Chapter 110: Childhood stories
Diana showed her room to Hazel while carrying Angel.
Hazel marveled, ’’I have come to this boy’s mansion before but except for his room, the rest of the place resembled a ghost house.’’
Diana laughed, ’’It has been renovated after I moved in,’’ The last time she met Hazel near the police station, the woman had mentioned about Ryle’s place but she had no idea who Ryle was and what his place had got to do with her but now she could understand.
Hazel grew quiet when she heard that. Ryle renovated his house after Little Ana moved in?
Her eyes scanned the girl from head to toe and danger flags flashed in her head. Diana was beautiful and smart. It was totally normal for men to fall for her without her needing to lift a finger. The age difference between her and Ryle should not be much either.
She treated Ryle like her son but what about her foolish biological son? That dumb kid was still bordering on friendship. In case Diana was stolen by Ryle, it would be too late for him to cry over spilled milk.
As frustrated as she was but as Maxim’s biological mother, she should make at least one or two efforts for him lest the cabbage she had keeping an eye on for so long got stolen, ’’Men these days...’’ Hazel clicked her tongue.
Diana, who was about to show the exquisite shoe collection gifted to her by Maxim, paused and turned to look at the lady, ’’What happened, Auntie?"
’’Your Auntie has seen this world longer than you,’’ she held her hand and pulled her towards the bed, ’’Let me tell you about a thing or two so that you don’t get duped in the future.’’
It was Angel’s nap time and the girl had dozed off when Diana was showing her room to Hazel. Diana placed her on the bed and adjusted two pillows beside her before she glanced at Hazel worriedly.
’’Doing things like renovating the house and all that... As a girl, you should never fall for such materialistic things, alright? That boy is just so used to women falling at his feet and all he needs to do is pull one or two such tricks,’’ Hazel said without guilt. To have Diana as her daughter-in-law, she would need to unabashedly smash Ryle’s ship before collecting a few brownie points for her son’s ship, ’’You should give in to the kind of men who don’t make an effort at all but you could feel their care when they take you to restaurants,’’ As dumb as her son could be, he has been following the rule of ’the way to a woman’s heart is through her stomach’ since they were young so the strong point was coming in handy today.
