Chapter 143 Tell Cicely the Truth
Edmond said lightly, “The house Ervin gave you belongs to Horace.”
Claudia was taken aback. She hadn’t expected that this house belonged to Horace.
Yesterday she went to see that house.
The house was well-decorated, fully furnished, and had a good layout and lighting. She only took a brief rest on the sofa and felt a sense of comfort. She immediately fell in love with the house.
She always thought it was her brother who gave it to her, but she didn’t expect the owner of the house to be Horace.
Seeing the guilty look on Horace’s face, Claudia’s heart ski pped a beat.
Horace probably wanted to compensate her, so he conspired with his brothers to conceal this matter.
But how did Edmond know?
“You investigated me?” Claudia frowned at him. “I had no idea, yet you seem to know so much. It must have been hard for you to spy on me everywhere.”
Edmond pursed his lips and remained silent.
Ever since knowing that the Friedan family had a favorable impression of Horace from top to bottom, he had been constantly sending people to monitor every move of Horace.
It was originally an obscure matter, but I couldn’t help but speak it out.

Edmond coughed and concealed his embarrassment, “The matter of the competition has been settled. Remember to prepare well and don’t let me down with my money.”
Claudia’s face darkened, her mouth twitched. She wished she could throw the box in her hands at him, but she restrained herself when she realized that the items inside the box were all unique pieces.
Just then, Abel resisted and said, “I’m not going to kindergarten, I’m not going!”
“Young master, we can’t delay any longer, or else we will be late!”
The maid, with a flushed face, chased after him in a hurry.

Abel spread his legs and ran, suddenly bumping into someone’s leg.
He looked up and saw Cicely. His face lit up with joy, “Grandma, can Abel not go to kindergarten? I want to stay at home and accompany you.”
Cicely gently picked up Abel and said, “Abel, go to kindergarten during the day and come back to accompany Grandma at night.”
Abel pouted, pulling his little face, looking very miserable.
Seeing him like this, Claudia smirked with schadenfreude, it seemed that only the school could handle this troublesome kid.
Her subtle expression fell into Edmond’s eyes, like a child watching a play.
Although it is not known what exactly happened between her and Abel, she seemed to be very happy every time she saw Abel
“suffering”.
“Happy?”
stiffen.
At some point, he walked up to her.
Claudia smirked and chuckled, “It’s quite satisfying to see a brat feeling frustrated.”
Although it seemed petty to argue with a child, but who made this little brat trick her several times!
Being bullied by a five-year-old child, what a shame!
Couldn’t she bully back and couldn’t she gloat either?
Claudia pouted, turned around with a box in her arms. Cicely hadn’t noticed her presence before, but upon seeing Edmond talking to her, she couldn’t help but glance at her a few more times.
Seeing her, Cicely’s face immediately showed astonishment, “What are you doing here?”
Seeing Claudia again, Cicely felt a bit awkward. The recent series of news had made her too embarrassed to leave the house.
First, Claudia became pregnant with someone else’s child, and the whole country knew that she had cuc kolded Edmond. Then, there was Rosalie’s affair, which made her wonder if the Lamont family had bad luck, as none of the women associated with the Lamont family seemed to have a good ending.
If it hadn’t been for the positive result of Abel’s blood test, she would have almost been so angry that she ended up in the hospital.
“Cicely, I came over here for some business,” Claudia said without elaborating. Seeing the look in Cicely’s eyes, she already knew what she was thinking.

For Cicely, she had always felt guilty, but this guilt was slowly dissipating over time.
When she heard her say “Cicely,” Cicely paused for a moment.
The last time I saw her, Claudia was still calling her mom, but today she has already started calling her Cicely.
Cicely knew that some things could never be returned to.
Her gaze turned toward Claudia’s belly, her expression complicated as she said, “I’m going to take Abel to kindergarten. Come with me, I have something to tell you.”
Claudia nodded silently.
Inside the car, Abel sat in the safety seat, sitting next to Cicely.
“Claudia, don’t blame me for taking you out. Your current identity is really not suitable for staying with the Lamont family for long…”
Cicely’s words were expressed subtly, but Claudia understood everything.
Cicely did not want to have too much contact with Edmond.
Claudia smiled knowingly and said, “I know, Cicely. I happened to have something to do, so I’ll leave first.”
Her hand gripped the doorknob, and Cicely stopped her. “Claudia, I have a few questions to ask you.”
Claudia’s hand paused.
“Did you really get involved with someone else while still married?” Cicely stared at her fixedly.
