A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 326

Looking at Abigail's tender and lovely face, Ashley felt warm in heart.

Janet stood aside and did not dare say a word, because she was just a servant.

Janet raised her head and glanced at Edward secretly. Then she suddenly felt a little flustered.

She didn't expect that Edward would look so dignified.

"Mom, go upstairs to rest first. I've already asked the servants to prepare dinner." After arriving at the villa, Cedric looked at Ashley's tired face and said gently.

"Okay." Ashley really wanted to sleep. Maybe it was because she was old, she felt that her body was getting weaker and weaker.

Edward held Ashley in his arms and went back to their room. Abigail held Cedric's legs and asked, "Cedric, is mom ill?"

"Why do you ask this?" Cedric squatted down, touched Abigail's hair and asked.

"Because mom seems very uncomfortable, so I'm thinking whether she is sick or not."

Abigail's words were a little childish, but what she said caught Cedric's attention.

Cedric was a little worried. He picked up Abigail's soft body and said, "Maybe she's just tired." "That's good." Abigail breathed a sigh of relief and yawned, "Cedric, I want Joanna to tell me a story."

"Abigail, Joanna is working in the flower garden now. I can tell you a story."

Seeing that Abigail had been thinking about Joanna, Janet was jealous.

She looked at the Abigail and said with a smile.

Abigail looked at Janet, then shook her head and said, "No, I like Joanna. Cedric, I want Joanna."

"Okay, I'll ask the housekeeper to bring Joanna here." Looking at Abigail who acted like a spoiled child, Cedric said helplessly.

Cedric glanced at Janet. Although Janet was jealous, she did not dare show her jealousy in front of Cedric. She went to the backyard to find Joanna.

When Janet went over, Joanna was trimming plants. Looking at Joanna's slender back, Janet's heart was full of anger.

"Joanna, Abigail wants you to accompany her."

Janet walked to Joanna and said angrily.

However, Joanna did not notice Janet's angry voice. She put down the sprinkling can and wiped her face. But the mud in her hand was smeared on her face, which made her beautiful face dirty.

"Is Abigail looking for me?"

"She wants you to tell her a story." Janet looked at Joanna with disgust. She didn't understand why Abigail liked Joanna so much. Judge from the appearance, she was more beautiful than Joanna.

"I'll be right there." Joanna glanced at Janet and left the garden in a hurry.

Watching Joanna leave, Janet was a little angry and kicked the sprinkling can to the ground.

She wanted to live a wealthy life and wanted everyone to envy her. She didn't want to live a poor life anymore.

"Are they new servants?" When having dinner at night, Ashley looked at Janet and Joanna who were serving Abigail and asked.

Cedric was a little flustered and said, "Yes, I specially hired them to accompany Abigail."

"I see." Seeing Cedric's flustered expression, Ashley was a little confused. Then she smiled and continued to eat.

Cedric let out a sigh of relief when he saw that Ashley didn't ask him more.

They had dinner peacefully.

After dinner, Edward was playing with Abigail, so Ashley went to find Cedric. In the pavilion outside the yard, she saw Cedric sitting there and smoking. Cedric looked like Edward so much, his face was exactly the same as that of young Edward.

Looking at Cedric's face, Ashley thought of Edward when he was young.

"Mom, why are you here?" When Cedric noticed that there was someone outside the pavilion, he thought that it was an insensible servant who want to disturb him. When he saw Ashley, he frowned.

He asked in a low voice, stubbed out the cigarette, and walked to Ashley.

Seeing that Cedric was lost in thought, Ashley asked, "What's wrong? Is there something bothering you?"

"No, it's not a big deal." Cedric shook his head and helped Ashley sit on the bench.

Ashley hadn't returned to the Xis for a long time. Looking at the familiar house, she sighed and said, "You and Abigail have grown up, and I'm really old."

"No, you're forever young in my heart." Looking at the white hair on Ashley's head, Cedric said.

"My hairs are already white. Ashe, when did you learn to say such sweet words to make me happy?"

Hearing Cedric's words, Ashley looked at him mischievously and said.

Cedric's face blushed. But Ashley didn't see his expression clearly under the dim light.

"Ashe, it's time for you to get married." Cedric was already 25 years old, and it was time for him to get married.

She wanted to have grandchildren as soon as possible. At least, she wouldn't be relieved until she saw Nacho and Cedric get married.

"I don't want to get married." Cedric frowned in disgust and said coldly.
