Chapter 13 Elders
Lauren’s voice came from the door of the bathroom. “Nightgowns are in the locker of the bathroom. Besides, there are brand-new custom clothes and shoes in the cloakroom. Mrs. Gibson, you are at liberty to use them. If there is anything needed, you can tell me. I’ll get some more for you.”
“I see. Thank you.” Although Lauren’s voice was as cold as Gill’s, sounding uncomfortable, Esther didn’t care much about it. She just thought that maybe that’s all wealthy families do.
“Breakfast begins at seven thirty every morning. Don’t lie in until eight o’clock again. Mrs. Gibson, I hope you will keep it in mind.”
“Alright.”
“Mr. Terence is in poor health. He usually needs to rest. He doesn’t like to be disturbed. Mrs. Gibson, I hope that you won’t disturb him too much.”
“Alright.” Esther heaved a sigh of relief. This was simply something she wanted!
She was afraid that because of Terence’s poor health, she needed to take care of him all the time. If she had to face a man she had never seen before, and this man was always sick and hurt people, that would be the most devastating thing for her.
“The most important thing is that Mr. Terence is not in good health right now and is not suitable to have children. So Mrs. Gibson, remember to use a condom every time.”
“Alright.” This was also what Esther wanted!
It seemed like this marriage wasn’t as terrifying as she had imagined. Her husband didn’t need her to keep him company, and she didn’t need to give birth to children. She could easily get the title of the fourth madam of the Gibson family!
When she defeated that shameless couple, she would make an excuse and ask Terence to divorce her. After getting some property, she would leave the Cusack family with her mother, and then bring her father back from the hospital … Thinking about it, Esther felt good.
Perhaps there was no need to divorce Terence at all. It was rumored that Terence would die in a few years.
Telling from the way he looked like when he had an attack that day, Esther thought he did suffer from a serious illness.
Esther hurriedly shook her head. How could she have such an idea? Even if she didn’t have feelings for Terence, she shouldn’t hope for his death like others!
With Lauren’s help, Esther learned some basic information about the Gibson family.
When Clark was young, he had three wives. The first wife gave him two sons and two daughters. The second wife gave birth to two daughters and one son. The third wife, Gill, had no child.
In other words, Terence was not given birth by Gill, but by Clark’s second wife. However, because Clark’s second wife died early, Terence was raised by Gill from childhood, and Gill always treated him as her own son.
After washing up and coming out of the bathroom, Esther went straight to the cloakroom and pushed the sliding door of the wardrobe open.
Clothes filled the wardrobe. All the custom-made were of big brands in different kinds of styles and colors….ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
The Gibson family was generous even if Esther was just Terence’s wife. If she were James’ wife, she would probably be given more. No wonder Anne was so proud of herself.
When Esther got dressed and went downstairs, there were already several elders in the living room.
