After taking a shower and changing her clothes, Odette went downstairs for dinner. When she came here, she did not have time to look around the house. Now that she saw it, she discovered that this was a very big villa about three stories tall. Even the Lawson family villa could not be compared to this villa. Antique vases and fancy paintings were hanging on the walls. It looked luxurious and low-key. It could be said that Eric Smith had a good eye.
After Eric finished his meal, he sat in his wheelchair and walked out. A man at the door immediately went forward to open the door for him. His attitude was respectful. He must be Eric's assistant."Where are you going?" Odette asked hesitantly. She saw that he was quiet and did not speak much during the meal. There was no intimacy between the two of them.
"Do I need to report to you?" Eric turned around in annoyance. He saw that Odette wanted to follow him but stopped because of his words. His heart softened and he could not help but say, "I'm going to work at the company. You can rest if you are tired. If you are bored at home, you can take a stroll on the streets."
Odette replied, "Okay!" Other than this, she didn't know what to say either. At this moment, the man behind Eric took out a card. he took a step forward and said respectfully. "Madam, this is the Unlimited card of the young master that prepared for you. You can buy whatever you want when you go shopping."
Odette was slightly stunned. So the value of her existence was to accompany him to eat every day, then go shopping to buy things? If that was the case, she might be able to use the money in the card to treat her mother in the hospital. Although they had just gotten married, it would not be inappropriate for her to use his money now, after all, he was her legal husband. And what she lacked the most right now was money.
Thinking this, Odette reaches out to receive the card. "Thank you." She turned around with the card in her hand, but she did not see the face of Eric had turned dark the moment she took the card. In the car, the driver looked at Eric's gloomy face and could not help but ask, "Sir, are you still thinking about madam?"
"Find someone to follow her," Eric ordered. This woman knew that he was disabled but she was still willing to marry him, so she had a motive. "Sir, I have confirmed that Madam is indeed the young lady of the Lawson family, but not the previous one." The corner of Eric's mouth curled up, "The Lawson family is bold to do things like this." "Do you want me to go to the Lawson family?"
"No need." Eric interrupted him, "This marriage is only for outsiders to see. I never hope that the Lawson family can help me. No matter who I marry, it will be the same for me." At the wedding, he saw Beth, his childhood 'fiancee.' The woman who should have been his wife was flirting with his older brother, Joey. "Also, did you find out about Bella, who saved me a month ago?" He went to that alley to find some clues about that woman. Unfortunately, there were no surveillance cameras nearby, so he could not find any clues.
"I've already gone to investigate, but there's still no news for now. If it doesn't work, I'll send people to every house to find her!" In the old street that was on the verge of demolition, many houses were already empty. The rest were people who had lived there since young, and they were unwilling to move. "And what about those people?"
The driver hesitated for a moment but still said the truth. "We are working on it, Sir." You need to verify those people's identities as soon as possible." Eric's eyes were cold as a dangerous light flashed through it. That night, not only his older brother Joey's men were involved in the assassination, but also a mysterious force. He needed to find out who those men were and what their motive was.
"Yes!" The driver nodded and asked again, "Sir, what about Miss Yang?" Before he finished speaking, Eric's cold gaze landed on him, making him immediately shut his mouth, 'Sorry, I shouldn't have said too much." After the meal, Odette rushed to the hospital. The people from the Lawson family promised to pay her mother's medical fees after the wedding. She wanted to see if the money had been transferred to her account.
After reaching the hospital, Odette went to find the doctor who was treating her mother. The doctor said that after most patients were paralyzed for a year or two, their bodies would not be able to withstand it and they would suffer from organ failure. However, her mother was lucky. She did not show any signs of organ failure, which increased the hope of recovery in the future.
Odette thanked the doctor and went into the ward. Odette sat beside the bed and looked at her mother whose face was as pale as a paper sheet. She held her mother's cold hand tightly. "Mom, I am married. Forgive me for acting on my own, but you can rest assured that this identity is no different to me. Besides, Eric treats me very well. Mom, you don't have to worry about me."
Although she knew that her mother couldn't hear her, she still used to sharing everything with her mother immediately. In this way. she felt that her mother was still with her. Eric's lower body was crippled. This marriage was just a formality. So she was no different from before. "Mom, you should rest first. I'm going out to buy some daily necessities."
Odette took her bag and walked out of the hospital. She didn't have that much money on her. She usually worked part-time to earn some money to pay for her mother's medical expenses. This morning Eric gave her a black card, which helped her a lot. Odette bought some daily necessities. While she was walking out, she heard a familiar voice at the door of a premium bag store.
"Their brand is not bad. The skincare products I bought before were all here." "Beth, your taste is good. Let's go and take a look." The world was so big, why did she have to meet Beth whenever she went? Odette did not want to meet Beth. She originally planned to hide for a while before walking out. However, things do not go as one wishes. While she was hiding, it was already late and Beth had discovered her. "Sister, why are you here?"
