Chapter 12: Annie, My Baby

"Dad, Mom, I'm back." Her face turned into a smile as soon as she entered the house. Annie climbed down from Grandpa's body and plunged into her arms like a flamboyant butterfly. "Olive, you're back." Mother Steele came over with a smile and pinched the kiddy's nose, "You girl, you should call her mommy when you greet your mother. I think you should watch fewer cartoons in the future so as not to learn bad and have no respect to others." Chihiro said with a laugh, "It's all right. Annie's mother is also Annie's good friend." The animated film Annie watched was Miyazaki Hayao's 《Spirited away》. Annie used to have a sweet tooth like other children, but since she saw the cartoon, she has become a bit restrained. She said, "Greedy people will become pigs and pigs are ugly. Annie is a beautiful little princess and I have to maintain a good figure like mother Olive." At such a young age, she knew how to love beauty. It was hard to imagine what she would look like when she grew up. After putting on her new clothes and beautiful boots, Annie ran to the mirror in her room and looked left and right. Mother Steele said with a smile, "Look at you, you're looking in the mirror again, if you keep looking in the mirror, the mirror will be broken by you." Annie put her hands on her tiny waist and looked at the little girl in the mirror and said, "Mirror, Mirror, telling me who is the most beautiful woman in the world?" Olive held her forehead. It seemed that it was not a good thing to talk too much fairy tales before going to bed. She just looked at her daughter's serious face and she couldn't help laughing. She opened two other bags and said, "Mom, I bought you a down jacket. Dad, you try on this coat. It's cold now and you should put on more clothes when you go out" Mother Steele loved her dearly, "Look at you! your father and I have clothes to wear. Why do you waste this money? If you have money, you should save it. You are not too young. It's time to think about yourself and find a father for Annie." Olive was silent. When she graduated from college, the obedient girl was pregnant before she married and the othe party was unknown, which caused a lot of shock among her friends and relatives. Everyone was interested in Annie's biological father. Chloe had extorted a confession from her by torture, and even "despicably" tried to drunk her and tried to make elicit the truth after drinking. But in the end the result was that all the men and women at the table were drunk except for Olive. Since then, no one dared to compare her drinking capacity. Who was Annie's biological father? The answer to this question had always been a mystery, except for Olive herself. Even the adoptive parents who spoiled her like treasure, she did not reveal half, she just knelt in front of them and asked for their forgiveness. She asked them to stop questioning, all the bitter fruits were borne by herself. As for the man, he never knew that he had a daughter. But now that the man suddenly appeared in Luo city, was he for business or private? Or did he finally see the clues she left him and came over? She didn't know, her mind was in a state of confusion.
