Forced Marriage: My Wife, My Redemption by Lilyheart

Chapter 28: What did you do?

Desmond was happy at his unexpected harvest. George Brown is really a loser he couldn’t fathom why he was able to mingle in the upper circle of Country A alongside with rich families when he can’t even boast of any of his daughters being well mannered or trained.

Davis sat quietly in the sitting room observing the interactions coldly, he is certain that Jessica isn’t friendly with Desmond but whatever plot she has in stock—is not a good one.

With the strong conviction he felt, he sighed at the prospect of seeing Desmond in fury when he discovers— he was calculated by a mere daughter of the Brown family.

Desmond glanced at Jessica’s innocent face, he couldn’t bear to disappoint her expectation. With a slight nod, he accepted the bottle from her, his gaze challenging to Davis.

"Nephew, your wife seems to have more sense of responsibility and probity —you have to cherish her, you know", he snarled.

Davis nodded at his confrontation "What more should I expect from a woman you have taken the effort and time to chose for me?" He snarled, his tone icy.

"Davis, you don’t have to talk to Uncle this way. I believe he must made some of his decision bearing you in mind", she said glancing lightly at Davis.

"He really bore me in my mind — I can see the proof with the way you are all over him", he muttered coldly.

Jessica smiled knowingly, she didn’t expect Davis to pick up her intention. She smiled inwardly as she scored him a point in her heart. Since Desmond has visited for a spot check it will be unfair not to give an answer he so much desired.
