“Granny!” Upon seeing Alyssa, Wendy gave her a slight nod and a smile.
“Chloe, would you give me a hand and wheel me to my breakfast?” Alyssa said. Hannah vacated a
spot for Chloe, motioning her to come over.
Chloe hesitated for a moment, then stepped up to the plate and pushed Alyssa into the dining room.
Wendy’s face was clearly still a bit awkward. Seeing this, Presley stood up and said, “Addie, help
Wendy get to the dining room for breakfast.” “Okay!”
Watching Presley take the lead and leave, Addie helped Wendy up, whispering with a laugh. “Ms.
Alonso, don’t worry. In this house, Presley’s word carries a lot of weight. He’ll look out for you, no more
biting your tongue.”
A faint smile crossed Wendy’s face, “But this is still the Harper family, and my relationship with Ms.
Summers is broken…
“She hasn’t even set a wedding date! This is a golden opportunity, if you play your cards right, I believe
Damon will see your merits! Plus, with Presley favoring you, who knows what the future holds!”
Wendy gave a wry smile, agreeing silently. Her previous actions were beyond repair, so she could only
be as pleasant as possible. She believed that as long as she kept a low profile, her presence would still
be felt.
“Anyway, Ms. Alonso, just relax and make yourself at home! Don’t feel out of place, the servants,
guards, drivers, and so forth, most of them were transferred from Hong Kong, and they seem to like
you… We’d prefer if it were you who becomes the future Mrs. Harper…”
Addie’s words were cut short when she looked up to see Chloe standing at the doorway of the dining
room, smiling at them. Startled, Addie flushed, wondering how many of her words Chloe heard, and felt
a wave of embarrassment.
“Ms. Summers… what are you doing standing here instead of eating?”
“Do I need to report to you what I’m doing?”
After Chloe’said this, she realized it sounded familiar. It was something in the conversation of Addie
and her on the phone the day before.
At the thought, she gave a slight smile, looking at Addie, and said, “Addie, do you know what betrayal
means?”
Addie’s face turned beet red. “Ms. Summers, I may be a servant, but I deserve some respect. I’ve been
with the Harper family for longer than you…” “You’re aware that you’re a servant in the Harper family,”
Chloe said, staring at her. “But you seem to be more like Ms. Alonso’s kin.”
She paused, ignoring their awkward expressions, and laughed, “Has Ms. Alonso planted her own
people in the Harper family?”
Hearing this, Wendy’s face turned ashen. She anxiously glanced at Presley, clearly flustered by Chloe’s
suspicions.
“What the hell are you talking about?” She snapped at Chloe, her voice low. “Don’t speculate wildly and
sow discord between our families. Our families have long–standing close ties, why would we do
something like that? You don’t know anything, so shut up!”
Chloe squinted, sizing her up silently. This made Wendy uneasy. Wendy walked past her, heading
straight for the dining room.
“Chloe, where’s Damon? Why isn’t he down yet?” Alyssa asked impatiently.
Chloe frowned, mentally noting Wendy’s reaction. “He was on the phone upstairs, might have some
stuff to deal with. I’ll go check.”
Just as she finished speaking, Damon slowly descended the stairs.
He took her hand and used his long fingers to check her wound, making sure it wasn’t disturbed, before
adjusting her garments. “Be careful not to strain yourself and worsen your injury.”
“Mmm.”
Chloe obediently nodded. Damon kissed her forehead and said, “We’ll head out after breakfast.”
“Hm?” Chloe raised an eyebrow, looking up at him, “Where to?”
“To our home, baby.”
Chloe felt a knot in her stomach. She remembered hearing the word cleaning when he was on the
phone upstairs.
Was she going back to Greenfield Village?
So that’s the reason of his silence when he heard that Presley was bringing Wendy to the Harper family
the day before.
Turns out, he had already decided to leave. To avoid her and Wendy meeting as much as possible.
But unfortunately for him, Presley was quicker.
Unsurprisingly, when Damon entered the dining room with Chloe and saw Wendy, his cold face grew
even colder.
Seeing Damon, Wendy’s sickly face was pitiful enough, let alone the fear and anxiety that now showed.
Chloe scoffed. If she was so scared, why move in? Didn’t she think her acting was full of plot holes?
Damon tightened his grip on Chloe’s hand.
“Come eat,” Alyssa preemptively spoke, seemingly anticipating that Damon would try to whisk Chloe
away.
Compared to Presley, Damon had a deeper regard for Alyssa. Perhaps every family was like this, no
matter how equal, you could always tell who was favored in the little things.
In fact, Damon didn’t refuse Alyssa’s request; he just glanced at Chloe as if asking for her opinion.
Chloe didn’t object, of course. This was her home, and it was breakfast time, the highlight of the
morning. She wasn’t about to let her routine be disrupted by Wendy.
When they took their seats, Elizabeth and Royce strolled back in from outside. Whatever Royce had
said to Elizabeth, her demeanor wasn’t as fiery as it had been the day before when she was arguing
with Presley. Wendy called out to him, and she responded with a noncommittal grunt, then took her
seat next to Royce.
was
Just like yesterday’s meal, nobody was talking. Everyone present was already used to this kind of
awkward atmosphere. In such an atmosphere, Wendy felt even more uncomfortable. It was as if the
entire family was in a bad mood because of her.
Addie was constantly by Wendy’s side, seemingly ready to embarrasse Chloe, who had deliberately
made her uncomfortable earlier. She was attending to Wendy in every possible way, sometimes
serving her hot dishes, sometimes helping her with food, at times telling her not to eat spicy food, and
at other times not letting her eat tart food….
