Olivia Taylor noticed her mother gaze on Anna and remembered that she didn’t formally introduce Anna to her mother.
"Mom, this is Anna," Olivia said.
Her mother looked at Anna and smiled, "She is really beautiful, no wonder Daniel likes her so much."
Anna blushed and said, "Hello Aunt."
"Aunt? You're Daniel’s wife, call me mom."
"…" Anna didn’t know what to say, so she just smiled.
Daniel noticed her nervous facial expressions, softly touched her hand and said, "Mom and dad."
By the warm touch of his hand, Anna felt very relieved looked at him and said, "Mom, dad."
"That’s a good girl!" Daniel’s father and mother smiled.
They warmly welcomed their daughter-in-law to Taylor’s family.
At the dinner table, the family was chatting happily. Daniel’s mother asked Anna Stark. "Anna, how old are you?"
Anna Stark wanted to say eighteen, but she was afraid that they might feel a shock, so she said, "I will be twenty in a few months."
"You are much younger." Daniel’s mother smiled. She was eight or nine years younger than her son.
"Studying?"
"Yes, I will go to university this year."
"Which university you have applied for?"
"Jingzhou University."
Jingzhou University! Although it wasn’t as good as the top 1 and 2 universities, it was among the good universities of the country. It seemed that the little girl was not only beautiful but also very intelligent. Daniel’s mother was really satisfied with her daughter in law.
Olivia Taylor heard their conversation and said, "What a coincidence. My son John also got admission in Jingzhou University. Now, you two can take care of each other."
Anna Stark was stunned. She still remembered that it was her and John’s mutual decision to get admission in Jingzhou University. But now things have been changed!
"Tell us about your high school?" Olivia asked.
Anna regained her consciousness when she heard another question. She smiled and replied, "I went to No.1 middle school."
"Ah! You and John were school mates! Do you know my son John Peter?"
Anna Stark answered a series of questions. She was nervous and sweating. She and John Peter didn’t only knew each other but also had been together. But how didn't she know how to tell these things to her new family? She could only lie, she said, "I don't know him. I don't pay much attention to strangers."
"Yes, Our Anna is a brilliant child. It's normal to not pay attention to these things." Olivia Taylor nodded and added, "I heard that John had made a girlfriend at school. Alas, today’s children are really too precocious…"
Anna Stark smiled awkwardly, didn’t say anything.
Daniel Taylor raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why are you not eating?"
The purpose behind the question was to say that eat more and talk less. He didn't want to see his wife in trouble!
Olivia Taylor looked at his brother and laughed, "Alas, my younger brother has grown up. Now he knows how to protect his wife from elder sister’s question."
Anna Stark's face turned red. After eating, Anna Stark followed Daniel Taylor and went upstairs. As the door closed, she took out three red envelopes from her pocket and handed them to Daniel Taylor.
"Sir, your sister, and parents gave me these red packets. There's a lot of money in them. I cannot accept it."
Daniel Taylor quietly looked at her and didn't take the envelopes. "These are yours. They gave it to you."
"Isn't that wrong to accept this much money?"
"Obviously not." Daniel Taylor said, "Now you are my wife, you deserve these things."
If Anna Stark didn't accept his family’s gift, it would mean that she didn't take him as her husband. Anna Stark had to accept these red envelopes.
When she put those red packets into the bag, Daniel Taylor asked coldly, "Do you know John Peter?"
