Chapter 1033

"Annie, how are things going with the Nettleton family?"

Annie, thinking her parents were asking about her engagement with Conner, replied casually, "I've talked it over with Conner. Once we find my sister, the engagement's back on track." Her parents exchanged knowing looks. "Annie, did you happen to run into that guy you used to like in Havenbrook, uh, Chad?"

Annie cut in quickly, "Mom, Dad, let's drop that. Conner would get all jealous if he knew. Plus, Chad's married now and even has a kid. It's best to leave the past where it belongs." Mrs. Martin chimed in again, "So, Annie, didn't you meet any other nice guys in Havenbrook?"

The Martins shifted uncomfortably. "There's nothing wrong, sweetheart. We're just concerned about you. Honestly, maybe it's best to keep some distance from the Nettleton family. We only want you to find a good guy and have a peaceful life. We don't care about riches or status; we just want a simple life for you."

Sensing something was off, Annie got suspicious. "What's going on, you two?"

Annie chuckled. "With Conner in the picture, even there was a decent guy around, do you think Conner would let it slide?"

Noticing her parents' odd behavior, Annie's gaze sharpened. "Tell me the truth, did my sister... reach out to you?"
