Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 1677 Clarified Misunderstandings (Part Two)

"I came here with my kids, and I'll be here for about two to three months. Rain mentioned the other day

that he wanted to introduce you to me. I didn't expect that we would meet like this without his help."

Since her having her own children was no longer a secret, it was not necessary for her to hide it.

"Really? Rain has told you that?" It seemed that everyone had seen Annie and known that she was in

town, except for her.

"Yes he did! He had nothing but good words and praise for you." Rain was right about Leena. She was

one of the easiest people to get along with.

"Pfft! Please stop! I still have a lot of shortcomings." Leena was a little embarrassed. It was supposed

to be a good thing to be praised, but when the praise was conveyed by others, she felt a little weird.

"Don't be too humble. We're used to following behind your shadow anyway." Patricia stared at Leena

with a bit of exasperation, because whenever Tom got angry at her, he always complained and told her

to be more like Leena and learn more from her. So over repeated arguments, she had the suspicion

that it was Leena, not herself, that Tom was in love with.

"Yes! Luke always said that to me as well and asked me to learn more from Leena." Michelle felt

helpless and just threw her hands in the air and rolled her eyes. It was not that she didn't want to but it

was really not an easy thing to do. Following Leena's footsteps to the Top? Impossible! Leena was

simply the darling of the gods. In any way, she could show and had always shown her talents, so highly

that it made others feel inadequate and ashamed about themselves.

"It seems that your excellence is really worth it." Thinking of her previous misunderstanding about her,

Annie felt a moment of shame. Since Leena was not Rain's wife, then the man she saw a few days ago

should be Leena's husband! She didn't know what his job was but she felt that he looked quite

handsome and upright.

"Oh, c'mon you guys! Don't even talk about me anymore. Annie has just arrived at S City, and we

should know more about her. " Leena's pretty face reddened as she unexpectedly was put in the hot

seat. She never thought that she would be the one to be put on the spot.

"Annie, how old are your children?" said Patricia. Hearing such an offer from Leena, she immediately

asked, because the most she had heard during recent times was that Rain had been waiting for the

return of his lover, but in vain. So she really wanted to know why Annie turned her back on Rain and fell

in love with someone else.

"After the Spring Festival, they should be four years old. What about you? I guess you all, already have

children!" Annie said in a pretty confident way. As an experienced mother, she was adept at observing

them and she also saw that many of their shopping bags were all filled with children's items.

"Yes! They are almost three years old. But Leena's child is a few months younger than my son and

Michelle's," said Patricia Speaking of children, Patricia still remembered Leena's prickling pain in her

bones, feeling as if it was just yesterday, jotted clearly in her memory.

"I recognize Lenna's son. His name is Richard, right? I saw him one time at a wine reception party held

by the FX International Group. He was very cute." 'At that time, I mistakenly thought that the little guy

was Rain's child, and now I feel so ashamed to even have thought about it. But I also blame Rain for

not explaining it clearly to me at that time, which was why I made such a big mistake.' Annie kept those

thoughts in her mind.

"Thank you! Annie, your children's father didn't come here together with you?" Leena asked and tried to

squeeze out more information from Annie. Yet, she was increasingly annoyed at herself as she was

digging too much into someone's privacy. But she had to, since she wanted to know more about her for

Rain.

"My children's father?" Annie didn't answer her directly but just repeated her words. 'How do I tell them

that my children's father is in fact, Rain?' she wondered.

"Yes! Your children's father. He seems confident enough to have you travel by yourself and that you will

live here alone." The man's name was said to be Fred, but Edward told her that they didn't look like Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

husband and wife, so she was really curious who the man would turn out to be.

"Well... He didn't come with us." Annie was a little flustered, feeling that her lie was getting bigger and

bigger. She knew that she had to stop it before it spun out of control.

"Okay. I got it! Annie, whenever it's convenient for you, you can always bring you kids to my home so

they can play and have fun together! Richard likes to play with children older than him." While in the

conversation, Leena was also observing Annie's reactions and body movements. She had the gut

feeling that Annie was hiding something.

"Well, that sounds like a good plan! I will let you know soon!" Although she felt a little indecisive, she

still agreed to Leena's invitation. However, the fear that her children's identity would no longer be

hidden, lingered in her mind. After all, Huey and Rain looked so much alike.

"I think the day after tomorrow would be a good day for a small get-together! It is going to be a

weekend, so I'm sure that everyone would be free and could come. " In this respect, Leena had an

impatient disposition, so she thought she should seize this opportunity as it might never come again.

"Ohh! So soon!" Annie was a little surprised since she didn't think Leena would be the person who

would do something as soon as she proposed it.

"I think the day after tomorrow will be convenient for us. Then, it's settled! When we go to Leena's

home, we can also have the chance to taste all the delicious dishes made by her. I am telling you, she

is a really good cook." Patricia said with excitement. She was 100% in favor of any party, and most

importantly, she hadn't had a chance to taste the delicious dishes made by Leena in a long time.

"Oh, really? I never knew that." Annie was surprised again. As the princess of the Leng Family, no one

would expect Leena to be so good at cooking, which was really a big surprise for Annie. Although she

could also cook, she was forced by her living environment to learn to cook after leaving home.

"Don't listen to her. She was exaggerating. My cooking skills are not really worth mentioning. It would

make the actual experts cringe when they hear it," Leena said with modest smile on her face. She was

really looking forward to seeing Annie's kids.

"Leena, are you making us look and sound awful on purpose? If your cooking skills are not worth

mentioning, then, how about ours?" Michelle said, pretending to be a little upset. Although she enrolled

in a cooking class, she always thought she had only scratched the surface, learning only the basic

cooking skills. Her son always disliked and even avoided eating the food she made.

The four women had a nice conversation as time slipped by without them noticing. So when the time to

bid farewell came, they all felt a little reluctant to say goodbye. But as they were all mothers with

children, they had to go home to their families.

"Huey, Mommy wants to ask you a question, okay?" Annie began to test his son that night, as there

was something that she could no longer keep inside.
