Chapter 163 Ransacking the House
Sherry prepared a pot of tea. “Have some tea, Miss Fox She bent down and carefully poured a cup of tea.
She felt as if she were in the presence of a queen.
Everyone was puzzled, but no one dared to ask why she had come. They could barely even breathe.
“You all know that your madam is staying at Repulse Bay, right?” Jennifer asked casually as she looked around the room.
The staff didn’t seem to be aware of that, except for Gael.
Jennifer sipped some tea and set the cup down. “She’s actually a doctor and she’s currently researching a means to treat my injury. I came here today to gather her things.”
Everyone looked at Jennifer.
“She won’t be staying for just a day or two,” Jennifer continued. “It might take up to a few months or even a few years, so I’ll have to trouble you to pack up all her possessions, Mr. Swanson. I’ll be taking them back to Repulse Bay with me.”
“Yes, Miss Fox,” Gael responded with a cordial smile.
“I’m going upstairs too,” Jennifer added. “I’m coming with you” She wasn’t going to allow a single item of Melinda’s to remain in this house.
Gael brought the household staff upstairs and Jennifer tagged along.
When Jennifer found the walk-in closet filled with women’s clothing, her eyes blazed with fury.
Every single article of clothing came from a luxury brand. At a glance, she estimated the contents of the closet to be worth over 15 million!
“Mr. Fox prepared all of these for Madam, Miss Fox, Gael reported. “Even if we pack everything up, she won’t be able to wear everything. Should we just pack a portion of it?”
“No.” Jennifer looked at Gael and she commanded in a low voice, “I’m taking everything.”
Gael was a little conflicted. It was going to be a lot of work!
“She needs to have options in case she attends an event of some kind,” Jennifer explained. “I have four walk-in closets. There’s more than enough room for all these clothes.”
“Understood.” Gael had no choice but to instruct the household staff to do as Jennifer said.
Eight of them got started with the packing.
Meanwhile, Gael and Jennifer entered the master bedroom.
As soon as Jennifer spotted the large, comfortable bed, she thought about her son engaging in bouts of passion with that woman and felt her chest tightening!
This should’ve been Monica’s bed!
Nevertheless, she didn’t have any outward shows of emotion in front of Gael. She looked around the room.novelxo.com fast update
Ransacking the House
before she started rummaging through the drawers which were filled with a woman’s possessions, including makeup and jewelry.
“Bring a bag,” she instructed.
Gael swiftly passed her a bag and she proceeded to dump the contents of the drawers into the bag as if she were tossing out the trash.
Gael began to get suspicious. This doesn’t feel like an ordinary move. It feels like she’s ransacking the place!
However, he couldn’t disobey Jennifer. All he could do was stand and watch.
When Jennifer spotted the agreement in a different drawer, she picked it up and skimmed through it.
Her eyes were immediately drawn to the figure of 150 million!
This agreement clearly states that Stanley was going to give Melinda 150 million if she manages to treat me!
Jennifer stared at the woman’s signature at the bottom. Her eyes flashed coldly.
He’s been conned!
Not only did this prove how terrifying Melinda was, but it also revealed how important she was to Stanley…
Jennifer had mixed feelings.
She calmly put away the agreement. I won’t let that conniving woman step foot into Emerald Harbor ever again!
Back in Navelie, Arunia.
The sun shone brightly amid the clear blue sky.
Over at the most famous castle estate, a group of people were engaging in one of the upper society’s favorite pastimes, horseback riding…
The bodyguards accompanied Samuel and Pamela as they rode the horses. There were also a few other children of similar age. Everyone spoke in Brundelian.
The children were having a blast. They made new friends-all remarkable in their own ways.
Stanley sat in the lounge and watched the children through the glass wall. His eyes were filled with a father’s adoration. He began missing their mother again.
In all his 38 years of life, he had never missed a person the way he missed her.
Monica was sitting beside him, but she kept glancing at him from time to time. Even though he treated her with polite indifference, she felt thrilled to be able to be this close to him.
All of a sudden, the sound of Stanley’s phone ringing broke the silence of this perfect moment.
Monica saw him leave and she secretly followed him. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Outside the lounge, blades of grass fluttered in the light breeze. The buildings in the distance looked like a painting.

Stanley stood by the pool with one hand in his pocket and answered the call. “Yes, Mr. Swanson?”
