The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 456 The Best Sister-in-Law

The first time Laura visited Holden Residence, the only hostility she encountered was a sharp glare from Cassie. Aside from that, both Charles and Wesley were incredibly welcoming, making her feel at ease.

Charles' kind words touched Laura, gradually easing her initial nervousness.

After chatting for a while, Charles suggested that Wesley take Laura on a tour of the estate. Without hesitation, Wesley took her hand and led her straight to the grand garden at the back of Holden Residence.

The garden was beautifully designed, with vibrant flowers in full bloom, butterflies fluttering about, and the air thick with a sweet fragrance. Not far from the garden, the estate even had a dedicated beekeeper tending to hives that produced fresh honey.

As they strolled and talked, Laura felt like she was in a dream. Then,

unexpectedly, Cassie approached with a group of maids. However, she was now entirely different from earlier. Her face was lit with a warm smile, her eyes soft and welcoming.

"Laura, I'm so sorry!" Cassie called out sweetly, "When Wesley first brought you home, I was in a terrible mood because I'd just had an argument with my father. I took my frustration out on you, and that was wrong of me." Her voice was gentle, her expression sincere.

"I shouldn't have treated you that way. Please forgive me."

She beamed at Laura and clasped her hands together. "You're kind-hearted, aren't you? Won't you forgive me just this once?"

Before Laura could respond, Cassie gestured to one of the maids, who stepped forward carrying a tray. Smiling, Cassie lifted the largest box from the tray. "I even prepared a gift for you. Look, a pearl necklace! And these smaller ones come as a set."

Cassie stepped forward, holding up the necklace. "Let me put it on you! I want Wesley to see if I have good taste."

Given how much effort Cassie had put into this, neither Laura nor Wesley had the heart to refuse. Cassie carefully fastened the necklace around Laura's neck, then stepped back with satisfaction.

"Beautiful!" Cassie clapped her hands, admiring her own work. "Wesley, doesn't she look amazing in the necklace I picked out?"

She grinned mischievously. "Laura, with your fair skin and elegant neckline, you're made for beautiful jewelry! Once you marry Wesley, I'll take care of all your accessories moving forward!"

Cassie spoke so quickly that Laura barely had a chance to respond. Instead, she looked to Wesley for help. Wesley chuckled and nodded. "Alright, but don't go back on your word."
