Chapter 36 You Are My Sister-In-Law
She looked at the old lady and then looked at the silver bracelet in her hand. She shook her head and said, “Grandma, I can’t accept it.”
Seeing that she refused, the old lady was not in a hurry. She just asked softly, “Do you know whose bracelet this is?”
Adele could not figure it out, so she shook her head.
Could it be that this was not her bracelet?
“This was left behind by Damon’s mother when she was alive. She specifically asked me to give it to Damon’s wife. This is the silver bracelet passed down from her ancestors. I gave it to you to express our acknowledgment for you.”
Hearing her suddenly mention Damon’s mother, Adele became nervous.
Her aunt knew that Damon’s mother was a taboo topic. Now that she saw this bracelet, she did not know whether to accept it or not.
Moreover, this was not just a simple bracelet, so she did not dare to accept it.
Even if the old lady acknowledged her and the Yusuf family accepted her, so what? What she wanted was Damon’s acceptance of her.
Seeing that she did not speak for a long time, the old lady asked, “Adele, are you still not going to accept it?”
Adele came back to her senses. She looked at the old lady seriously. “Grandma, I’m afraid I can’t accept this bracelet. At least, I can’t accept it now.”
“Why?” The old lady was confused.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“I just got married to Damon not long ago. Although we have been together for the past few days, our feelings toward each other have not been deep enough. I think that it will not be too late for me to accept this bracelet when we both recognize each other.”
At her words, the old lady’s eyes flashed with a strange light. In the end, she shook her head with a smile and put away the red bag. “You are frank and sincere. Well, then I will wait for this day to come.”
Although Adele did not accept the bracelet, the old lady’s love for her grew much stronger. The two chatted for a long time before slowly going downstairs.
In the canteen downstairs, the servants had got the meal ready.
“Grandma, it’s time to eat.” Damon walked up to the old lady and supported her.
The old lady nodded and turned to look at Adele. She smiled and said, “Let’s go, Adele. Let’s go eat.”
“Okay, Grandma.” Adele smiled sweetly.
The three of them sat down at the dining table. Before they could move their chopsticks, a servant walked over to the old lady and whispered, “Old Madame, he said it was too noisy, so he won’t come down. Just send the food over to him.”
When the old lady heard this, she nodded slightly and did not say anything else.
Adele, who was at the side, heard the maid’s words clearly and felt a little puzzled.
Judging by the maid’s words, could it be that there was someone else at home? But just now, while she was accompanying the old lady for a walk, she didn’t hear her mention it, nor did she see anyone else.
Just as she was puzzled, the old lady suddenly picked up a piece of fried rib for her.
Adele returned to her senses and agreed with a smile. She didn’t think too much about what had just happened.
She tasted a mouthful of ribs and her eyes suddenly lit up. The flavor of the ribs was too delicious!
“It’s too delicious, grandma!”
The old lady heard this and laughed, “The chef in here has been in the Yusuf family for more than ten years. His cooking skills are excellent. If you like it, you can come for a meal anytime.”
“Alright, I will definitely come often!” Adele nodded without hesitation.
As she spoke, she stuffed the remaining half of the ribs into her mouth. Suddenly, she felt a ray of light shooting over. When she looked up, she saw Damon staring at her with a smile in his eyes.
Adele was stunned. She even restrained her chewing movements. “You… Why are you looking at me?” she asked.
The smile on Damon’s face deepened at her question. He seemed to be deliberately suppressing it. “If you like it, eat more.”
As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks and got a slice of stir-fried vegetable. He gracefully stuffed it into his mouth.
Adele suddenly reacted. The man in front of her was born with a halo. Even if he only wore a casual shirt, even if what he did was the most ordinary action, it was inexplicably elegant.
In contrast, Adele actually felt that she was just an eyesore. She did not even dare to eat meat anymore. She picked up a piece of vegetables with her chopsticks, and her movements slowed down a lot.
The old lady on the side took in the movements of the two people. Unconsciously, her eyes were filled with a smile. She cleared her throat and supported her granddaughter-in-law. “Adele, he has always been like that. He eats like a bird. We should eat whatever way we want. Just ignore him!”
At the old lady’s words, Adele tried to hold back her laughter. She looked up at Damon, her eyes filled with a provocative smirk.
Then, she looked at the old lady and nodded, saying, “Grandma, I know!”
As she said this, she picked up a piece of braised pork and stuffed it into her mouth. She did not forget to deliberately put a piece into Damon’s bowl. “You should eat more too!”
Seeing the woman’s childish actions, Damon was so embarrassed that he wanted to laugh, but in front of the old lady, he did not say anything and picked it up to eat.
The meal was filled with laughter. Most of the time, it was Old Madame and Adele who worked together to deal with Damon, forcing him to eat half a bowl more than usual.
After the meal, Old Madame pulled Adele to the courtyard for a walk and chat. But after a while, Old Madame became a little sleepy. When the servants who followed her saw this, they immediately stepped forward and explained to Adele, “Madam, it’s nap time for Old Madame.”
Hearing this, Adele immediately understood. She helped the servant to persuade Old Madame and sent her back to the bedroom. After that, she came out of the room.
After gently closing the bedroom door, Adele breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, she thought that Old Madame would not like her, but now it seemed that she was doing quite well.
Thinking that Damon downstairs was still on the phone dealing with business, she quickened her pace, but before she reached the stairs, the door of a bedroom next to her suddenly opened.
Adele paused and subconsciously looked over. She saw a wheelchair coming out of the room. The man sitting in the wheelchair was somewhat familiar…
She narrowed her eyes and saw the man smirking at her. In an instant, she suddenly recalled that this was the man she met in the mall that day who gave her the pen!
The next second, doubts welled up in her heart. Why was he in the Yusuf family?
“Adele?”
The man started the electric wheelchair and approached Adele, calling her name clearly.
“You… How do you know my name?” Adele was surprised.
“I just heard from the maid that my sister-in-law was here, but I didn’t expect it to be you.” The man smiled beautifully.
“Sister-in-law?”
Adele was completely stunned. She blinked her eyes and slowly reacted, “You are… Damon’s younger brother?”
The man nodded slightly, the smile in his eyes not diminishing. He replied, “Yes, my name is Kobei Yusuf.”
