Chapter 163: Chapter 161: Uninvited Guest

"Oh my, Elliana, come over here to grandma."

The kindly old woman in front of her is Mrs. Bennett. Perhaps due to her age, she is wearing a thin cotton jacket and is in a wheelchair, evidently due to mobility issues.

Elliana obediently walked over to Mrs. Bennett, crouched down beside the wheelchair, and said, "Grandma."

"Good child." Mrs. Bennett held her hand, looking her over carefully, and said with a smile, "I heard from Norman that you two have got your marriage certificate. Oh, it’s finally official. Your wedding must be grand, it must be grand."

Eliza cheered, "I want to be the flower girl for Uncle’s wedding, and Uncle has to give me the biggest red envelope."

So far, the biggest red envelope Norman has given Eliza is probably a villa located in North City Park.

Shawn Bennett looked at his granddaughter asking for red envelopes, smiling, and said, "Hasn’t Uncle given you enough red envelopes? You should think about what to give him."

"Uncle lacks nothing, what can I give?"

The lively atmosphere of the Bennett Family, to Elliana’s eyes, was enviable, and she was also grateful she could be part of such a wonderful family.

"Alright, alright, you must be hungry. Let’s eat and chat slowly afterward," Mrs. Bennett urged.

The family sat down according to seniority.

"Eliza, where’s your mom? Has your uncle returned?" Mrs. Bennett only noticed the absence of two people after everyone was seated.

Eliza felt a bit uneasy and then said, "Great-grandmother, my mom is still outside, and my uncle seems to be out too."

Just as they spoke of him, here came Simon King, and beside him, apart from the complex expression on Julia’s face, was a woman dressed in a beige cheongsam.

This woman made everyone present freeze for a moment, and Mrs. Bennett, who had been all smiles, immediately darkened her expression.

The atmosphere at the dining table suddenly became heavy, and no one spoke for a while; even Eliza quieted down.

To break the silence, Julia said, "Grandma, today might be a family dinner, but our Bennett Family always welcomes guests."

King glared at Julia and then led Mia Clarke to an empty seat, saying, "Mom, I’ve brought Mia Clarke
