C14 Unfortunately, It Was Her Brother-in-law!

“We don’t have enough family members, so we can’t even gather a table. You can call your brother-in-law tomorrow.”

Estrella’s smile froze. “He’s busy, so don’t disturb him.”

Ever since Caiden had exposed her relationship with Taylor, she had never known how to face him. Taylor knew his parents' attitude, but he had always been working hard. On the other hand, she had been stagnant. She felt guilty and guilty. Caiden was right. Her and Taylor's future was indeed bleak.

“You’ve been staying with me in the hospital these days. You’ve rejected my brother-in-law’s invitation to go out, so I feel uneasy.” Aimee asked, “Did you have a quarrel with him?”

"No."

“Then we have to invite brother-in-law. Consider it as compensation for you neglecting him these days.”

Estrella frowned and hesitated, "But..."

"I don't think my brother-in-law has ever entered our house before. This is a good opportunity to let him know who I am. My brother-in-law loves you so much, he will definitely be very happy." Aimee hugged Estrella's arm and acted coquettishly.

Kate happened to hear their conversation and said, “Yeah, let’s invite Taylor. You’ve been in love for four years, so you can meet your parents. Isn’t Little Taylor also looking to take you home to see his parents? We only have a few people in the house, so why don’t we take this opportunity to meet them?”

She could have refused to chat with Aimee, but when Kate said that, she could not refuse. Kate was an elder, so if she refused, it would mean that she did not value Taylor. She could only nod, "Alright, I'll give him a call."

Kate had always been very enthusiastic about Taylor’s situation. She even knew about his family situation and his physical condition. However, she kept her mouth shut tight. She could not get in touch with Taylor from her side, so she could not come up with any ideas. This time, she had finally found an opportunity. She had to make good use of it.

Taylor was handsome and had a good family background, so how could he let that girl, who was his daughter, take advantage of him? After all, he had raised her for so many years, and he owed her a debt of gratitude. As for the matter of the 50,000 yuan that day, Kate seemed to have forgotten about it.

Stella took her phone and walked away, calling Taylor.

When Kate saw her leave, she said to her daughter lightly, "You have to seize the opportunity."

The hearts of mother and daughter were connected. Aimee immediately understood what her mother wanted to say.

Aimee shook her head firmly. She could not do that. Although she was adopted, she was still her sister. How could she do such a thing? Furthermore, her brother-in-law and her sister loved each other so much.

Aimee quickly lowered her voice and said, "Previously, we already let you down enough. Mom, you can't have such thoughts."

Kate glanced at Stella's back and did not say anything, but her eyes were filled with unwillingness.

When Taylor picked up the phone, he sounded like he was busy. His voice was a little hurried, but when he heard what Estrella said, he agreed without hesitation.

Stella, who had just received the call, looked at Aimee with a heavy expression and asked, "What happened to Aimee? She doesn't seem to be very happy."

Kate didn't say anything. She packed her things and left.

Aimee held back her words, but she couldn't say them out loud. Her eyebrows were knitted tightly together.

Seeing her mature sister's expression, Estrella burst into laughter. Staring at her beautiful face, she smiled and propped up her chin. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why aren't you happy? Why don't you tell me?"

Aimee sighed in her heart. No matter how hard her life had been, as an elder sister, she had always been full of positive energy. She had never complained, never hated, and had never even shown a little temper. She was perfect, as if she had no temper. She had always been very happy.

Estrella was very beautiful. When she smiled, she looked like an angel. Her big eyes were bright and clear, as if they had been washed clean by water. Aimee felt uncomfortable and envious.

She really hoped that she could have her personality.

Aimee finally got out of the hospital.

Taylor drove to pick them up. Starry sat in the passenger seat while Aimee sat in the backseat. She would occasionally look at Taylor, who was indeed as outstanding as her mother had said. It was a pity that he was already her brother-in-law.

Aimee thought to herself, I hope that I can find a prince charming like this in school before I graduate. After all, she and Estrella were admitted to the same university!

Kate had already prepared a table full of dishes at home. Once the three of them arrived home, they could start eating.

Kate was usually very frugal, but this time, she actually made a table full of dishes and even bought two bottles of expensive white wine.

She washed her hands and sat down with a smile. She picked up two pieces of braised pork and stuffed them into her mouth.

Braised pork was the red rose in Estrella's heart. When she was young, she had seen this dish on TV and in books countless times. She had been thinking about it all the time. Unfortunately, she did not have money at home, so she could only eat it once every few days. It was not until she had a change in her financial situation that she could eat it again.

In Aimee's words, her eyes would light up the moment she saw the meat.

After stuffing a large piece of braised pork into her mouth, her face was filled with happiness. When Taylor saw her gluttonous look, the corner of his mouth could not help but curl up. He liked her so much. She was simple, beautiful, and easy to satisfy. She did not have so much worldly greed.

Kate frowned and poked Estrella twice. She said unhappily, "The guest hasn't even sat down yet."

"Aunt Kate, didn't I just sit down?" Taylor smiled as he sat down beside Estrella, helping his beloved girlfriend out of her predicament.

Kate had no choice but to pull Aimee over to sit down. The two of them chatted and laughed, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Taylor looked at Estrella with a doting expression, occasionally interrupting with a few words, causing everyone at the table to smile.

Kate quietly sized up the boy. He looked pretty and had good family background. It would be great if he could be together with her Aimee. Unfortunately, Aimee was a stubborn girl.

After thinking for a while, Kate poured a glass of wine for Taylor and said, “Our family is poor. I believe you have seen it yourself. I hope you don’t mind and take good care of our family.”

"How could that be? I will love her everything." Taylor drank a bit of alcohol and leaned over to kiss her on the cheek, causing her to cover her face with her hand.

Stella did not drink, but her cheeks were slightly flushed. She looked at Taylor and said in a low voice, "You are going to die soon if you keep showing your affection."

Taylor didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Is there such a curse?"

"It's not that..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Kate interrupted her rudely, “Our family’s situation is not good. Aimee was kidnapped a few days ago and only came back that night. She scared our Aimee to death.”
