Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 197 Where Are You Going?

Before the meal, Zachary made a token speech. On the one hand, it was about the New Year, on the other hand, as an elder, he welcomed the new family member, Yuliana; finally, he mentioned Annabelle.

“Annabelle, I hope you can recover soon and your career will go smoothly. Of all the siblings, you’re the only one who hasn’t gotten married. I also hope you can find your happiness too.”

Annabelle replied with a smile, “Thank you.”

Alexzander hurriedly answered, “Annabelle, when I grow up, I’ll marry you!”

Everyone burst into laughter.

After laughing, Annabelle wrinkled her nose and deliberately teased him, “How long do I have to wait then? You’re only eight years old this year. There are still fourteen years to go before you can marry me. Fourteen years later, I will be old.”

“Does it take that long?” Alexzander tilted his head and thought for a while. Then he smiled innocently, “It doesn’t matter. Even if you’re old, you’re still beautiful. I won’t dislike you!”

Joyce rubbed her son’s head and joked, “You won’t dislike Annabelle, but Annabelle will. All you know is playing games on the iPad all day. No girl will like you.”

“I don’t. You only give me an hour to play games on iPad on weekends!” Alexzander puffed out his cheeks and looked at Joyce with dissatisfaction. Then he suddenly remembered something. He looked at Christopher sitting across from him and snorted, “Uncle Chris also plays games on his mobile phone all day long, but Annabelle and Aunt Yuliana like him still.”

Alexzander’s words turned the atmosphere in the restaurant tense.

Christopher looked over at Alexzander. He said with a smile, “That’s because I’m tall and handsome. What about you? You’re short and fat like a ball. Do you think any girl that’s not blind will like you?”

Short and fat were Alexzander’s sore points. Hearing this, he flew into a rage.

“Christopher!” Alexzander was so angry that he called his name directly. He glared at him for a moment and said in a loud voice, “I’m only eight years old. In a few years, I will definitely be taller and more handsome than you!”
