Chapter 52 Palm Reading (1/2)
With that, Joyce dropped her luggage away skillfully and said, ”Ashley, are you tired? Would you like to have a rest or go downstairs to have lunch now?”
Ashley looked at her watch. It was past twelve o'clock. ”Let's have dinner first.”
Joyce pushed her into the elevator. They had lunch together. The steward Bradley, the nutritionists Abbott, the gardener Dustin, the two servants Delia and Eve, and the bodyguards who were assigned to take turns to dine. The dining hall was large enough with a long table, and a group of people had a rich place to sit together.
There was not such hierarchical distinction in Jasper's house. The meal time was 7:00am for breakfast, 12:00 for lunch and 6:00pm for dinner. They either dined together, or if time was not allowed, they would dine individual. With so many people to eat every day, Ashley asked Abbott whether he could manage it.
At that time, Abbott said that the division of labor in Zhan family was not so clear, and the bodyguards and gardeners would help each other with picking vegetables and washing vegetables since they had no spare time. Later on, Ashley saw a cleaner watering the flowers while Bradley was cleaning the furniture, so she didn't feel surprised.
Ashley was drinking soup with a spoon. Everyone in the room was talking warmly. The gardener Dustin said with a bun in his mouth, ”Ashley, don't you like sunflower? There are so many sunflower in the garden. I will take some fresh ones and put them in the vases in your room. What do you think?”
After listening to this, Ashley felt a little unbearable. She shook her head and said, ”the garden is so close. I want to go downstairs to have a look at it at any time. Flowers will die if we pick them off.
Dustin narrowed his eyes and smiled, ”Ashley, you are a flower lover.”
Ashley can't consider herself as a flower lover. She used to love picking flowers, but when she saw the flowers withered in the bottle, she was a little unwilling to pick the flowers, so she gradually didn't like picking the flowers.
”Ashley, I can practice palmistry. Show me your hand, and I'll tell your marriage. I'm a good palmist. ” Dustin added.
Hearing what he said, Bradley said, ”that's true. Ashley, you may as well let Dustin have a look. There are several quite accurate divers in his family.”
Hearing this, Ashley was a little interested. She held out her right hand. Abbott and Joyce sat next to her and couldn't help but look at her hand.
Dustin held her hand and looked at her for a long time without saying anything.
”How is it ?” Abbott urged.
Dustin look on Ashley's face in which showed a penetrating power through other's heart. Ashley trembled in her mind and couldn't help to pull her hand back.
Seeing this, Dustin gave an unfathomable smile, ”Ashley, you have a good luck in love affairs. Don't worry about your marriage.”
Abbott smiled bitterly and said, ”We all know Ashley is a beautiful girl and she has a good character. There must be countless men chasing after her. You don't need to worry about her marriage.”
After lunch, Dustin offered to take her for a walk in the garden.
It was difficult to walk
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
”As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
