Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage novel Chapter 191

Chapter 191 Old Mrs. Riley Doted on Her Daughter-in-Law and Dealt with the Bully

As soon as Logan finished speaking, old Mrs. Riley left the house and called out joyfully.

"Adeline."

Adeline bowed and lowered the ramp of Curtis's car, then she tied his wheelchair securely and began to push him down.

Hearing that old Mrs. Riley calling for her, her body instinctively trembled.

After she managed to land Curtis on the ground, she turned around and responded, "Grandma."

Old Mrs. Riley warmly shook Adeline's hand, smiling as she examined Adeline more closely. She was very pleased to see her.

She turned her head and scolded Logan, "Don't you see that your Uncle Curtis is here? Why don't you offer to help? Look at how considerate Adeline is. She knows the importance of respecting the elderly and caring for the young even though she was young."

Then, she turned to Curtis and said, "Look at you. Adeline is so considerate. You, as the elder, don't seem to know how to take care of others. Look how cold these little hands are."

Curtis was speechless.

At the same time, Alston and Yetta, who were also there to make sure nothing had happened, almost choked on their saliva when they heard old Mrs. Riley's words.

Alston repeated with a faint smile, "Yes, she's very respectful to the elderly and caring for the young."

Adeline didn't say anything.

Old Mrs. Riley took Adeline by the hand and walked away while she was saying, "Stop standing there. I had Shaylee prepare some hot soup to keep you all warm. Everyone, go inside and have some before sleeping."

The others moved towards the dining table.

Victoria, who was worried that something might go wrong, hurriedly put on her coat and came downstairs.

Viola, who was lodging there temporarily also came down and called sweetly, "Grandma."

"What makes you here?" Old Mrs. Riley's expression turned cold.

"It was Aunt who invited me to Uncle's birthday party. She was concerned that my sister would be uncomfortable on her own here, so she invited me to accompany her," while Viola was speaking, she was looking at Victoria.

Victoria replied with a smile, "That's right, Mom. I was worried that Adeline would be alone."

"Oh? So, are you saying that nobody in this house can keep her company now?" Old Mrs. Riley raised her eyebrow, her tone tinged with sarcasm as she glanced at Victoria.

"This year, your husband's birthday party is low-key, just for the family to gather. As the wife, shouldn't you have a sense of propriety?"

Victoria tried to joke and make herself less embarrassed, "Mom, where are these words coming from? Viola and Adeline are sisters. She is part of the family too."

Old Mrs. Riley snorted, "It's right that they are sisters, but there are distinctions in closeness. It's fine for her to come and have a meal. We can afford this little meal expense. What I'm afraid of is that some people's ambitions soar to the sky while their abilities are paper-thin, yet they still think they can achieve the impossible."

Adeline was shocked.

Old Mrs. Riley was very blunt with her words!
