Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 90

Christopher's mother, Vanessa Collins, was the kindest and most enthusiastic lady whom Everleigh had ever seen. There was not a sense of superiority from her at all. Even though the Meyer family was one of the four top families of Ocpeace City and rarely showed up in the news, they were still worthy of the term 'wealthy family'.

Everleigh thought that Vanessa would only say a few polite words to her children at most, since the two children were not related to Christopher at all. At first, Everleigh was determined to not go along with Christopher's lies, but she did not expect Vanessa to show so much kindness and joy upon seeing her children.

"They are too cute. Alastair is the older brother, isn't he?"

Alastair seldom took the initiative to talk to strangers. Everleigh did not introduce them to each other, so he pouted his lips. His beautiful eyes filled with a calmness that surpassed his peers of the same age.

Adrienne blinked, "Yes, Alastair is a little older, so he is the elder brother!"

When Adrienne didn't speak, she was like a perfect little doll. As soon as she spoke, all her energy and liveliness came out. Who could dislike clever little girls?

Vanessa's heart was about to melt. She squatted down and imitated their childish voices, "Let me guess, you must be Adrienne, right?"

"That's right!"

"Then do you know who I am?" Vanessa pointed to herself, she looked at her with a kind smile.

Adrienne glanced at Christopher, who was next to her, and said generously, "I know, you are Uncle Christopher's mother!"

"Why do you still call him Uncle?" Vanessa hesitated for a moment, but she was quickly relieved, "It's alright, you may take your time."

After that, her kind smile returned to her face. "Alastair, Adrienne, I am your grandmother."

Upon hearing this, Adrienne looked somewhat hesitant.

"What's wrong?" Vanessa thought that she was too abrupt. She thought she scared the child, so she looked at Everleigh in confusion.

Everleigh patted Adrienne's head and whispered, "Adrienne, call her Grandma."

Adrienne shook her head, she was very innocent, "How can there be such a young grandmother? I can call her aunt at most."

Not a single woman in this world disliked being praised for being young and beautiful.

As soon as she said that, Vanessa was filled with joy. She held Adrienne in her arms and said, "Oh, God, you have given me such a cute and innocent granddaughter."

Everleigh and Christopher looked at each other silently with the same thoughts in their mind.

The two of them had never been worried about Adrienne's talents in winning other people's liking for her. Her eloquence was so great that she could even make kidnappers happy.

"But, you still have to call me grandmother. We must not mess up our seniority." Vanessa held Adrienne's hands and took her to the sofa. As she walked, she said, "Grandpa and I have prepared gifts for you. Come, take a look and see if you would like it."

Usually, Adrienne would rush over when she heard there were presents. But now, she pretended to be calm, though Everleigh and Christopher both knew that she was overjoyed.

Vanessa was busy playing with the children. Samuel, Christopher's father, who had been sitting on the sofa throughout, was completely ignored. He coughed several times but Vanessa never noticed. It was really awkward.

Obviously, Christopher was deliberately ignoring his father. After a while, he could not stand it anymore, he smiled to himself and introduced, "Everleigh, this is my father."

Everleigh accepted some tea from a servant and politely greeted him, "Nice to meet you."

Only then did Samuel's look ease a little. "Thank you for picking up Christopher."

"It's nothing. Besides, I had a day off from the hospital. I only worked for half a day."

"It must be busy working in the hospital. You are so young yet you have already become a deputy chief physician. You must be very capable and hard-working." Samuel spoke in a serious way. His words were nothing special; it was a general way for people his age to speak.

Everleigh did not feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, she thought he was kind, just like her father.
