Chapter 89: Chapter 88: Scheming Minds

"Hello, Aunt." Elliana Lyle politely and sweetly greeted, appearing very calm, giving the first impression of being a well-behaved child.

Facing Elliana, Daisy Hue felt somewhat awkward and distant. She didn’t have any familial affection for this girl who suddenly returned, and even treating her as a guest felt uncomfortable.

"It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back," Daisy Hue said perfunctorily, feeling a mix of emotions inside.

Afterward, Elliana followed Grandma Hue into the house. She wasn’t particularly happy; the unfamiliar environment made her feel somewhat uneasy.

In the evening, the Hue Family held a banquet to welcome her home.

The entire Hue Family sat together, except for one person, Uncle’s daughter, Summer Hue, who was still studying abroad, with no clear idea of when she would return.

Besides the seven cousins of her generation, there was also one aunt, an uncle, a grandfather, and a grandmother.

Grandfather looked relatively astute, and his body was rather lean. Her second aunt looked at her with only scrutiny, as if her mood was also quite complex.

The brothers and sisters merely exchanged a few polite words and then stopped talking.

Only her uncle and grandmother chatted with her with cheerful smiles.

"Elliana, drink some pigeon soup, it’s very nourishing. Look how thin you are."

With the dishes served, Uncle Frank Hue directly picked up an empty bowl, ready to serve her soup. Aunt Crystal King quickly took the bowl from him with a smile, naturally served the soup, and handed it to Elliana next to her.

"Your uncle is right, you need to build up your strength. Your face shows no flesh," Crystal King said with a smile, occasionally glancing surreptitiously at the old lady’s expression.

"Thank you, Auntie." Elliana gave her a sweet smile. She was quite familiar with both her uncle and aunt; they were the only ones she knew well at this dining table.
