Chapter 669
The next morning, Alessandra took a new suit with her and went looking for
Ryder.
“Why are you so early, Mom?” Ryder put on an amiable smile. He was used to
calling Alessandra ‘Mom‘ now.
“What are you wearing, Ryder? We’re going to attend a wedding!” Alessandra
-was displeased with his outfit.
Ryder put on a helpless smile. “Mom, these are the most formal clothes I
have. Moreover, I’m not the groom. I’m just a guest!”
“You’re not going to the wedding like this. Put this on.” Alessandra passed him
the suit, hoping for him to look his best at the wedding.
When Ryder saw the suit, he was astounded. “Isn’t this a suit from Yaeger,
Mom? It must be expensive. It’ll be a waste if I put this on.”
“Stop spouting nonsense and get changed now. I’m going to introduce you to
a potential partner, so you have to look your best.”
“Alright, then…” Ryder finally agreed to it, but he let out a sigh in secret, worried
that he’d become a laughingstock if he couldn’t pull it off. As expected, after
he left the room in the new suit, Roselynn, who had been eating Oreo cookies
with her legs crossed in the living–room, leaped to her feet.
After she studied Ryder, she covered her mouth and giggled. “Haha! Is this
the latest monochromatic fashion, Ryder? You look exactly like Oreos!”
Upon hearing the woman’s mockery, Ryder flushed and had the urge to take
off the white suit.
“Stop saying nonsense, Roselynn!” Alessandra went over and landed a slap
on her daughter’s bottom. Then, she glowered at her and said, “Ryder looks
good in this suit!”
“Well, I didn’t say he looked ugly,” Roselynn replied insincerely while covering
her bottom with both hands. In her opinion, a white suit didn’t suit Ryder at all.
Only a man like Emmanuel, who was tall and handsome, could pull it off.
Not only did Ryder have an uneven skin tone, but he also wasn’t handsome.
He indeed looked like a piece of Oreo cookie in a white suit.
“Since you have time today, you’ll attend the wedding with us and put in a
good word for Ryder.” Alessandra landed another slap on her daughter’s
bottom and told her to get changed…
Fine, I’ll go. Roselynn didn’t have the intention of going back to the Oatley
residence, and she didn’t have anything to do in her own home either. As
such, she happily agreed to attend the wedding, changing into a long pink
dress and putting on a fluffy jacket. When she left the room, Tommy
exclaimed, “Wow, Aunt Roselynn! You look gorgeous!”
“Despite your young age, you have a fine taste for fashion, Tommy! I’m sure
you’ll have a bright future!” Roselynn was pleased with the young kid’s
compliment. However, when she left the house with her mother, the smile
disappeared from her face.
“Happy New Year, Roselynn. This is for you!” Jaxton had been standing outside
with some roses since the morning just to wait for the woman to step out of
the house.
Instead of taking the flowers, Roselynn asked with disdain, “Why are you
here?”
Jaxton was embarrassed and slightly displeased, but he wouldn’t dare to
flare up.
Upon seeing that, Alessandra quickly eased the tension between them. “I
called Jaxton to come over, Roselynn. Even though there are some conflicts
between you two, you shouldn’t ignore him for such a long time. Since Jaxton
has apologized to you, you should probably forgive him.”
“I’m sorry, Roselynn!” Jaxton apologized to her again despite feeling vexed.
He was the heir to a well–to–do family, but he was forced to fawn over his
wife. This couldn’t be helped, for Emmanuel married the young lady of the
Quillen family.
To strike up a relationship with the Quillens, Jaxton had no choice but to hold
back–his–fury and make it up with his wife.
In actuality, Roselynn didn’t want to forgive Jaxton, for she no longer loved the
man. However, Alessandra didn’t allow her to get a divorce.
