Arya turned to look at her hand and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
Bridget's hand was severely scalded, but she was exceptionally calm. "Arya, this is a bowl of boiling soup."
Today, Jasper's every move really stimulated her. At first, he didn't want to get married. But because of Arya, he agreed to it. Today, at the dinner table, he expressed his concern about Arya on regardless in the high-profile occasion. Jasper meant to upset her.
Daisy could not sit still and urged, "Hurry to the hospital."
Bridget did not move but looked at Arya. "Arya."
She looked hurt. "I hope you can treat Xavier well. Don't be half-hearted."
Arya pursed her lips tightly. "I know."
She stood there calmly.
She had never done it. If Xavier didn't believe her, she had nothing to say.
Bridget endured the pain in her hand and forced a smile. "I know, Arya, you must not have done it on purpose, and I won't care, because you are Xavier's woman."
Arya didn't seem to understand what she meant, and her expression was faint. "You should go and have your hand treated. Scalds can leave scars."
Daisy couldn't help but get angry. "Jasper, hurry up and take her to the hospital!"
Jasper looked at Arya as if he was laughing at her and asking her whether Xavier was a good husband.
At a time, he didn't even stand up and say a word for her.
At the same time, he felt sad. Since there was a distance between them, He didn't even have the right to care about her.
"Jasper, take Bridget to the hospital now." Seeing that Jasper was so apathetic about it, Mr. Jones was also unhappy.
Bridget reached out to grab Jasper's hand, but he dodged. "Let's go."
Bridget's expression froze. She was annoyed with Jasper, but she did not show it on her face.
Jasper and Bridget left, and the dining room quieted down.
No one could eat.
Daisy asked coldly, "What's going on?"
Arya saw Bridget deliberately pour the soup on her own hand. 'If she told the truth, would others believe her?'
They were all her family.
Arya lowered her eyes slightly. "I don't know why the soup fell on her hand."
She glanced at Xavier secretly. His expression was so calm that Arya could not detect a single trace of emotion.
He didn't say a word from beginning to end.
Daisy couldn't bottle up her anger. "You don't know? There were just the two of you there. You don't know why did the soup fall on her hand? She said she didn't blame you. Why didn't you even say a word of apology? Indeed, you were once imprisoned. And you haven't changed even if you are released. I was really crazy to let you in."
Daisy was extremely disappointed with Arya. She had originally thought that when Arya became part of the family, she would try to accept Arya. After all, she was Ryan's mother.
But today...
Daisy was getting furious.
"You go back now."
Xavier, who had not said anything, finally spoke. His eyes slowly fell on Arya.
Arya also looked at him. In fact, at this time, she didn't need Xavier to speak anything for her.
As long as he trusted her. However, she could not see the trust in Xavier's eyes.
Arya silently looked away. Perhaps their relationship was really not that strong. It was not like no matter what the situation was, they could trust each other completely.
Perhaps her confession was just her own wishful thinking.
