Win Your Heart novel Chapter 68

When Teresa was young, she knew that Grace was very interested in soup. Under the pressure of Connie, she specially went out to study it. Only in this way could she know how to deal with Grace's symptom.

In the process of learning to make soup, Teresa had suffered some hardship. But luckily she had learned how to cook. Today, she finally got a chance to show off in Xiao family.

"Teresa, I love you so much! Come on! Come here! "

As Grace gestured for Teresa to come over, she gestured to the maid next to her to fetch something from the room.

Then, the maid handed a small embroidered red box to Teresa.

"Teresa, open it." Said Grace in a gentle voice.

Teresa opened the box carefully and said happily, "aunt Grace, this is a jade bracelet. It has bright color and it must be very valuable..."

"This is what my mother left to me. Now I give it to you. I hope you will live up to my expectations."

Then, Grace grabbed Teresa's jade hand and put on the bracelet.

Teresa pretended to be embarrassed and said, "aunt Grace, it's too much. I can't take it..."

While saying, she was about to return the jade bracelet to Grace.

"Grace, don't spoil Teresa like this. Otherwise, she will get spoiled," said Connie.

Pretending to be angry, Grace retorted, "I told you to accept it. Just take it as a gift to make me happy today. Otherwise, I'll give it to another person when I regret giving it to you." Then she glanced at Sophia which had been ignored for all the time.

"Okay, aunt Grace, I will take it right away. See, I won't take it off after you put it on! Hee hee... "

After saying that, there was a flash of cunning in Teresa's eyes. The jade bracelet on her wrist was like a booty.

Grace gestured for Teresa to sit down next to her and explained.

Suddenly, Teresa seemed to be blown up. She knocked hard on her own head and said casually, "ah, look at my memory. How can I forget my mother and Victor!"

Then, Teresa rushed into the kitchen again.

At this time, she did not come out immediately. Instead, she rubbed her head, which was a little painful from her own knocking, and looked at the things that were already made on the stove, she took a long breath.

She thought to herself and said, "Teresa, you've really made a soup. Now you've taken care of Grace, and the next one is Victor!"

Then she and the maid came out with two bowls of soup and handed them to Victor and Connie.

Connie had drank thousands of experiments of her daughter, and she was almost fed up with them. However, when she took a sip of the soup, she still forced a huge smile on her face and felt extremely surprised. She praised repeatedly, "you're not here to learn the skill from a teacher!"

Teresa acted as if she was telling nothing and shook her head proudly. Then she looked at Victor expectantly, urging him to drink more soup.

In the eyes of the crowd, Victor had a bite and said lightly, "it's delicious."

"I knew it!"

Teresa was afraid of his cold response and disdain was fleeting in her eyes.

Speaking of this, it seemed that something occurred to Teresa. She looked at Sophia beside Victor with guilt and whispered, "I didn't know you would come today, so I didn't make your soup. I'm sorry..."

TSophia kept silent for a long time. It wasn't until Victor pulled her sleeve under the table that she came back to her senses and found that all the people at the table were looking at her.

"Ah, it doesn't matter..." She said absent mindedly and looked abnormal.

"Sophia, you look unhappy. Are you still mad at me for what happened just now? I apologize. Don't be mad. It's all my fault..."

While speaking, Teresa became a little anxious. Her eyes turned red and seemed to be about to cry.

Sophia was embarrassed. However, she couldn't just sit by and do nothing. So she had to comfort her, "it has nothing to do with you. I'm fine."

"Teresa, don't waste your breath on someone irrelevant. Just come back and have dinner!" Grace stopped smiling and said sternly.

In fact, Grace really liked Teresa very much and was willing to play with her. Such a girl was rare in the world. But today, she found out that Teresa was so sad that she almost cried. As a result, Teresa was not so good to her as before.

However, Grace didn't say anything. After all, for Xiao family, An family which they knew well was a good one with strong background, while choose An family's eldest daughter to be daughter-in-law was the best one.

Teresa unwillingly sat back, but she still pretended to look at Sophia with worries.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little depressing. Sophia didn't know what to do. So she had to pick up the nearest dishes with chopsticks and eat something symbolically.

However, she did not put it into her mouth deliberately, like chewing wax, bitter...

An inexplicable delight arose in Teresa's heart when she saw Sophia's upset look. Teresa even ate a few more dishes that she didn't like to eat.

"Grace, my daughter Teresa has hidden her light under a bushel. She will give you some surprises every now and then. Please bear it,"

Connie tried to ease the atmosphere and continued her previous topic.
