Chapter 218
With a benign smile, Alton said, “You can go find a girlfriend and then disgust them.”
Evan said, “I’m still too young. Forget it.”
Vickie pulled Evan by the arm to stop him from talking nonsense.
Vickie opened her mouth, “Not long ago, Tessa wanted to spend a few days in the mansion but came home that very day. How domineering Miss Keith is! She had the nerve to bully a Turner before becoming Mrs. Turner. Tessa doesn’t want to come downstairs now.”
Out of embarrassment, Bryan didn’t tell his family about the farce caused by the laxative.
Tessa felt ashamed to tell the Turner family of the reason for her coming home so soon. Vickie didn’t know the inside story but insisted that Finley had bullied Tessa.
Finley burst into laughter.
Tessa had invited humiliation herself.
“Finley looks cheerful and approachable. I don’t think she was rude to Tessa. Vickie, think twice. before
you open your mouth.” Connor spoke up for Finley.
Bryan calmly sat down on the sofa with Finley in his arms. Then, he told a servant to bring Finley at glass of coconut juice that she liked to drink.
He was ready for the coming dispute.
Finley drank the coconut juice, put down the cup with a smile, and asked, “Is Tessa upstairs? Should I go bring her downstairs?”
“She doesn’t want to see you,” Vickie said sharply.
Finley raised her eyebrows calmly. “Doesn’t she want to see me? Or, she feels ashamed to see me.”
“What do you mean?” Vickie raised her voice, and her attitude turned cold.
