Even After Death

Brent concocted something simple for Jacqueline.

She tooka spoonful of it and suddenly swept the bowl off the table.

"What the hell is this? Is this even edible?" Leia slapped her.

"You should be grateful that you have something to eat.

You're not in the position to be picky." Jacqueline growled, "Leia Miller, I'm warning you, Olivia's life is in my hands now.

If you don't treat me well, I'll kill her!" That was her only yet useful bargaining chip.

Brent, who didn't know much about curses, reined in his anger.

"Ms. Fordham, as you can see, this village is isolated.

The villagers have never interacted with the outside world.

This is what they eat every day.

The rice you looked down on is the corps they cultivated with their sweat.

"There are no snacks or gourmet food here.

Even if you ask for something better, the best cook here won't be able to make it." Jacqueline had observed how backward the village was and knew that he had a point.

She suppressed her fury.

"Fine.

Make me fried eggs.

They should at least have eggs, don't they?" "Ts this a restaurant to you? Do you think you're the young lady of the Fordham family?" Kelvin was losing it. Brent pulled him.

"Don't provoke her.

Find some eggs and ask someone to make them." Kelvin was livid, but he couldn't do anything.

He had to put up with Jacqueline's tantrum for Olivia's sake.

Jacqueline looked at Brent.

After spending some time with them, she knew their character enough.

Brent was clearly the most mature one out of the bunch.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

She requested, "Untie me.

Tying me up is bad for blood circulation.

I wonder if it'll affect Olivia if my hands are disabled.

Don't blame me if something happens to her because of this.

My life is worthless, but she's different.

"She's Mason's granddaughter, the precious young lady of the Fordham family, and Ethan's wife.

Though it's a win to sacrifice my life to claim hers." The triggered Leia raised her hand, wanting to slap Jacqueline again.

Jacqueline was the most shameless person she had ever met.

She orchestrated everything to ruin someone else's family, but she didn't feel guilty about it! She was even proud of her achievement! How disgusting! "Calm down, Ms. Miller," Brent cooed.

Leia shut her eyes and put her hand down.

"She's a calculating one.

Don't untie her.

If she escapes, things won't look good for us." "We shall think about it later." He couldn't decide on this.

They had to wait for Ethan.

Willow walked out of the room.

Brent gazed at her.

The girl had grown taller.

The only thing that didn't change was that pair of green eyes.

They were void of emotions.

She came up to Jacqueline, who was sizing her up.

Knowing that Willow was Olivia's daughter, Jacqueline snorted.

"Monster! You can't speak, and your eyes are green.

Are your genes mutated?" Leia couldn't help it anymore.

"Are you out of your mind? She's just a four-year-old! Be nice!" She started to bulldoze her way toward Jacqueline.

Willow gestured for Leia to calm down, and Brent stopped Leia as well.

Jacqueline was acting weird.

It seemed like she was trying to provoke them.

But why? 1 "What are you looking at, you mon-" Before Jacqueline could finish her words, Willow suddenly pinched her mouth to open it wide. Something went into her mouth before Jacqueline realized it.
