Chapter 695
Edith stopped in front of them, revealing a sweet smile, putting on quite the show.
“Well, little Edith, how have you been keeping?” Gary asked with feigned concern on the side.
“Much better, thank you for asking. Uncle.”
“That’s good to hear. You’re the apple in the Fairhaven family’s eye. If something happened to you, it would pain your grandpa and your mom to death! Gary’s words were intended for Jareth’s ears.
Then, with a meaningful wink at Edith, Gary hummed a tune and walked away
“What are you doing here? Jareth’s gaze was icy as he stared her down.
Tve brought some homemade ginseng tea for Grandpa, while it’s still hot.”
Edith batted her innocent eyes, “Jareth, you wouldn’t deny me the chance to serve Grandpa, would you?”
Jareth’s eyes narrowed as he lifted a finger, pointing it at her face with an oppressive force.
Without a word, his silence was more intimidating than any threat, causing Edith’s heart to race and her hands, holding the tray, to tremble slightly.
“Edith, I’m warning you, don’t play tricks. Otherwise, I’ll pull out that forked tongue of yours and chop off your treacherous legs. Just try if you don’t believe me.”

Edith glared fiercely at the unshakable tall back of the man, atid bitterly gritted her teeth.
“Heh, then let’s just see!”
Then, she changed her gloomy expression to a mask of sweetness and obedience as she entered the study.
“Grandpa, I’ve come to see you!”
Upon seeing his granddaughter, Barry momentarily cleared the gloom from his eyes, replacing it with a genial smile, “Ah, Edith, my dear”
“Grandpa, this is the soup I specially made for you with my own hands, simmered for a whole day?”
Edith placed the tray on the table and presented the bowl to Barry, This hearty dish is best for when you’re feeling down; it nourishes the body and calms the mind. Grandpa, please have a taste.”
“Edith, how did you know I’m feeling down?” Barry took a spoonful, indeed feeling less heaviness in his chest.
“Big brother just visited you, and as soon as I came in, I could see the concern in your face. There’s also an invitation on the table, is that for Jareth and Ms. Marilla’s engagement?”
Edith’s smile that is ambiguous, “It seems good news is on the horizon, right?”
“Good news? How is this considered good news!”
Barry slammed the bowl down, his temper flaring, “I only have one grandson, and he’s being toyed with by that Abernathy girl! Completely bewitched by her! He’s practically handed her half of his fortune as the betrothal gifts, and giving it to her is the same as giving it to the Abernathy group. Hasn’t he considered the consequences?
Once they’re married, I doubt it will take few years before the whole Fairhaven group falls under the control of the Abernathy family!
