Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 265

Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together. All of them welcomed Annalise with smiles. Annalise’s glass was filled with water. Julian had poured it for her. When Lee saw what Julian had done, he immediately got it. He could see a hint of himself in Julian. Lee was filled with emotions. Though he did not have his happily-ever-after, he hoped that Julian and Annalise would be happy together. Nancy also clinked glasses with Annalise. She was also full of smiles and said in the tone of an elder sister, “Anna, I’m your eldest cousin. We are family now. Welcome home. I’m the older one of us two, so I should take care of you. If you need any help in the future, you can tell me.”

“Thank you!” Annalise smiled at Nancy. If not for Alan’s reminder, Annalise really wouldn’t have been able to tell that Nancy was a bad person. However, Annalise was also good at putting on a false front. After all, she grew up with five masters who were all as sly as fox. Although Annalise was only 20 years old and had never harmed anyone, it didn’t mean that she wasn’t smart. “Sit, sit,” Nancy said immediately when she saw Annalise’s guileless expression.

It was good that Annalise was naive and gullible. Nancy’s next plan to sow discord would definitely succeed. Everyone didn’t eat much and just chatted. After chatting for less than an hour, Lee said, “It’s getting late. Everyone, go to sleep. I feel quite weak and I’m going to go to bed. Anna, come and take my pulse later.” “Alright, alright, alright. Go and rest,” Old Mr. Xander immediately said. Lee and Annalise returned to Lee’s home.

When they arrived at Lee’s home, Lee told Annalise and Julian to go to bed early and to have a good rest. They didn’t have to wake up early tomorrow morning and could sleep for as long as they wanted. Annalise was about to take Lee’s pulse when Lee smiled. He said, “You don’t need to take my pulse. I’m in good health. Just the thought of finding my daughter makes me extremely happy. I can eat and sleep well. I have also been taking the medicine you gave me. I’m almost completely recovered now. Anna, go to bed. You’re pregnant. Go to bed early.

Annalise nodded and said gratefully, “Thank you… Dad.” Lee smiled at Annalise dotingly. “Good night!” Even though Annalise was not his daughter, Lee wanted to treat her as his biological daughter. The more he looked at her, the more he liked her. After Julian and Annalise returned to their room, Julian told Annalise to lie down and he went to fill the bathtub for her. The two of them washed up and went to bed. Julian had his hand placed under Annalise’s neck. Annalise lay sideways in Julian’s arms. She couldn’t help but move her hand around his waist. Júlian reached out and grabbed Annalise’s hand. “Stop fooling around. I won’t be able to stop.”

His eyes were filled with helplessness. When Annalise saw Julian’s gaze, she felt like laughing. If she didn’t tease him now, when would she? Now that she was pregnant, it was as if she was hiding a powerful weapon. He did not dare to touch her at all. Annalise smiled and reached out to touch Julian. Julian was about to cry. He grabbed Annalise’s hand. “Wife, stop fooling around.” His voice was low and hoarse. God knew how uncomfortable he was from holding back on his urges. He would have felt uncomfortable even if Annalise had not tried to tease him.

“Good night, darling.” Annalise could tell that she could not tease him anymore. She immediately snuggled into his arms and closed her eyes. Julian felt extremely helpless. He stroked Annalise’s head dotingly and kissed her forehead. He said in a low and hoarse voice, “Good night, Anna.” It was a killer move for her to call him “darling” at a time like this! He would have to get up and take a cold shower later when Annalise has fallen asleep. At night. Julian was not the only one who had insomnia. Lee could not fall asleep either. Lee was preparing character cards on his computer. He wrote a short story for every member of the Xander family. There was a photo of each person, their date of birth, personality, and so on. He wrote everything that he could think of on the cards.

For example, Samuel Xander, 73 years old, amiable, healthy, open-minded, easy to get along with… Uncle Yechiel Xander, 50 years old. His ex-wife, Lily Sox, was the daughter of the Sox family. They got married 26 years ago and had Nancy 25 years ago. They divorced when Nancy was 5 years old Nancy has a younger sister, Jasmine Xander. Jasmine was the wife of Timothy Parks. After Yechiel and Lily

divorced, he married the daughter of the Tarte family, Jolene Tarte, the following year. Three years after his divorce, Yechiel and Jolene had a daughter, Kristen. Lee did his best to write about everyone in detail.

He specifically wrote down who was easy to get along with and who was not. Actually, Lee had been bedridden for 20 years and did not know much about the members of the Xander family. It was all based on his intuition. When he wrote about Nancy, he even specially wrote- Nancy is scheming. Don’t get too close to her. Lee stayed up until around four to write all of that down. Not only did he not feel tired, but he also felt a sense of accomplishment. Meanwhile, Julian still could not sleep. Annalise had fallen asleep. But Julian still felt very warm.

He had no choice but to get up and take a cold shower to cool himself down. After washing up, he immediately felt much more comfortable. He received a message from Trevor after he got into bed. [Julian, I’ve checked. That girl’s name is Layla Cory. She’s probably the little girl who saved you back then. But I can’t find the Surveillance footage from back then, so I’m not 100% sure. However, her resume, acupuncture habits, age, and all the information matches that of the little girl from back then. She also happened to be from Yogan City. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

I got someone to get information from her. She happened to be near Yogan train station when you had your asthma attack.] [Got it] Julian replied. Trevor asked anxiously. [Julian, why don’t we pretend that nothing happened? At most, I can just watch her in the dark. If she needs help, I’ll help her.] Trevor had a nagging feeling that even if Julian did not have any other ideas other than acknowledging Layla as his savior, Layla might have other thoughts about it.

Which nineteen-year-old girl didn’t yearn for love? Who wouldn’t dream of finding a handsome man with an extraordinary temperament and a sharp mind? When Julian saw Trevor’s message, he smiled slightly. [Yes, help her if she needs it. Don’t bother her if she doesn’t need any help.] Julian could just take it that he had been disillusioned. Julian had always wanted to look for his savior before He had

never been in a relationship before he met Annalise. He had hoped to find his savior and marry her. However, now that he had found Layla, he did not have a good impression of her.

He didn’t know if it was because he already had Annalise, so no other woman could catch his eye, or if it was for some other reason. In short, he was very disillusioned. However, Layla was still his savior. If she encountered any difficulties in the future, he was willing to help her. When Trevor heard Julian’s reply, he heaved a sigh of relief and replied instantly. [Okay.] Trevor had a very good impression of Annalise. He felt that Annalise was perfect for Julian the first time he met her. Her clear gaze, graceful temperament, and gentle smile-everything about her made. one feel at ease.
