One Meet By Chance novel Chapter 396

"Abby, Miss Fiona, let's go inside."

Jerome, who had been standing beside the two, didn't speak until the people in front of him had gone far.

"Jerome, sorry to bother you."

Fiona politely nodded to Jerome. Jerome looked at Fiona and nodded at her too. It seemed that she had walked out of the shadow, which was good for Abby to rest assured. However, he looked into the distance with deep eyes. This time, to his surprise, Enrique agreed to let Abby and the people she cared return to the Gu Family.

Was he not afraid that the Gu Family hide Abby again? Or?

Jerome cast a glance at Teresa, who was walking beside him. 'Has Abby forgiven Enrique and the two of them reconciled?' he wondered in his heart. So?' Soon, Jerome also saw the marks on Teresa's neck. He frowned slightly. It seemed that his worries were unnecessary.

"Oh, Abby, mom is back."

Teresa, who had been in a good mood, was a little stiff and unnatural.

"Ah!"

"She went on a trip with her friends before. Now she heard that you were going to get married, so she came back early."

"Okay, I know."

Teresa lowered her head. Of course, Fiona, who was standing next to her, felt the uneasiness and nervousness of her. In her family stories, she rarely mentioned her mother. Now she remembered that she seemed to deliberately ignore her. Then, who on earth was this Mrs. Gu? How could she make Teresa nervous?

The garden of the Gu Family was very large. After walking for a long time, Albert finally stood at the door. When he entered the house, he saw a woman in neat clothes standing there. Seeing him come back, she stood up.

"Albert you are back. Gavin, my husband didn't bring you any trouble, did he?"

Harris stood aside, feeling a little embarrassed. Albert could feel his emotion. Although Albert always pissed Harris off, Harris was a very important friend of his in his heart.

"How can I cause trouble to others? Look, who is coming?"

It was not until then that the well-dressed woman looked at Harris and was shocked.

"Is this Mr. Harris? Ouch, rare guest. Come on, have a seat. Why don't you bring tea to the guests?"

"Mrs. Ashley, you don't have to do such a thing."

For so many years, this woman was still the same as before, making him nervous. Albert beside frowned.

"Harris is not a guest. He is my good friend. He was, is and always will be a good friend of mine. Don't say such kind of thing to him anymore. Harris. Just take a seat. I've told you that the air in my house is better than yours."

Harris sat aside and glanced at Albert indifferently. This time, he did not refute. At this time, Lena also took the two kids into the house. Harris saw clearly that Albert's wife frowned imperceptibly when she saw the two children.

"Brain, Bruce, This is your Grandma Ashley."

Brain and Bruce stepped forward and called the woman in a sweet voice.

"Hello, Grandma Ashley. I'm Brain."

"Hello, Grandma Ashley. I'm Bruce."

When the two children were about to hold the woman's hands, they saw her take a step back slightly.

"Hello. Lena. Take the two kids to have some desserts there. Don't neglect the guest."

As soon as Teresa and the other two entered the room, they heard Ashley's words. Jerome frowned, 'Guest?' Seeing the woman, Teresa nodded slightly.

"Mom."

The woman forced a smile.

"Abby you are back. We haven't seen each other for so many years. You look the same as before."

Fiona nodded politely to the woman. Her intuition told her that... No, there was no need for her to use her intuition. The atmosphere at the scene and the woman's attitude had shown everything. This woman didn't like Teresa, and she looked very difficult to deal with.

"Hello, Aunt Ashley."

"Oh, you are a friend of Abby? Just do whatever you want."

When the woman turned around, Fiona was a little embarrassed. Was it because she didn't wear expensive clothes with brand, so Ashley treat her so differently? Teresa pulled Fiona aside and said in a low voice.

"I'm sorry, Fiona. My mother is always like this. Please don't mind."

"Why did you say sorry to me? Now I finally know why you liked to skip this woman when you told me about your family. It seems that she treats you bad."

Fiona pinched Teresa's hand and winked at her playfully. Teresa smiled and thought that Fiona was still the one she knew. The servants of Gu Family quickly arranged rooms for everyone. In the living room.

"Hey, put the guests' luggage to the guest rooms." Ashley ordered the servants beside her.

"Aunt Ashley, don't bother. I can sleep with Teresa."

"Teresa? Oh, you said Abby? You'd better not, in case others say that our Gu Family don't treat our guests well and don't even prepare guest rooms for them."

Seeing that Fiona was defeated again, Teresa didn't know how to speak for her, so she had to hold her hand and apologize with her eyes.

Albert took a look at his wife and found that she was still the same, even though Abby had left home for so many years. He shook his head slightly. After all, he had been with her more than half of his life. How could he not know his wife's temper?

"Albert, your wife is still the same as before. She hasn't changed at all."

Harris whispered in Albert's ear, and Albert only gave Harris a faint look. He had wanted to say that it was better than having no wife, but he was afraid that it would poke Harris's heart, so he didn't say it in the end. As for Gavin, he had already run back to the small yard where he lived to see his granddaughter. After packing up, Teresa took Fiona and the two children to stroll around the big garden of the Gu Family in the afternoon sunshine. ...

"Brain, Bruce, look at that place. When I was a child, I often hid in the flowering shrubs with your Uncle Jerome and Auntie Lena so that Grandpa Albert and Grandma Ashley could not find us."

Brain and Bruce had been in low spirits the whole afternoon. Teresa planned to take them out for fun so that they could cheer up. She thought that children's mood would recover soon, but these two kids were not.

"Mommy. Does Grandma Ashley dislike Bruce and me? She said we were guests."

Brain, who was originally happy, also sensitively sensed that Ashley's alienation. Looking at Brain and Bruce, Teresa felt sorry for them and squatted down to hold the two of them in her arms.

Fiona put her hand on Teresa's shoulder. As anyone could see, Ashley didn't just simply dislike Brain and Bruce. She didn't like everyone who was related about Teresa except for the member of the Gu Family.
