Elizabeth would not care about him under this situation. She was afraid that the mud would splash on
her body. She said, "Butler, I didn't expect you to do such a thing." She pretended to be surprised.
Essie sneered and said, "These are copies. I have handed the original document to the police and your
son has been fired by Hengyuan Co., Ltd due to his embezzlement and participation in corruption. Now
he is drinking tea in the police station. You will soon go inside to keep him company."
The Butler fell down on the floor.
In the servant's room, Sage was packing up her belongings and preparing to escape. She knew that
Essie wouldn't let her go. In the past, she had followed Elizabeth to set up Luce, and now, she was
following Valery to frame her. She had committed a crime more serious than that of the Butler. But she
didn't know that her only dear son had been sent to the police station.
Someone was doomed to have a bad new year this year.
After the butler was taken away by the police, Essie arrange to bring the old butler, who had been
driven away by them earlier, and asked him to supervise and reorganize the servants in the manor. And
she changed all security guards as well.
'A cornered beast will do something desperate.' Elizabeth was anxious to find a way to deal with the
situation. In order to defeat Essie, the most important thing was to make her lose the support of Zac. Of
course it was Mary who could help her.
On the lunar new year's Eve, Essie arranged the family reunion dinner at noon. After that, she went to
the Rong family's house.
Rabi ran to her in her arms as soon as he saw her and said, "Mommy, I miss you so much."
"I miss you too, my little baby." Essie hugged him and kissed him on his cheek.
Zac sat on the sofa, poker faced. There was something flickered in his dark eyes.
Essie greeted the elders one by one, then Alena took her to sit beside her. "It is said that 'The rainbow
always comes out after the storms'. I believe that you and Zac will overcome the barrier, and will
cherish each other in the future."
"Yes, we will." Essie nodded with a gentle smile on her face. She wasn't sure whether they could make
it this time, but she didn't want to disappoint the grandma.
Alena patted her hands lovingly. "In the future, if Zac dares to bully you, just tell me and I'll teach him a
lesson."
"Grandma, what if she bullies me?" Zac asked her back with a smile.
"That's also your problem." Alena glanced at him, pretending to be annoyed.
"It seems that you don't want your grandson after you have your granddaughter in law." Zac said with a
humored smile. It was obvious that he was joking with his grandma.
"I need to care more for my granddaughter in law so that I can have a great grandson as soon as
possible," the old lady said with a smile.
"Now that since you have this wish, I'll hurry up and make one for you next year," Zac said with a smile.
"After today, it will be next year." The old lady's eyes began to shine in a clever way.
"You got some loopholes." Shaking his head, Zac sighed. "It seems that we have to start our efforts
from tomorrow on."
Though she knew that Zac was only making a joke to make the old lady happy, Essie still flushed.
Mary sat on the sofa not far away, wearing a mask of peace on her face, but her eyes were gloomy.
"Essie, I heard that your parents came to the Dragon City, right?" She asked tentatively. The day before
yesterday, Elizabeth told her a lot of things. Her main concern was that Luce had come to Dragon City.
Was she coming to encourage her daughter to challenge and revenge to her and Elizabeth?
"They are coming here for the Spring Festival. I don't have time to go back, so I have to bring them
here," Essie replied in a flat tone, but an imperceptible sharp expression crossed her eyes.
"Zac, tomorrow is the second of lunar January, go and visit your parents in law with Essie," Albert said.
Zac nodded. He should always be polite to them.
Although Essie still wore a calm smile on her face, she was a little restless in her heart. Since Zac was
going to the villa, he must see Mili and Dot. Dot resembled him so much. What if he became
suspicious?
But it was a custom to visit and pay respect to the parents in law on the second day of the lunar new
year. Besides, it was her father in law who asked his son to do so. She couldn't turn him down. She
had to come up with a solution quickly.
The new year's eve of Rong family was quite bustling. The new year's Eve dinner began at 6 o'clock on
time. After the meal, they went to the Lakeside Restaurant. They enjoyed the night snacks and stayed
up late on the lunar New Year.
Holding Rabi in her arms, Essie thought of Mili and Dot. If only they could be here too.
When he saw that she was in a daze and he felt that he was ignored by her, Zac was unhappy. He
vigorously flicked her forehead to pull her thoughts away.
"From now on, as long as you are with me, you must always think only of me." He made his first
hegemonic clause on New Year's Eve.
Essie gave him a glare and said slowly, "You know what? Though the brain is the general command
center of human body, there are two organs that are out of its control."
"Which two?" Zac said, raising his eyebrows.
"A man's cavernous body and a woman's heart," Essie said slowly and clearly.
A strange smile came over the corners of Zac's mouth. He leaned over and put his mouth close to her
ear. "Can a man conquer a woman's heart by sleeping it with his cavernous body?"
Essie was choked by what he said and she coughed with her hand covering her mouth. Then she
glared at him with her almond eyes. "No way!" Her answer was direct, brutal and determined.
