Reborn for Revenge or A Second Chance At Vengeance

Chapter 86

Only then did she remember that she had added Angela's WhatsApp that day.

Before checking her WhatsApp, Aurelia cast a glance at Matthew.

Even then, she hadn't quite figured out what exactly was going on between Matthew and Angela.

Matthew's thoughts were deeply hidden. She believed that not just her, but others as well, couldn't guess his intentions.

It was clear that Angela cared deeply for Matthew. Inclusive of the behavior of Timothy and his friends that night, all signs indicated a profound relationship between the two.

"Is something wrong?" Matthew turned his head to look at her.

A pair of unfathomably deep and cold eyes looked over.

Those eyes could easily instill fear in one's heart.

Aurelia immediately shook her head in response.

Matthew raised his hand to massage his temple. He thought he had startled her because he inadvertently revealed his work demeanor. "You can ask me anything directly. We are husband and wife now," he said.

Well, we're only married on paper. Aurelia corrected him in her thought and replied, "There isn't much going on at the moment. If I have things to ask you in the future, I'll do so."

"All right."

Matthew once again immersed himself in his work.

Aurelia opened WhatsApp and saw Angela's text.

Angela asked: Are you available this Saturday, Ms. Shaw? There are some matters I'd like to discuss with you in person.

Saturday? Isn't that tomorrow? I don't have much time tomorrow. Aurelia planned to visit Phyllis the next day. After that, she intended to see Charlie at his workplace.

Therefore, Aurelia replied: I'm sorry, but I'm busy tomorrow. I'll be free the day after tomorrow.

A few minutes later, Angela responded: All right. Let's meet at Sky Peak Restaurant at noon the day after tomorrow.

Aurelia: Sure. See you the day after tomorrow.

After navigating through the congested roads, the journey to the Quigley residence was smooth and unimpeded.

The moment the two of them stepped out of the car, they held each other's hand and interlocked their fingers.

Aurella's fingers felt somewhat numb. That kind of interlocking of fingers was too intimate for her.

Upon seeing the two of them clasping hands, Evelyn couldn't help but smile. "Old Mrs. Quigley is waiting inside. Mr. Quigley, Mrs. Quigley, the more I look at you two, the more I think you two are meant for each other!"

When they stepped out of the car just now, it was as if they were walking out from a painting. Evelyn even thought the couple was a match made in heaven.

The effect could not have been achieved had anyone else been in their place.

The smile on Aurelia's face momentarily stiffened when she heard those words. Matthew responded aptly to Evelyn, "When has Grandma ever been wrong in her judgment?" "Indeed! Indeed." Evelyn nodded repeatedly. The person who can catch Old Mrs. Quigley's eye to become her granddaughter-in-law is the most suitable match for Mr. Quigley. The last time they visited, their relationship wasn't as intimate as it is now. It didn't take them long to start holding hands whenever they got out of the car. It's as if they couldn't bear to be apart for even a moment.

Upon witnessing this scene, Mabel couldn't help but break into laughter. "Oh my, come here, both of you. Take a look at this table full of dishes. I personally made a few of them," she said. / knew Auri was that rascal's type! At the very beginning, Matthew was stubborn, but look at him now! His gaze is glued on Auri!

"Did you cook, Grandma?" Aurelia immediately asked.

Given Mabel's health condition, she could only rest and avoid strenuous activities. It was suitable for her to occasionally go out for a walk and interact with nature. Being in touch with nature would be beneficial for her.

Upon seeing Aurelia's concern, Mabel immediately reassured her with a smile, "Indeed, I'm feeling quite well today, and I was eager to do something. Don't worry, my health has improved significantly these past few days. Now, seeing both of you come together to celebrate my birthday makes me even happier."

"This is our birthday gift to you, Grandma." Matthew put down the jewelry he was holding and added, "Auri was the one who chose it."

At first, Mabel wasn't too interested. Whenever Matthew chose something, he simply bought the most expensive item without giving much thought to selecting a particular style or considering what a woman might like.

Upon hearing that it was chosen by Aurelia, she immediately took it, holding the necklace excitedly.

"It's so beautiful! It's the most stunning piece of jewelry I've received in years. Quick! Help me put it on."

"I'm glad you like it, Grandma," Aurelia said, helping Mabel put on the necklace.

Mabel was admiring herself in the mirror excitedly. "It's beautiful. Auri has such good taste! It looks good on its own, but it's even better when I wear it."

"I also bought a set of clothes for you, Grandma. After Evelyn has cleaned them, you can see if they fit," Aurella added.

Mabel felt a warmth in her heart. "Very well, Auri is indeed thoughtful. I've been sick recently and haven't had much time to go shopping. I'm indeed tired of wearing the same clothes at home."

"Once you feel better in a couple of days, Grandma, I'll accompany you to go shopping," Aurelia immediately coaxed.

"All right! I love it when you keep me company. The food's getting cold, and you must be hungry, right? Let's eat first," Mabel said, chuckling as she sat down first.

Mabel didn't particularly enjoy eating cakes, they never prepared cake for her birthday.

Moreover, she didn't enjoy large crowds, preferring to spend her birthday only with those closest to her.

It was tranquil, yet there was also the warmth of celebrated birthdays.

After the meal, Mabel couldn't wait to try on the clothes that Aurelia had bought for her.

"Matthew, look quickly. The clothes that Auri bought for me are so beautiful. Wearing them, I look both elegant and at least a decade younger!"

A glint of recognition flashed in Matthew's eyes as if he had been transported back to over a decade ago. That's how Grandma looked like when I was little.

A warm affection flickered in his eyes. After nodding, he turned to Aurelia and said, "Indeed, you have a good eye."

Aurelia blushed slightly from their compliments. She noticed Matthew staring at her and suddenly didn't know what to say. She turned to Mabel and said, "The designer of this brand did a good job."

"You made a good choice," said Matthew.

Over the past few years, he had rarely seen Mabel that happy.

It seemed that ever since he met Aurelia, Mabel appeared to have let go of some burdens in her heart. Mabel became more carefree and relaxed, and her smile was genuine.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Involuntarily, his thoughts wandered again. The more time he spent with Aurelia, the more he realized what a good girl she was.

Regrettably, he could not give her love.

Right then, Matthew thought that if Aurelia didn't mind not being loved, they could actually

spend the rest of their lives together.

Soon after, Aurella accompanied Mabel to watch a variety show.

The romance reality show was thoroughly enjoyable for the two f them.

By then, Evelyn had prepared fruits and snacks.

In reality, it was Aurelia who ate most of the food. Mabel could only manage a bit of pasta before she couldn't eat anything else. At that moment, she was just watching variety shows to help digest her meal.

It was unusual for Matthew not to go to the study upstairs. Instead, he sat on a nearby couch, watching Mabel and Aurelia sitting together, guessing who had fallen for whom, and what had happened to whom.

Whenever Mabel had Aurelia with her, she was completely at ease. Her smile, genuine and heartfelt, was childlike. Her laughter filled the entire house.

Mabel was far more carefree and adorable when she was with Aurelia than when she was alone.

The man squinted his eyes, exuding an aura of restrained aloofness.

Unintentionally, Aurelia met the man's gaze.
