Ranaway From Wedding, Fell into Tycoon's Love Trap-Chapter 379: Asking Around
Harriet White couldn’t find Lily Turner on the first floor and thought Lily must have gone back to her room upstairs, which wouldn’t be appropriate to follow.
Just as she was about to turn back to the living room in disappointment, she suddenly saw Aunt Li coming out of a room, and instinctively stopped in her tracks.
Aunt Li, who was about to go to the bathroom, also saw Harriet and was momentarily stunned before striding over to her.
"Mrs. Taylor! Is something the matter?"
Aiden Taylor and Harriet White visit Callix Linton not only on holidays; whenever they have free time, the couple comes over to chat with Callix.
Their appearance tonight didn’t make Aunt Li think otherwise; she assumed they were just dropping by as usual, not considering the emotional entanglements between Grayson Holmes.
Harriet raised her hand to point towards the kitchen, saying, "I want to pour myself a glass of water."
She had already devised this excuse when Aunt Li walked over, so she responded smoothly due to her prior planning.
"I’ll get it for you right away, just a moment."
Naively accepting it, Aunt Li turned and headed for the kitchen.
Harriet didn’t actually want water, she was after information from Aunt Li, so she immediately followed, "Sister! I’ll get it myself."
As she spoke, she had already caught up with Aunt Li walking ahead.
"Wait in the living room, I’ll bring it over later," Aunt Li, unaware of Harriet’s ulterior motive, didn’t question her words in the slightest.
Harriet’s objective was far from achieved, so there was no way she’d listen to Aunt Li and return to the living room to wait. She walked into the kitchen shoulder to shoulder with Aunt Li, "Sister! No need to be polite with me, I’m no stranger."
Hearing this, Aunt Li no longer urged her to go back and wait, allowing her to follow into the kitchen.
"Easton and his wife are living here, it must be lively at home now?" Once in the kitchen, Harriet casually asked while Aunt Li was pouring the water.
Aunt Li nodded, "Yes! The house is much livelier than before, with Easton and Lily living here, Mr. Linton is so happy, smiling all the time."
As she spoke, Aunt Li’s face also showed a genuine happy smile.
Ever since Easton Holmes was left here by Amelia Linton, Aunt Li began to take care of him. At that time, Callix Linton was busy with military affairs, so young Easton spent a lot more time with Aunt Li.
Whether going to school or coming home, it was Aunt Li who took him, and at home, it was also Aunt Li who looked after him, a state that continued until he entered middle school.
She watched him grow up, and although their relationship was officially one of servant and young master, their bond was as close as mother and son.
When he was in kindergarten, he called her mom several times. In her heart, she considered him her own son, but due to her status, she dared not answer him casually.
But ever since then, her love for him only grew.
She hoped he would grow up healthily, hoped he would be happy and content.
Seeing him so happy and fulfilled now, she was genuinely happy for him.
"You can tell, the old leader is really happy now." Harriet could see not only Callix Linton’s happiness, but also Easton and Aunt Li’s happiness, the whole family looked so joyful, "That girl’s a big star, is she easy to get along with?"
She should be easy to get along with, as just entering the house, their interaction seemed harmonious.
Harriet actually already had her answer, but she wanted to confirm it so she could explain it clearly to her daughter, Evelyn Taylor, when she got back.
