Flossie Wright thought for a moment before she remembered the name of Glenn Hutchinson’s sister.
Gracia Hutchinson.
Two years ago, during Flynn Reid’s birthday, she was the one who brought Flynn over. They met at that time and had a good impression of each other.
But the loud voice now really contrasts with the sharp and capable image from before.
However, acting like a daughter at home seems to be quite normal.
Seeing Flossie stop, Kirana Williams, worried she might be confused, explained, "Glenn’s sister, you should have seen her before. The women in our family aren’t really skilled in kitchen matters."
Flossie nodded.
She wasn’t skilled in these matters herself, so naturally, she had no reason to judge others.
Seeing her acting normal, Kirana was relieved.
When there was only Mark Hutchinson and Kirana at home, there were two servants to help out. After all, Mark wasn’t home every day, and for Kirana, whose hands never touched spring water, it was impossible to live without a cook and a cleaning servant.
These days, Mark and Gracia came back, so Kirana let the servants go home to celebrate the New Year. Plus, according to the Hutchinson Family philosophy, it’s best not to have outsiders present when the family eats together.
"Sister-in-law is here."
Gracia Hutchinson came out with a fruit platter, and upon seeing Flossie, a smile immediately spread across her face as she greeted her.
The gloomy mood from making a mess in the kitchen just vanished in an instant.
Flossie resisted the urge to respond to the title.
She walked into the living room, looked around, and saw Mark Hutchinson, Glenn Hutchinson, and the small Flynn Reid in the kitchen, leaving behind three women chatting and gossiping in the living room.
In fact, Flossie didn’t find anything strange about it.
She felt comfortable letting the three men busy themselves in the kitchen.
Gracia and Kirana were very familiar with Flossie; she was not someone who liked to initiate conversation and showed little interest in their chat. She thought it might be awkward, but the two managed to chat with her for over an hour without repeating topics.
When interacting with some people, they could always create a comfortable atmosphere for you, speaking appropriately without causing any awkwardness.
Having never been involved in family matters in either of her lifetimes, Flossie found she didn’t have much in common with them at the moment, but that didn’t mean Flossie couldn’t converse.
On the contrary, she spoke sharply and acted well, aligning with a battle-tested demeanor that left little to criticize.
Thus, the trio somehow found their conversation surprisingly pleasant.
Just as they were engrossed, the doorbell rang.
The previously arranged relatives started arriving one by one.
There were many relatives in the Hutchinson Family, but the ones who came were those who had the closest contact with them, feeling as if they were at home. In front of Flossie, they treated her just like their own daughter-in-law.
Flossie was just greeting them when her hands were quickly filled to the brim with red envelopes...
What was incredible was that these wealthy individuals didn’t use cash; they stuffed her red envelopes with checks instead.
"Oh no, we were chatting too much and forgot to introduce people to Sister-in-law."
Gracia Hutchinson pulled Kirana Williams aside and said with a headache.
Kirana seemed to have just realized this problem too, looking a bit dazed.
They had planned to inform Flossie in advance about the relatives coming, because there were many people, worrying that Flossie might not remember and end up calling someone wrongly or something like that.
However, both of them had completely forgotten this important mission.
For a moment, Gracia and Kirana exchanged glances and cautiously looked over towards Flossie.
A crowd of relatives surrounded Flossie, not knowing what they were inquiring about, each one cheerful and looking at Flossie with such warmth...
It was as if they wanted to take Flossie into their own family.
Both immediately felt a strong sense of crisis.
"It seems," after a pause, Gracia Hutchinson rubbed her nose, thinking aloud, "it’s fine."
Kirana watched from the side for a while.
Eventually, as her gaze lingered on Flossie, she inexplicably felt more satisfied.
To be honest, this daughter-in-law was completely different from the one she had in mind before.
Though she had no idea what kind of woman her son would find attractive, she couldn’t help but secretly wonder about it, considering she had a son, thinking about her son’s marriage would inevitably lead to considering the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship.
Before meeting Flossie, the "daughter-in-law" in Kirana’s mind was gentle and virtuous. Glenn Hutchinson worked hard in the Forces, so the daughter-in-law should be adept at both social events and domestic chores, not complying with Glenn’s every whim, but keeping an agreeable disposition at the very least.
Since meeting Flossie two years ago, Kirana’s fantasies were completely swept away, inexplicably feeling that this woman was a perfect match for her son.
Calm and charismatic, yet not cold or indifferent, her demeanor and way of handling things were highly appropriate, making one feel she was reliable—entrusting her own son to this woman truly brought peace of mind.
The "weak daughter-in-law" she initially envisioned paled completely in comparison to this "strong daughter-in-law."
"Hey, Mom," fueled by curiosity, Gracia Hutchinson tugged at Kirana’s sleeve, furrowing her brows in thought before speaking, "Don’t you think sister-in-law...tsk, how to say, is different from those socialites?"
"She’s from a military background, isn’t it obvious?" Kirana replied matter-of-factly.
If there weren’t people nearby, Kirana would have been more blunt in dismissing Gracia’s concern with a simple "Can anyone else compare?"
Those delicate socialites were no match in front of the heroic Flossie Wright!
"No, it’s just," Gracia thought for a moment, finally hesitating before speaking, "Don’t you think she looks particularly handsome?"
As she spoke, Gracia Hutchinson raised her eyes, casting a glance towards Flossie.
She really did have stunning looks!
Logically, when a daughter-in-law visits her in-laws for the first time, she ought to dress herself very prettily, with dresses, bags, styles—you name it. But Flossie’s attire really stood out as unusual.
A black long coat, paired with a black long sweater inside, along with shorts and boots—all women’s clothing but with a stylishly androgynous vibe—perfectly complimented Flossie’s figure.
To them, accustomed to seeing socialites, it was an entirely new dressing style.
Gracia even thought that standing next to her powerful brother, Flossie’s aura wouldn’t be overshadowed at all!
"No need to think so," Kirana, uninterested, waved her hand, "It’s a fact."
Gracia Hutchinson: "..."
