Chapter 264 - 163 I’ll teach you a method
She had been a housekeeper for the Hallow Family all her life, and was considered one of the old hands in the family. Yet, she had never endured such humiliation. Although the eldest young master was somewhat stern usually, he never laid a hand on anybody. He was generous in paying wages by the end of the year. As the one who paid her, the eldest young master never showed airs, so why was this person who was about to be kicked out putting on airs?
After saying this, Butler Kent straightened his collar, held his head high, and walked out.
Even as a servant, he was a servant with status.
The few maids who entered cleaned up carefully, picking up the food spilled on the carpet.
Naomi Walker sat on the sofa, her mind entirely fixed on the fact that Charlotte Miller had returned.
Now that she’s back, is the entire family revolving around her?
"Did the kitchen prepare a lot of food for the eldest young mistress today?" Ava Walker sat on the sofa, her face darkly stern as she asked the servants cleaning the carpet.
The servants naturally didn’t know as much as the housekeeper about the inside story and only assumed that the second young mistress might have committed an error and was being confined. Not daring to slack off, they quickly replied in a whisper, "The eldest young mistress is pregnant this time, so the kitchen is surely being more meticulous. Please don’t take it to heart, Butler Kent must have gone to the kitchen to prepare new meals for you, right?" These words were meant to comfort Ava, but unexpectedly ignited a fire.
Looking at the food scattered on the floor, the servants thought it was because the meal didn’t suit her taste that Ava got so angry, so they hurriedly explained the situation.
Initially, Naomi Walker was dumbfounded and didn’t react.
Charlotte Miller is pregnant?
This fact seemingly struck her mind like a lightning bolt, causing her body to shiver uncontrollably for a few moments before bursting into laughter.
This was simply the most entertaining news in the world.
So Hailey Hill really didn’t deceive her, and Atlas Hallow truly intended for Charlotte to bear a child together with Hailey?
The timing Hailey mentioned matched perfectly with this.
So, has the baby already been conceived?
Is it the child of Hailey and Atlas placed into Charlotte’s belly?
Ava had always been full of doubt about Hailey’s words, but ever since Hailey played that recording for her, Ava believed her. Coupled with Charlotte’s current pregnancy, she believed it even more; if this was true, then there was surely a good show to watch?
Thinking of the whole family doting on Charlotte like she was a treasure, the entire kitchen making delicious food for her, and everyone cautiously pleasing her with smiles—why?
This was simply the funniest joke, did Charlotte actually think she could gain status through her child?
But there was one thing Ava still didn’t quite understand, which was if the surgery had been done, Charlotte should know, right? Would she be willing to willingly bear a child for another woman?
After the servants had cleaned up and left, only Ava Walker and Ella Johnson remained in the room.
"Mom, what exactly is going on?" Ava anxiously pulled on Ella Johnson’s arm, wanting to discuss this matter with someone.
What she needed now was to calm down and thoroughly analyze the entire situation. If possible, she hoped to make a decisive move, ensuring Charlotte’s complete downfall.
After dealing with Charlotte, there would still be Hailey Hill. These people all had to die, not one could be left alive.
Ella Johnson sat at a distance, holding a cup of already cold tea. She seemed completely unfazed by the cold, taking a sip before saying indifferently, "What’s so strange about this? Is there anything Atlas Hallow can’t achieve if he wants to? If he desired, he could drug her during sleep and have this surgery done without anyone being aware. Sometimes even Charlotte herself wouldn’t know she’s carrying someone else’s child. When it’s born, he could simply tell Charlotte that the baby died during childbirth and give the child to Hailey Hill—what’s so difficult about that?"
Ella observed her daughter’s slightly open, astonished mouth and continued, "For a man as intelligent as Atlas Hallow, this is as effortless as lifting a finger. Is this what you should be worried about now? Ava, what you need to consider is that you’ll never get a chance to approach Charlotte, because Atlas won’t give you that opportunity. Although he doesn’t know you have recordings of his conversations, you’ll never have the chance to approach her. How will you inform Charlotte of this? If you do, would you end up dying? I do not want to see you die..."
