A loud gasp followed on the table , except Ryan who's face had been expressionless all along , Sloan stamped her foot on the floor angrily as she found her way to the stairs “ Hailey make a bath ” she ordered as she took quick steps , the slithery content dripping on the floor each step she took .“ Don't you just stand there , fix that mess ” she shouted at Chef Mona who vanished into the kitchen while Rodney called the house Doctor .“ My wife and I will take our leave now ” Ryan said as he held Violet's hand taking her by surprise .“ I am sorry for the display of things , we can always have another dinner as a family ” Mr Brookes apologized to Ryan Reynolds his gaze not leaving their lock hands .He was jealous and wondered why he was jealous, she was his daughter to the public or fake daughter, why was he feeling this tingling sensation towards her “ we would be pleased to honour your invitation ” Ryan said dismissively though in a polite manner one could tell he meant othe
The Hired Bride Bessie's affirmation

Good morning ma'am ” Bessie stuttered“ oh ! There is nothing good about this morning ” Sloan snorted as she looked at Bessie in disdain “ You ruined my dinner you little wretched maid ” Sloan snapped “ I am sorry ma'am ” Bessie apologized “ No you would tell me why you chose to ruin my happy moments ” Sloan said adamantly“ I didn't mean to ma'am , I don't know what came over me ” Bessie apologized “ i would rather keep my mouth shut than spew rubbish because you have a lot of explaining to do ” Sloan rasped as she threw a test result at Bessie who didn't pick up the paper quickly “ pick it up ” Sloan said coldly as sh
