At that time, as soon as Leila received his phone call, she rushed there for fear of something bad. The
two of them made up their minds and decided to avoid it for a period of time, in case they accidentally
revealed the truth.
In Leila's opinion, it was unwise to steal a child. She knew that Willi wanted to take the child as a
hostage to control the Rong's Group's brother, but it was too risky to bring the dead Steven back to life.
If Walt was exposed, all their plans would be in vain. And she would also be in trouble. If Zac knew that
she was Leila, he would definitely not let her go. By that time, it would not be as simple as being locked
up in a madhouse.
After coming back from his vacation, Walt had recovered and could face Essie and the child as calmly
as usual.
"Dawny, let uncle hug you." He reached out his hand with a smile.
Essie handed the baby to him.
The baby looked at him with his big eyes and then smiled, as if he still remembered him.
His heart softened into a pool of warm water. At this moment, no matter what, even his life, he was
willing to give it to this little baby.
"Brother, my son likes you very much." Zac smiled.
Looking at him, Essie smiled playfully, "Brother, I find that your posture of holding a child is very
professional. You don't look like a person who hasn't had a child at all. Look at icy guy. He's already the
father of four kids. He's still like a green hand. He's been training alone with a doll for a long time before
he learned it. "
With a trace of embarrassment on his face, Zac coughed and said, "Honey, don't spread the family
scandal."
It was not until then that Walt realized his inappropriate behavior. In order to prevent the secret from
being exposed, he quickly said, "When I was in the United States, I worked as a volunteer in a welfare
house and had some experience in taking care of children."
"No wonder." With an indescribable deep look on her face, Essie smiled.
"Let me hug you too." Leila reached out her hand. Walt gave her a glare secretly, warning her not to do
anything to hurt his baby.
Pretending not to see it, Leila took her baby from him. As soon as the baby came into her arms, he
burst into tears. Essie quickly took him over.
"Sister in law, the baby is a little shy. Don't take it to heart."
Leila curled her lips. No wonder he was the son of a tramp. He was so annoying just at such a young
age. While she was thinking, the sound of dripping water came from her clothes. She looked down and
found that the mink coat was wet by the little baby.
"Ah --" Leila screamed and stamped her feet. She was so angry that her head was about to explode.
No wonder he was a bastard. Damn it! Damn it! This was the golden mink overcoat she just bought. It
was a limited edition.
In a hurry, Essie called a servant to help her dry clean the clothes.
Walt burst into laughter. No wonder he was his son. He had a clear distinction between love and hate!
Zac took the baby from Essie's arms and said, "What a naughty boy! He greeted his aunt in this way."
He chuckled.
"As long as he likes it, let him pee. If it's broken, I'll buy her another one," Walt said indifferently.
Leila glared at him. She was very angry, but he was still a baby who had not weaned yet. If she wanted
to make trouble, she would be childish. She could only take a deep breath and squeezed a smile from
the stiff corner of her mouth. "It's okay. It's okay. I just feel a little sorry for this overcoat. I just bought it
and it's my first time to wear it today."
"Brother, sister-in-law, you two should have a baby too," Essie said with a smile.
"I'm not ready yet. I've just gotten married to Walt. It's better for us to be alone for two years." Leila
smiled faintly.
While she was talking, Mary went downstairs. "It's better to have a child as soon as possible. After
having a child, your relationship will be stable." If Zac and Essie didn't have a child or a son, she could
easily kick her out of the Rong family. Why did she have to spend so much effort?
It was true that God treated Essie much better than Luce. She had a boy and a girl twins in her first
pregnancy. In this way, the eldest grandson of the Rong family was occupied by her son.
"Mommy, it's good that you're back. I've bought a lot of gifts and I'm going to see you." Seeing her,
Leila smiled brightly.
"I know you are the most obedient and filial one. I've been in the garden for so long, and only you come
to see me often. " Mary sighed, with a deliberately sad expression on her face.
"I lost my parents at a very young age. In my heart, you are my biological mother. It's my duty to be filial
to you." Leila's mouth was as sweet as honey.
This move was indeed very useful to Mary. Her ears were warm. Being ignored by Albert and Zac and
his brother for so many days, she inevitably felt empty in her heart. She hoped that someone could
care about her and warm her up.
Her sons had already had their wives, but they forgot their mother. They couldn't be a considerate
sweetheart to her. If she could have a daughter like Elizabeth who would go up and down with her, she
wouldn't be so lonely and helpless.
Although she returned to the Rong family, it was like she was in a probation period. If she was not
careful, she would be thrown into the cold palace again. She urgently needed a helper to help her. This
person must be her elder daughter-in-law.
She walked up to Leila and held her hand. "I don't have a daughter. I'm satisfied to have a filial and
sensible daughter-in-law like you."
Sitting on the sofa, Essie watched coldly the touching scene of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law
showing respect and love to each other. She was deliberately targeting her and acting in front of her?
She was unfilial, thoughtless and disobedient. Instead of being considerate to her mother-in-law, she
made her angry all day long and fought with her to the death.
Zac frowned slightly, and his disgust for Leila deepened. This woman was really not simple. She was
trying to please her mother-in-law and planned to use her to deal with his muddled-headed fool.
He could see that she was ambitious to be the hostess of the Rong family.
Ambitious women were the most annoying.
He stood up and hugged Essie. "Let's go upstairs first."
Mary glanced at him and nodded slightly. She looked very kind. "Go ahead. The baby should be hungry
too. It's time to feed him."
Back in the room, Zac closed the door and put the baby back on the crib.
"Laura is not a simple woman. Keep an eye on her."
"I know. I've known it since she stood up happily to be the hostess last time." Hearing that, Essie
frowned slightly. The conflict between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hadn't been settled yet,
and the open strife and secret strife between her and her sister-in-law had begun again. It could be
said that there was a tiger at the front door, and a wolf at the back door.
"It doesn't matter. She is just a grasshopper and can't make big waves." Seeing her worried face, Zac
comforted her at once.
But Essie didn't think so. It was obvious that she had allied with Mary. Even if Mary had the idea of
giving up fighting with her and was instigated by Laura, they might have high morale again.
"Forget it. I will just move according to the situation." She sighed.
In the apartment, Eva was also facing a new round of criticism from Elizabeth.
This time, Elizabeth made a request to her to quit the entertainment circle after marriage. She
deliberately chose to give her a surprise when Vinton was not around, so that she had no time to call
for reinforcements.
"It's normal for a female star in the entertainment circle to marry a rich man, but everyone chooses to
quit the entertainment circle after marriage and take care of their husband and children. I hope you can
do the same. Although I don't think you and Vinton are a bad match, I have no choice since he chose
you. The entertainment circle is too chaotic. Our Xu family is a rich family, and we pay great attention to
the family style and reputation. Whether you are shooting or performing, you have to show up in public,
which will have a bad impact. Quitting the entertainment circle is my last request for you. I hope you
can agree. "
Elizabeth changed her tone. She was no longer as sharp and mean as usual, but very euphemistic.
However, her attitude was still very tough. It was not to discuss with Eva, but to order her. And she was
sure that Eva would not agree.
A gust of anger rose from the chest of Eva. This old fox came up with this idea to force her. It was too
cruel. She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. "Mrs. Xu, I have proved my innocence.
Even if the entertainment circle is complicated, I am not contaminated. I joined the entertainment circle
because I like acting. Being an actress is just a profession, and you are discriminating against me. "
"Vinton insists on marrying you regardless of his family's objection. It's already a sacrifice. If you really
care about Vinton and love him, you should make a sacrifice for him. Besides, it's not a bad deal for
you to be the daughter in law of our family at home and take care of your husband and children,"
Elizabeth said slowly.
Eva picked up the ice tea on the table and took a big sip. Scum Jim always said that she had a simple
mind, developed limbs, and knew nothing about change. Today she had to calm down, and she must
calm down, so as not to let Elizabeth have the upper hand.
"Mrs. Xu, I have discussed with Vinton. I will work for a few more years after marriage and quit the
entertainment circle when I am thirty years old. So you don't have to worry."
"It's inevitable that you have physical contact with actors when you are filming in the entertainment
circle. This is not allowed in our Xu family. I have discussed with Mr. Baron and Mrs. Vicki in advance
about your request to quit the entertainment circle. They also agreed. If you don't accept it, we can't
agree you to marry Vinton. " Elizabeth sneered.
With a sneer, Eva said, "Even the rich clans may not be as strict as you said. They did not always value
reputation so much, right? Otherwise, how could those people still stay at home without being soaked
in pig cages! "
Elizabeth's face turned red in an instant, and anger was swaying in her eyes. She knew clearly who
Eva was talking about. If she didn't have evidence and denied it, how could Baron and Mrs. Vicki let her
go?
"Eva, don't think you can do whatever you want with the support of Essie. I'm the mother-in-law of the
Xu family, and I have the final say."
