The old master’s face darkened, and he hurried toward the car. The old madam glanced at Ava, and she looked a little upset. “Ava, you shouldn’t talk like this.”
Her remarks had meant to provoke the old master. The old madam believed that Elena was a good person, but the old master had always seen her in a bad light. The old master had been very anxious when they found out that Michael was injured. Ava must have wanted to push the old master into even more distress.
Ava pouted and said, “Grandmother, you are biased. Why do you care more about Elena than me?”
“Do I not care about you too?” The old madam felt a little helpless.
“Elena was the reason Michael got injured. Why wouldn’t Grandmother let me say so? I cared for Michael too!”
“Elena is your sister. Don’t you care about her?”
“But, it was her fault this time!” Ava had behaved more belligerently with the old madam as days went by.
After Old Madam Williams accepted Ava as her granddaughter, she had treated her well and fulfilled all her demands. Ava no longer needed to pretend to be obedient in exchange for her attention and love.
The old lady felt a little lost. She thought that she should talk some sense into Ava, but it was as if she knew that her effort would go to waste. She only hoped that they would not get into a real fight. Other than that, there was nothing much she could do anyway.
“Piper, push me over to see Michael.” Piper was the new maid whom the butler had arranged to replace Evie.
Ava was furious about that matter. She had managed to build a relationship with Evie, but Elena had dismissed her. It had not been easy for her to forge a new relationship with Piper. If she made a wrong move, it might very well be a self-destructive mistake! It was all Elena’s fault; she wanted to strangle her!
That b*tch should watch her steps! Eldest Young Master Williams was injured because of Elena, so the old master would surely teach her a lesson! Ava could not wait to find out what the old master would do to Elena! Even though everyone respected the old madam in the Mu household, the old master had the final say!
When Old Master Williams got to the car, Levi greeted him, “Old Master, Eldest Young Master is currently resting.”
“Shouldn’t he rest in the room? What is he doing in the car?”
The old master ordered impatiently and with an unpleasant look, “Open the door!”
What could two people do in a car during the day? They had stayed in the car even when it had been so noisy outside! One was curious about what they were up to in there. If they dared to be intimate in the car… How could they keep such an unruly woman in the Williams family?
Piper wheeled the old madam to the front yard, and they stopped behind the old master. The old madam anxiously said, “Michael must have been injured and needed a rest…”
“Then, he should have a proper rest at home.” Ava went to stand next to the old master.
She had the same thoughts as the old master. She had to check it out if the two of them were intimate in the car.
Since the old master was also there, Ava kept her fingers crossed that the two were really doing unspeakable things in the car. Her heart would ache, but it would be worthwhile if the old master decided to chase Elena out of the Mu household because of her behavior!
She glared at Levi. “Grandfather wants to see Eldest Young Master Williams. Open the car door now!”
If they acted any slower, the two people in the car would have a chance to get dressed. Then, the old master would not be able to catch them in the act. She even thought that perhaps she could act on Levi’s behalf.
Everyone thought it was weird that Ava had addressed the old master as Grandfather, but no one said anything because the old master remained silent.
When Levi did not entertain her, Ava yelled, “Levi, didn’t you hear that Grandfather asked you to open the door?”
Levi nodded to the old master before he approached the car door. However, before Levi reached the handle, the door opened from the inside. The two figures in it immediately caught everyone’s eyes.
Elena was in the back seat; her clothes were neat, and her hair was immaculate. There was no sign of inappropriate behavior as what the others had imagined. As for Michael, he was still soundly asleep on Elena’s lap! He hugged the girl’s waist and buried his face in her belly as he continued to sleep like a child! No one had ever seen such a childish side of Eldest Young Master Williams after he had grown up, not even the old madam and the old master!
The two felt warm when they noticed Eldest Young Master Williams’s peaceful posture. They were astonished to realize that the young couple had gotten along well. The old madam felt so moved that she almost cried. It looked like Michael, and Elena were in love with each other. Michael was like a little kid when he was with Elena. Which woman could make a man sleep like a baby? Especially an arrogant man like Michael! Except for the woman whom he had loved so dearly, no one else could do it. It seemed like he really did cherish Elena.
“Old Master, look at our Michael…” The old lady lowered her voice, careful not to disturb the serene couple in the car.
The old man nodded. Even though he did not say a word, one could see the warmth in his eyes.
He had not seen Michael like that… So obedient and docile. The girl’s hand rested on his head, and she would stroke his short hair whenever he frowned slightly. It was as if she tried to smooth the hair of a grumpy child, and it had worked too. The kid had become so obedient to her.
All the servants and bodyguards were struck in awe. Who had seen such a cute side to the young master? It had utterly toppled the aloof reputation that the young master had held for years.
Ava was furious when everyone looked impressed with Elena. Was that Eldest Young Master Williams who had slept on Elena’s lap? Where was the proud and distant Eldest Young Master Williams?
“Elena, did you take advantage of Eldest Young Master Williams’s injury and drugged him to make him sleep like this?”
Ava stepped forward. It was apparent that she could not accept the fact!
“Elena, what did you do to the Eldest Young Master Williams? Tell us!”
The man asleep on Elena’s lap frowned unhappily when he heard the shrieking voice. He was about to wake up! Even Elena’s caress proved to be futile. It was a miracle that Eldest Young Master Williams could sleep and relax under the eyes of so many people. How could he continue to slumber with that annoying voice that rambled beside him? The atmosphere tensed and froze the moment he opened his eyes.
His eyes immediately filled with disgust. “Get her out of here!”
“Michael…” Before the old madam could finish her sentence, Levi had stepped forward and carried Ava by the back of her collar and chucked her out at the gate.
“Levi!” Ewan caught up to them and tried to stop him.
It was pitiful for a girl to be treated so rudely. However, he could not defy the young master’s. The old madam was anxious too, but Levi had to obey the eldest young master’s order.
Although she was concerned, the old madam could only instruct in a soft voice, “Levi, please don’t hurt her.”
