Chapter 23 She's Ms. Logan
Hailey slowly looked away when she met Eleanor's gaze.
Standing beside her was her younger sister, Aubrey. She had a pure and lovely appearance and from time to time, she would glance at Michael in the crowd shyly.
Looking at Samuel, she said excitedly, "Old Master Moore, it's all thanks to my sister. She had been appointing Dr. Wyatt to come to treat Seb every day so that he could recover so quickly."
She didn't believe that Sebastian woke up because Eleanor married into the family and brought luck to the bridegroom.
They should thank the Logan family instead.
When Aubrey's gaze swept over Eleanor, it was filled with sarcasm.
In fact, even Eleanor herself didn't believe getting married could bring one luck. Sebastian woke up so quickly because of her supreme medical skills. She'd begun to prescribe medicine for Sebastian when she first noticed he was poisoned.
However, how dare this woman take credit? Noticing the Moores' murderous expressions, Eleanor decided to add fuel to the fire and said, "Ms. Logan, the doctors you brought all have such supreme medical skis. I think the Moores will be very grateful for your contributions."
These words aligned perfectly with Hailey's intentions. She wanted the Moores to owe her a favor.
However, little did she know that Eleanor was making enemies for her.
She took a glance at Michael and caught him shooting a gloomy glance at Hailey.
Samuel gazed at Aubrey and smiled coldly. This girl was so good at flattering herself.
Hailey stared at Sebastian, her face blushing with coyness. She said, "It's the Logan family's great honor to help Seb wake up."
Sebastian's gaze fell lightly on Hailey. It was indifferent yet cold.
"Thank you, Ms. Logan," he thanked her in a flat voice.
Waylon clenched his hands when he heard the words. His face was filled with anger. No. He couldn't let this wicked woman steal Eleanor's credit.
"Dad, who are you thanking?"
Waylon's cold voice resonated in the room. Sebastian turned to look at his son, and he felt it an eyesore when he saw his son nestling in that woman's arms.
"When someone helps you, you should say thank you out of politeness."
"Humph! So, did she ask me to go die out of politeness?"
Hailey was startled by Waylon's resounding voice.
How could she forget about this little bastard?
She'd said something harsh that day. And she would never be able to marry into the Moore family if Sebastian knew what she had said to Waylon.
Samuel had protected Waylon too well and she never got a chance to do anything to him. Luckily, he'd lost his sight and would die soon.
She wouldn't be a stepmother. Her son should be the heir of the Moore family.
"Waylon, don't talk nonsense." Sebastian was aware this his son had a temper and that he didn't like Hailey who would come to the Moore manor frequently.
Hearing her son's words, Eleanor figured out that the "Ms. Logan" mentioned by the servants was Hailey.
When this thought popped into her mind, she heard her son's husky voice. "So, you choose to believe her, not me." Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
He was only a 5-year-old boy, but he was very mature due to Sebastian's upbringing. Eleanor felt so distressed for him as if her heart was shattering into pieces.
Hailey looked at Waylon with grievance and then took a glance at Eleanor who stood in a corner calmly. With an indescribable unique charm, she stood out among the crowd. Even if she was holding a child, she still looked stunningly breathtaking.
This woman had become her greatest threat.
"Waylon, I don't know what you're talking about. Did someone say something to you? Otherwise, why would a little child say such things? To go die? Oh, that's so scary!"
"Scary? Then why don't you tell my dad what you've said to me?" Waylon's cold voice made Hailey feel as if her throat was cut by a blade and she felt cold all over.
She knew she should leave now. She turned around, looked at Sebastian, and said in a gentle and concerned voice, still maintaining an aggrieved expression, "Seb, have a good rest. I'll come to see you tomorrow."
With that, she left with her younger sister without waiting for Sebastian's response.
Eleanor took a glance at Hailey's back with a hint of weird emotions flashing across her eyes. Hailey was still useful to her because Michael would turn her into a pawn suitable for him.
"Everyone, let's go. Don't disturb Sebastian's rest."
Before leaving, Samuel took a glance at Waylon, seeming to be thinking about something.
Michael also gazed at Eleanor meaningfully before leaving.
When his gaze met Eleanor's, a meaningful smile flashed across his eyes.
Eleanor's mind spun, and a plan formed in her mind.
The room fell into awkwardness after the crowd left.
