Chapter 298
Marilla frolicked over to the snowman, and Coco playfully nudged it over.
She picked up the big snowball, tiptoed, and reattached the âheadâ Coco, wagging his tail excitedly, circled around the pretty girl, even rolling around at her feet. âCoco, arenât you cold? I knit you a sweater someday!â
âWoofâ
Coco seemed to understand and wagged his tail excitedly. He pounced on Marilla, licking her soft cheeks.
âHa ha ha, that tickles! Coco, stop messing around Marilla was knocked to the ground by Coco, and the two of them rolled around in the snow
Jareth watched this rare scene of happiness and warmth, his eyes full of tenderness and doting.
He had thought that he could never have such a simple and happy life.
But Manilla had given him that.
He had what other men had
âMr. Jareth, I never thought that Coco, who used to bite people, could get along so well with Ms. Manilla Lily walked over and said with a smile. âBecause heâs smitten!â
Lily muttered something about a dog being like its owner
Jareth watched as Coco pounced on Marilla, and the more he watched, the more his heart ached, the more he craved a dog
Damn, was he actually jealous of a dog?
âCoco! Go cool off somewhere else!â
Jareth roared and strode over, helping Manilla, coated in snow, to her feet.
âItâs cold on the ground, and youâre a girl. You could catch a coldâ He bent over and brushed the spow off her.
âThank you, Jareth.â
âDonât mention it.â
Jareth looked deeply into her charming eyes, his hot breath sprinkling on her flushed cheeks, âMarilla, youâre important to me, and Iâm happy to be with you. I should be the one thanking you.â
âBut, but I didnât do anythingâ Marilla was bewildered
âYouâve done a lot.â
Jareth grasped her delicate, frozen hands, rubbing them with his warm palms, holding them, and breathing on them.
âCome on, get into my arms.
He opened his black coat to her, and she obediently snuggled into his embrace
She was enveloped in a warm masculine scent, making her feel so comfortable that she closed her eyes and snuggled closer to him.
Suddenly, the fire within Jareth started to flare up again, his eyes gradually turning a shade of red.
âManilla.â
âHmm?â Manillaâs soft voice was muffled.
âFrom now on, you can only act this way with me!
Jareth looked at her with intense eyes, his voice husky. âIf you act like this with others, Iâll get angry. And I can be very scary when Iâm angry.â
âHow scary?â Marilla was a bit nervous, her eyes flickering
Jarethâs eyes were full of affection, his face close to hers, his l*ps almost touching her soft l*ps, âVery scary, want to try? Hmm?â
Manila shook her head rapidly, her heart racing.
âThen I understand. Iâll only act like this with you. Please donât get angry, okay?â
These days, Jureth had been so good to her, buying her many beautiful clothes that she had only seen on her sister before. She never had any of her own.
The food here was delicious. Although not as good as her sister in lawâs, it was still great.
Moreover, Jareth would help her dry her hair, feed her, and even sleep in the same bed with her
Just sleeping nothing else.
Jareth pampered her, cared for her, she didnât want to be so ungrateful as to make him angry
âGood girlâ
Her big watery eyes shone like stars, and Jareth couldnât help but want to k*ss her Suddenly, he realized something and regretted it so much that he wanted to slap himself! Was it this what they called a sl*ppery slope?
But he really, really wished this girl could stay with him forever.
He was thinking of her marrying someone else being held and k*ssed by another man bearing another manâs child.
Jareth felt as if his heart was being squeezed, like a blunt krufe was scraping against it
âMr Jareth! Please come over Suddenly. Lily received a call and quickly summoned hum
âOkayâ
Jareth walked over to Lily and asked, âWhatâs up?
Lily glanced at Manilla and lowered her voice. âI just received a call from Mi. Thaddeus secretary, Gordon He said Mr. Thaddeusâ injuries have worsenedâ
âWhat did you say? Jareth was taken aback and raised his voice
Marilla looked over in confusion
âGordon didnât go into details. He just said Mr. Thaddeus is now recuperating in his private villa, and hasnât told anyone. Gordon felt it necessary to secretly contact me and asked you to go over and see him.â
âI see, Lily, prepare the car. Weâre leaving now!â
Jareth didnât want Marilla to worry, so he didnât tell her. He just said he had something to do and might not be back tonight, and asked her to go to bed first.
âIâll wait for you to come back, then Iâll go to sleepâ Marilla walked him to the door.
She didnât say it, but her eyes were full of reluctance
Jareth felt warm in his heart. He gave her a light smile and then ordered the maid, Bella, âTake good care of Ms. Marillaâ
Just as Jarethâs car left, three luxury cars that were supposed to escort Edith back to the Fairhaven mansion pulled up in front of the villa
âMiss Edith, this is the place.â Manny said in a low voice
âAll for that little tramp, my brother is really genemus. He prepared such a large house. Did he think it would be their marriage house? Edith stared at the beautiful white walls and green roof of the villa, trembling with anger.
âPlease calm down, Miss Edith. Everyone in Elmsworth knows what kind of man Mr. Jareth is.â
Manny tried to soothe Edith in a warm voice, âMr. Jareth has never shown genuine affection to any woman. Iâve seen it all these years. Heâs probably just infatuated with Miss Marilla for a few days. Thatâs all
âYou know nothing! This time itâs different! Heâs my brother, canât I see it?â
Edith was so angry that her face turned red as a beet, âMy brother is bewitched by that foolish and shameless woman, Marilla. He used to be a playboy but suddenly heâs devoted to one woman! Heâs completely spellbound
Heâs not even afraid that having a child with that stupid woman would affect our Fairhaven familyâs superior genes!
Manny dared not speak
âAnyway, I will never let that idiot be my sisterâinâlaw! Itâs either her death or mine!â
Edith angrily opened the car door. Seeing that Manny wasnât moving, she asked curiously, âArenât you coming with me?â
Tm sorry. Miss Edith. After all, I am Mr. Jarethâs man. Itâs not appropriate for me to show up.â Manny looked embarrassed.
âFine, I get it. I never tell anyone about your help, but you also have to help me keep an eye on my brotherâs actions in the future!â
Edithâs eyes had a gloomy look that did not match her appearance, âIf you do well, I will not treat you badlyâ
Manny quickly shook his head, a loyal look on his face, Iâm willing to work for you!â
Edith got out of the car and slammed the car door, muttering under her breath, âHmph, how dare that girl. If it werenât for you being somewhat useful, even breathing the same air as you would make me sick.â
Miss Edith, along with a few b*dyguards and her female secretary, knocked on the villa door with an imposing demeanor.
Bella immediately ran out. Seeing Edith, her expression froze and her voice was panicked, âMiss Edith, why are you here?â âIs Jareth inside?â
Seeing Bella, who had been sent to serve Marilla, Edith felt her rage ble
âMr. Jareth isnât here.â Bella was obviously a bit flustered.
âThen what about that shameless Marilla, she must be inside, right?â
âMiss Edith, Mr. Jareth has already given the order, without his permission, no one is allowed to enter the villaâ Although Bella was panicked, she was still loyal and guarded
the door
âBella, youâve been with our Fairhaven family for over a decade. If you donât let me in, your dignity canât be savedâ Edith threatened.
Tm sorry, I only listen to Mr. Jareth. Miss Edith, please go back.â
âAh!â
Edith screamed like a madwoman and kicked the door, âBreak the door open!â
in the end, the door was broken open by the b*dyguards, and Bella was also restrained by them.
Edith led her secretary into the living room with a murderous look
âManila! You wretchâ
At this moment, Manilla was sitting on the sofa, watching cartoons and playing with her pet dog.
When she saw Edith suddenly appear, her blood froze, her face went pale, and she quickly curled up in a corner of the sofa, hugging her head.
âDonât hit me
âYou deserve it! How dare you seduce my brother? I kill you!â
Edith rushed over, cursing and swearing her left hand grabbing Marillaâs hair and her right hand slapping Manilas face hard
If Jareth were here, she would not dare to hit anyone
Unfortunately, Jareth was not here, so she could vent her resentment freely!
âUm
Manilla, whose ear injury had just healed, suffered a heavy blow again, and her forehead was covered in cold sweat!
âDrag this disgusting wretch out! This is my brotherâs house, itâs my house, and I wonât allow her to appear here!â
At Edinâs command, the secretary immediately took action, grabiting Manilaâs arm and dragging her nut
âWoofâ
Seeing Manila being bullied Coco became furious and pounced on the secretary, biting her armi
2/2
âAh! Let go! Let go! The secretary screamed in pain, releasing her grip on Manilla
Edith was also startled and retreated
The secretary kicked and stomped at the dog, but it just wouldnât let go!
âDonât hit himâ Marilla hugged her dog, using her frail b*dy to protect it
Edith, her eyes bloodshot, took advantage of the chaos to kick Marilla again.
âEdithâ
A sharp frosty voice suddenly pierced Edithâs heart. She hadnât even had time to retract her foot when she was caught redâhanded She stiffly turned her head, her trembling heart almost choking her!
âJareth.â
Jareth stood there like a sword, emanating a hellish icy anger. His handsome face turned from white to red, then from red to black. His chest rose and fell dramatically, his eyes filled with a furious torrent.
Marilla didnât know he had come, she was still hugging Coco, her eyes closed tightly, a pitiful trembling bundle.
The secretaryâs vision went black, she didnât even care about the pain in her arm. She was so frightened that she was shivering!
Who could have imagined that Jareth, who had supposedly left, would come back at this moment!
âEdith, did you hit Manilla?â Jareth saw Marillaâs red and swollen face, his eyes narrowed, and he advanced step by step
Edith shivered violently!
She had never seen Jarethâs eyes like this, it was simply terrifying!
But now that things had come to this, she had nothing to justify Anyway, she was Jarethâs sister, the sister he had pampered since childhood.
Even if Jareth liked Marilla so much, would he do anything to his own sister? In his heart, hadnât family always been more important than anything?
âYes! I did it! Jareth, youâve gone too far! Youâve disappointed me and hurt me!â
Edith cried and screamed. âYou sent me to Aetheria, you didnât care for so long, you didnât even make one phone call! So you were here with this wretch! Youâd even abandon your own sister for her, Jareth! How could you?â
The sound of a harsh slap echoed through the entire living room before her sentence could finish.
Unbelievably, Jareth, his face void of any expression, had slapped Edith,
Edithâs head swung to the side from the impact, her pale and delicate cheek immediately swelling a shameful red handprint branding her skin. A manâs strength was not to be underestimated.
It was excruciating.
With that slap, not only did Edithâs face swell, but her heart shattered into pieces.
Just then, Lily walked in, taken aback by the scene before her.
In Elmsworth, it was wellâknown that Jareth, the eldest son of the prestigious Fairhaven family, was infamously doting on his sister
She never would have imagined that she would witness such a scene in her lifetime. It was truly shocking
âEdith, Iâm starting to question if this woman standing before me, clad in this skin but harboring such a dark and cruel heart, is truly my sister,â Jareth didnât spare Edith another glance. Instead, he reached out to Marilla, pulling her into his arm protectively âOr perhaps, Iâve spoiled you rotten. Youâre no longer the innocent little girl you once were. Youâre no longer my sisterâ
