Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 1069

Fortunately, she didn't forget where she was. She sat up straight and hid all her emotions under her long eyelashes.

Master Hus took the box that Adam handed him and smiled from ear to ear. "It's very kind of you that you brought me the gift!"

"It's just a token of my goodwill," Adam said in a low voice.

"Then I'll take it and share their happiness!" Master opened the box and took out the candies. He handed his granddaughter a piece of wedding candies and said with a smile, "Thank you, Adam! You must be tired driving all the way here."

"It's okay." Lil Adam Yining said calmly.

They could also ask the chauffeur to bring the gift here, but Bellamy Chin thought it better to bring it by Adam in person. It was also an way of interaction between the two families.

Anthea was chewing the soft candy. The fragrance spread through her mouth and it tasted sweet.

Seeing that Adam was picking up the car keys, she couldn't help but spoke first. She looked at her watch and said, "Grandpa, it's getting late. I have to go back to school!" "Alright." Master Hus smiled and nodded. After looking at his granddaughter, he looked at his son-in-law and suddenly said, "Adam, I have something to tell you. Come with me to the study!"

Adam nodded and said, "Okay."

The study is on the second floor, opposite to the bedroom.

Adam followed Master Hsu into the room. The two of them sat down on the peach wood seats in front of the window.

Master Hsu said with a smile, "Adam, your mother-in-law wants to move Rory's tomb!"

Rory had died in aircrush, and her body was not found. They could only make a mound in the cemetery, as a symbol.

"The staff in the ceremony made a call the day before yesterday, saying that they'd accidentally cut off a corner of the tomb when cleaning it. Your Mother-in-Law has been talking about it for a long time. Women usually get more superstitious when they get older! She's found a fortune-teller. She's been working on it for a while, ending up with a conclusion that the present location isn't good and that she wants to relocate it to a cemetery in southeast, where has better luck! We respect your opinion and want to get your permission!"

Hearing that, Adam said in a low voice, "I have no objection."

"Well, that's good!" Master nodded with a smile, "I will give instruction later!"

Adam's eyebrows moved slightly and there was a flash of surprise in her eyes.

If it was just about moving his wife's tomb, there was no need to come to the study. He thought his father-in-law's intention was not limited to this.

As he had expected, Master Hsu spoke again after a few seconds of silence, as if he was chatting casually. "Adam, you should know that your mother-in-law is actually the second wife I married, right?" "Yes," Adam replied.

This wasn't some secret of a wealthy family. Everyone knew about it.

"My first wife and I only have one son, Hendrix, who has passed away more than ten years ago!" Master Hsu seemed a little melancholic to mention his late wife and son, "I arranged a marriage for Hendrix at that time. In fact, he already had a lover outside and had a wedding ceremony in the countryside!"

'I tore them apart and caused the tragedy in the end!'

"It was me who made Anthea lost her parents at her six and can't be admitted to the family. She might even be mistaken for an illegitimate daughter... I'm

very sorry forthem!"

Adam frowned slightly.

At that time, he should only be a teenager. He didn't expect that she could be so strong to become such a lively, smart and quick-witted girl.

Master Hsu suddenly called him," Adam."

When Adam looked up, he heard her father-in-law continued, "Anthea is still young and immature. So she often has immature thoughts. She would jump into something even she herself was not clear about!" "If, I mean if... her naive thoughts or immature actions offend you, I hope you could pass over her offences. If she has crossed the line, you could forgive her!" Master Hsu's expression was like he wanted to speak but stopped on second thought, and he was hinting at something.

Adam was in a daze.

Master Hsu sighed and said with a serious frown, "I've already lost Hendrix. I'm guilty for him. The only thing I can do is to take good care of Anthea for him.

I can't let the child go astray. Only in this way, Hendrix can be at ease in heaven! Adam, do you understand?"

Within a blink of an eye, Adam was stunned that there was no change on his face.

His eyes were deep, and no one could tell what he was thinking. After a while, he said slowly in a deep voice, "I understand."

After Master Hsu finished speaking, he nodded, feeling more relaxed.

"If there is nothing else, I beg I must leave." Adam got up and said.

"Okay!" Master Hsu said with a smile and said, "Drive carefully on the way and greet your father for me. I will visit him when I have time!"

Adam nodded. He turned around and walked out of the study without any expression.

A crescent moon hung in the night sky, and the courtyard was very quiet. A tall and strong figure walked out of the villa. When he got to the jeep, a beautiful figure suddenly spring out from the flowers nearby.

"Uncle Adam!"

Adam was stunned when he saw her. "Haven't you left yet?"

In the darkness of the night, her eyes were shining bright, brighter than the stars hanging above her head, reflecting into people's hearts.

He really wanted to light a cigarette.

"I'm waiting for you!" Anthea jumped up and down, and she was a little shy after saying so. She yawned deliberately and shouted, "Uncle Adam, what took you so long? I almost fell asleep!" Although she said that she wanted to go back to school, after they went upstairs to the study, she did not leave the villa at all. Instead, she sat on the flower bed, waiting for him.

Adam carried the car key in his hand and said, "Get in."

"Yes!" Anthea immediately got in the car with him obediently.

After Adam drove out of the yard, the Hsu's house behind gradually turned into a small black dot.

Adam sat straight on the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel with one hand and a cigarette that had just been lit with the other.

The smoke rose from his fingertips and formed a white line, expanding and dispersing.

His profile combined handsomeness with firmness. His dark eyes fixed at the road ahead. Without extra expression on his face, he seemed to be focused on driving. Anthea was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, peeping at him.

There were colorful neon lights passing by from time to time outside the car window. The narrow space inside the car was sometimes bright and sometimes dark, and the atmosphere was a little bit more romantic.

It was difficult not to think of that night....

Along the way, they all remained silent, and there was only the faint sound of the car engine. No one spoke.

"Was he shy too?"

There was pink flush on Anthea's face. The jeep had arrived at Vaden High School without her noticing it. Seeing that the car slowed down and stopped at the gate of the school, she clenched her fists. Before he could make a sound, she open her mouth first. "Uncle Adam, that night..."
