Chapter 530: Conditions
A FEW HOURS AGO
As Autumn stepped into the quaint yard of the house, she felt her heart race. Nervously, she smoothed her dress, making sure it wasn’t creased before taking another step forward. The yard reminded her of the many childhood memories with Dave but this time it was something different.
She walked inside with a nervous fluttering and raised a trembling hand to knock. Thankfully, Aunty Pearl did not make her wait and quickly opened the door," Welcome Autumn. Everyone’s around the pool outside."
Autumn paused. "Everyone?"
"Pierce didn’t tell you? He is so absent minded. All his aunts and cousins are here for the weekend."
Autumn nodded her head,"He didn’t tell me. Is it... is it special ocassion?"
The older woman gave her a mysterious smile and said," Yes, it is. And you’ll know it soon enough. Come on. Lets go and see everyone first."
As they reached the deck, Autumn felt even more out of place. Everyone was dressed for a pool party and here she was dressed in a conservative sundress. And she could feel every curious eye turn to her as she entered behind. Thankfully, she didn’t have much time to be embarrassed as Pierce spotted her quickly and raced to her," There she is! The most beautiful girl in the world."
Autumn smiled as Pierce quickly pulled her into his arms and introduced everyone," Autumn, these are my coursins! You won’t remember them even if I introduce them since they are too many... Just count them with numbers."
