179 Ch. 179 The Invitation

Even though Anxia tried to get out of Master Yu’s clutches―Master Yu would never stop hunting her down as long as she was alive in this world since that wicked, ruthless older man wanted the contents of the chip. Thinking about this and being unable to find the right answer made Anxia break out in a cold sweat and her heart trembled violently.

Reflexively, her eyes lifted, looking for her husband as if her soul wanted peace. And as soon as she saw the gentle smile of her husband, then her heart started beating normally again.

Not only her husband’s smile but a tiny hand holding her hand―Lori held her as if the child could sense her anxiety― made Anxia, ??who previously felt alone at the bottom of the dark abyss, suddenly have a pair of wings and soar to the sky.

“Dad, I have confirmed for the time being that person will not be able to come to England. I have asked for a ban for that man and his underling―they would never step foot in this place again.”

Anxia widened her eyes in disbelief upon hearing her husband’s explanation. When did Richard ask for a ban? After all, where did he have the connections to get the British government to ban tourists?

“Not only in England―all countries in the Europe continent would not welcome all of them. As long as Anxia and Richard are in Europe, they will be safe,” added Raymond, explaining what they had been doing for the last two days.

Stanley nodded his head, satisfied with the explanation of his two sons.

In fact, he was planning to have European countries’ governments ban Anxia’s enemies if his two children didn’t think of it this way. But fortunately, her sons were smart enough to think of appropriate and efficient solutions to protect Anxia, and they did not need to intervene or fight their enemies directly.

“Therefore, we’d better forget about this and enjoy our vacation,” Richard suggested in a cheerful tone as he raised and lowered his eyebrows playfully at Anxia, making the girl giggle at the sight.

.....

“But, what about the wound? She is still recovering.”

“Ah, that’s right. Anxia still needs a lot of rest.” Meisya also agreed to her youngest daughter’s suggestion, which made Anxia immediately feel weak.

Once again, she glanced at Richard, hoping he could help her to clarify that she was all right. But her annoying husband turned his gaze towards his twin and struck another convo.

The man pretended not to see her pleading look!! Anxia frowned at her husband’s attitude.

“Anxia, ??are you starting to feel bored in the house all the time?” luckily, her mother-in-law was aware of her disapproving expression and questioned her with great concern.

“Yes, I am. Moreover, this is the first time I’ve left my room after Richard locked me for two days.”

“I didn’t lock you up, honey. I don’t want your wound exposed to the outside wind.”

Anxia rolled her eyes lazily at her husband’s nonsensical answer.

How could her wound be exposed to the wind when her upper body was covered with bandages and cloth?

The bandages should have been allowed to be removed, but Richard insisted on keeping the wound closed so that the gunshot wound would not come in contact with water or anything that could infect the wound.

“How about we attend Leonard’s wedding anniversary? He sent me an invitation to come to his mansion in Birmingham.”

Hearing Meisya’s words, Stanley and Richard’s bodies stiffened, and no one noticed the change in their expressions. Richard glanced at his father, hoping Stanley would persuade his mother not to force his three children to come to the event. It didn’t matter if Raymond and Harmonie wanted to come, but Richard would never want to come. He also believed that his wife would feel uncomfortable knowing who Leonard was.

Stanley understood his son’s heart and then tried to persuade his wife not to come.

“You know we can’t refuse him. I haven’t seen him in a long time. Ah, by the way, he wants to meet your wives and children.”

Richard broke out in a cold sweat hearing his mother’s words.

“So you guys should come too.”

Unlike Richard, who felt like he was standing in the middle of a battlefield, Raymond accepted his mother’s request with ease.

“Of course. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Uncle Leo and Andrew.” Raymond said slightly enthusiastically, making Michele curious about Uncle Leo or Andrew. When they had their wedding in Holland, there were no guests named Leo or Andrew, so Michele was inquisitive.

“Ah, right. My brother didn’t come to your wedding, so it looks like this will be your first meeting.” Meisya said softly when she looked at Michele and Anxia, ??without realizing that her eldest son, sitting next to her, was massaging his temple.

Anxia saw her husband’s resigned behavior and wondered if he was feeling dizzy. Or did her husband not like his mother’s sibling’s family?

Why did that man look so unusual?

After all, why did the names Leo and Andrew ring a bell in her mind? It seemed like she had heard their names somewhere, but Anxia couldn’t even remember where she had heard those two names.

“How about you, Moni? Would you like to come with us?” asked Meisya when she saw that her youngest daughter was not too excited to see Uncle Leo.

It wasn’t that she didn’t like her uncle; it was Leo’s son that made her reluctant to come. Not to mention Leo’s prideful daughter... made Moni more unwilling to attend the party.

But, since it was Uncle Leo’s wedding anniversary, Harmonie said yes to paying respects to one of her favorite uncles.

On the other hand, Richard..

“Richard? How about you?”

“Can I pass? I’m not in the mood to attend a crowded event. After all, Xia Xia still needs time to recover.”

historical

“What are you talking about? The event is still next week. Do you wish that Anxia would still be sick until next week?”

Richard sighed resignedly at Harmonie’s comment, which didn’t help him.

“Do you still not want to meet Quinn?”

Clink!

All eyes were on Anxia, who accidentally dropped her tea cup onto the table, spilling its contents.
