“Victoria, you’re truly my best friend!” Seeing Victoria agree, Alice immediately brightened up with a smile, her tone dripping with flattery. “Victoria, I’m looking forward to your good news!”
“Alright, Alice, I’ll do my
After Victoria ended the call, Lionel appeared beside her, frowning slightly. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
“Ms. Olson, the Robertson family’s issues have nothing to do with you. It’s best if you don’t get involved.”
Wilson was currently enchanted by Yvette, so he was naturally protective of her. Moreover, Yvette was from the Murray family, and Jacob was famously protective of his own.
Hearing this, Victoria bit her lip and hesitated. “But Alice is my friend,” she said. “She’s already in such a bad situation; I can’t just sit and do nothing. I can’t watch her be forced to marry Mr. Luiz, or it will ruin her
life.”
Upon seeing her in distress, Lionel’s gaze softened slightly, “Ms. Olson, you’re just too kind…”
“Anyone would feel the same way.” Victoria’s clear, doe–like eyes softened. “Besides, Alice is my best friend!”
Seeing her being so innocent, Lionel’s gaze grew even gentler, but then something seemed to occur to him, and his expression suddenly turned cold.
If Alice, that fool, dared to use Victoria, then he would use Alice to deal with Yvette…
“Wilson, eat more. Try out how my cooking tastes!”
At the dinner table in Murray Manor, Yara kept serving Wilson more portions of food. She was treating Wilson so warmly as if he was her own son.
This made Jacob, Ashton and Sean increasingly displeased. They found Wilson more and more irritating, but they had no choice but to suppress their frustration.
“Mrs. Murray, your cooking is excellent. I really like it.”
Wilson wore a faint smile, appearing humble and polite–the kind of younger generation that elders favored. It was completely different from his usual cold and serious demeanor.
Yara was very pleased and increasingly satisfied with her son–in–law. He had looks, an excellent– family background, and, most importantly, her precious daughter liked him!
“If you like it, you should come over often for meals. I’ll cook for you regularly!”
Seeing this, Jacob was on the verge of breaking his spoon from anger. How did Wilson suddenly make Yara like him so much?
Ashton and Sean were also very annoyed, feeling that Wilson would soon take their precious sister away!
By the end of the meal, while Yara was very pleased with Wilson, the Murray family men became even more displeased with him.
“Are you done mooching off the food and drinks? Why don’t you hurry up and leave?”
Seeing that Yara wasn’t paying attention, Jacob didn’t hide his hostility and disgust toward Wilson.
Wilson lazily replied, “Oh Jacob, what do you think would happen if Mrs. Murray heard what you just said?”
“Are you threatening me?”
Jacob was so enraged he gritted his teeth. How had he never noticed before just how shameless Wilson was? It was a shame he thought of him as a brother before!
Seeing the tension between them, Yara quickly came over, fearing they might start a fight.
“What are you two talking about? Why does it look like you’re all in such bad moods?”
Wilson changed his demeanor, becoming humble and polite again in front of Yara.
“Mrs. Murray, it seems like Jacob is a bit unwelcoming. I’ll take my leave for now and visit you another time.”
