A bad woman?
Remy tumed to look at Holly. He really didn’t think of her badly. She was just thinking too much.
“Holly, we’re friends. Before you did all those things, I’ve never thought of you negatively. Don’t dwell on it.” Holly Stared at him skeptically.
If she’d be unable to destroy Westley’s marriage with Gabrielle, then Remy wouldn’t see her any differently. But if she were to push through her plans, it would be another story.
“I’mn relieved you can still treat me the same way.” Holly smiled meekly.
No one could ever know what she was thinking, not even Remy.

Hülly showed interest in her cousin’s lover. She tried her best to keep her hands to herself. But now that Helena Was gone, she was thinking of taking her chances
“Gabrielle, I really want to stay here with you. Everything’s so comly and the food Grandma Miley cooks are the tastiest!” Mia sighed, taking Gabrielle’s hand. “Why did my brother want to leave so suddenly anyway? Oh, I know! Will you cook for me when you get back to the
“Of course,” Gabrielle said with a smile. “Actually, we’re going back tomorrow, SO we can meet the soonest.”
“Then you and Mr. Morris can enjoy a bit. mone of the quiet life here. I’ll see you in Antawood.” Mia’s eyes sparkled, then she gave a warm glance at Westley. “Mr. Morris, you better take care of Gabrielle well. Don’t bully her too much and help out with the housework.

After Mia left, Gabrielle helped Miley
clean up the room, while Westley went to the kitchen to wash the dishes
“Grandma, you live alone and you have to do everything by yourself. Isn’t it tiring? Gabrielle asked, mopping the floor.
Miley lifted her face from wiping the table and smiled at her. “It’s not so hard, I only have a lot of things to do now because I have visitors.”
Gabrielle nodded, looking apologetic. If their group weren’t here, Miley wouldn’t have been burdened with so many things.
“Gabrielle, it’s fine. I’m glad you’re here.” Miley smiled. “You kids give me so much energy. I hope you drop by more often.”
“Then, we’ll do that.” Gabrielle said, standing straight to lean on the map handle. “You can also come and stay with us in Antawood.”
Gabrielle couldn’t bear the thought of Miley alone in the countryside. After all, there was no one to take care of her. If something happened to her, they wouldn’t know in time.

Back in the old house, Miley wasn’t able to do much. They had servants and her children didn’t want her to do anything. She couldn’t even plant flowers.

But a little tinge of reluctance was eating at her mind. She had suffered so much in this marriage, paying for her brother’s debts. She steeled her heart, standing on her own two feet and turned her pain into power. Why should she be abandoned in the end?
“I understand what you mean. I know you and Westley just got married, and you didn’t even had the chance to know each other to begin with. But look at my generation, most couples only met during the wedding day. People got married first and eventually fell in love.
See, you can get to know Cach other for the rest of your lives together, just like your grandfather and 1.” Miley stroked Gabrielle’s am, hoping that she could See how good Westley was if she gave him a chance.
