Chapter 55

Avery

We soon reached Mrs Barrington’s residence.

Her house was a sprawling mansion with many floors.

Decorative vegetation and flowers brightened up the atmosphere around the house.

After we came down from the car, Mrs Barrington led me into the house.

She took me into a lounge hall and refreshments was served by the servants. She asked me to sit comfortably.

“I am going to call my husband. Please wait for a little while.” Mrs Barrington said to me before she left the lounge hall.

I was famished so I did not try to pretend. One by one, I put the pastries the servants brought into my mouth as I waited.

I put my babies on the chair I am sitting.

Holding them did not tire me but I was worried that I might be inconveniencing them as I carried them in my arms.

Their lovely eyes roamed everywhere.

As Mrs Barrington brought me into this hall, I made sure I observed every person we passed.

I did not leave the servants out.

I know Mrs Barrington had not shown me everywhere the Barrington’s mansion has to offer but I can assuredly say that they have few werewolves here.

Aside from the scanty werewolves they have, the rest of the people I encountered are either halfbloods or humans.

Although I believed that Mrs Barrington’s intentions and motives towards -me is pure, I can not help but be vigilant.

Her mind can change anytime.

The minds of mortals had always been elusive.

was not going to use my livelihood to test the unknown.

The door that led to the lounge hall opened.

I dropped the pastry I was about to put in my mouth before looking up.

Mrs Barrington had returned.

A stern man was on her tail.

They sat on the couch opposite me.

“I am Avery. I am pleased to meet you.” I greeted first.

I wanted to leave a good first impression.

First impressions matters a lot.

If a person’s first impression is bad, it might be harder to change the public’s opinion later.

First impressions are very difficult to change.

Besides, the reason I was working hard on my first impression is that I would love to be Mrs Barrington’s daughter if I can.

I have thought about it in the car when we are on the way here.

I did not want to waste Mrs Barrington’s time.

It is better to tell her my decision as soon as possible.

I did not want to leave her hanging.

-I did not want to shamelessly enjoy her care before leaving heartlessly.

It would be better for me and my survival if I become the Barrington’s daughter.

Since it would be beneficial for me, I am going to try my best to get it. I did not want to be wishy washy.

I don’t want to waste the time I and the Barrington’s have.

“Darling, this is the girl I told you about. I wish for her to acknowledge ust as her parents.” Mrs Barrington said to her husband.

She turned to me, “This is my husband Rocky.”

I observed Rocky Barrington carefully.

He had black hair with a small patch of grey hair at his temples.

The patch of grey hair did not make him look old. Instead, he looked fashionable and handsome.

It was clear that he took care of his figure.

His black eyes stared at me with suspicion.
