Chapter 342 Annie Embarrassed
It was such shameless words, but Fionna did not feel uncomfortable at all. She even blushed
and said, “Mom, Andy and I are true love. How can we have any tricks?
“However, I’ll teach Annie well.”
As she spoke, she looked at Annie and said, “Annie, you have to listen to me. Don’t be
rude…”
Before she could finish speaking, she realized that Annie was staring blankly ahead. Her
entire face was flushed red, and her eyes were filled with ripples. It was obvious that her
heart was fluttering.
Fionna was stunned.
She followed Annie’s gaze and saw Draxton’s tall and upright figure.
Fionna’s heart skipped a beat.
Just like how men loved beautiful women, women also liked such outstanding men.
Fionna turned to look at Annie. She reached out and pulled her arm, reminding her in a low
voice, “Annie…”
Annie came back to her senses and whispered to Fionna, “Mom, is that man Draxton?”
Fionna glanced at her teasingly. “Why? Have you taken a fancy to him? Didn’t you say that
he’s not worthy of you?”
Annie’s face turned red as she stomped her foot in anger. “Mom!”
Fionna smiled. She and Old Madam Beck looked at each other. Old Madam Beck also saw
Annie’s emotions. She smiled and said, “See, I told you that Annie wouldn’t disappoint us.”
She looked at Annie and whispered, “Annie, your mother didn’t disappoint your
grandmother. I hope you won’t disappoint her either. If you defeat Isabella, then you’ll be
Mrs. Lockwood.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnnie’s face turned solemn. She glanced at Draxton, who looked extremely compatible with
Isabella. Instantly, she felt as if her heart raced and ached at the same time. It was painful
and itchy, and she wished she could immediately replace Isabella.
Her expression changed. It was fine if she did not like Draxton, but now, she clearly fell in
love with Draxton at first sight. How could she tolerate another woman by his side?
Not only did she wanted to replace Isabella, but she also wanted to get rid of Isabella’s
child.
Draxton, such a handsome man must be hers!
She wanted to be like her mother and get rid of his first wife to take over the position
herself.
Once she became the wife of Draxton, not only would she be able to have that man, but she
would also be a great contributor to the Beck family.
Meanwhile, Paul and Andy had already exchanged a few pleasantries with Draxton.
Isabella stood at the side and listened quietly. She had no intention of greeting the female
guests.
Old Madam Beck had a problem with that.
She curved her lips in disdain and said, “One has to marry a virtuous wife, and the wife has
to be capable as well. This Miraculous Doctor has been labeled Miraculous Doctor for
nothing. As Mrs. Lockwood, she actually doesn’t act like a hostess at all. She’s really a
burden to her man.”
At this moment, Old Madam Beck looked down on Isabella even more. She felt that such a
woman would not become a man’s virtuous wife at all, nor would she be liked by men.
“You’re Miraculous Doctor, aren’t you?” she said lightly. Apart from being polite, she also
had a cold aura. That was her sense of superiority.
Isabella turned around and looked at Old Madam Beck. She had heard Draxton talk about
this legend. Old Madam Beck was not a nobody. She helped her niece suppress her
daughter-in-law. The aunt and niece worked together to kill her daughter-in-law, James’s
mother. At the same time, she supported her niece, Fionna, to ascend the throne and
ostracized James. She could really be said to be the strangest in the world.
Isabella did not have a good impression of the Beck family. Naturally, she would not lower
herself to greet them.
At that moment, Old Madam Beck took the initiative to speak to her first, and her tone was
obviously unfriendly. Isabella cocked her brows and replied, “That’s right, I’m Miraculous
Doctor.”
Old Madam Beck said, “As Mr. Lockwood’s wife, shouldn’t you greet the female guests?
“It was said that Miraculous Doctor grew up in a commoner’s family, so it was
understandable that her etiquette was poor.
“However, you should still be polite. Is this how you treat your elders?”
Isabella looked at Old Madam Beck in surprise. Although Old Madam Beck was a top-notch
person, she did not expect her to pick on her and reprimand her as soon as she opened her
mouth.
Isabella was a little puzzled. She said, “I’ve always been like this. I can’t be bothered with
people I hate. Moreover, my elders didn’t say that there was anything wrong with my
attitude. They all praised me for being polite!”
Old Madam Beck choked.
“Are you pretending to be confused or are you really confused? Am I not an elder?” Old
Madam Beck stared at Isabella with a knife-like gaze. An invisible threat crushed towards
her.
In the past, as long as she showed such a look, Ximena would not dare to look into her
eyes. She would be very afraid to shrink away from her gaze and obediently admit defeat.
Ximena was Andy’s first wife, James’s biological mother’s name.
Unfortunately, Old Madam Beck was up against Isabella.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIsabella’s expression also turned cold. She looked at Old Madam Beck with an even colder
gaze and said, “Old Madam Beck, what kind of elder are you to me? Don’t forget your
identity. You’re just a guest we invited.” The atmosphere was filled with tension, and the
unhappiness quickly attracted the man’s attention.
Draxton also looked over.
Seeing this scene, Annie, who was vexed that she did not dress up carefully, suddenly
brightened up and rushed out without thinking.
“Grandma, is there a misunderstanding between you and Miraculous Doctor? Why does
Miraculous Doctor look unhappy?
“Hey, it’s fine, it’s fine. Miraculous Doctor, have something to drink. It’s such a good day.
Don’t ruin your mood,” she said.
Isabella almost thought that she was the guest.
Isabella looked at the bluish-purple drink that Annie handed to her and sneered. She asked,
“Your name is Annie?”
“Is she the ‘special method’ James mentioned who would seduce Draxton?” wondered
Isabella.
Annie did not know what was going on. Her face flushed red as she quickly glanced at
Draxton. Her eyes were watery, and anyone could tell that she had fallen in love.
Isabella knew that Annie was eyeing her man, so why would she allow Annie to continue?
Therefore, she chuckled and said, “Miss Annie Beck, I heard that your mother, Fionna, was a
mistress that killed your father’s original wife, causing you and your brother, the two
illegitimate children, to become official. Could it be that you also plan to inherit your
mother’s mantle and become a mistress?
“However, I have to remind you that you might not have the chance to be a mistress in
front of my man. He is only devoted to me.
“If you don’t want to embarrass yourself, it’s better to dispel your little scheme.”
