Abby was wearing a short-sleeved western-style dress, and the hemline of this dress was under her knees, revealing two fair and white calves of her.
Although her dressing style appeared to be simple, she had in fact spent a lot of effort on it. She didn't wear any jewelry on purpose, but only a jade bracelet on her wrist, and her makeup was light. As a result, she looked dignified and elegant today, and elders like Meadow would like such an appearance.
Meadow was indeed a little surprised.
Why wasn't she Tina?
When Meadow heard on the phone that Wilson would bring someone home, she subconsciously thought it must be Tina. Last time, when Meadow met Tina, she very kindly invited the latter to visit her home someday...
Was she thinking too much? But that day in the restaurant, Meadow had clearly seen that Wilson and Tina behaved like two lovers.
What's more, that day was the Chinese Lovers' Day!
As for Abby, she was the only inheritress of the Amery family. Meadow had met her several times at different banquets. Moreover, Abby had known Wilson for many years. For this reason, Meadow's impression on Abby was good. She thought that Abby always behaved like a lady.
However, Meadow was still somewhat disappointed at seeing Abby tonight, because she was actually expecting to see Tina.
No matter how, Abby was a guest. Meadow went forward and greeted them, and she was smiling again.
It was a family feast for the Mid-Autumn Festival tonight, and therefore everyone would be welcome.
Wilson never thought about bringing an outsider back home. Even if he had changed his mind and agreed to Abby s proposal, it was just for the purpose of strategic business cooperation. It didn't mean he sincerely thought that Abby was one of his family members.
However, when he finished working overtime and walked out of the office building, he saw that Abby had come with some gifts in her hands.
Abby told Wilson that she wanted to visit the Chin family with him tonight. She had not seen his parents, Bellamy and Meadow, for so many years, and she wanted to visit them again, and at the same time convey the good wishes of Bill Amery and his wife to Wilson's parents.
This was virtually a goodwill from the Amery family to the Chin Family, and Wilson thought that it would be inappropriate for him to refuse her.
In fact, Abby had her own schemes.
She deeply understood that in Wilson's eyes, the so- called marriage between the two families on the basis of business cooperation was not realistic and appealing. What she wanted was to take advantage of this opportunity to please Wilson's parents and win their supports.
Trying to become Wilson's wife step by step, and with smart tactics: This was indeed Abby's ultimate goal.
The smile on Abby's face seemed to have been carved out. She enthusiastically went forward and greeted Meadow, "Hello, Auntie Chin Happy MidAutumn Festival!"
Meadow nodded with a smile, and then invited Abby into the villa.
In the kitchen, the servants were busy with their work.
Except for Wilson, Bellamy and Meadow had other two sons. Adam Chin, who was the oldest, was unable to come back because he was engaged in a military mission. The youngest, Simon Chin, seldom came back home with the excuse of being busy in the hospital.
Tonight, the family of Wilson's little uncle had come over here, and there were many people inside the villa.
Meadow went to the kitchen to check whether the dinner was well prepared. Wilson's little uncle and aunt talked to Bellamy and Wilson in the living room. Simon Chin had not arrived yet, while Selene was in low spirits. After coming to the villa, she directly locked herself in one of the rooms.
As Abby and Selene had a good personal relationship, she went into the room and tried to console the latter.
But it didn't work.
Selene was so sentimentally attached to Dylan that she couldn't accept anyone's advice. She was especially despairing now that she had learned about that Dylan was going to marry Tina, which meant that she had no hope at all. It was such a heavy blow to her mental state.
Abby pretended that she was sincerely consoling Selene. In fact, she was extremely pleased with the news that Dylan was going to marry Tina.
One of the servants knocked on the door to inform everyone that the dinner was about to begin. Selene was so depressed that she didn't want to eat dinner. For this reason, Abby went downstairs alone.
When she passed through the hallway, she was unexpectedly hit on the shoulder by a man who walked in with his head lowered.
It was impossible for any of the Chin family's servants to be so rash.
Abby was not annoyed. She simply smiled at the man and said, "Desmond, nice to meet you here."
After leaving Tina, Desmond drove his car directly to the villa of the Chin family. With the lunch box of porridge in his hand, he walked so hurriedly that he carelessly hit Abby's shoulder.
