Uncovering My Wife's Secrets (Annalise and Julian) novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78 She Was Just A Tool

In the house where Alexander Parks and Tony Parks lived.

It was also brightly lit on the inside.

Abigail Barton personally brewed tea and very virtuously handed it to her father-in-law, Tony Parks, and mother-in-law, Layla Ziegler. “Dad, Mom, have some tea.”

Layla Ziegler was very dissatisfied with Abigail Barton.

She had high expectations for her son. She felt that even if he could not marry girls like Sybil Xander or Lianne Blake, he could at least marry a rich girl from one of the top ten families of Jadeborough.

In the end, her son went to Horington and married Abigail Barton, an ordinary woman.

Her son praised Abigail Barton from head to toe, and Tony Parks also commended her.

In addition, Abigail Barton’s identity was special. She was Annalise Barton’s biological cousin.

Comparatively, Abigail Barton’s background was better than Annalise Barton’s. Abigail’s education level was also higher, and she beat Annalise Barton in all aspects.

Hence Layla Zeigler reluctantly accepted Abigail Barton. At the very least, it was satisfying to defeat Annalise Barton with Abigail Barton!

Yet, instead of the scenario she was anticipating, she was thoroughly embarrassed. She was so angry and too ashamed to face anyone.

To make things worse, a close friend asked her, “Layla, Alexander has such good conditions. Why did he

I

aya Horington girl? The girl I introduced to you back then was also not bad. She even came back with an

education from a world-renowned university.”

Layla was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

Even looking at Abigail Barton then annoyed Layla.

Seeing that Abigail was pouring tea to gain her favor, Layla said coldly, “Leave it.”

If not for her son and husband, she would have chased Abigial out immediately. How was Abigal worthy of her son?

Abigail Barton knew that the incident that day had upset everyone.

She took the initiative to apologize, “I’m very sorry about what happened today. I didn’t expect to embarrass us by bringing out the Energizing Pill. However, I believe that Annalise Barton isn’t always going to be so lucky. She won’t be able to bring out a jar of Energizing Pills every time.”

Layla Ziegler was furious. She looked up and retorted, “Didn’t you know beforehand that Annalise knew how to write couplets? Didn’t you say she didn’t go to school for a day?”

Alexander Parks chimed in to help Abigail, “Mom, Annalise Barton grew up in the village and had a good relationship with a few old men in the village. It’s normal for her to know how to write couplets.”

For the sake of that matter, he even specially asked for the contact of a Barton family’s distant relative. He personally called to ask about Annalise Barton’s situation.

The distant relative claimed that Annalise moved to the village when she was six. She did not attend school but did a good job in farming. In addition, she had a good relationship with a few bored old men in the village. She probably learned a few words from them and wrote couplets for everyone for free on special

occasions.

“Hmph!” Layla Ziegler glared at her son unhappily, implying that he should not have married a woman from a small place

Alexander Parks smiled and advised, “Mom, the competition between Julian Parks and I isn’t something that can be settled in a day. As you can see, that jar of Energizing Pills was given to Annalise Barton by someone else After this, she won’t have anything to show off anymore.
