A Crazy Wife novel Chapter 74

In the middle of the night, Chester lies in bed reading. Lily's servant comes in and offers tea, "Master, hasn't Madam come back yet?"

Chester raises his head and glances at the wall clock on the wall. It is already midnight.

"It's all so late, and Madam is still not back, she..."

Chester's looks at the servant with a cold look, "You mean that the everyone in this family must come back every day at the time that my mother requires?"

The servant is taken aback for a moment, and said, "After all, our family has a reputation uphold. I am just being cautious."

Chester looks at the servant with a smile and asks rhetorically. "Who is this rule for? Do Rainy and Zander have to follow? What about my father?" A simple sentence that leaves the servant speechless.

Lily has always shown her favour, even towards her children. The whole family can see that her different treatment between the eldest son and the younger son, not to mention to the daughter-in-law. After Hannah marries him, the rules have always been only for her.

"She is an independent person. It is up to her when she is willing to come back. You don't have to treat her like a prisoner. If my mother wants to get her hands on something, it's better to let her take care of Zander so he stops causing trouble outside."

Having said this, Chester glances at the servant, "You can go out now."

The servant looks embarrassed, "Yes sir."

Lily frowns immediately after hearing the report from the servant, "Chester said that?"

"Yes, not a single word is made up by me."

"Why is he so protective of Hannah so suddenly. I thought he didn’t like her?"

"Isn't it a good thing that the young master and his wife have a good relationship?"

Lily seems to be weighing the pros and cons, and asks the servant after a while, "How do you think Chester treats Hannah?"

The servant is stunned for a moment and hesitates, "The young master never wants anyone to be close to him, but since Madam came back, she has always slept in the young master's room, doing his washing up, and also, last weekend night the young master seems to be upset when Madam came back late, and the two of them quarrels."

"Quarrel?" Lily thinks that she misheard, "You said Chester quarrels with her?"

Although she doesn't know much about her son, she sees his usual behaviour and habits very clearly. He doesn't even speak loudly at home, and he is even more taciturn after his leg injury and shows no interest at all towards everything, let alone quarrelling with others.

"Yes," the servant coughs unnaturally, "He seemed to be jealous, because Madam didn't take him with him when she went out, and he didn't eat much for dinner that day before he asks his wife to go back to the room with him."

Lily stares straight at her, thinking that wonders never cease.

She arranged such a marriage for her son in the past to provide psychological comfort. The doctor Chester judged that he is disabled for life, but she still had a glimmer of hope of his having children. But no prestigious family in their right mind would let their daughter marry Chester. That’s why Hannah is chosen. To be honest, she didn’t like Hannah. She is cowardly and submissive, with no personality at all, so after the marriage, she became more and more indifferent to her. Lily has regretted a lot choosing Hannah.

But now it seems that Hannah has changed a lot after prison. What has gotten into her?

"Tell the kitchen to make two lunches tomorrow morning."

Lily thinks for a while, then suddenly orders the servant,

"By the way, there is still good cubilose in the warehouse. Let's see if there are any replenishing herbed ready. I will make a medicated soup myself tomorrow morning."

The servant is puzzled, "Madam, what are you doing?"
