CHAPTER 71: THERE WAS MORE TO THE FAMILY
Everyone in the dining hall was surprised about Jayden’s outburst but Juliana felt more embarrassed about how Jayden was displaying his stupidity.
Does he want to tell everyone that he has desires for his brother’s wife?
I was equally shocked that my trick didn’t work on my mother-in-law or even Juliana but Jayden and I looked at him in surprise.
What was going on in that prick’s head? Georgina felt the air around her dropped and she knows that Bradley was mad but what was she supposed to do? She does not know his cousin was a fool.
“I.. mean. I am just surprised about it”Jayden says awkwardly Bradley glared at him and he wished that he was not in that dining hall that morning because the murderous aura Bradley was emanating that time could get him killed without actually using a gun.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
The man was choking him with his deadly aura.
“Jayden, would you behave yourself?” Will Hale reprimanded, glaring at his son and Kate was sad about the bad blood between the father and son.
How are they going to fight as a family if they were all divided?
“I am a married woman so I think a hickey here and there shouldn’t be surprising, “I say laughing dryly trying to soothe the awkward situation because I wasn’t expecting the reaction from Jayden I was, even more trying to irk my mother-in-law and Juliana but I think I thought wrong. Kate glared at me and I was confused because what exactly do I do now?
“Can we stop glaring at each other? “Beatrice says but it looks like what she says fuels these people’s actions. I don’t know if this is how the aristocratic family behaves but if they are always at each other’s throats like this then I will like to save myself from all this trouble.
It was just a breakfast but it felt more like a court session and she was the murder suspect.
“Let’s eat,” grandpa Hale says, finally breaking the awkward silence that has been reigning in the dining room. I breathed a sigh of relief because the aura my husband was emanating was choking.
Can he please just dim his aura?
“Yeah, we should eat, and don’t let us dwell on unnecessary things,” grandma Hale says, beaming me a smile which I equally return.
Bradley pulled out a chair for me after I took my seat. He started dishing out my food but the glaring stares from some people immediately made me self aware and I had to nudge the man to let me do it but he did not budge.
Looks like I have to be the evil daughter-in-law for today, I thought. Everyone starts dishing their food but my mother-in-law still glares at me but I do not give a damn about that.
“Georgina eats this fish you will need it for the baby, “Grandma Hale says passing the fish to Bradley and I choked at her words.
“Baby?”I was confused but she just smiled and I noticed that around the table it was only my father-in-law and grandpa Hale. Their facial expressions did not change. The rest wasn’t happy about the development at all so, I just started eating because I was so famished maybe because of the vigorous activity I did last night.
“Bradley, have this salad I heard from mother that it’s your favorite,” I heard Joanna’s cringey voice and I hissed in frustration.
Does she not get tired if trying to get close to my husband, I snorted.
“I do not like,” Bradley threw the words at her without mincing it and I gave him a thumbs up.
That’s my man.
After dining at the dinner table we decided to leave for our house which was not appreciated by Bradley’s mother but she does not have a choice.
“Bradley I will like to see you in my study room before you leave, “grandpa Hale says standing up from his seat.
Bradley left for grandpa Hale’s study room after grandma Hale assures him that he will be fine.
“I love your dress” Joanna walks up to me complimenting my dress which Juliana snorted when she looked at me.
“Thanks,” I say looking at the black Chanel dress Bradley got for me to wear. I thought I was going to be left alone but Joanna Beatrice’s daughter came to keep me accompanied and she even decided to tour me around the house. We went around the huge mansion and I can say the house is a palace because everything about it is just magnificent from the carvings to the designs to the structure it’s just so magnificent.
“Is that a maze over there? “I asked, pointing at it.
“Yes even though I have not been there before but my mom says Bradley goes in there like his playground that even when he was kidnapped everyone thought he got lost in the maze but grandpa disagrees before we were later informed and when uncle….”Joanna was saying but she stop and I know she noticed she was delving into too many details.
“I am sorry I talk too much,” she says laughing dryly.
“About that? Bradley’s kidnap, can you tell me about it?” I inquired and I saw Joanna stiffened hearing that. It was like she should not have mentioned it.
“Don’t get too curious Gina there is more to the family you do not know,” Joanna said seriously and I raised my eyebrows at her.
There was more to the family that I do not know.
