Way Back Into Love novel Chapter 129

The pastry chef they had hired was from Britain. He was simply amazing at making cakes.

With the help of a maid, Valery was walking toward the garden.

Essie spotted her from the corner of her eye but chose to ignore it.

But Valery didn't want to let her go easily. She walked into the pavilion and sat down without asking her anything.

In Valery's mind, she was the future hostess of the family. She thought it was better to already start acting like it and suppress Essie as much as possible.

Essie suddenly fell into a bad mood. The cake did not taste the same today, because the woman in front of her had affected her appetite.

"Don't you feel like this house is a wonderland, since you're such a poor girl? I'm afraid you won't get to enjoy such a good day in a big garden for a long time after this..."

Essie ignored her deliberately. Infuriated but unwilling to argue with her, she took out her phone and started playing a game on it.

The maid poured a cup of fruit tea for Valery. "You know, I can give you enough money to enjoy the upper class life for your remaining days...only if you divorce Zac."

"Miss Valery, my husband has given me a VIP card. I can afford a plane if I want to buy one. What makes you think I am poor?" Essie sneered, finally meeting her eyes.

Valery fell silent. She hadn't expected Zac would have given her a VIP card! Was he really planning to live with her for a long time? In that case, she and her child would lose their status...

"Humph...how naive. Don't you realize he is only interested in you temporarily? When he gets tired of you, you will be dumped back to your pathetic life," Valery remarked with a cunning smile.

"It doesn't matter. At least, I still hold the position of his wife, which is better than a nameless relationship..." Essie maintained a poker face as she played her ace, shutting Valery's mouth.

Essie's blunt words enraged Valery.

"You are forgetting that my son will remain the eldest grandson of this family!" She stared into Essie's eyes fiercely. Her gaze was sharp like a sword.

"Really? What I have heard is that this family is different than yours. They only care about the children of their own wives, and the concubines' are left to rot."

Valery's face flushed. If she wasn't pregnant, she would jump and strangle the little bitch who had dared to threaten her. "And are you fortunate enough to give birth to Zac's child?" Valery could spend all her life trying to make Essie infertile.

"Save your own child first. Protect him from your own bad behavior, otherwise he might get retribution for your evil deeds," Essie commented with her composure unstirred.

"Sister Essie, what's wrong with Hanson? Why was he absent from the review? You know what! He is the new God for the girls in our class. He is so handsome, funny and witty! The appraisal will be boring if he doesn't come."

Essie quivered internally, but said nothing. The thought of Hanson looking all over Dragon City for her made Essie's heart ache.

She lowered her head and took a sip of water, trying to distract herself.

"I am not sure about that," she replied lightly. Zac had decided to turn over a new leaf. She didn't want to piss him off again. Hearing all this talk about Hanson made Zac insecure. He cleared his throat and glared at his cousin. "Is he as handsome as I am?" he asked. Essie couldn't believe that he would ask something like that.

"Oh, different type. You are the president, while he is the sunshine type." Ivy puckered up her lips.

Zac rubbed her little head and said, "Work hard, sister. Don't keep dreaming of lovers."

"When I graduate from the university, I will find Hanson and marry him!" replied Ivy excitedly.

Ivy's innocence made Daisy chuckle. "Ivy, he is engaged to Sunny. By the time you graduate, his children would have grown up!"

"Sunny isn't his type, and all the girls in my class think he doesn't like Sunny at all, because he always gives her lower scores. And he always gives sister Essie highest scores!" Ivy spoke without a filter, unaware of a man's cold gaze on her.
