Angel looked at Azalea with disdain. “Have you changed your mind? Aren’t you afraid of destroying Abbie’s reputation?”
Azalea forced a smile. “Yes! I… I’ve changed my mind. Abbie stole my lover and she’s so shameless! I can’t bear it.”
“That’s right! I’ll plan the entire scandal. I’m still going through the details, so we’ll talk about it when I’m done. But you have to promise that you’ll follow my plan. You must do what I ask you to do. As long as you obey me, I’ll let you succeed!”
“Okay! I’ll listen to you!” Azalea agreed.
Azalea did not completely believe in Angel. Although she made a promise, she immediately told Meadow that Angel was going to create a scandal about herself and Michael.
“Aunt Meadow, what do you think Ms. Floyd wants? I don’t trust her and I always feel that she has other purposes.”
Meadow could not guess Angel’s purpose as well. “I can’t gauge her intentions either, so let’s go one step at a time. At least we share the same goal as her now.”
“That’s true, but Ms. Floyd really makes me feel uneasy. I can see that she hates me very much. She dares to even plot against Valeria, so it’s easy for her to deal with me. I’m afraid she will use me to cause some trouble.”
“Don’t worry, she is just an imposter. You will find that she’s completely incapable once you tear down her mask and she’s not worth mentioning at all.” Meadow did not take Angel seriously because the latter was just a fake. When Meadow found a chance to uncover Angel’s fake identity, she would destroy the younger girl.
Azalea felt much more relieved after Meadow reassured her. However, she was not stupid and she always felt that Meadow hid a lot of her secrets as well. “Meadow, can you tell me your plan?”
“Not now! It’s not the right time.” Meadow refused to tell her, “But you have to be careful with your mother. She’s not a good person.”
Azalea knew that Madelyn was not a good person, but she did not believe that Meadow was completely good as well. Anyway, the only person who was nice to her and did not want anything in return was Emily.
Meadow reminded her as she was deep in thought, “By the way, did you try to gain your aunt’s favour as I asked you to? Remember to visit her when you have time and buy some snacks that she likes. Your aunt is the only person who can help you without asking anything in return.”
Meanwhile, in the Anthony family, Paisley was dressing up in the room as she got ready to see Ornard at night. Danya knocked on the door and came in. “Miss, I saw Pierre’s bodyguards sneaking around in the car outside.”
“Why aren’t they in the hospital with Pierre? What are they doing here?” Paisley, who was putting on lipstick, suddenly stopped.
“I don’t know. They didn’t come in and they just sat in the car outside. I accidentally found them.”
“Did Pierre ask them to keep an eye on me?” Paisley frowned.
“It’s possible! What should we do now, Miss?”
“Let’s see first. If Pierre asked them to follow me, then we can think of a way.”
Paisley finished her makeup quickly and went out with her bag. She asked Danya to drive her to a nearby dessert shop to buy desserts while Pierre’s people followed her from far behind.
Paisley knew what was going on when she saw them. “They are indeed following me.”
“It’s strange. Why did Pierre send people to spy on you? You’re not going to the company anymore and you’re under their control as well. What is he doing?” Danya was also confused.
“Yes, this is really strange. By right, I have nothing now and I don’t pose any threats to them. Why is Pierre wasting time on me?” Paisley frowned. “Could it be that Pierre, that idiot, knows about my relationship with the guy next door?
“You and that man only contact each other at night but Pierre has been in the hospital all the time. How did he know?”
“There are eyes and ears everywhere, so perhaps I’ve made a mistake somewhere.”
“Miss, what should we do now?”
“We should go with the flow!” Paisley spat. When she saw Danya’s blank face, she explained, “I had no choice but to follow the man next door, but I can’t figure out what he’s thinking. He promised to marry me before, but he didn’t mention anything about that when I was together with him. I was not sure, so I dared not reveal my relationship with him. Now that Pierre asked someone to follow me, this is the best time to expose my relationship with that man.”
“Miss, if Pierre knows that you are with that guy, he will definitely make it public and your reputation will be destroyed.” Danya thought that Ornard was not worthy of Paisley because of his age.
“I have no reputation, nor do I have any other choices. I am now isolated and helpless without my brother. I’m completely restricted, so my only lifeline is Ornard. If I can marry him and become his wife, my father will not dare to neglect me. I can also rely on Ornard’s forces to start planning. It’s best to save my brother and I have nothing to fear this way.”
Meanwhile, in the manor in Arcadia, William and Valeria set off for the honeymoon trip with Bobby and Silas as their escort.
Valeria liked the local culture in Arcadia, so William had deliberately chosen an RV to travel.
Bobby was driving the recreational vehicle and their first stop was Heidelberg. This beautiful street, as well as this ancient town, was filled with multicultural markets that were unforgettable.
Silas took the time to tell William that he had sent a message to Pierre. “Sir, I have sent Pierre a message according to your orders and he’s suspecting Paisley. I think he will definitely arrange someone to keep an eye on Paisley.”
“Then let’s wait and see.” William said with a smile.
Valeria turned to look at William and said, “Dear, what are you going to do?”
“I want to help Ornard and Paisley get married. It’s said that lovers should eventually get married. They are so in love that they got together regardless of their age gap. I can’t bear to see them break up, so I can only think of a way to help them.”
William’s words sounded strange, so Valeria glanced at him and said, “Don’t lie to me, just tell me what you want to do.”
William saw that Valeria was anxious, so he said, “I really want to help them. Ornard keeps hiding, so I need to expose him and let Paisley achieve her goal. Otherwise, when will Ornard let Paisley succeed if things go on like this? I just want to speed up their progress.”
