"Whenever I think of that female celebrity who splashed sulfuric acid on you before, I get scared. Now, with your successful career and love life, you’re a winner in everyone’s eyes, and countless people envy you. Annie has been jealous of you since childhood, and now that you’re doing better in every aspect, she doesn’t know how to be more jealous."
"A woman’s jealousy can be terrifying, and they can easily hurt others just because they’re jealous. Joanna, you must be cautious and guard against her. I always feel that she won’t give up so easily."
Joanna looked at Aria’s worried and caring gaze and nodded, "Okay, don’t worry, I’ll be careful. From now on, she won’t be able to get close to easily. Let’s not talk about my issues, tell about yours."
"Mine?" Aria was taken aback, "What do you want to know?"
"I heard that Lady Octavia often cos here to visit Stacy recently. Is that true? Ashton told that she seems to want to make up for her past mistakes and restore her relationship with her family."
"As for her..." Aria was silent for a few seconds, then nodded with a flat tone, "She has indeed co here a few tis recently."
"What do you think of it?" Joanna asked.
The conflict between Aria and Lady Octavia is much deeper than that between Joanna and Lady Octavia.
Lady Octavia only disliked Joanna before and tried her best to make Ashton and Rebecca Kelloway a couple.
She didn’t actually do anything to harm her though.
However, when Lady Octavia took people to find Aria, she was prepared to forcibly take Aria away.
This is different from the usual mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflict.
If it wasn’t for Brandon’s tily return that ti, who knows what the consequences would have been.
That’s why Aria is unwilling to easily forgive Lady Octavia, which is very normal.
"Of course I don’t want to have anything to do with her." Aria was a little annoyed when she brought up this incident. She rubbed her temples, "But grandma talked to and said that she hopes I can give Lady Octavia a chance now that she has a change of heart. Grandma told that a harmonious family is the key to success."
"As you know, I couldn’t refuse grandma. But whenever I see Lady Octavia, I rember the things she did to , and I can’t find it in myself to forgive her."
"What did Brandon say?"
"Brandon said that it’s up to ." Aria smiled when she ntioned her husband, "He said he wouldn’t persuade and would let make my own decisions. No matter what decision I make, he’ll stand by my side."
"Brandon treats you so well. I can’t believe I once thought that you two weren’t suitable for each other and advised you to break up with him. Fortunately, you didn’t listen to ; otherwise, I would have ruined such a heaven-sent marriage. I would feel guilty about it for the rest of my life."
Seeing how happy Aria was, Joanna was delighted for her.
"I also thought we were not suitable." Aria squinted her eyes and sighed softly, "But ever since we got together, he has treated really well, even to the point of being subservient and responsive to my every need."
"He treats so well that... I’m afraid I’m going to be spoiled by him."
"Joanna, do you know? Before I t him, I didn’t even dare to think that I’d ever et soone like him. He unconditionally accepts , indulges , and pampers . As long as I speak, no matter what it is, he will do it for ."
"Even my own parents couldn’t do the sa."
