"Madam, we really don't know what's going on." The servants looked at each other, all with a confused and trembling look.
They all live on the salary paid by the Fitzgerald family, and the child inside Regina's belly is the treasure that Joanna cares most about, how could they dare to give her something like laxatives? "Jessie, you've been following Regina around lately, what do you think is going on here!" Being swept by Joanna's cold and stern eyes, Jessie's body jerked, she panicked and opened her mouth to explain, "Madam, | really didn't know what was going on! | brought the dinner to Miss Wells' room, it was all the stuff the cook made every day, | really didn't think there would be laxatives in it!" "Madam, Miss Wells has never been fussy and doesn't like to eat snacks, all she eats are things made by our Fitzgerald family cooks. This afternoon, she was fine, and after she ate dinner, she started yelling about her stomach hurting." Jessie paused and then said, "Could it be that someone deliberately added laxatives to Miss Wells’ meal? If that's the case, that person's heart is too malicious!" "Miss Wells is carrying a baby in her belly, such a large dose of laxative is simply killing the baby inside Miss Wells’ belly!" The old lady's face was already pale enough, after hearing Jessie's words, she becangrier The child inside Regina's belly was important to Joanna, and now, under her nose, someone was trying to harm this child, so how could she be in a comfortable mood! "Get the cook over here! | don't believe that | can't find the culprit who wants to harm my precious great grandson!" "Madam, | just saw ......" Margaret, an old maid suddenly spoke up, but she was halfway through her sentence when she shut her mouth.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough she didn't say anything useful, everyone's attention, however, was drawn to her.
Joanna's eyes gleamed as she stared at her face, "Margaret, you know | hate it when people only say half of what they say! What did you see just now? You saw who was trying to harm the child inside Regina's belly, didn't you?" "l ......" Margaret looked embarrassed, she looked at Joanna and then at Jaden and Jayla who were standing beside her, reluctant to speak.
Seeing Margaret in such a difficult situation, Joanna could also guess that the person who drugged Regina was not an ordinary servant, and her eyes becmore and more stern, "Margaret, you don't need to be afraid! No matter who is trying to harm my precious grandson, | will never forgive him lightly!" "It's Jaden and Jayla!" Margaret said, directly flopping down on her knees, "Madam, just now | went to the kitchen and saw Jaden and Jayla standing next to Miss Wells' meal, and they poured something into it." "I didn't think much about it at the time, | just thought that Jaden and Jayla had kindly added sseasoning to Miss Wells’ meals, but | didn't expect that Miss Wells would start having abdominal pain after eating those meals." "I know Jaden and Jayla are childish and naughty, but if the child inside Miss Wells’ belly is in trouble ......" "Jaden and Jayla?" Joanna obviously had doubts about Margaret's words, after all, she genuinely loved these two children, and she did not want to believe that the children she loved could have such a malevolent mind.
"Margaret, did you really see Jaden and Jayla?" Joanna asked again with a cold face.
"It's true!" Margaret raised her face warily, "Jaden and Jayla are both treasures of the Fitzgerald family, and | wouldn't dare offend them, but | saw it all, and if | didn't speak up, | wouldn't be able to live with my conscience." "Madam, | ...... | saw it too." Another servant Jorgie also spoke up.
Jorgie glanced at Jaden and Jayla with complicated eyes, and then went on to say to Joanna, "Moreover, | heard the conversation between Jaden and Jayla that day." "They said that they hated Miss Wells and the child inside Miss Wells’ belly. They said that the child inside Miss Wells’ belly was born to compete with them for the family fortune of the Fitzgerald family, and they really hoped that Miss Wells would not be able to give birth to this child." "What?!" Joanna's face sank, and her eyes gazed deeply at Jaden and Jayla.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThese two children are only five years old, but they have minds that are better than those of teenagers. They really could have said something like that.
The old lady's heart sank, she had known how cruel the internal strife of the gentry was, in order to fight for this so-called family fortune, the happy family could be made into a bloody mess.
For example, Mike and Kieran, and before that, Tomas and Samuel.
"Don't you talk nonsense! How could Jaden and Jayla possibly harm the child in my belly! The child in my belly is their relative!" Regina didn't believe what Jorgie was saying, and she coldly scolded her, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, | will definitely sue you for slander!" "Miss Wells, I'm really not making this up, | really heard Jaden and Jayla say something like that! Not only that, | also heard that they wanted to find a way to drive you out of the Fitzgerald family!" Jorgie looked anxious, "Miss Wells, I'm telling the truth!" "Miss Wells, you're kind, Jaden and Jayla simply can't see you well, they harmed you, but you still speak for them!" "Stop it! No matter what you say, | don't believe that Jaden and Jayla would do such a thing!" As if she was afraid that Joanna would believe what Jorgie and Margaret said, Regina hurriedly grabbed her hand, "Grandma, don't listen to the nonsense! They are trying to divide us from Jaden and Jayla, | don't believe the two children would do such a vicious thing!" "Madam, | really didn't lie, it's actually not the first tthat Jaden and Jayla have harmed Miss Wells, they even deliberately spilled beads in Miss Wells’ room a few days ago, just to make her fall! When | saw that, | didn't want to make a big deal out of it and quietly asked Jessie to clean up the beads." Receiving Jorgie's look, Jessie hurriedly said, "Madam, | can testify for Jorgie that Jaden and Jayla did do such things the other day!" If only one person had said that the two kids were responsible for the bad deeds, Joanna might not have believed her, but now that several people had testified against them, she was convinced.
Her face was written with disappointment, she spoke somewhat wearily, "Jaden, Jayla, what do you want to say?!"
