My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 631

Chadwick carefully set his wine glass on the table. "Mom, could you please refrain from making such comments on a day like today? Let's approach this gently if you have reservations about Esther becoming your daughter-in-law."

Selene's sharp gaze met Chadwick's, and eventually, she relented. "I heard you recently donated your liver, which is commendable. Starting today, you're welcome at the Pendletons. Don't worry. I'll guide you as if you were my own daughter."

Observing Selene's change in tone, Liora respectfully inquired, "Selene, Mandy is also getting married. How about teaching both Esther and Mandy together?"

Selene replied mockingly, "What can I teach her? How to deal with her husband's mistress?"

Liora managed a forced smile.

Back when Mandy was known as Liliane, she frequently taunted Esther as the illegitimate love child. Now, experiencing this constant ridicule herself, Mandy understood the pain it caused.

"Mother, if I had a choice—"

Liora held Mandy's hand, speaking in a hushed voice. "Selene, Mandy calls you 'mother'. You can teach her too. I haven't achieved much in my life, and Mandy is my only daughter. I hope she can live the rest of her life happily."

What Liora truly wished for was Mandy to marry outside the Pendletons. With the Pendletons' support, Bradley must consider their influence in all his actions.

Selene glanced at Mandy. Seeing that Mandy hadn't caused any trouble in front of her all these years and was now getting married, she finally agreed. "I'll also teach her and show her that there are many paths for a woman in life."

Mandy's hand throbbed from Liora's pinching. She softly told Selene, "Thank you, Mother."

Who in the world wanted to learn how to be someone's wife?
