Chapter 250 The Villagers Had Their Own Ways (1/2)
When Essie returned to the mansion, she was still in peace. There was no sign of fear of losing Purple Love in her eyes. If Essie guessed it right, Valery would soon arrive there.
As expected, after dinner, Valery walked into the house of the Rong family with a big belly.
In the past few days when Valery was away from the Rong Mansion, it was always quiet. As soon as Zac saw Valery, he frowned unconsciously, as if seeing a maggot.
”Valery, are you feeling better?” Mary helped her sit on the sofa and asked her with concern. There had been a gap between Mary and Elizabeth since Cherry and Jenny had been involved. Mary really hoped that she could fix their relationship.
”This morning, I went to the hospital for the prenatal examination. The doctor said that everything was fine, so I came to tell you now.” Valery smiled. Elizabeth had told her no matter what happened, Mary was the person Valery had to rely on, so Valery must have a good relationship with Mary.
”That's good. I've been worrying about you all the time. I'm finally relieved today.” Mary said in a gentle tone, which was totally different from that how Mary treated Essie.
On the other hand, Essie didn't want to be bothered to argue with Mary. Since Mary didn't take Essie as her daughter-in-law, Essie didn't have to be polite to her.
Valery shifted her eyes to Essie's bald ring finger and cut to the chase. ”Essie, where is your Purple Love? You always wear it on your finger, don't you? Why didn't I see you wearing it today? ”
”I am going to take a shower, so I take it off.” Essie tried to keep calm.
'You are such a bitch. You've lost the heirloom of the Rong family. What an unforgivable crime! I'll see how you explain it to Rong family later.' Valery thought to herself.
”Did you really lose your ring?” She pretended to be surprised.
Mary was shocked. At the same time, Zac also trembled with shock.
”What are you talking about? It's an expensive ring. How could I lose it?” Essie put her hand into her pocket unconsciously, as if she wanted to hide some secret.
”I went to your studio this afternoon. Your assistant said that you lost your ring and went to the police station. Did they make up a story and lie to me?” Said Valery unhurriedly.
Essie knew very well that Valery was lying. She just wanted to find an excuse to tell Mary and Zac the fact that Essie had lost the ring. If she went back to the studio in the afternoon, Amy and Jacy would close the door and beat her till she had a miscarriage.
Mary's face turned ghastly pale. ”Did you really lose your ring?”
Essie shrugged, trying to make her voice sound calm, ”No. It's just a common platinum ring. It is not Purple Love.”
