"After getting to know him, I suddenly feel that I don't like Gavin!"

Wendy's words were like a bomb. "Boom-" It exploded in Joanne's mind, and she even suspected that she had an auditory hallucination.

However, Wendy was really standing in front of her. Those words were indeed spoken by Wendy.

She didn't have auditory hallucination.

Joanne looked at Freya with doubts, and Freya also had the expression of "what the hell is going on". They looked at each other for a moment, and Freya gave her a wink.

After so many years of tacit understanding, Joanne instantly understood Freya's implication and quietly observed Wendy.

Although she had resigned from her job as a policewoman, her professional knowledge, which she had gained after studying for five years, was still solid in her mind.

Joanne tried to use her professional knowledge to find something wrong from Wendy's look and subtle expressions.

But the result was disappointing.

Wendy's look was full of longing and yearning, which only made Joanne feel that she had really pushed Gavin aside and shifted her affection to Connell.

Moreover, if Wendy really liked Gavin, then it was impossible for her to suddenly realize that she did not like Gavin after getting to know Connell.

Joanne and Freya were both experienced. They knew well that when a woman really liked a man, she could not see anyone else except for the man. In this world, he was the most handsome and excellent person.

As for the others...

"I'm sorry, but who are the other people?"

Freya was deeply aware of this.

Ever since she fell in love with Chris, in Freya's eyes, she was not targeting anyone, and she really felt that the other men were all trash.

It's true for Joanne too. In her mind, even Chris, who had been taking care of her since they were young, couldn't be compared to Brian.

Wendy felt that she liked Connell more, which could only mean that she didn't like Gavin so much.

Or, as Wendy said, she had never liked Gavin. It was she herself who had misunderstood her feelings.

Wendy looked at Joanne and Freya in surprise. "Cousin, Cousin-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Joanne gave a fake smile. "I just don't quite understand the views of kids like you on love."

Wendy pretended not to understand Joanne's words, and laughed. "So, don't make fun of me and Gavin in the future, for fear of an embarrassing situation. By the way, Cousin, what would you like to eat for dinner?"

Martha came out of the kitchen and happened to hear Wendy's words. She smiled and answered for Joanne, "The chef has prepared the pigeon soup. The other dishes have not been ready yet. Miss. Xiao, what do you want to eat? Just go in and tell the chef!"

Wendy happily ran to the kitchen.

Only Joanne and Freya were left in the living room.

Freya lazily turned to look at Joanne. "Did you find anything wrong?"

Joanne shook her head in frustration and disappointment. "There was no loophole in Wendy's expression just now. It's just like those crime scenes made by high-IQ criminals. I couldn't find anything suspicious."

"Actually, it's not difficult to understand." Freya said, "Wendy is still young after all. It's not surprising to fall in love with the handsome men."

"Well-" Joanne pondered for a moment and said, "True love... Has nothing to do with age, right?" When she fell in love with Brian, she was still very young, only ten years old!

Freya stared at Joanne and suddenly realized. "Oh!" She said, "Wendy's fickle in love!"

"..." It was well-founded, and Joanne found that she couldn't refute it.

At this time, Joanne's mobile phone on the tea table rang, and the word "husband" was displayed on the screen.

Freya looked at Joanne with a meaningful look. Joanne did not avoid her and picked up the phone. "Honey!"

As long as the word came out of Joanne's mouth, Brian would never get tired of it.

Brian's pleasant laughter came from the receiver. "Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet, Freya and Wendy are here now. Martha is preparing the dishes." Joanne wore a look of happiness, and she slowly sank into the corner of the sofa. "Didn't you say that you would have dinner outside? Are you in the company or in the hotel?"

"I'm in the hotel," Brian said with a hint of exhaustion in his voice, "I just found an excuse to call you and avoid the alcohol."

Since he married Joanne, Brian had tried his best to decline the social activities as soon as possible.

The rest of the activities were often very annoying, and there was no etiquette at the table. He just needed to drink alcohol.

Usually, after such a dinner, either Brian or Gavin would be drunk.

What Joanne could do was only to worry about him.

She asked in a soft voice, "Who is it today?"

"A few people from the Land and Resource Bureau." Brian, who was in the hotel and far away from Joanne, looked at his watch and said, "It's estimated that it will take another three hours. If you are tired, you can go to sleep first. Don't wait for me."

"Oh, I'm not sleepy today. Wendy and Freya are with me." Joanne stretched out her feet. "By the way, is Gavin with you?"

"Mm," Brian said, "are you looking for him?"

"No." Joanne thought about it, and did not talk to Brian about Wendy on the phone. She just said, "Wendy is here. I suddenly remembered Gavin, so I mentioned him casually."

Joanne was not a person who liked to gossip. She had a reason to mention him casually.

However, the truth was too cruel. Brian did not want Joanne to know it for the time being, so he subconsciously avoided the topic related to Gavin and Wendy and naturally talked about something else with Joanne.

Not long after they talked, Wendy rushed out of the kitchen, and she excitedly said like a child, "We'll eat the Squirrelfish tonight!"

Her voice was heard by Brian through Joanne's mobile phone. Brian smiled and said, "It sounds like Wendy is in a good mood."

Joanne looked at the excited Wendy and said, "She's in a very good mood."

"In that case, tell her to stay there and wait for me to come back," Brian said, "I have something to tell her."

"Okay, I'll talk to her during the dinner." Joanne looked at the time and saw that the call had lasted for 25 minutes. She tentatively asked, "Are you going back to the private room?"

Brian admitted helplessly. "If I don't go back, they will come out and find me."

"Well, that's it. See you later!"

Joanne hung up the phone and at the same time, the dinner was ready. Martha served the dishes out of the kitchen one by one and said, "You can eat now!"

Wendy was the most excited one and she almost threw herself at the Squirrel Fish. As soon as she sat down, she couldn't wait to pick up the dishes. When she was enjoying the delicious food, Joanne suddenly said to her,

"Wendy, your cousin-in-law told you to wait for him to come back. He has something to tell you."

Brian made Wendy easily think of Gavin.

Wendy was stunned and even forgot to put the piece of Squirrel Fish into her mouth. She timidly asked, "What does Cousin-in-law... Want to say to me?"

"I didn't ask," Joanne took a sip of the soup and said slowly, "but it seems to be very important according to his tone."

Gavin was like a magic spell. Once she started to think about him, Wendy did not know how to stop herself. She was terrified that what Brian would say had something to do with Gavin, but she was looking forward to the news of Gavin.

While she was in a dilemma, Wendy realized that Joanne was looking at her. She suddenly smiled and said, "Then I will leave after my cousin-in-law comes back."

Joanne nodded.

She didn't know if she was wrong. Just now, Wendy seemed a little strange. Her tension and anxiety were very suspicious.

However, before she could take a closer look, Wendy's symbolic giggle had covered everything.

She was really young. She probably thought that she could cover it up by acting this way, but the truth was-

Joanne felt that the more she acted like this, the more suspicious she was!

During the meal, the three of them were lost in their own thoughts.

It was almost eight o'clock when they finished their dinner. If it was in the past, Freya would go back in a hurry. But today, seeing her lying on the sofa, it seemed that she had no intention of going home.

Joanne looked at Freya doubtfully. "Are you willing to leave my brother at home alone?"

Freya tut-tutted and replied without thinking, "I'm not unwilling, but expecting It!

Joanne keenly captured the trace of gossip and asked with interest, "Have you quarreled with my brother as soon as you came back?"

"No!" Freya didn't intend to hide something from Joanne at all. She just lazily laid down on the sofa and said, "I'm exhausted after the honeymoon!"

"..." Joanne pursed her lips, but still couldn't help bursting into laughter with an expression of "I know, but I won't say it out".

Obviously, Wendy, who was inexperienced in sex, did not understand Freya's implied meaning. She took a strawberry from the plate and asked, "Cousin-in-law, is your schedule very tight?"

Freya was speechless.

Joanne smiled and coughed, handing Wendy a small bunch of red grapes,"Your cousin-in-law said that she was not physically tired... Uh, in fact, she is physically tired. But this kind of fatigue is not because of the tight schedule, but something else!"

Wendy still did not understand and ate half of the strawberry in her hand. "Cousin, what are you talking about?"

"..." Freya was speechless and touched her forehead. "Wendy, you've known Gavin for so long, how can you not understand me?" "Gavin likes to talk dirty, but why doesn't he talk dirty to Wendy?"

Joanne spread out her hands with a meaningful look and gave Wendy a look that implied "it can only be understood instead of being taught" without saying anything.

Then, even if Wendy was very innocent, she knew the meaning of Joanne and Freya. She quickly blushed, bowed her head, and kept eating the grapes.

"Talk dirty!

"Those adults always talk dirty!"

Seeing Wendy like this, Joanne and Freya couldn't help but laugh. Freya tut-tutted. "Wendy, it seems that Gavin is a gentleman before you."

Wendy knew what Freya was referring to. Thinking that Gavin was her brother, she felt embarrassed and said, "Cousin-in-law, don't joke. It's impossible for Gavin and I to be together!"

Seeing that Wendy's face was really red, Freya kindly let her go for the time being. "Then I won't joke about you. I'll go home first. You stay here and wait for Mr. Brian to come back!"

Joanne held the sofa and stood up. "Freya, did you drive?"

"No. I have been on the plane for more than ten hours. I am too tired, so Chris asked the driver to send me here." Freya held Joanne. "You're pregnant, so you don't have to send me off. Don't worry, the driver is waiting for me outside. I'll go!"

After that, Freya left like a gust of wind.
