My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 359

Chapter 359 I Won't Have It

Jessica jolted and turned around.

Selena smiled to hide her deliberate intent.

Jessica raised her eyebrows, a glint of understanding passing through her eyes as she explained, "You mean the butterfly birthmark on my back? I had it when I was a child, but when I grew up, it slowly faded."

She answered casually, with not a trace of nervousness or doubt, as if she was describing something perfectly normal.

Selena pursed her lips.

"Is that so? What a magical thing, a disappearing birthmark."

Jessica chuckled, "You don't say? But it's not unheard of. After all, it's just pigmentation in the body. It's common medically."

Selena nodded.

"I see, so that's what it is."

The two didn't click with their conversation. After eating, they didn't go back to soak, and returned home after sitting around for a while.

Old man Kawn heard they'd gone out that afternoon and frowned right away realizing it couldn't be anything good.

He was a man, but he knew how those girls thought and felt.

Ever since Jessica had come back, Selena had been cold to her.

With that incident happening last night, Selena had even more reason to ignore her or even mock her.

But she didn't do either and invited her out after lunch?

Wilhelm could smell that something wasn't wrong, so he called Selena to him in secret after the two of them got back.

"You're looking for me, Grandpa?"

Selena walked inside the room, asking respectfully.

Wilhelm was seated on a rocking chair, eyes slightly closed.

Hearing her voice, he opened his eyes and motioned for her to close the door.

Only then did Selena turn around, close the door, and walk over to him.

"Did you need something, Grandpa?"

Wilhelm stared at her, rumbling, "Where'd you take Jessica just then?"

Selena jolted and pursed her lips.

Lowering her head, she said softly, "Nowhere, really. We went to soak in the new hot springs resort."

Wilhelm looked at her dubiously. "Really?"

Selena chuckled self-deprecatingly.

"If you don't believe me, Grandpa, you can ask Jessica. Or are you still worried I'm bullying her?"

Wilhelm's brow furrowed.

After a while, he said, "You don't need to provoke me with that sort of language. She might be back now, but you have an equal place to her in my heart. I raised you from when you were young and never once treated you like you were an adopted granddaughter."

Selena stood there in silence.
