
This statement from Donovan was indeed accurate. However, from his words, it seemed he was frustrated with his son but also wished that his son could be more accomplished. en.swhovels.net
I composed myself and glanced at Annika. "Alright, then I'll tell you."
