Chapter 213 Unexpected Thoughts

Eden didn't understand why Martha focused on this unimportant matter.novelbin

"What's the point of saying this now? You should stop Stefan, shouldn't you? Martha, are you socruel?"

Eden said emotionally and punched the wall.

He was mad that Martha didn't take Stefan's life seriously.

Martha wasn't angry.

She slowly explained, "The grudge between them is rooted in the disputes of their parents. Withoutfiguring out what happened, I won't change anything even if I get there tonight."

"The most urgent task is to solve the issues between them."

Eden suddenly got it.

"The issues between them? Maybe there is some misunderstanding?"

Martha nodded uncertainly, thinking of someone.

"I'm afraid that this thing is not as simple as it looks on the surface. There could be someone behindit."

Her eyes suddenly became cold.

She thought it likely that Stefan had learned Rhys' identity from Gianna, because Giana andAmanda happened to return home shortly before.

Only the elders of the Harrison family knew what happened many years ago.

Plus the fact that Giana provoked her with ill intentions in the hospital, Martha guessed that it wasGiana behind it.

...

To confirm her guess, after leaving the hospital, Martha drove to the Harrison Villa, hoping to meetGiana and ask about the whole picture.

In the evening, a woman sat in the living room, looking at the clock from time to time, with no traceof anxiety on her face.

She appeared to be as calm as usual on the outside.

Stefan and Rhys' appointment was getting near. How could she not be worried?

Her nails dug into her palms. Her eyelids kept twitching. She felt that something was about tohappen.

At the Harrison Villa.

Giana knew that Martha had come, but she asked the latter to wait in the living room.

She had yet to go downstairs to meet Martha.

She thought of Martha's attitude in the hospital before.

Giana was angry, especially when Stefan drove her back without mercy, which made her feelhumiliated.

So, this time she deliberately made Martha wait.

Martha knew Giana's tricks. Yet she remained calm and patient.

Amanda was not as calm as her mother.

After learning that Martha had come, she decided to walk downstairs and show off.

"Wow, isn't this Miss Doyle? You dislike me and my mom, don't you? What brings you here?" A shrillfemale voice sounded.

She walked downstairs like a hostess, and even stroked the roses at the corner.

It seemed that she was very familiar with the villa as if it had been her own home.

Martha was somehow amused by her behavior.

It'd only been a few days since they returned to the country, and now she started to act like thehostess of the Harrison Villa.

Even she couldn't bear it, not to mention Stefan. Martha guessed that Stefan must have beenannoyed during this time.

Thinking of Stefan, Martha chuckled and said, "Stefan and I haven't divorced yet. This is his house.Can't I come back?"

Although Martha didn't want to admit it, the identity as Stefan's wife indeed was helpful at thismoment.

"You guys have just returned from abroad. I don't know if there are enough guestrooms at home.Should I book rooms for you guys in a five-star hotel?"

Martha unceremoniously satirized the two for coming uninvited, even trying to drive them away.

Of course, she has no right to drive anyone away, and neither did Amanda.

Amanda's face changed when she heard this.

She thought that Martha and Stefan had broken up, so Martha wouldn't come back again.

Hearing what Martha said just now, Amanda was furious.

Was Martha moving back to the Harrison Villa?

If that were the case, the chance for her to date Stefan would be even slimmer.

Amanda panicked. She wanted to stop Martha.

She immediately sneered, "Why are you acting like the hostess now? Everybody knows that youand my brother are about to divorce, and you have been messing around with other men. You areshameless!"

Amanda's words were mean. The way she addressed Stefan made Martha feel very uncomfortable.She somehow felt Amanda felt something for Stefan.

Seeing that Martha didn't speak, Amanda thought she touched a raw nerve, so she went on,"Stefan doesn't want you back. I will take good care of him. A few days ago he said I was good atmaking tea."

Amanda bragged about herself and spoke like a hostess to make Martha quit.

Martha knew it was a provocation.

"My cousin is very good to me and my mother, but you make him angry all the time," Amanda addedcalmly.

Martha sneered, and asked, "Why do you care so much about his personal life? Do you want to behis wife?"

She was mocking Amanda.

Yet...

Amanda seemed to be stunned.

Martha frowned, wondering whether she was right.

That was ridiculous.

They were cousins, but Amanda had a crush on Stefan.

Amanda didn't look good. Stefan was her cousin, so she felt embarrassed when Martha hit the nerdon the head.

Things wouldn't be so tricky if Stefan liked her too, but...

Right now, as Stefan's cousin, she couldn't express her desire to be Mrs. Harrison.

Martha observed Amanda's expression and understood.

Amanda and Giana were indeed not so simple.

Giana mainly focused on sowing discord between Stefan and Rhys, and even added fuel to theflames in front of her.

Amanda, on the other hand, wanted to seduce Stefan.

The two fell into an eerie silence.

At that time, the sound of high-heeled shoes came from the stairs, breaking the silence of the livingroom.

Giana finally came downstairs.

Seeing her daughter standing aside with a look of defeat, Giana was speechless.

'Amanda is defeated by Martha so easily. How is Amanda going to replace Martha?'
