Way Back Into Love (Essie)

Chapter 775 Find The Mistress

"A few days ago, I heard that your mother's watch was broken. I just won the bid for a watch at a

charity auction last time. Your aunt has several watches, so it's useless to keep this one. Why don't you

give it to your mother?" Albert said as he took out his watch.

Irene took it over and looked at it with her eyes wide open. This watch was simply too gorgeous and

flaunting. "Uncle, this watch must be very expensive, right?"

"It will be useless if it set aside free," Albert said indifferently.

Irene smiled and said, "Then I'll thank uncle on behalf of mom."

Taking a sip of his coffee, a deep light flashed through Albert's eyes. "Don't tell your mother that I gave

it to her. I'm afraid that she will be angry and insist on giving me money."

"Okay, I'll tell her that I bought it." Irene nodded without thinking too much. Her mother was indeed a

conservative person and didn't like to accept other people's kindness.

"What has your mother been doing recently? She hasn't been here for a long time. Both Mili and Dot

miss her very much." Silence reigned. It seemed that Albert just asked casually.

"In addition to managing the business of the Chateau here, what she does most is to raise flowers, or

go to Phoenix Road to have tea and chat with aunt Lucy," Irene said with a smile.

"Two days later, the elders will come back from Switzerland. Remember to come over with

your mommy and have dinner with us," Albert said.

"Well, even if mom doesn't go there, I will go there often." Irene smiled. She still had to pursue Zac.

On the second day, when Essie came to see the baby in Phoenix Road, Mrs. Rose was also there,

playing with the baby. After the elders came back, she was going to take her baby back to the Rong

Mansion. The two elders were looking forward to seeing their little grandson as soon as possible.

"I brought some desserts from Mrs. Qi's shop. Let's eat while it's still hot," Essie said, putting the

dessert on the table.

"Yesterday, I went to your mommy Qi's house and sent them some Spring Festival Goods," Lucy said

with a smile.

"After the new year, your mommy Qi will go abroad. You should meet more often while she is still at

home," Essie said, picking up a crystal dumpling for Mrs. Rose.

When Mrs. Rose was eating dumplings, the watch on her wrist was exposed from her sleeve. Essie

saw it at a glance and said, "Wow, auntie, your watch is so beautiful. Is it a new one?"

"Irene bought it for me." Mrs. Rose smiled, "It seems very expensive. I'm worried that she will spend

too much money, but she said that she asked her friend to buy it for her and there is a discount. I'm

relieved that there is a discount."

"This child is very filial to you," Lucy said with a smile.

Mrs. Rose nodded. "Although she has known that she is not my biological daughter, her attitude

towards me has not changed, which makes me very gratified."

After eating a Fried Bun, Essie wiped her hands and said, "Auntie, can I have a look?" As a fashion

designer, she was professionally interested in any unique fashion items.

Mrs. Rose carefully took off the watch and handed it to her.

She took it and looked at it carefully. She was shocked.

This watch was obviously a rare and special customized version. Patek Philippe's customized watch

was either ordered by customers in the company or sold by auction, and would not appear in the

exclusive shop. How could Irene buy it? Moreover, this watch was very expensive, and Irene couldn't

afford it at all.

While she was thinking, an idea flashed through her mind.

Mary suspected that her father-in-law had an affair because he bought a lady's watch and didn't give it

to her.

Now, a strange watch suddenly appeared on auntie's wrist.

Did he give it to aunt?

In Provence, there were some unknown conflicts between her father-in-law and her aunt. Did he send

the watch to aunt to express his apology?

But since it was a normal gift, why did her aunt lie that it was from Irene?

She gave the watch back to Mrs. Rose, confused.

"Irene has a good taste. This watch matches aunt very much."

"I like whatever she gives me," Mrs. Rose said with a smile, her face full of mother's tenderness.

Essie was confused again. Judging from the natural and honest expression on Mrs. Rose's face, she

didn't seem to be lying at all.

Was she wrong?

If it was really from Irene, where did she buy this watch?

In the evening, when she returned to the Rong Mansion, she called Mili over. "Baby, do something for

mommy..." She lowered her head and whispered in her ear. She nodded and ran out of the room

happily.

Zac was dealing with some business in the study. She knocked on the door and sat beside him.

"Daddy, may I bother you?"

"What's the matter, baby?" Zac looked at her affectionately.

"I just want to ask grandma what the watch looks like," Mili said in a low voice.

Zac shook his head and laughed. This little girl was still thinking about this. "Don't worry about grandpa

and grandma. You are a child. You can't always be curious about adults' affairs."

"Daddy, today's homework, the teacher asked us to draw the most interesting thing in the house. I think

this mysterious watch is the most interesting thing. It makes everyone think about it, so I really want to

draw it. If you don't tell me, then I won't do my homework today," Mili pouted, acting like a spoiled child

and threatening.

Zac held her on his laps and said seriously, "Baby, no matter what happens at home, you can't tell any

outsider. This is the rule of our family, you know?"

"Don't worry, daddy. I won't say a word. I just said it was a meaningful gift for my mommy's wedding

anniversary." Mili made a gesture to zip her mouth.

Hearing this, Zac was relieved. Although Mili liked to make trouble, she knew what she should do and

would not do anything against the ban.

"I guess your curiosity was infected by your aunt Ivy." He gently pinched her little face and told her

Mary's description of the watch.

Mili picked up a pen and a piece of paper and began to paint carefully.

It never occurred to Zac that her painting was not given to the teacher, but to Essie.

When Essie saw the painting, a deep and sharp light flashed through her eyes. This watch was exactly

the same as the one on Mrs. Rose's wrist. There was only one customized version in the world.

She was ninety nine percent sure that Mrs. Rose's watch was sent by her father-in-law. Perhaps her

father-in-law was afraid that Mrs. Rose wouldn't accept it, so he sent it to her through Irene and asked

Irene to lie to Mrs. Rose.

Recently, her father-in-law suddenly had a new hobby to improve jasmine.

If it wasn't for Mary, it must have something to do with Mrs. Rose. Jasmine was her favorite flower!

Thinking of this, she put her hand on her forehead. According to this conclusion, in Provence, in fact,

the father-in-law and Mrs. Rose were not in conflict as Zac said, but they had a secret crush on each

other! Mrs. Rose was unwilling to come to Dragon City because she wanted to escape!

If so, Mrs. Rose would be in danger. Mary would definitely not let her go. She was gentle and kind. How

could she be a match for Mary?

She had to find a way to prevent Mary from knowing that her father-in-law had given the watch to Mrs.

Rose. If the mistress was neither relative nor friend, she would certainly not support her. But if it was

Mrs. Rose, she would definitely support her one hundred percent, because she was very likely the real

Mary.

She put the paper away in case Zac saw it. He couldn't let Zac know this. In his heart, Mary was his

mother. He would definitely stand on Mary's side and would not support Albert and his aunt.

Zac went out of the study after he finished his work.

In the children's room, Essie taught Rabi how to read. She didn't need to worry about Mili and Dot at

all.

"Mommy, do you think I'm stupid? Mili and Dot are very smart. They know everything. I'm not as smart

as them at all," Rabi lowered his head and said in a low voice. In front of Mili and Dot, he had always

felt a little inferior. Although he was their elder brother, he was not as good as his brother and sister in

everything.

"Baby, how can you think so? You are as smart as Mili and Dot. Last time, you learned how to make

steamed stuffed buns from mommy Eva. You did the best. Mili and Dot are not as good as you." said

Essie, stroking his head.

Hearing that, Rabi smiled. "Mummy Eva said that I have the talent to be a cook and she wants me to

be her apprentice."

"That's right. Rabi is really the elder brother. You are the best. Mommy likes steamed buns made by

you most." Essie kissed his little face lovingly.

Leaning against the door frame, Zac looked at them. After all, Rabi was an ordinary child, so he and NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Essie had more energy on him.

When he saw Zac, Rabi smiled sweetly and called, "Daddy."

"How many words did you learn today?" Zac walked in and touched his little face.

"Five." Rabi stretched his fingers. "Daddy, can I also go to primary school like Mili and Dot?"

"Rabi will go to primary school in September, okay?" Zac said with a smile.

"Okay." Rabi nodded obediently.

After learning the Chinese characters, Essie asked the nanny to take Rabi to take a shower. She went

to the other two rooms, looked at Mili and Dot, and then went back to her room with Zac.

"Is Mommy still suspicious of daddy?" she asked in a low voice.

"Before we find that watch, her doubts will not disappear." Zac shrugged.

"Have you found any clue?" Essie said in a casual tone, as if she was just asking something

unimportant.

Zac shook his head. He didn't have so much time to investigate his father. He was just thinking about

an excuse to muddle through Mary.

"I think Mommy is too idle to be suspicious. Daddy is a clean freak. How could he cheat on her?" Essie

curled her lips.

"If daddy was willing to go back to their room, she wouldn't be like this." Zac sighed.
