Chapter 346 Wife Was Unreliable

Taking a sip of tea, Bob said slowly, "it's hard for Essie to bear such a heavy burden of Xu family. You must support her more."

"Don't worry, Dad. I'll pick it up for her." Holding Essie's hands, Zac said it as a vow.

"Have you caught the man who wanted to kill Essie last time?" Asked Lucy, whose heart trembled with fear at the thought of that incident.

"Yes, he was killed." Zac said understatedly.

"God damn it!" Lucy breathed a sigh of relief. People who hold a candle to the devil deserve death.

"Have you found out who killed him?" Frowning, Essie wanted to know whether he was her friend or enemy.

"He was shot to death with one shot, and the method was clean and neat, leaving no trace. This person is definitely not someone ordinary. It's impossible to find him in a short time." Said Zac, who seemed to be deep in thought.

"Is the man who wanted to kill Essie on our side?" Holy blinked his big black eyes.

"It's hard to say. Maybe they are on revenge." Zac touched his chin and said thoughtfully. 'it doesn't matter who he is. It's okay as long as he is not your enemy. Otherwise, the stupid woman will be in greater danger. He has no time to be her bodyguard all day long.'

"The killer must be hired by Elizabeth, who is heartless and merciless to do any illegal things."

Lucy wanted to skin her, pull out her tendons and drink her blood to vent her anger.

"Don't worry. I will protect Essie. No one can hurt her as long as I am here. Take care of yourself." As long as she was still his woman, no one dared to hurt her. If someone wanted to hurt her, he was looking for death.

Bob and Lucy nodded. What they needed was his promise. After all, Hanson was in Yang City and could not get involved in the power of Dragon City. They had to depend on Zac now.

After that, Lucy went to the kitchen to prepare the meal, and Bob was helping. Zac wandered around in the villa and walked into Essie's room. He stared at a Barbie doll by the bed and asked, "is it yours?"

"So what?" She took the doll to him. She had locked the door of the children's room and packed up all the toys in case of his suspicion. Unexpectedly, there was still something missed. It must be Mili who left it at the time when she played.

"Do you still like to play it?" Zac sneered, raising his eyebrows.

The words sounded a little strange to her, and she couldn't help but wonder, 'what does he mean by saying that she still likes to play it? Did she like playing it before?'

"Who says that only children can play the Barbie doll. Adults can also like it."

"Yeah, a freak." Zac flicked her forehead and grabbed the doll from her hand. He looked at it, shook his head and said, "this one is too ordinary. It's not as interesting as the one you gave me."

Essie was shocked and asked, "when did I ever give you a Barbie doll?"

"When you were Cathy." Zac said in a teasing tone. "It's your tailor-made. You give it to me as a token of love."

With hands on her forehead, she couldn't believe that she had done such a thing. "Why have I never heard you talk about this?" she asked.

"I almost forget the trifles more than a decade ago. I didn't remember it until I saw this doll today." Zac shrugged and said in a careless tone.

"What about my doll?" She curled her lips and felt a little disappointed.

"I don't know where they have gone. Maybe they have been thrown into the trash can." Said Zac in a casual way. It seemed that he didn't take it to heart at all.

Essie was furious. It was her tailor-made version, how memorable it was! It was a waste to him.

She grabbed the doll from his hand and demanded, "from now on, stay away from my Barbie."

"I'm not interested in such a childish thing." Lying on the back of the sofa and putting his hands on the back of his head, Zac sneered. After a short silence, he seemed to think of something, and his deep cold eyes flashed. "Oh, right. I forgot to ask you one thing. Your mother is aunt Luce, the woman who had been Mrs. Luce in the past, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Essie rolled her eyes at him.

"But she is so different from what she used to be. I think she is pretty even at an old age." He rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully.

"My mother had a plastic surgery," "When my mother and I moved out of the Xu family, we went to Yanf City. Elizabeth wanted to kill us. She hired a killer to kill us. Luckily, father came in time to stop us from being killed. But my mother's face was scratched and her face was disfigured."

After taking a pause, she continued, "my father has a good friend who is a famous doctor with superb medical skills. He is willing to help my mother reduce trees to recover her look. My mother knew that Elizabeth would not give up. She would definitely continue to send people to kill us. After discussing with my father, she decided to change her face. Later, the surgery was successful. That was why my

mother was look like this. My father asked a friend to change the names of my mother and me in the police station. Then Elizabeth can't find us. "

She tried her best to keep her voice calm, while the anger in her chest was burning uncontrollably. Zac held her shoulder and said, "Elizabeth's good life is over."

Yes. She said in her heart that she would let her have nothing. She would repay them in double the pain that she suffered from them.

"The biggest misfortune in my mother's life was to marry Baron, and the luckiest thing was to marry my father." She turned to look out of the window. A wry smile emerged on her face. "The thing she feared most is that I repeat her tragedy."

Zac's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly. How could he not understand what she meant. "Are you mocking me?"

Essie shook her head and said, "you are not Baron, but your mother is even more than Vicki. You have lost your memory, and you don't remember what happened in the Rong Mansion before, but I remember clearly. On the new year's day yesterday, she even forced me to divorce you. After all, she and Elizabeth are very close, so it's natural that she doesn't like me. "

Zac's face darkened. A glint of amusement flashed across his eyes. "Just ignore what she says in the future." Just as the old saying goes, he who stays near ink gets stained black. Mom had been hanging out with a vicious woman like Elizabeth all day long, no wonder she was always so weird.

"She's my mother-in-law. If I ignore her, I'll be blamed for not being filial." She smiled faintly and her tone was like a cold wind.

"Filial piety is not stupidity. I guess mom has been suffering from some kind of menopausal syndrome. She gets her head in a mess. If she succeeds in menopause, she will recover her normal judgment

soon." Zac comforted.

Hearing this, Essie felt it was like a joke. It seemed that Zac didn't know his mother at all. That's right, Mary had been wearing a mask of hypocrisy. No one would be able to see her true features under it unless someone tear it down.

"It's new year's day and I think the dinner is almost ready. Let's go downstairs to have dinner." She stood up and walked out of the room.

It was a peaceful and harmonious day. Essie thanked her mother's cooperation. After dinner, Lucy specially asked Essie to stay at home to celebrate the new year with them. Zac didn't say much and went back alone.

As soon as he left, Essie went to Eva's in a hurry and took Pana and the children back.

"Has daddy gone?" Mili asked, looking a little disappointed. Noticing what Mili was doing, Essie gently touched her head, and the sadness in her mouth spread from the tip of her tongue to the bottom of her heart.

She knew that they were sensible, and in order not to make her sad, they chose not to meet Zac. in fact, they were still eager to see him, their biological father.

"Well, let's go to the lake to set off fireworks later." She forced a smile at the kids.

Holy hastily brought the fireworks from the storage room.

Mili was a child. When she saw the fireworks, she was thrilled and clapped her hands. "Oh, we are setting off fireworks."

"I want to put a colorful bead container in it." Then she took out a firework stick from Holy's hand.

"Okay, but be careful." Essie led them out of the house.

On the third day of the lunar new year, Essie went back to the villa of Xu family to greet the elders with Holy. Both uncles lived in the manor, except Bles. It was said that he felt uncomfortable and went to the United States for recuperation. But Essie thought he was avoiding something deliberately.

"A married daughter is like the splashed water. In every festivals, her mother-in-law should be the first." Elizabeth said with sarcasm.

Essie smiled coldly and said, "the woman who has married others is still the daughter of the Xu family. As a daughter-in-law who has a scandal, I don't know whose family she is from."

When Vicki heard this, her heart trembled fiercely. The uncles looked at each other with a grave expression on their faces. How could they not hear the underlying meaning of Essie's words.

Elizabeth's face turned blue, but she immediately calmed down. Loren had already been hidden by Bles. As long as she resisted to deny it, there was nothing Essie could do to her.

"I know you hate me for what happened in the past, so you're always against me. But it doesn't matter. I'm a broad-minded person and I'm willing to treat you as my daughter."

"Her mother has married other man and her family name is Yi now. She is not a member of our Xu family at all." Said Valery fiercely.

"All right. Baron is just in a coma and will soon recover. Now that he wants Cathy to take over the Xu family for him, we should respect his decision." Said one of uncle.

"What if she takes advantage of this time to collude with outsiders and occupy the Xu's Group?" Valery asked angrily.

"You think too much. My purpose of sitting in this position is to make sure that the Xu family will always have the surname Xu, not Wang, or any other surname. The reason why Mr. Baron issued this approval before the accident must be that he perceived someone's treacherous behavior, so he made provisions. " Essie replied in a slow, clear and powerful voice.
