162.Chapter 162
Seeing Michael pushing her away, Jennifer crouched down and tried to please him “Mike, did my words yesterday frighten you? I’m sorry Please don’t be angry. You and your mom are the only family I have
Teresa rubbed Michael’s hair. “Hannah has apologized to you. We’re staying in Mareigh, and you’ll definitely see Mr. Lime again, okay?”
Michael was still clinging to Teresa as he spoke. “Aunt Hannah, Mom said she’s you won’t think of leaving”
Teresa was stunned and exclaimed inwardly, Hey, I never said that. It was your Michael chuckled and looked up at Teresa, blinking “Morn, you said that, right?” Teresa ruffled his hair and sighed. “You little rascal‘
g to find a nice husband for you so
Jennifer chuckled and didn’t take it to heart. After lunch with Teresa and Michael, Jennifer returned to the hospital Teresa felt a bit sad and mused, Hannah bought some snacks to please Michael, likely worried he might hold a grudge against her. She’s a little extreme. Maybe because of her childhood experiences, she longs for the warmth and love of a family”
“Mommy, Aunt Hannah tapped your head when she left. She never did that before, Michael commented while eating bread “That’s because we’re family now. People reveal their true selves with those they’re closest to. I often tap your head, too.” Having that said, Teresa acted on it.
Michael covered his head and rolled his eyes at Teresa.
Since Teresa was free that afternoon, she spent time reading and playing games with Michael. Michael, who liked to count when bored, could now count from one to 200.
Cheryl had praised Michael in the group chat a few days ago, saying he inherited Jonathan’s intelligence and that becoming the top student in the city would be no problem for him.
Speaking of the group chat, Teresa had created one named “Muffin’s Friends.” In the group, she had labeled herself as the group leader, Miriam as the deputy group leader, and Cheryl as a level–one member.
Teresa also added Jennifer to the group chat and explained to Miriam and Cheryl that Jennifer was her biological sister Jennifer had gone missing when Teresa was three, and they were finally reunited now.
Cheryl was the most surprised and sent several ‘mind–blown” emojis with the message: [Gosh, I can’t believe Dr. Nelson is actually Teresa’s sister! Donald is in love with Dr. Nelson. If we become a family, our relationship will be very complicated.]
Cheryl: [Teresa, so both you and your sister will be joining our family?
Jennifer replied to her with a smirk emoji and the message: [Rest assured. That definitely won’t happen.]
Cheryl went on: [If that’s the case, our families‘ bonds will be stronger!]
Jennifer added: [Teresa has divorced Jonathan and won’t remarry him. As for Donald and I, we’ll never get into a
relationship. Thus, neither of us will be joining your family.]
Cheryl felt slightly annoyed as she was only making a joke and didn’t expect Jennifer to be so serious.
Teresa changed the topic. I’m so happy to be reuniting with Jennifer! To celebrate, I’m sending everyonera shopping card.]
With that, she emailed three shopping cards, each worth $100, for a total of $300.
Seeing that, Jennifer privately messaged Teresa and criticized her for wasting money like that.
Teresa helplessly replied: [Hannah, they’re just small gifts and only cost a few hundred dollars.]
Jennifer was pissed. [What a spendthrift you are! I’ve noticed your spending habits long ago. I was not in a position to comment on anything before we were reunited, but now, as your sister, I have to keep you in check.
[You were spoiled by Philip and Evelyn and never needed to worry about anything before this. However, you’re an adult with a child now. Shouldn’t you think about saving for your child’s future?|
Teresa bristled. Her strong personality meant she didn’t like being lectured, but Jennifer was her sister, so she didn’t retort
Jennifer asked: [Why aren’t you talking?
Teresa returned to her senses and took a deer Successfully unlocked! wrong. Everything I do is wrong..
satisfied?
Are you
Jennifer texted. [You’re going to wear me out. I’m just worried about your reckless spending. Well, I’m returning that card to your account. Spend your money wisely in the future]
Jennifer didn’t say anything more, and neither did Teresa.
