Chapter 186 Jared took Agnesâ hand and announced, âYes, Iâm marriedâ
Anna exclaimed with surprise, âBut she looks so young!â
Jared laughed and said, âI just have a thing for young, pretty girls. Whatâs wrong with that?â
Agnes nearly laughed out loud. He actually said that out loud!
Her mood brightened a lot.
Jared always cared about her feelings.
Alyssa chuckled, âYou announce it to everyone you meet. The whole world knows youâre married now, stop bragging.â
From start to finish, Anna and Ryder didnât interact.
Ever since Jared announced his marriage, Anna seemed a lot quieter.
Ryder was like a ghost, silently eating his food.
Agnes really loved oysters. When there was only one oyster left on the plate, both Agnes and Ryder reached for it.
Agnes paused and withdrew her hand. Ryder took the oyster without any hesitation and put it on his plate.
Alyssa, who was sitting beside them, saw this.
She scolded Ryder, âHow could you be so thoughtless?â
Ryder acted as if he didnât hear her.
Agnes quickly said, âItâs okay, Iâm Ryderâs aunt, I should let him have it.â
Ryderâs hand paused noticeably.
Actually, Agnes knew Ryder did it on purpose.
When there were many oysters before, he didnât eat any, but he just had to fight her for the last one.
Ryder was just unhappy with her, both at school and at home.
Agnes was really angry inside. She knew Ryder was particularly bothered by the fact that she was his aunt, so she decided to suppress him with her status as an elder. Sure enough, Ryder suddenly said, âIâm done eating, Iâm going back to my room.â
After finishing his sentence, he got up and left.
Actually, this was not the first time this had happened. Many times before, as long as she was present, Ryder would leave early.
The fact that he stayed until the end of dinner today was already quite rare.
The Whitfield family all thought that Ryder was just going through puberty, so they didnât pay much attention to it.
After dinner-Wallace and Tim were chatting in the study.
Anna took Agnes to chat in the yard.
Jared went upstairs to Ryderâs room.
Ryder was in his room writing a report.
F ༢ ༤ ༢ ༤ à½à½à½à¼¤à¼¢ Looking at the professional data on the computer, he felt so annoyed for the first time that he couldnât even read a single word.
Jared walked in. Ryder was surprised, âWhy are you here?â
Jared walked over to Ryder and handed him a small rectangular black box, âThis is a gift I brought back for you from my last business trip. Ryder opened the box and saw a black fountain pen inside.
Jared asked, âDo you like it?â
Ryder smiled and said, âYouâve shaped my taste since I was young. I like anything you choose.â
Jared casually said. âThen why donât you like the aunt I chose for you?â
Ryder seemed to pause for a moment. He quietly closed the box.
Casually sitting on Ryderâs desk, Jared calmly asked, âCan you tell me why you donât like Agnes?â
