Chapter 56 Finding out Who'd Poisoned Waylon
Hearing the footsteps, the servants who talked ill of Eleanor under a tree immediately stopped.
When they found it was Eleanor and Waylon coming, they looked at Eleanor nervously.
Eleanor also saw Gianna among the four.
A hint of taunt flashed across Gianna's aged face when she saw Eleanor. She was still holding a handful of sunflower seeds and forcefully spat the shells onto the ground after cracking them open. It was like she was deliberately provoking Eleanor.
Eleanor also knew that people would criticize her for that matter. Human beings were always so realistic. When you were poor and had no social status, those who had always looked down on you would trample you like trampling the dirt.
While wealthy people were always fawned over and admired.
"What are you talking about?" Waylon's soft voice sounded cold and gloomy, eerily similar to Sebastian's.
The servants lowered their heads, not daring to answer the question. But Gianna wouldn't miss the chance to show off herself.
"Little Young Master, we were just chitchatting, nothing more. Are you hungry? I'll prepare some food for you," Gianna said with an ingratiating smile. Anyway, she wasn't afraid of them because she thought Waylon would die soon.
Waylon retorted angrily, "Chitchat? She's the hostess of the Moore family while you're our servants. Who do you think you are to discuss her?"
Waylon pointed at Eleanor and continued word by word calmly, "She's my dad's legitimate wife and they've registered the marriage. But who are you? Who do you think you are to speak ill of her behind her back?"
"She rushed out to save her friend last night, but now you're trying to kill her with your mouths. All of you get out! Don't let me see you again!"
The servants, including Gianna, were all taken aback and looked at Eleanor nervously.
Eleanor looked at them calmly. Her son's protection made her feel warm.
Staring at them, she curled up her lips into a faint smile. She who stood under the bougainvillea flowers looked more stunningly beautiful when she smiled like this.
Seeing this, Gianna inexplicably became nervous. She felt like Eleanor was a person crawling out of hell and was looking condescendingly at all beings amidst the blooming flowers on the other shore.
Gianna immediately lost the courage to look into Eleanor's eyes. She begged with her head lowered, "Little Young Master, please let us go this time. We discussed it here after hearing about this from other people."
Waylon still wanted to say something, but Eleanor squatted down and whispered something into his ear, "Baby, I've been observing them for half a month. Gianna is the person who poisoned you before."
A hint of cold light flashed across Waylon's eyes.
He said slowly, "Don't blame me for being rude if I hear you speak ill about her next time."
"Yes, Little Young Master."
How would these servants dare to discuss it again? Gianna brought up the topic and they chatted with her. They could only learn gossip about their employers from others.
Waylon looked at Gianna and said, "Gianna, I want to eat your braised pork ribs tonight. Please make it for me."
Gianna's murky eyes lit up when she heard the words. She immediately replied, "Okay, Little Young Master!"
Her plan would have to be postponed if she couldn't find a chance to poison Waylon again. She wanted Hailey to marry into the family as early as possible so that she could threaten the latter with this matter. In this way, she could get a large sum of money and enjoy her old age.
Waylon suddenly ordered, "Apologize to her."
Gianna was dumbfounded for a while. She then looked at Eleanor and apologized, "Mrs. Moore, I'm sorry." Her tone was still and had no hint of apology.
The other servants also apologized to Eleanor.
Eleanor didn't go hard on her because in her eyes, Gianna would be a dead person soon.
She held up Waylon's hand and left with him.
Watching them walking away, Gianna spat at Eleanor's back and cursed, "B*tch, you will only be able to act so arrogantly for several more days."
She then found a secluded place to call Hailey.
Waylon walked somewhat distractedly. If he told his father about this secret, he would definitely bring Dr. Scott over.
However, Eleanor was Dr. Scott and she was now confined in the manor and couldn't go out.
After thinking over it, he stopped in his tracks and said, "I want to go back."
Eleanor looked down at her son and found he was a bit unhappy. She replied, "Okay. Let's go back."
