Chapter 1216: Chapter 1213: Bai Shao’s Plan
"Honey, calm down!!" Juliette Carter was startled and quickly went to support Jefferson White, "Edward is our only son, the entire White Family will rely on him in the future. How can you be so angry with him?"
"You dare! You still have the nerve to speak!" Jefferson’s cold, fierce gaze shifted from Edward to his wife, filled with rage, "Juliette, tell me! Can I not be angry?!"
"Why did you swap our daughter back then..."
"Ella has been cherished by me for twenty years, she’s closer than my own..."
"Tell me, what exactly happened back then, what did you do to our biological daughter?" Despite his anger, Jefferson softened his tone when speaking to Juliette, the woman he loved deeply, and whose cold silence had pained him for so long.
"No...Back then! I don’t know!" She couldn’t admit that their daughter had "died" in the hospital.
She can’t say it!
If she’s going to hide it, she’ll hide it completely.
"Honey, I’m not feeling well." Being the woman by his side for decades, she understood her husband’s temper well. Men are alike; women need to know how to utilize their strengths. Juliette was once the respected Miss of the Carter Family, knowledgeable and graceful, Jefferson still loved her.
"Where are you uncomfortable?"
Juliette: "I’m a bit dizzy, I’ll go upstairs to rest..."
"Alright, alright." Jefferson immediately looked at the housekeeper, "Quickly call the doctor." After saying that, he escorted his wife upstairs.
Before leaving, he didn’t forget to give a cold glare at Edward; this time, young man, you’re lucky!!
He rarely gets so angry!
But considering his wife’s discomfort...
He’ll let it go, for now!
Edward remained seated on the sofa, glancing at the stairway entrance, noticing his father’s careful hand on his mother’s waist, showing obvious concern.
In a subtle way, Edward seemed to be fed a handful of public affection.
Watching his parents’ reactions...
He believes his plan...
The plan seems poised for success. freewebnovёl.ƈom
This plan, how meticulously he schemed it.
Everything is still proceeding as planned. freёwebnovel.com
"Eldest Young Master, your clothes are soaked." The maid approached with concern, "Why didn’t you avoid it earlier?"
Edward ignored her: "I’m going upstairs to take a shower."
...
Eva Nightingale visited Phoenix City for the first time.
Indeed, it lives up to its name, very luxurious here.
The car stopped in front of a large villa in a wealthy district; Eva looked out through the car window, seeing the circular archway with a stone tablet beside it, engraved with large characters: White Estate.
Just looking at that gate felt majestic; the style here is vastly different from Eastern Europe, where castles lean towards a Gothic, darker style.
"This is the White Family." Lucas Knight looked over and said to her, "The White Family has been allied with our family for a century." Simple words, depicting the strong relationship between the two families.
Eva: "Our family?"
Lucas: "Yes."
Eva: "Boss, you..." Did you forget we’re in a contract marriage? To put it simply, it’s just an act, both benefiting from what they need. Why is he so immersed in it?
"Sir, Young Madam, we have arrived." Harry North politely opened the car door.
Eva stood up, bending down to exit the car, already dressed in a sapphire blue gown for tonight’s banquet.
After stepping out, her feet touched the red carpet.
The long gown’s hem shimmered as it spread out like the red carpet beneath, the waistline cinched very tightly.
