The car drove directly into the yard, and Wyatt got out and had to greet the elders.
Only Huang Meihua was at home, and she warmly welcomed Wyatt.
"Auntie, you don't need to bother. I have a meeting this afternoon. I won't feel at ease until I've brought the two beautiful ladies back."
Anne was taken upstairs by the maid to take a shower, change clothes, and go to bed. Zhang Hongmei saw Wyatt off and sat down next to Huang Meihua, telling her about what had happened that morning.
"Godmother, I think this method works. This actress has really helped me a lot."
"Hmph! They're all promiscuous people who have no self-respect whatsoever."
Thank you, Hongmei. You can correct this child's behavior gradually in the future.
"Godmother, we both made mistakes."
"oh?"
"Do you know why Anne told me she wanted to make movies and become a movie star? It's because she thinks she's too beautiful, that's why she had that idea."
We need to be careful in the future; we can't always compliment her appearance. We should try to avoid using that word in the future.
She's too narcissistic; that's not a good thing. I've decided that after Christmas, I'll immediately start working on the film company and have Annie go there whenever she has time to follow the progress. This way, she can see more of the darker aspects of life.
I think if we both take care of it, and she still has this idea, then you might as well let go and let her give it a try.
She will see a lot, so she definitely won't do anything bad in the future.
Huang Meihua didn't look up. "Hongmei, what I hate most are actors. My grandfather and father were like that, and my father was even worse. Because of that, my mother lost her baby brother."
Your godfather also kept several actresses as mistresses when he was young; I absolutely hate them.
Zhang Hongmei patted her hand. "Godmother, it won't happen. Our family is powerful enough. Who would dare to mess with Annie? Besides, Annie has been pampered since she was a child. External conditions simply cannot attract her."
So you don't need to worry. Just treat it as a job. It's a child's hobby.
Besides, perhaps we're overthinking it. Anne has seen the darkness here, so maybe she'll back down?
So don't overreact to things that haven't happened.
Huang Meihua patted Zhang Hongmei's hand. "I also hope it's the last scenario. I don't want my child to live a hard life. With such excellent conditions, why would she want to sell her smiles?"
Zhang Hongmei really couldn't persuade her anymore. The old woman had a knot in her heart that she couldn't untie, and Zhang Hongmei didn't want to force Annie, fearing that would backfire.
"You should go up and rest too. You've been working so hard for Annie."
"It's okay, I'm not tired. I'm just worried that you might be in a bad mood. I'll spend more time chatting with you."
"Hehe, it's alright. I've seen all sorts of storms, I'm just a little disappointed."
Zhang Hongmei really wanted to say that this was just a job. But looking at the somewhat worried old man, she just couldn't bring herself to speak.
"Godmother. I'll start writing the script in the next few days." Zhang Hongmei wanted to slap herself as soon as she finished speaking; why did she have to bring up such a sensitive topic?
"Hehe, don't make that face. Your godmother isn't that narrow-minded. As long as you don't have any ambitions to become an actress like Annie, I'll support you in everything else!"
"Hehe, I really don't have that kind of thought. I'm probably just introverted and don't have the courage to stand in front of millions of people."
“You are a sensible child. Perhaps it is a good thing for you to have suffered since childhood.”
"Hehe." Zhang Hongmei chuckled dryly, genuinely unsure how to continue the conversation; that's how she always managed to kill the chat.
Huang Meihua leaned back. Zhang Hongmei had never seen her like this before. She was usually dignified and elegant. This was the first time she had seen Huang Meihua so lazy.
“Hongmei, your godmother is getting anxious. I want Carlos to get married and have children as soon as possible. Annie alone is not enough for the new generation.”
Now I even blame myself a little for being so strict with Carlos when he was a child. Even though we had two illegitimate children, I think I can accept it now.
Zhang Hongmei thought to herself, "Annie's matter must have been a huge blow to the old man. Such a traditional person, how could he say something like that?"
"Godmother, you should have a good talk with Carlos. He's so filial, he'll definitely understand you."
"Yes, I know. I'm impatient. I'm getting old, and I'm afraid I won't see the next generation before I die."
"Godmother, you're overthinking it."
"No, I didn't think too much about it, Hongmei. You'll understand when you reach my age. Money, power, and love are all fleeting things now."
The maid brought over hot tea, and Zhang Hongmei noticed that Huang Meihua's hand was trembling slightly as she held the teacup.
Zhang Hongmei was a little worried. "Godmother, let's go to the hospital to get checked out after Christmas."
"I'm fine."
"No, although I'm asking you, I only accept your consent. I will come with you in person."
"I'm really fine. I just got angry yesterday and didn't sleep at night, which is why I'm like this today. I'm over sixty years old, and my health is already quite good."
"That won't do either. You must go to the hospital. Godfather, you two go together."
Huang Meihua held her teacup, looking at Zhang Hongmei with a complicated expression. She had a daughter of her own, but no one really cared about her; she was even less cared for than a goddaughter with no blood relation.
"Okay, I'll do as you say, let's go to the hospital."
"Godmother, you really don't need to worry about things that haven't happened yet. Seeing how much you oppose it, I will do my best to stop Anne."
Huang Meihua just smiled. Zhang Hongmei sensed that she was really different today. No, this really won't do. Let's go tomorrow. Nothing is more important than her health. Besides, Christmas isn't until the day after tomorrow.
Thinking about this, I'll tell Beth and his son when they get back. This is no small matter.
"Godmother, shall we go to the greenhouse? I really love flowers, but I've never been able to keep them alive. I've watered them, fertilized them, loosened the soil, and made sure everything is dry, but they just won't survive."
"I really don't know about that. I've loved flowers since I was a child, and I'm very good at growing them. Back then, I had a big courtyard of my own, and my favorite thing to do was to plant flowers. I planted all the flowers in the courtyard myself, and I never needed any maids to help me."
The two talked as they walked toward the greenhouse. It was very warm inside, but the humidity was so high that Zhang Hongmei felt it was difficult to breathe.
"Godmother, isn't it too stuffy in here? Don't we need to ventilate it?"
"It's not possible now. We need to ventilate for another ten minutes after 4 p.m.
"There's still time for this? That's too complicated!"
"What's so profound about it? It's just experience. Are you feeling uncomfortable here? Let's go out."
