Chapter 226 The Commotion

As for Cressida, she ran into the living room and happened to see Elodia going into the kitchen. Cressida stopped in her tracks and silently hid in a corner.

From her angle, Cressida could see Elodia looking for something to eat in the kitchen.

Cressida’s eyes turned red with jealousy.

Elodia was just a village girl who grew up in a poor village named Black Mountain Village.

What right did Elodia have to be so free and happy in the Lockwood family and change her poor destiny completely while Cressida could only please everyone here?

The fear, uneasiness, and jealousy in Cressida’s heart grew crazily like wild grass.

Cressida suddenly thought of a brilliant idea.

That was to frame Elodia.

If Cressida insisted that the words in the recording were said by Elodia, then the unlucky one would be Elodia, and Cressida would be safe.

Cressida’s eyes flashed with malice as she walked toward the kitchen.

Elodia had no choice but to enter the kitchen because she wanted to eat pickles.

Elodia saw pickles on the dining table this morning and thought there must be still some left in the fridge. Elodia carefully opened the refrigerator and saw the sealed pickles. Elodia’s eyes lit up. She took the jar out and opened the lid, planning to eat some.

A thoughtful look appeared in Elodia’s eyes. Elodia felt that she should buy a pregnancy test kit.

Elodia remembered that her period this month had already been delayed for half a month, but she, who was careless, did not notice it.

Elodia felt that there was a high chance that she was pregnant.

Ever since Elodia gave birth to Kieran, she had never gotten pregnant. This made Kim, who already disliked Elodia, dislike her even more and often made trouble for her.

Elodia pursed her lips. Elodia did not know if it was good or bad if she was really pregnant with a second child.

Elodia deeply understood a principle. When a person hated her, no matter how well she did, that person would pick out countless bad things about her.

Even if Elodia was pregnant with a second child, Kim was just one less reason to pick on Elodia.

In its place, Kim would even pick on Elodia’s other flaws.

“Elodia.”

Cressida’s voice sounded behind Elodia.

Elodia was shocked. Her hand trembled and the fork fell.

Cressida sneered, and a trace of disdain appeared in her eyes. Cressida bent down to pick up the chopsticks and said, “Elodia, look at you. You’re so timid.”

Elodia looked at the fork she handed over and silently reached out to take it.

Cressida glanced at pickles on the dining table and chuckled. “Elodia, you came to the kitchen just to eat pickles secretly? What kind of habit is this? I heard that you, country bumpkins, grew up eating pickles.”

Elodia forced a smile awkwardly and said, “No…”

“Elodia, don’t explain anymore. Let’s go. I’ll take you out for a walk.”

Cressida pulled Elodia away without any explanation.

Cressida exerted a lot of strength this time. Elodia struggled, but Cressida, a pampered little girl, with her hand on Elodia’s arm did not move at all.
