CHAPTER 702 IT'S YOU AGAIN

Mandy pretended not to hear what she said, but she was very interested in Jacqueline.

This woman must be special since Henry took her as his childhood sweetheart.

Nana replied with a tone full of disdain to Jacqueline," She's the daughter of the Conrad family. She was feminine and soft, but I didn't like her very much."

Mandy lowered her eyes and asked, "Where is she now? We haven't seen her since we came back."

"Jacqueline?" Nana put away her disdain and sighed, " She's dead!"

Mandy was surprised. "Dead?”

She was really surprised.

She had planned to put this person on her rivals' list, but she didn't expect that this person to be dead.

Mandy was curious. "How did she die?”

Nana held her forehead. "She broke the law and got the death penalty.”

Mandy gasped, "Death... death penalty?"

Nana explained, "Yes, but I'm not sure about the details. My grandpa found out that it had something t o do with Henry's wife. It seemed that Jacqueline wanted to kill her, so she was arrested and sentenced t

o death."

Mandy didn't speak anymore. She lowered her head and thought about something.

She was sentenced to death just because she wanted t o kill Miss Smith. It was absolutely impossible to say that Miss Smith didn't manipulate it.

It seemed that Miss Smith wasn't as simple.

If she was a simple person, how could she let Mandy pay for the whole dress because of a small stain? This kind of person wasn't simple-she was vicious.

Even if Jacqueline wanted to kill her, she wasn't killed at that time. Since she wasn't killed, she could have just reported to the police to arrest her, but she had to kill her. Wasn't she vicious?

Mandy said while pointing to the flowers in front of her, "Alright, Nana. Let's not talk about this anymore. Look at this, this place is so beautiful."

Nana looked over and her irritable mood improved slightly. “Yes, it's very beautiful."

Mandy whispered, "Yes, if only I could live here too."

Nana didn't hear her clearly. "Huh? What did you say?"

Mandy's eyes flashed and she smiled. "It's nothing."

After speaking, she picked a red peony.

Right at this time, Yvonne just had breakfast and took a walk in the garden with Theo. When she saw them, she frowned.

"Sue, those two..."

Sue thought that Yvonne didn't know them, so she introduced them. "The one in green is Master Mae's granddaughter, Nana Mae. The one in a white dress is her friend, Miss Lovett."

Yvonne put Theo down. "I know. I met them last night, but why are they here?"

Sue pointed in the direction of the hall. "Master Mae brought them here."

Yvonne pursed her lips. "Even if Master Mae brought them here, he could have just brought Nana alone.

Why did he bring that woman along?"

Hearing Yvonne's displeasure, Sue noticed something and looked at her. "Madam, is there something wrong with that woman?"

Yvonne smiled. “Both of them have problems. They both fell in love with Henry."

Sue was shocked. "What?"

Yvonne patted her on the shoulder. "But Nana is easy t o deal with. She's stupid, so I didn't keep her in mind. But Mandy Lovette isn't simple. She's like Jacqueline. She looks soft and weak, but her heart is dark and vicious-she's not easy to deal with."

After hearing what Yvonne said, Sue trembled with anger. "Well, these two coquettes are really..." "Alright, Sue. We'll go meet them."

With that, Yvonne took Theo and walked over to Mandy and Nana.

Sue quickly followed.

Mandy saw Yvonne when she walked over.

At the same time, she saw Sue and Theo too.

Mandy's smile froze when he saw that Theo's face looked exactly like Henry's.

Henry had a child?

And he was this big?

Well, he was married. It would be abnormal if he had n o child.

Mandy restrained her feelings and greeted Yvonne with a smile, "Good morning, Mrs. Lancaster."

Yvonne nodded in response.

Nana, who was standing at the side, looked at her and hummed disdainfully without greeting her.

Yvonne didn't care. She didn't even look at her.

Instead, she put her eyes on Mandy. When she looked at the peony in Mandy's hand, her small face became gloomy instantly.

Yvonne asked coldly, "Miss Lovett, who gave you the right to pick the flower?"

After hearing this, Sue quickly looked over. Her face changed when she saw the flower. "Oh God, did you pick the flower?"

Looking at their reaction, Mandy felt a thump in her heart and realized that she might be in trouble.

She looked at the peony in her hand, then at Yvonne. She asked uneasily, "Mrs. Lancaster, am I not allowed t o pick this flower?"

Before Yvonne could answer, Sue said angrily, "Of course, you can't! Do you know how precious the flower in your hand is? It's an endangered species and one pot can cost up to a million dollars."

Mandy’s pupils shrank and her face turned pale." What?”

Nana was startled as well. "Up to a million dollars? How can it be? It's just a flower."

"Just a flower?" Sue sneered, "I've said that these are part of an endangered species and they were Master Lancaster's favorite when he was alive. Our gardeners are extra careful when they take care of them, fearing that they'll hurt them, but both of you picked the flowers so easily. Can you afford to pay?"

Hearing that the flower was Master Lancaster's favorite when he was alive, Nana panicked. "Mandy, we're in trouble."

Mandy's lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything in the end. She just stared at the flower in her hand blankly and felt that it was as heavy as a gold bar and very hot.

Yvonne handed Theo to Sue and stepped forward with a straight face. "Miss Lovett, your ability to make trouble is really an eye-opener to me. You ruined my dress last night and owed me seven figures. Now, you picked such an expensive flower. You're really wealthy."

Mandy said with trembling lips, "I... I didn't mean to..." Content © 2024.

Yvonne sneered, "You didn't do it on purpose? You said the same thing last night. Of course, I believe that you didn't mean it last night, but I don't believe that you don't mean it now. Have you ever seen anyone pick a flower without permission when they go to someone else's house?"

Mandy choked, unable to speak suddenly, "I...."

Yvonne took a deep breath. "This peony pot isn't only a n endangered species, but also the most primitive mother plant. It's difficult to blossom. When Grandpa was alive, he cultivated it for several years before it bloomed and there were only a few flowers. But you, you picked one as soon as you came. You'd better think about how to compensate us."

After speaking, Yvonne saw a servant in front of her and beckoned her to come over.

The maid came to her and greeted her respectfully," Madam."

Yvonne glanced coldly at Mandy and Nana and then said, "Go to the living hall and get the master to come over."

The maid answered and left as ordered, "Okay."

Everyone in the family residence addressed Henry as their master.

They used to address him as Mr. Lancaster, but the title was given to Theo, and Elliot was addressed as the young Mr. Lancaster, so everyone called Henry as the master now.

Mandy's back stiffened and her hand with the peony flower tightened when she heard Yvonne asked Henry to come over.

She looked at Yvonne with red eyes, feeling resentful i n her heart.

How could this woman call Henry over?

What would Henry think of her when he came and saw that she picked the old man's favorite flower?
