Chapter 93
Her sister, Lydia, and adoptive mother, Incia, were leah inside, sitting by the fireplace.

Seeing Hailey enter, Loria immediately jumped up from her seat and went toward Hailey, saying in surprise, “You’re finally home. This must be Mr. Calhoun Nice to mert your
Owen was humble and polite. “Nice to meet you, ton. Mrs Brown. I’m Owen Calleun. You can call me Owen
Hailey could not help laut want to laugh. In bensiness, who would dare to call Owen by his first name?
Lucia said again, “Hey, Owen, come on in You must have been freezing all the way here. The two of you, sit down and warm yourselves by the fire, Greg, please take the suitcases to the room”
Greg stepped forward silently
Owen quickly said, “Tran do it myself”
Lucia was welcoming, “It’s fine. Come and sit down and warm yourselves by the fire. It’s such a chilly day.
Hailey pulled Owen to sit down.
Lydia was quiet. She only took a few glances at Hailey when she entered. Then, she glanced at Owen and continued to warm herself by the fire.
Lucia and Hailey chatted for half an hour before going to bed
Because of the lack of rooms, Hailey had to sleep with Lydia, and Owen would sleep alone.
After all, they were only boyfriend and girlfriend. In the Brown family’s house, they had to follow the tradition
Lydia remained silent as if she was still blaming Hailey for leaving,
She quietly made the bed and got on it herself, facing the wall with her back to Hailey.
Hailey took off her shoes, turned off the lights, and lay down quietly. She wanted to say something, but it didn’t seem the right time.
There was a thorn in Lydia’s heart. If she did not pull the thorn out, they would never bury the hatchet.
Therefore, she could not avoid the topic back then and let it pass. On the contrary, she had to have a good talk with Lydia. But tonight was not a good time.
Hailey sighed in her heart and closed her eyes. After a day’s travel, she was tired and quickly fell asleep.
The next day, it was past eight o’clock when Hailey woke up. It was already bright outside.
Owen woke up early and was helping with the work.
It was farm work to feed the chickens and ducks. He looked a little clumsy but quite cute
Hailey watched at the door for a while and felt the scene was worth remembering, so she took out her phone and took a photo
Owen saw her. He turned around, and his cars rarely turned red.
“Good morning, darling. Wash your hands and eat. There are pancakes for you, Lucia shouted from the kitchen.

Hailey responded.

“The street has been bustling these few days. Many foreigners have come to do lenine. After we finish eating let da show you and Owen around. You haven’t been back for long Go greet the neighbors on the street and catch up a bit with them.” Lucia looked at her kinelly.
Hailey nodded sweetly. “I understand, Mom”
Lucia raised her hand and gently stroked her hair.
After dinner, Lydia took them to the market.
A man at the intersection waved when he saw Lydia. Lydia’s eyes lit up, and a shy smile appeared on her face.
The man was not tall and had delicate features. He wore a blue jacket and shrunk his neck because of the cold weather
“Is this your sister and her boyfriend? Tony Walsh could not help but gaze at Hailey for a while. A trace of amazemen flashed in his eyes,
Then, he looked at Owen, who exuded an air of nobility. It was obvious that he was not an ordinary person
Tony had other thoughts.
Lydia nodded and introduced, “This is my boyfriend, Tony
Tony looked at Lydia with playful anger. “I’ll be your fiancé soon.”
Lydia could not help but smile. Her face was filled with love. It seemed this Tony had a way with Lydia and had made her a soft woman.
In Hailey’s memory, Lydia had always been a strong–willed girl. She couldn’t become a soft and delicate girl who was deep in love.
Hailey smiled faintly and said hello.
Owen was cold in front of outsiders. He only nodded and said nothing.
Tony seemed enthusiastic. “You’re going to the market, right? Let’s go together. Hailey, you’ve been away for so long. I’m sure you’ve forgotten most of the fun places on the street. Let me show you guys around”
Lydia was somewhat unhappy.
She had secretly called Tony over because she wanted to use the excuse of a date to leave. She did not expect Tony to make that request. At that moment, she could not say anything.
The conversation along the way made Lydia break down even more.
Tony had completely forgotten about her. After knowing Owen’s identity, he wished he could stick to Owen and talk endlessly about his entrepreneurship, hoping to win Owen’s approval.
Lydia already felt she was inferior to Hailey. Then, her fiancé was still following behind Hailey’s boyfriend like an ass–kisser. What was she then?
Lydia was so pissed that he wanted to explode. Her dissatisfaction was written all over her face.
Hailey gave Owen a comforting look and followed behind Lydia. “Lydia, the one in front is the ice cream stall we used to eat when we were young, right?”
Lydia looked up and gave a perfunctory hum

Hailey did not mind. She smiled and took her hand. “Let’s go take a ”
Lydia could only be diverted.

The ice cream seller’s name was Sarah Told, who had watched Hailey grow up. Hadley bought four ice creams and chatted with Sarah during the waiting time.
Sarah had recently become a grandmother and was overjoyed. Her previous meannew and unreasonableness were gone. and her eyes were filled with smiles.
The two chatted for a long time before walking away from the shop
Tony said, “This shop has been here for decades. It should have been closed a long time ago. In the future, when our town develops tourism, this entire street will have to be renovated”
Hailey frowned slightly. “How?”
Tony added, “That depends on the higher–ups‘ ideas. However, I suggest closing these stalls and changing them to shops or diners. That way, it’ll look beautiful. It’ll be a food street.”
The suggestion was not bad. The town had fallen behind for too long, so it should indeed be renovated.
Tony was very proud. “Our higher–ups have allocated a lot of money. I’m the overall person in charge of this project.” Hailey glanced at him. She did not care if Tony was capable or not, nor did it matter. She only cared if he would treat Lydia well.
Some men might be outstanding in their careers, but that did not mean they were responsible in their marriage.
In front of them was the market. Most of the people setting up stalls were foreigners. Blue tents were neatly set up in two rows from the cast to the west.
