Chapter 96

Guinevere shut her eyes and suddenly slammed the phone to the ground with annoyance.

Bang! The loud bang woke Zachary up.

Zachary opened his eyes in a daze and burst into tears.

Guinevere had been living in Ford Mansion all this time. She was just like the Ford family’s daughter-in-
law, but never officially married to Weston. They were not sleeping in the same room either.

The servants in the Ford Mansion treated her like the female master in Weston’s absence. They
regarded her as Weston’s wife.

However, Guinevere knew that as long as he lived in the Ford Mansion, she would have to live with
Wendy and please her. She hurriedly picked Zachary up, hugged him in her arms, and coaxed him
gently. For some reason, Zachary had always rejected her. The more she coaxed him, the more he
cried.

Sure enough, it was not long before Wendy arrived at the sound of Zachary’s cries.

She opened the door and looked at Guinevere with a disgruntled look. “What the h*ll are you doing?
Why do you always make Zack cry?” She came in and took Zachary from Guinevere. “Grandma’s here,
don’t be afraid…” “Zach, stop crying…” she coaxed softly. Guinevere was very upset. She was
Zachary’s mother, but she got lectured by Wendy about her mishandling of the child.

He was her son. How could she not care? However, it was also true that Zack was not close to her.

Guinevere kept her head down and said nothing. Finally, Zachary stopped crying. Wendy glanced at
her, “Why isn’t Weston back today?”



Guinevere’s face changed. “Maybe he’s busy with work.”



Wendy said nothing. She walked a few steps with Zachary in her arms and hushed him to sleep. When
Zachary slept again, she put him down and walked to Guinevere. “I don’t know what’s going on
between Weston and you, but since you’ve made up your mind to marry him, I’m sure you know what
to do…” Guinevere’s eyes flickered for a moment. “I know. I’ll live like Weston, just like Uncle Chris and
you…”

Hearing her mention Chris, Wendy’s face suddenly turned cold, filled of hostility towards Guinevere.

“What happens between Chris and me has nothing to do with you! If you have the time, you might as
well find out why Weston hasn’t been home lately! I thought he’d settle down after having a baby with
you. He used to come home often to visit, but ever since you moved in, he

wouldn’t come back even if he has time!” Wendy had made herself very clear, blaming Guinevere for
Weston’s frequent absence. The colors on Guinevere’s face kept changing, and she clenched her fists.
She knew she must not refute Wendy, but…

“I don’t understand… Aunt Wendy, do you have something against me, or did I do something wrong?
Ever since I moved in, it seems like you dislike whatever I do.”

Wendy narrowed her eyes. Her beauty had matured after years, but she was, after all, nowhere nearly
as young and sharp as Guinevere, “Well, since you’ve already said so, I will make it clear. I don’t like
you. I don’t know what’s going on between Weston and you, and I don’t want to interfere with your
mess! So you better behave in front of me and don’t mess with me.”



After that, she looked at Zachary again. In a flash, she became a loving grandmother again. After
tucking him in, she turned around and left the room without taking another look at Guinevere.
