Chapter 921 - Queenie’s Secret
She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment
In the room were some shelves, on which were placed some boxes containing all sorts of treasures.
On the innermost wall hung an enshrined black and white photo.
In the photo was a woman in her twenties. She had a bright smile on her face, but everyone knew that this woman had been dead for many years.
Queenie walked forward. As she did, her hips swayed from side to side, as did the red wine glass in her hand.
She went up to the photo, and then, poured the red wine onto the ground.
âDaddy, have you not been watching my live-streams lately? You havenât been tipping me at all! Sponsor Grandpa has become the No. 1 patron now.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Cherry stretched out her chubby fingers and showed off while speaking coquettishly in her young and tender voice, âGrandpa and I make video calls every day! But you disappeared for a month and didnât look for me even once! Cherry is mad!â
After speaking, she placed her hands on her hips and turned her back to Justin. Her big dark eyes, though, were darting left and right erratically. Justin rubbed his daughterâs head and said, âIâve been busy with something really important. What can I do to appease Cherry?â Cherry blinked and then grinned at him. âHelp me get my game account back! If you make it one without a time limit, I wonât be mad at you anymore! Otherwise, Cherry will be really sad because sheâs thinking of you every day but doesnât have games to kill time with!â
Cherry had ADHD in the past, so Nora had allowed her to play games.
But Nora had recently noticed that Cherryâs two elder brothersâ presence had helped her overcome the disorder, so Nora had disabled her unlimited access game account.
It wasnât advisable for minors to play games for too many hours a day.
But because Cherry liked the game, she had pestered Justin to remove the time limit on the account, which Nora changed back later.
As a result, Cherry could only play for an hour a day.
Upon hearing what Cherry said, a pampering look filled Justinâs eyes and he said, âYou not only say that youâre mad at me but also that you miss me a lot, but in the end, itâs all just for the game account, isnât it?â
Cherry turned around and wheedled cutely, âBut Iâm really bored. After playing for an hour, I spend the remaining 23 hours missing you!â
âWhat nonsense.â
Next to her, Pete exposed her lie straightaway. âYou still have to sleep for ten hours a day!â
Cherry: â?â
She raised her chin. âI miss Daddy in my dreams when I sleep!â
Pete went on and said dryly, âBut what you said in your sleep was: âTeam battle time! Go! Wipe! Wipe!â
ââ¦Even so, there are still thirteen hours left for me to miss Daddy!â retorted Cherry.
From the side, Xander also said, âYou always take your sweet time when you eat, so you take at least four hours to finish all three meals a day.â Cherry: â?â
âI-I think about Daddy when I eat!â Xander said, âBut what you said was: âNow that I donât have games to play, even the food doesnât taste good anymore. Why isnât the day over yet? I wanna play gamesâ¦â
âOh, you also spend four hours watching other peopleâs live-streamsâ¦â
âYou also spend time savoring every detail of the team battle and ramble at me for two hours, and then at Xander for another twoâ¦â
âYou also spend time regretting that you didnât diss others in a wittier manner when you were playingâ¦â
âYou also spend time pestering Mommy to release the child restrictions for youâ¦â
âYou alsoâ¦â
Her two elder brothers thoroughly exposed her.
Cherryâs eyes were damp with tears. âPete! Xander! You two are horrible!â
Pete said, âStop playing games and do some Mathematical Olympiad practice instead!â
Xander said, âOr come and study dissection with me? Human anatomy is very interestingâ¦â
Justin couldnât bear to see his precious daughter being bullied. He picked up Cherry and said, âIs that how the two of you should be treating your younger sister? Alright, hush, Cherryâ¦â âCan Daddy remove the child restrictions for me then?â
âIâll have to ask your mom about thatâ¦â
Nora stood at the side. As she listened to the four of them chit-chat, she raised her head and looked at the upper floor.
That mysterious room had been opened, and her aunt was inside.
No one knew what she was looking at. As Nora thought back to what Trueman had said, she heaved a silent sigh.
Her aunt always said that she would let Nora see the things in that room when the time was right, and when that happened, her auntâs identity would also be revealed. But when would it ever be the time?
While Nora was musing, her cell phone suddenly rang. When she answered, Ianâs voice came from the other end.
âNora, I think I know who your aunt is!â
Noraâs pupils shrank. âWho is she?â
âIâm about to board my flight. Iâll tell you when I get there.â
When he got here?
Ian was flying over? For Ian to become so excited that he would come over in person, just who on earth was Queenie??
