Chapter 193: 0193 Hayden Jones_1

Look, now that Ellen has arrived, he won’t even go out the door.

He’s just afraid Ellen will catch him and ask questions.

Other kids in the neighborhood avoid him like the plague, and now he avoids Ellen like a serpent.

As soon as Sidney Addison finished saying this, he turned his gaze to Lucy Wood and asked gently, "How old is Lucy this year?"

Lucy sat there with her body straight, but she looked a bit restrained and now smiled, "I’m twenty-six."

When Olivia Johnson gave birth to Ellen, she was just over a year old and couldn’t remember anything, which was why she was completely unaware of having a younger sister.

Otherwise, she would have known about Ellen’s existence.

"Oh, two years older than Ellen."

Sidney Addison nodded and smiled, "I’ve also watched the TV dramas you acted in. When I had nothing to do, back then, I didn’t know you were Ellen’s sister."

Lucy’s face turned red in an instant, "Really?"

That was hardly something to be proud of.

Lucy was somewhat aware of her own TV dramas; her acting skills weren’t rubbish, but couldn’t be considered great either, mainly because she played in rather exaggerated plots.

She never thought a scientist like Sidney Addison would actually enjoy TV dramas!

How mortified she felt.

It was like being publicly executed.

With a chuckle, Sidney Addison said, "Why be shy? When I’m idle, I like to watch TV dramas performed by young people like you. Your acting skills are indeed better than many others."

Sidney Addison was an early adopter of the internet and enjoyed keeping up with the times.

She also followed the trends of the youth, whether it was passing time watching variety shows or dramas, or taking care of flowers and pets.

Her life was simple and comfortable.

Lucy felt her face expanding infinitely within the limited space. Initially feeling as if she was facing a public execution, she suddenly felt her ancestors must be glowing with pride—no, it was her own glow—after receiving such praise from the boss.

Thinking this, Lucy also smiled shyly, "You’re too kind. My acting is just average, and there’s a lot I need to improve on. There are many seniors in the industry with better acting skills than me."

Sidney Addison smiled, "It’s already quite good."

Aunt Shelly poured flower tea for everyone and called out for Chubby Jones from inside the house.

Grandma Addison’s husband’s name was Gael Jones.

In that generation, people’s names were quite casual, typically bearing patriotic monikers like ’strong country,’ ’establishing the country,’ but Gael Jones was still quite famous in Sina, though not as much as Grandma Addison.

He was also a professor at Andalu University. Now at an advanced age, he no longer taught, but he liked to research various things and often traveled outside. Coincidentally, he was not at home this afternoon.

Aunt Shelly knocked on Chubby Jones’ room, "Chubby Jones, we have guests, come out quickly. Don’t sulk. Ellen is your teacher, don’t you have basic respect for your teacher? If you don’t come out, I’m coming in to deal with you!"

Lucy sweat profusely as she listened. She hadn’t expected that even in the home of such sophisticated intellectuals, a mother’s methods could be so simple and crude.

The old house wasn’t very soundproof, and a muffled voice came from inside, "I won’t!"

Perhaps because of her decisive tone, Aunt Shelly’s expression instantly changed, "Hayden Jones!"

No matter where, invoking the full-name technique indicated the mother was feeling particularly irate.

About three seconds later, shuffling noises came from inside, and Chubby Jones opened the door to reveal his plump cheeks, peeking through the door gap at the people outside.
