Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 177

Since their chances of being together was close to impossible, her only hope was that he could find a woman who could truly love him and make him happy.

While lost in thought, she suddenly heard Ivy's voice ringing in the room. Ivy asked with a mopey face, "Daisy, which one of us is more beautiful in your eyes? Me and Christina?"

"Both of you are beautiful in different ways," Daisy answered as she scratched her head.

When Ivy heard this, she wrinkled her nose and thought, 'What kind of answer is that.'

She tried to look for several photos of Christina from her phone. After a few moments, she displayed them in front of Essie's face and said, "Sister-in-law, you're Hanson's junior classmate, so you should know what kind of girls he's into. Can you take a look at her photo and try to see which one of us Hanson would prefer?"

Just right when Ivy finished her words, Valery's voice could suddenly be heard as she walked down the stairs. "You're definitely asking the right person. Of course out of everyone, she knows Hanson the best. However, if you want to attract a man like Hanson, you have to become a woman like Essie. If you did that, I'm sure Hanson would fall in love with you easily." She covered her mouth pretending that she slipped and let out a mysterious laugh. Now that she got leads on Essie, she wouldn't stop until she was able to teach her a valuable lesson.

Essie glanced at her with a frigid expression and said, "As long as you keep your mouth shut, no one will know that you're dumb."

"You're so fierce! I'm so scared!" Valery mocked while she held her arms and pretended to tremble. She continued, "Don't you feel guilty? Are you trying to stop me from speaking?"

"Oh, Valery. I'm talking to my sister-in-law about important matters. Can you please try not to mess around?" Ivy interrupted with a peevish expression on her face. She knew very well that Valery and Essie did not get along well together. So, she didn't bother to take Valery's words seriously.

"I am just speaking the truth. Your Hanson and Essie are..." In the middle of her sentence, a low, echoing voice came from upstairs and said, "Aren't you going to the hospital for prenatal check-ups today? Cut the crap, Valery!"

She looked behind her and looked straight into Zac's eyes. There was an angry look in his eyes that clearly implied that it was a warning. She knew if she said another word, she would be condemned appropriately.

Valery couldn't help but keep her mouth shut, but now she was trembling for real this time.

From outside the hall, Mary walked in and sternly said, "Zac you should accompany Valery. It is a husband's duty to join his wife to the hospital for prenatal check-ups."

She intentionally called Valery his wife to prove a point. In her eyes, it was her son and Valery who were the real couple, while Essie was just a temporary home wrecker who shouldn't even be living in their mansion.
