NovelOnlineChapter 618 In the study.
Reid and Everett sat opposite each other, but one was sluggish and the other was tense.
However, both of them just looked at each other and did not speak.
Everett had nothing to say.
He seemed as if he was looking at a random person.
If someone saw the look in his eyes, they wouldn't think that the person sitting opposite him was his father, but a stranger he had just met.
But Reid was different.
He had a lot to say to Everett.
He wanted to ask him how he was doing these days and what he thought about marriage and relationships, but he hadn't asked him for so many years and didn't care about him. What right did he have to ask these questions now? What right did he have to manage his affairs? At this moment, Reid suddenly felt powerless.
The study was very quiet.
They were like two strangers and were both silent.
The clock was ticking.
Suddenly, Everett got up and left the study.

When Reid saw Everett leaving, he stood up and cried out in a panic, "Everett!" Everett stopped.
Reid knew that if he didn't say it, he might not have a chance to say it.
So he stopped hesitating and blurted out. "I heard what Melody just said. You... You really like Olivia?" The atmosphere froze again.
The clock seemed to have stopped.
Everything was eerily quiet.
Reid's heart was pounding and he could hear his heart beat.
He didn't think this through, so he just asked what he most wanted to know.
After he cto his senses, he realized what he had said.
Reid regretted it. He should not have asked this.
This would only make Everett in more conflicts with him.
He couldn't take that back.
Mo, DEEL" "Yes." Reid was stunned.
He looked at Everett and was dumbfounded.
What did Everett say? He said...
Everett who was standing straight turned around and looked at Reid with his black, shining eyes. "I like her." "Your daughter-in-law can only be her." The door opened and closed.
Reid stood there, motionless as if he had lost his soul.
Soon, it was noon.
Everyone arrived in the morning, but the morning was short. They chatted, walked, took a look, and it was lunchtalready.
The whole family sat happily together for lunch.
The atmosphere was good.
However, looking closely, one would find that this was just a facade.
Everyone could tell something was wrong among Reid, Leona, and Melody.
But no one said anything, as if nothing had happened, as if everything was the sas before.

But Leona wasn't in the mood to play mahjong.
After Reid cdownstairs, she asked him if he had spoken to Everett. Reid said yes, and then she asked what they had talked about, but Reid didn't tell her. He just said he would tell her after going home.
They wouldn't be back until tomorrow. She was so anxious and wanted to know now.
But Reid refused to tell her, but looking at Reid's face, she had a bad feeling.

"Second sister-in-law, it's the new year. Don't be a wet blanket." How could Cristina not see Leona's uneasiness? Normally, she would have let her go, but today was the new year, and she couldn't let her be like this.
Emma knew what Cristina was thinking and echoed by saying, "We haven't played mahjong for a long time.
Today, we can finally have a good time." Emma was the eldest. It would be impolite for Leona to refuse an elder.
Soon the four of them began to play mahjong.
But before that, Belle asked Brayden to take Olivia for a walk nearby.
Young people went to have fun themselves.
Brayden agreed.
The four women were playing mahjong, and men went to play chess.
