Chapter 305: Hugo and His Wife Want to Stay at Whispering Pines

She repeatedly caused trouble for Tina, which made him loathe her. Now she even dared to try to hit Juliet in the Reed family home. Who gave her such courage?

"Jasper, it was Juliet who deliberately mocked me, so I..." Willow's eyes filled with tears as she sobbed, "How could I not listen to you? Everything I do is for your good, for the good of the Reed family. You must believe me!" Willow cried bitterly, hoping to soften Jasper's heart. However, despite her performance, the Reed family members remained unmoved.

"Mrs. Ward," Jasper said firmly, "I don't want to repeat myself. Please leave."

Juliet crossed her arms and smiled slowly, "Mrs. Ward seems to be crying very hard. Do you need eye drops? I have plenty in my room; they might help you cry more convincingly." Seeing Willow's exaggerated performance disgusted her. Who wouldn't know how to act?

Despite squeezing out tears, Willow couldn't soften Jasper's heart. Feeling both embarrassed and angry, she picked up her tea-stained coat and left awkwardly.

As soon as Willow left, Jasper's frown relaxed, and he turned to Tina on the sofa. "Tina, are you alright?"

He had planned a five-day trip but finished his business in three days and returned early. He didn't expect to find Willow causing trouble at Whispering Pines and trying to hit someone.

Willow's repeated visits to harass Tina infuriated him. Moreover, her attempts to meddle in Reed family affairs were unwelcome.

No matter what, the Reed family's matters were not for an outsider to decide. Willow's ambition to become the matriarch of the Reed family depended on his willingness.

Tina glanced at him indifferently. "I'm fine."

"Jasper, are you really going to marry Mrs. Ward?" Juliet asked as soon as Willow left.

Jasper glared at her. "Nonsense! When did I ever say I would marry her?"

Due to the relationship between their families and Willow's previous close ties with Liliosa, she often visited the Reed family home. Everyone could see her intentions, but no one spoke of it openly.
