Chapter 13 Marrying the Lockwood's Son (Part 13)

"There's no way in h*ll I'm taking care of that b*tch," Helen hung up the phone and sneered.

"I didn't mean to pry, but as the lady of the house, why are you being so petty with the girl? Didn't you say that she will marry Christiano in a few days?" A lavishly dressed wealthy lady commented.

The more Helen thought about it, the more annoyed she became. In the end, she waved her hand goodbye and said, "I'm leaving now. Let's meet again when we're free."

Then, she picked up her handbag and turned to leave.

Roland stood outside for a little while. After regaining his composure, he slowly walked back into the wardroom. Then, he saw Adeline was sitting at the corner of the bed, holding the quilt in her hand, and her expression blank. He immediately went forward to her.

"What's wrong, Adeline? Why aren't you resting?"

Noticing the exhaustion on Ronald, Adeline felt sorry for him and said, "Dad, I want to go home. I'm feeling fine now. Can we go home?"
