Chapter 197
Arya turned to look at her hand and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
Bridget's hand was severely scalded, but she was exceptionally calm. "Arya, this is a bowl of boiling
soup."
Today, Jasper's every move really stimulated her. At first, he didn't want to get married. But because of
Arya, he agreed to it. Today, at the dinner table, he expressed his concern about Arya on regardless in
the high-profile occasion. Jasper meant to upset her.
Daisy could not sit still and urged, "Hurry to the hospital."
Bridget did not move but looked at Arya. "Arya."
She looked hurt. "I hope you can treat Xavier well. Don't be half-hearted."
Arya pursed her lips tightly. "I know."
She stood there calmly.
She had never done it. If Xavier didn't believe her, she had nothing to say.
Bridget endured the pain in her hand and forced a smile. "I know, Arya, you must not have done it on
purpose, and I won't care, because you are Xavier's woman."
Arya didn't seem to understand what she meant, and her expression was faint. "You should go and
have your hand treated. Scalds can leave scars."
Daisy couldn't help but get angry. "Jasper, hurry up and take her to the hospital!"
Jasper looked at Arya as if he was laughing at her and asking her whether Xavier was a good husband.
At a time, he didn't even stand up and say a word for her.
At the same time, he felt sad. Since there was a distance between them, He didn't even have the right
to care about her.
"Jasper, take Bridget to the hospital now." Seeing that Jasper was so apathetic about it, Mr. Jones was
also unhappy.
Bridget reached out to grab Jasper's hand, but he dodged. "Let's go."
Bridget's expression froze. She was annoyed with Jasper, but she did not show it on her face.
Jasper and Bridget left, and the dining room quieted down.
No one could eat.
Daisy asked coldly, "What's going on?"
Arya saw Bridget deliberately pour the soup on her own hand. 'If she told the truth, would others
believe her?'
They were all her family.
Arya lowered her eyes slightly. "I don't know why the soup fell on her hand."
She glanced at Xavier secretly. His expression was so calm that Arya could not detect a single trace of
emotion.
He didn't say a word from beginning to end.
Daisy couldn't bottle up her anger. "You don't know? There were just the two of you there. You don't
know why did the soup fall on her hand? She said she didn't blame you. Why didn't you even say a
word of apology? Indeed, you were once imprisoned. And you haven't changed even if you are
released. I was really crazy to let you in."
Daisy was extremely disappointed with Arya. She had originally thought that when Arya became part of
the family, she would try to accept Arya. After all, she was Ryan's mother.
But today...
Daisy was getting furious.
"You go back now."
Xavier, who had not said anything, finally spoke. His eyes slowly fell on Arya.
Arya also looked at him. In fact, at this time, she didn't need Xavier to speak anything for her.
As long as he trusted her. However, she could not see the trust in Xavier's eyes.
Arya silently looked away. Perhaps their relationship was really not that strong. It was not like no matter
what the situation was, they could trust each other completely.
Perhaps her confession was just her own wishful thinking. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
She had seen her mother's failed marriage, so in her relationship with Xavier, she never hid anything
from Xavier and poured out what was in her heart.
She hoped that they could trust each other.
Xavier looked at her. "I told you to go back. Don't you understand me?"
She wanted to know what Xavier was thinking. 'Does he believe me?'
But it was all in vain. She had no idea what he was thinking.
Arya suppressed all her emotions. Even if she was really sad now, she didn't cry. She didn't look at
Xavier anymore and said to Daisy, "I'll go now."
After leaving the house of the Jones Family, she walked alone by the roadside. It was not easy to take
a taxi here, so she could only walk along the roadside.
After thinking for a long time, she took out her cell phone and sent Xavier a text message, I'll wait for
you at the villa.
If he didn't believe in her, then there was no need to make him difficult. After all, it was his parents and
sister.
It might hurt, but she could survive. The worst days had passed, and the current situation was nothing
compared to that.
In the house, the dining room was very quiet. Xavier sat in a chair with his cell phone in his hand. He
lowered his eyes and stared at the words on the screen. His hand slowly tightened.
"Xavier, she's really not suitable for our family."
Daisy felt that Xavier was on Bridget's side. After all, they were brother and sister.
And from the beginning to the end, he did not say a word for Arya, which made Daisy very satisfied
with Xavier's attitude.
She once asked what was so great about Arya. There were plenty of beautiful women.
Xavier put his phone back in his pocket and looked up at Daisy. "What do you mean?"
"When Ryan gets better, you can break up with that woman. You can give her as much money as she
wants. Look at her. How complicated her relationship is."
Daisy saw that Xavier was so calm and thought that he had the idea of leaving Arya, so she made a
suggestion.
The expression on Xavier's face froze. "What about Ryan?"
"Ryan is a child of our Jones Family. Of course, he has to stay at the Jones Family. We'll give her more
compensation."
Xavier looked straight at Daisy and smiled. "Mom, you're a mother. You should know the pain of a child
being separated from his mother."
Daisy didn't say anything. She knew it was inhumane to make such a suggestion, but Arya's past was
simply unacceptable.
Xavier leaned back in his chair, his voice deep and intriguing. "I used to look down on her because she
was a woman who loved money very much."
Xavier said in a low, hoarse voice, "At that time, I didn't know that Ryan was my son. There was a time
when Ryan was kidnapped, I watched how she protected Ryan with my own eyes. When I saw that
scene, I couldn't help but be moved. At that time, I changed my mind about her.
When I found out that she was framed, I was getting restless. I didn't know exactly how she went to jail,
but I knew one thing, she was still strong in that environment and gave birth to Ryan. How difficult that
was!
You should know that pregnant women can apply for bail pending trial with restricted liberty of moving,
but she was still in prison in that case. Why couldn't her bail be approved? I know about her. Although
it's not comprehensive, it's enough for me to know what kind of person she is.
Ryan's illness had a lot to do with the environment she was in while she was pregnant. I saw her crying
so hard with Ryan in her arms. I told myself that I wanted to protect her from any harm, but when I saw
her being questioned, I couldn't protect her. I can't even say a word for her. Do you know how I feel?
You are my family. I should listen to your advice. I can only watch you scold her. I can't speak for her.
Because you are my mother, I can't blame you for anything.
I can't even give her a wedding even if she marries me. Because I want you to be satisfied. "
Xavier stood up from his chair and looked at Daisy. "Maybe she's really not suitable for the Jones
Family, but she's the one I choose. I hope you can understand. I hope our family can live in harmony,
but it seems impossible now. I won't bring her back in the future."
Xavier picked up his coat and walked out of the dining room, leaving the Jones Family.
Daisy sat still, speechless after hearing what Xavier had said.
Her eyes fell on Mr. Jones. "My darling, do you think we made it difficult for our son?"
Mr. Jones sighed and stood up from his chair.
'Why did Xavier say so much? It is too clear. After all, he was still speaking for Arya.'
Whether Arya did it or not, he didn't like her very much...
