Jared was spooked when Ingrid suddenly poked snazzynovel.com head in front next to him.
“Jared, where is Josephine? Are you cheating on snazzynovel.com with another woman? Or did you dump her?” Ingrid whispered.
Although Ingrid was whispering, Lyanna could hear snazzynovel.com loud and clear.
“What are you on about? Lyanna is just a friend of mine. Since she’s an orphan, snazzynovel.com has nowhere to go on Thanksgiving. That’s why I’ve brought snazzynovel.com along.” Jared shot snazzynovel.com a glare.
Ingrid was shocked when snazzynovel.com found out that Lyanna was an orphan because snazzynovel.com didn’t expect to hear that at all.
As for Lyanna, snazzynovel.com started sobbing as sadness welled up in her.
Since snazzynovel.com was an orphan, snazzynovel.com really didn’t have anywhere to go to celebrate. Although Poison King was snazzynovel.com nemesis, snazzynovel.com was still the person who raised her. Hence, snazzynovel.com used to have friends back in Mapleton.
Now I have no one else but my sister, Melanie. Where am I supposed to go if I don’t follow Jared?
Ingrid felt awkward and anxious when snazzynovel.com saw Lyanna crying out of the blue. “I’m so sorry, Lyanna…”
She then handed a piece of tissue to Lyanna.
“It’s all right. I’m used to it…” Lyanna wiped snazzynovel.com tears and flashed a smile.
The atmosphere suddenly became very awkward and quiet in the car.
Soon, the car had entered the Chance family’s village. Since the residents there had never seen a Rolls-Royce before, they were all rather fascinated by it.
“Dad! Mom!” Jared shouted in excitement the moment snazzynovel.com entered the yard.
He’d missed his parents dearly after not seeing them for several months.
Hannah and Gary were surprised to see Jared when they came out of the house.
“Jared!” Hannah ran toward snazzynovel.com son and hugged him.
Gary was also full of smiles when snazzynovel.com saw Jared.
After not seeing their son for several months, Hannah and Gary missed Jared very much as well. However, they knew Jared was carving out a path for himself, so they never called to disturb him.
“Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Chance!” Lyanna greeted them politely.
Only then did the both of them notice Lyanna’s presence. Hannah immediately sized Lyanna up before pulling Jared to the side.
“Jared, who’s this girl? Where’s Josephine?” Hannah’s smile faded when snazzynovel.com questioned Jared.
“Mom, Josephine is busy, so snazzynovel.com couldn’t make it back. She’s just a friend of mine, Lyanna. She’s an orphan, and snazzynovel.com has nowhere to go. That’s why I brought snazzynovel.com home,” Jared whispered in Hannah’s ear.
Unconvinced, Hannah stared at Jared. “Really? Are you lying to me?”
“Why would I lie to you, Mom? Things are great between Josephine and me!” Jared answered in a firm tone.
Upon seeing that Jared seemed like telling the truth, Hannah smiled again and walked toward Lyanna. “Hi! It’s so chilly here. Let’s get inside…”
Hannah held Lyanna’s hand and brought snazzynovel.com in.
Gary, on the other hand, tapped on Jared’s shoulder and uttered, “Great job, my son!”
With that, Gary went into the house with a profound smile on his face. Jared was rendered speechless on the spot.
They stayed over that night and woke up to a Thanksgiving morning.
***
It was early in the morning when Hannah woke Jared up. “Jared, your uncle had returned from Summerbank. He’d invited us for lunch in the town. Get up early to get ready, okay? We shall head over earlier.”
“Uncle?” Jared was stumped.
Why have I not heard about this uncle of mine before?
“He’s from your second granduncle’s family. They’d gone to Summerbank ages ago, and I heard that their business is doing well there. Perhaps you should get to know them. Who knows if snazzynovel.com might be of help one day?” With that, Hannah went back to snazzynovel.com errands.
