You Are The Pursuit of My Life

Chapter 184

Deborah felt uncomfortable, so she only greeted the wife of Director Zachary, Diana, who she had a good relationship with. Diane reluctantly said a few words to her and then made an excuse to leave.

Usually when Diane saw her, she would be talking with her non-stop. What was going on? Deborah realized that something had gone awry, and so did Steven. On the way back, he asked her, "Aren't you quite close to Mrs. Zachary? Why is she ignoring you?" Deborah didn't know, "I don't know why either. Maybe she's going through menopause."

Steven just snorted, "What menopause? You must have offended her. Didn't I tell you that you should pay as much attention as possible when you're dealing with these people? Director Zachary will be promoted soon. We can't afford to offend him."

Deborah felt upset after being nagged by Steven, but she did not dare to refute him. She returned home in a fit of anger, but no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't figure out the reason everyone had ignored her.

Over the next few days, the more Margaret thought about her situation at home, the more unsettled she felt. In the past few years, had she been living in a bed of lies? To be honest, she did not have a good impression of Lily in the beginning. It was her good friend, Marie who had repeatedly praised Lily and said that she was beautiful and gentle. As a result, she began to like Lily.

Although she liked Lily, she had not planned on matchmaking her with her son, not until Edric met Irene.

The ideal daughter-in-law in Margaret's eyes not only needed to be beautiful, but she had to come from a good background as well. Irene did not come from a good background, so she instinctively disliked her. However, her son did not listen to her and treated Irene like she was his entire world.

She had been unhappy so she had gone to talk to Marie. Naturally, Marie had agreed with her and told her that Irene wasn't even worthy of being Lily's maid. She told Margaret that rather than marrying someone with no background or identity, Edric would be better off marrying a politician's daughter. That would be better for his career too.

Margaret thought about it and agreed. She could tell that Lily's feelings for her son were sincere. So, in order to make Irene back down, Margaret chose to stick closely to Lily.

As they got close to each other, she started to feel that Lily really was a good person. Lily knew her preferences well and everything she said made her happy. With such an understanding daughter-in-law by her side, her life would definitely be well.

After Edric and Irene got married, she still felt uncomfortable in her heart, and still could not bring herself to like Irene. No matter how nicely Irene treated her, she felt the same. Meanwhile, Lily clearly knew that Edric was married but she still came to see her every now and then. She claimed she was visiting to keep her company and make her happy.

She used to believe Lily firmly, but now, after hearing all this bad news about Lily, she suddenly felt like she had been cheated. Had Lily been playing tricks on her all these years?

how Deborah had shamelessly seduced her best friend's husband to gain such a position, Margaret began to suspect that Lily had been planning something from the start just like her mother. This idea made Margaret very uncomfortable. When she thought about how brazen Lily had been about wanting to get pregnant with Edric's child, Margaret became more and more suspicious, and thought, "Had it been
