Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 476
The next day, at the Carter residence.
Tara arrived as usual. She was also carrying two delicate boxes. After entering the living room, she
bumped into Sebastian and Aunt Tonya. She changed her expression and showed them a smile.
âSebastian and Aunt Tonya, good morning.â Sebastian replied, âHello, Ms. Avery.â
Aunt Tonya simply snorted coldly and turned her head to the side, pretending not to see her.
Tara secretly cussed at the woman in her heart, but she walked up to Aunt Tonya with a smile on her
face.
âAunt Tonya, these are gifts that I picked out for Isabel and Liam. Could you please help me take it to
their room?â She handed over the boxes to Aunt Tonya. Aunt Tonyaâs face instantly went cold. âTara
Avery, what kind of tone is that? Do you consider yourself the master here?â
âHow dare she directly order me to do something?
âDoes she think Iâm too old and stupid to understand her meaning?
Tara immediately put on an innocent expression. âThatâs not what I meant, Aunt Tonya. Isabel and Liam
are the closest to you. I canât go up to their room, so I just thought that I could ask you to help me take it
over to them.â Aunt Tonya became furious when she saw Taraâs one-man act. âOut of everyone here,
why did you ask me to help you? Youâre just deliberately asking for a fight!â Taraâs eyes reddened as if
she was about to cry.
Aunt Tonya could not help but roll her eyes.
Seeing the situation, Sebastian moved forward and tugged Aunt Tonya to her to stop shouting at Tara.
Then, he said to Tara, âMs. Avery, Iâll help you take the things to the children.â He extended his hand
toward Tara.
However, Tara continued to explain anxiously, âAunt Tonya, thatâs really not what I meant. I donât think of
myself as the master here. I just wanted to come see Grandma and help Sylvia take care of the
children.â
Aunt Tonya was incensed at her words. âDonât you dare speak Sylâs name! Youâre not worthy!â Tara said
aggrievedly, âI know that you watched Sylvia grow up, and her passing has made you very sad, but donât
worry. I will take care of you on her behalf.â Aunt Tonya felt like her lungs were about to explode.
âIn all my years of living, Iâve never seen such a good actor! âNot only is she good at acting, she even
deliberately picked out words that I donât like to hear. She acts like sheâs kind while also pretending to be
hurt, thus making me look like an unreasonable person.â
Seeing Taraâs weak and soft look as if she was about to cry, Aunt Tonya could not hold back anymore
and rushed up to slap her face. Smack!
Tara let out a scream and fell to the ground. Aunt Tonya pointed to her and scolded, âYou really know
how to act, little girl. So, youâll take care of me? Huhâ¦. Iâm sure that if you ever married into this family,
the first thing youâd do would be to kick me out!â
Tara covered her face and cried. âThatâs really not what I meantâ¦â âStop acting already! !âll beat you to
death!â Aunt Tonya was about to charge at her. Sebastian saw that things were looking bad and quickly
tried to stop her. At that moment, a tall figure came down the stairs. When Sebastian saw that Aunt
Tonya had not noticed Odellâs presence and was about to hit Tara, he quickly shouted, âMaster Carter!â
Aunt Tonya froze and turned to see Odellâs dark and displeased face. Tara immediately cried and looked
at Odell. âOdell, I just wanted to give Isabel and Liam a gift. I didnât mean anything else.â Odell walked
straight up to her and helped her up from the ground. âI know.â He had overheard her conversation with
Aunt Tonya from upstairs. Tara had been compromising since the beginning. It was Aunt Tonya who was
being unreasonable.

Tara suddenly fell into his arms and sobbed pitifully.
