Chapter 439 We’re Family

Ellen was surprised “Gianna? Your sister-in-law?”

Brain smiled as he nodded. “That’s right. She’s super amazing!” Suddenly, something came into her mind and Ellen said, “Silas told me that she’s the one who cured your grandpa’s sickness, and now she has even treated yours. I didn’t expect my daughter-in-law to be so marvelous.”

As she was saying this, her eyes were glistening Standing by the door, Silas glanced toward Gianna, looking like he was trying to say. You see that?

Mom is very satisfied with you Gianna had to admit that Ellen’s remarks had got rid of the uneasiness in her heart. Tightening her lips, she was feeling a little bit happy Silas led Gianna and South into the living room. “Later, you can ask Gianna to give you an examination too.” Rising to her feet, Ellen laughed. “I’m okay. You don’t have to worry about me. Go wash your hands; dinner’s ready.”

Locking eyes with each other in secret, both South and Gianna broke into a smile. The three of them washed their hands and went to the dining table.

“Gianna, Brian told me that you cured him. You’re so amazing. I found many doctors to look at his complications but none of them had any idea, I didn’t expect that you could help him. I… I really don’t know how to thank you,” said Ellen. Gianna was not used to this kind of situation, so she could only laugh. “You don’t have to thank me. This is what I’m supposed to do.”

Helplessly, Ellen sighed. “Back then, I was always worried that both Silas and Brian would turn bad. I was so preoccupied that I couldn’t live my life peacefully. I had to nag him every time he visited me.

He’s probably getting tired of my nagging, but still, he only ever tells me the good news. In fact, now that the Internet is so developed, it’s easy for me to find out something if I want to. Whenever I heard of the dangers they encountered, or that the two of them were in a fight again, I couldn’t sleep for nights.

It’s only because of you that I can sit down and eat with them at the same table.”.

As she said that, she looked at the brothers. “Aren’t the two of you going to give Gianna a toast?” The brothers glanced at each other and couldn’t help laughing. They raised the wine glasses on the table toward Gianna and said, “Thank you, Gianna.” Even South followed suit. “Mommy, I thank you too!”

“Yes. Thank you, my daughter-in-law!” said Ellen.

Gianna was dumbstruck.

Everyone at the table was looking at her and their gaze was so kind. Gianna felt like a moon surrounded by stars as she was sitting in the middle.

She had completely let go of the stone in her heart that was troubling her all day. It looked like her future mother-in-law was someone very amiable!

Pursing her lips shyly, she raised her wine glass. “We’re no strangers. You guys don’t have to be so polite.” Ellen laughed. “That’s right. We’re family. There’s no need to behave that way. Gianna, quick;

try the spicy crayfish I prepared.” Right when Gianna thanked everyone and wanted to reach for the dish, Silas was one step ahead. He put gloves on and started peeling the crayfish for everyone.

Everyone was given the peeled crayfish; the atmosphere was very warm and relaxing.

After the dinner, Silas looked at Ellen who was busy tidying up the table, and said, “Mom, come and take a seat. I have something to ask you.” Ellen put her work aside and sat down in surprise. She asked, “What is it?” Silas said, “For so many years, I didn’t dare to ask about what had happened back then. But now that it has been so long and you’re blessed with children and grandchildren, you wouldn’t mind if I were to ask, right?” “It’s okay. You can ask,” chuckled Ellen. Looking at Gianna and Brian, Silas then asked, “Why does Edward like Lara so much? I’ve analyzed the situation together with Gianna, and we feel like it’s impossible for Edward to do things to such extent for Lara!”

Silently, Ellen let out a long sigh. As if she had gone back to thirty years ago, she stared blankly into the distance. “Of course, he wouldn’t like her for no reason. It’s because he thought that Lara was the one that saved his life.”
