"Alright." Aunt Cagwin, brushing aside the awkwardness caused by Mrs. Fisher earlier, bead with a joyful smile, saying, "I’ll go to the market later and buy a fish to make your favorite boiled fish."
"Okay." Nathalie Quinlan responded.
Just then, a distinguished lady not far away hesitated for a mont, then walked towards them with an uneasy smile. Her expression showed slight embarrassnt as she greeted the girl, "Nathalie, it’s been a while. You’ve grown a bit taller and slimr, and you’re even more beautiful than before."
Her small talk was quite dry. Mrs. Fisher herself felt embarrassed, fidgeted uneasily, and wished she could find a hole to hide in.
But she had no other choice.
Yesterday, Richardo Fisher told her that Linda White’s cousin had sohow offended Nathalie again.
She didn’t sleep well all night.
Over the past year, the Fisher Family had been on a downward spiral, especially after the incident with that female star Richardo kept outside. Everyone saw the Yancey Family’s attitude towards them.
The already difficult tis for the Fisher Family were becoming even more challenging.
Without the Yancey Family’s support, even in a small city like McKinney, the Fisher Family was struggling to move forward.
She worried that Felice Owen’s matter would make the Fisher Family’s already difficult path even harder, and was even more concerned that Amadeus Yancey would take out his anger on them because of it... So, after a sleepless night, she ca up with this plan.
She wanted to nd relations with Nathalie and Amadeus Yancey by forming a good relationship with Aunt Cagwin.
Though this thod felt a bit thick-skinned, it was still better than doing nothing.
With this thought, Mrs. Fisher cald her embarrassing emotions a bit, forced a smile, and continued, "It’s like this, I heard from Zayn Fisher that Uncle Cagwin had surgery so ti ago, and I’ve always wanted to visit but never found the ti. Today I finally made so ti, so I bought so gifts for Uncle Cagwin, but Aunt Cagwin refused to accept them."
Zayn Fisher often visited the Quinlan Family before.
Aunt Cagwin also worked for the Quinlan Family.
They were considered acquaintances.
But Aunt Cagwin only knew Zayn Fisher and didn’t have much interaction with him, let alone with Mrs. Fisher.
Mrs. Fisher didn’t even care for Ghania Quinlan back then, let alone other mbers of the Quinlan Family.
She now acted as if they were all very familiar, which made Aunt Cagwin feel uncomfortable all over. She clutched her hands and explained softly to Nathalie Quinlan, "Those gifts are too expensive, I... I can’t accept them."
The girl wore a duckbill cap today with a light-colored sweater, still a simple dress, but exuded an undeniable aura.
Zayn Fisher stood not far away, lacking Mrs. Fisher’s thick skin, too embarrassed to co over.
However, he kept looking in the girl’s direction.
But the girl did not glance at him at all. After hearing the two speak, she patted Aunt Cagwin’s rough hand gently and whispered, "It’s alright, I’ll handle it."
"Nathalie, you..." Aunt Cagwin looked up again. Despite the awkward situation, she had no intention of letting Nathalie co forward for her.
She was about to muster the courage to directly refuse Mrs. Fisher.
The girl had already stepped forward, subtly shielding her, and calmly said to the lady, "Are these the gifts?"
Mrs. Fisher, who had been anxious and worried that Nathalie wouldn’t show her respect, imdiately smiled when she heard her question, "Ah, yes. I bought so health supplents for Uncle Cagwin. They are all nourishing products. I specifically consulted with a doctor, who said they are most suitable for the patient."
