chapter 1810
Inside a luxurious room...
Waverly sat before the makeup desk and looked at the photo on her phone darkly, one that displayed how Anthony lovingly brought drinks to Charmine's lips.
Her cold, red lips curled into a bitter smirk as she scoffed.
Charmine went to a bar on their second day of marriage? Would a wife act this way?
How irresponsible. She was too wild to receive Anthony’s love! Why was Anthony so protective of Charmine?!
Waverly glared at Charmine in the photos, her eyes filled with rage as she cursed her.
That cheap woman!
She could have been the one Anthony loved and adored, the woman admired by everyone. 2
Her, Waverly D'Cruz! >
Charmine snatched everything away from her!
Waverly was so triggered that her head started to hurt.
She massaged her temples, and after a moment, she pressed her phone and logged out of Tweeter. She then sent a text.
[Don't be too stupid!]
At the Bailey mansion.
Annabel had been an approachable character even as she had moved in. She never asked the maids to work for her, either.
In fact, when she had time, she would even help the maids to do some chores.
When she saw that the maids were busy, she would buy fruits and drinks for them.
With that, all the maids adored her and became her friends.
Susan had just woken up from an afternoon nap. Upon noticing that her face was rather puff-looking, she then decided to walk around her garden to depuff her face.
As she walked, she came before the machines. Just as she was about to stretch, she suddenly saw...
A black worm as big as a finger, crawling up her pant leg disgustingly.
"Aargh!"
Utterly terrified was the pale Susan that she screamed her lungs out, and she vehemently shook her leg to try and shake the worm off.
No matter how hard she shook, however, the worm seemed stuck and did not get off. It even continued crawling up her pant leg.
"Aaahh!"
Mortified, Susan picked up a stick and tried to swat it off. However, before she could do so, she was too intimidated by the disgusting look of the worm and dropped the stick.
She shut her eyes and dared not look. She did continue shaking her leg, though, having lost all thoughts of keeping her composure.
Not far away, Annabel was trimming the plants. She instantly scrambled and followed the source of the scream. When she saw how pale Susan seemed, she asked worriedly, "Madam, what happened?"
"W—Worm!"
Susan finally opened her eyes and shakily pointed her finger at her pant leg. Seeing the worm revoltingly crawling up her leg still, she shut her eyes and shrieked, "Quick, get it off me!"
"I'll do that right now, Madam," coaxed Annabel, "don't be scared."
Annabel instantly reached out to take the worm away. She tossed it on the ground and crushed it with her foot.
Annabel looked at Susan and said, "Madam, it's done."
Susan opened her eyes and looked at her pant leg.
Annabel even took out wet tissues to clean the area of her pants that the worm crawled up. "The worm's crushed now, Madam. It probably fell off the tree, given that it's springtime
now."
Upon seeing the worm indeed crushed, Susan patted her chest and slowly exhaled before looking at Annabel, her usually cold eyes seemingly gentle as she did.
Annabel looked weak, yet she was so brave?
Susan then noticed that Annabel had an apron on. She frowned and asked, "Why are you working as a maid?"
Annabel explained politely, "I was bored, so I came here to move around."
A maid, who happened to pass nearby, overheard this and could not help chiming in, "Madam, Ms. Annabel is so kind. She’d help us do some chores from time to time. She’d even get us fruits."
Annabel looked at the maid and said gently, "Oh, you, always so talkative."Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
