Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 256

The Xander family was the second-largest aristocratic family in Jadeborough, which had no less influence than the Parks family. Old Mr. Xander’s 73rd birthday party. The Xander residence was decorated with lights and colored banners, which was a joyous scene. Old Mr. Xander was wearing a red button-up shirt, and his face was filled with joy. There was an endless stream of guests coming and the luxury cars stopped in front of the Xaner residence one by one.

The servants ran around to help park the cars and guide guests into the house. Old Mr. Xander’s birthday party was no less. grand than Samuel’s. Almost all the influential people in Jadeborough had come. The Xander Residence was a traditional garden with ancient flavor. All kinds of flowers were blooming and decorating the courtyard at this time. The black swans intertwined their necks in the man- made lake.

It was January, and the temperature was less than 10 degrees. However, the socialites who loved to look beautiful were all wearing long dresses. However, it was also the season to compete with each other in minks. They wore Long dresses with mink fur and handbags, making them look fresh and noble. It was Old Mr. Xander’s birthday, so the people from the Zeller family naturally had to come. So it was Nancyt’s home ground.

Nancy was wearing a long white dress and a top-grade mink fur coat, holding a limited edition handbag. Her hair was tied up, and her earrings hung down. She looked gorgeous and extraordinary, more elegant than a popular celebrity. Although she lived with her mother in the Zeller family, she was quite familiar with the people in the Xander family.

The moment she arrived, she greeted everyone warmly. “Granpa, Granma, Dad, Uncle…” Seeing Sybil helping Lee over, surprise flashed across her eyes. “Uncle Lee, you can walk now?” Lee was a little confused and looked at Sybil in surprise. Sybil introduced, “Lee, this is Nancy, the eldest daughter of Yechiel.” “Yes, Uncle Lee, I’m Nancy,” Nancy said. “Okay.” Lee smiled at Nancy with affection in his eyes.

Now that she was his niece, he naturaaly would like her. He had been cooped up in the room for so long that he had not even met his niece. Perhaps he had met her before. During the holidays, his nieces would visit him, but he would only reply perfunctorily before closing his eyes and continuing to lie down. At that time, he had little desire to live except for looking for his son. He lived by the faith of finding his son. After meeting Annalise and learning that Heather had passed away, he acknowledged Annalise as his daughter. He suddenly wanted to protect her. He began to cooperate with the treatment. He took a pill daily with an injection for a month, and his body recovered quickly.

At first, he was panting heavily when he got off the bed. Now he could walk. However, his muscle atrophy was severe because he had been bedridden for a long time. His-fnuscles. was much weaker than ordinary people and he needed a long time to recover. Many people were surprised to see Lee. They could not help but discuss quietly. “Mr. Lee Xander actually went out to meet other people. It’s amazing. It’s been 20 years since we last met him, right?” ‘Yeah, it’s been 20 years. How talented and amazing was he back then!” “He is also handsome now, but he looks weak.”

“I heard he fell seriously ill twenty years ago. and was bedridden. He lost his child, and his wife ran away with someone else. How miserable he was.” “At that time, I felt that maybe God doesn’t like him. I was afraid that he wouldn’t live long. Later on, he was bedridden. Although I didn’t hear any news of his death, I always felt that he would die at any time. I didn’t expect that he was alive when so many people had died in the past twenty years.” “Not only that. Except looking a little pale, he looks quite energetic now.”

“He has been in bed for 20 years! How can he not look pale? It is great that he can maintain such a state.” “Yes, it’s been 20 years. Everything has changed. Back then, his business ability and skills were unparalleled in Jadeborough. If not for his sudden serious illness, the Xander Corporation would have developed in his hands until now. Perhaps the Xander family is now the number one in Jadeborough.”

“That might not be the case. Julian Parks is also very powerful.” “That’s right. The market value of Parks Group has still increased year after year in such a bad economic situation.” Many people took

the initiative to greet Lee. They felt that once Lee recovered, it was very likely that he would take over the position of president of Xander Group again. After all, Lee was so clever. Annalise and Julian also came to the party. Tony asked them to enter the house with him, saying that they would look more like a family in this way.

In fact, he was trying to take the opportunity to repair their relationship. However, Julian rejected him mercilessly. “What’s the point of pretending to be close when we have had a falling out?” Asking him to follow behind Layla? No way! He held Annalise in his arms and went right past Tony. Tony was furious that he cursed Julian as a brat behind him. Annalise was almost two months pregnant. Not only was her pregnancy reaction serious, but her urine frequency was also serious. She did not even dare to drink water. She didn’t drink much water, but the moment she entered the Xander residence, she couldn’t help but want to go to the bathroom.

She looked around. Julian got her immediately. He asked her gently, “Do you want to go to the bathroom?” “Yeah, the reaction is a little annoying. I keep wanting to go to the bathroom,” Annalise said helplessly. Julian tightened Annalise’s jacket and said, “It’s too hard being a mother. When the baby is born, I want to tell him all the details. Let’s go, the washroom is over there.” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Julian accompanied Annalise to the washroom. He waited outside when Annalise wen bathroom. Before Annaise went in, he repeatedly said, “Be careful of the slippery floor and slow down.” “Okay.” Annalise could not hide her smile. She felt that in his eyes, she was like a three-year-old child who had to be told how even when she went to the washroom. Julian was waiting outside.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man came out of the men’s room. He held onto the wall with one hand on his chest and panted heavily. Then he squatted down. He seemed to be in a lot of pain, and a cold sweat began to break out on his forehead. He stood up again and walked forward with his hand over his heart. Seeing that he seemed to be sick, Julian was about to ask if he needed help when the man fell to the ground. Julian was about to reach out to help him up.

“Don’t touch him!” A girl walked over and said. Julian looked at the girl in surprise. The girl was about 18 or 19 years old and looked very delicate. She frowned slightly and immediately squatted beside the man on the ground. Then, she swiftly pricked the man’s fingers to make him bleed. Then, she looked up and said to Julian, “Hi, please help me call an ambulance. It is a sudden myocardial infarction. He can’t be moved.”

Then the girl quickly unbuttoned the man’s coat and revealed his breast. She took out a silver needle and acupuncture the man on his heart. Julian was helping to call an ambulance to say that there was a patient with a serious illness… Suddenly, his voice stopped. His eyes were fixed on the girl squatting on the ground doing the acpuncture. The silver needle, the orchid finger when holding the silver needle… The scene suddenly overlapped with the one from many years ago.
