My Mute Wife

Edith told her what happened from beginning to end in a pure-hearted manner, saying that Lexie was a peacockish sister and cheated on her..

Lexie was standing right next to her, watched Edith’s acting with cold eyes, her face expressionless, and didn’t defend herself under Diana’s disgusted and despised gaze.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Because she knew it wasn’t necessary, Diana didn’t like her, much less believe her.

Sure enough, Diana looked at her with a look of filth, “No wonder you refused to leave, so you came for the Howard family’s wealth, what a greedy bitch!”

Seeing this, Edith hooked her lips in triumph, then moved closer to Lexie and said in a voice that only two people could hear, “Dad let you make sure to cooperate with me.”

Lexie suddenly turned her head and her pupils shrank, [What do you want?]

Edith naturally read her sign language, smiled and whispered, “You don t need to care, just cooperate with me, otherwise … I will go and tell Dad.”

Seeing the exchange between the two, Diana looked at Edith and asked suspiciously, “What did she say to you?”

Edith sighed in mock sadness, “My sister hates me now, I told sister I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.”

Diana snorted coldly, “What a virtue! I’ve seen a lot of bitch who was greedy for wealth, but it’s the first time I’ve seen a mute who is also so obnoxious.”

Having heard more than enough hurtful words, Lexie had long been numb inside.

In the time that followed, Diana’s attitude towards Edith eased, and the two soon had a laughing conversation.

After all, compared to the mute Lexie, Edith was more to her liking, and was very good at talking sweet words, and in a few words she had made Diana happy.

On the contrary, it was Lexie who acted like an irrelevant outsider.

Around late afternoon, Alan returned.

He was in a black suit without a half-assed crease, her clean, short hair back over his head, revealing his forehead, a full-on business tycoon’s pose.

Although the scar on his face was frightening, the way he pursed his thin lips was manly and aristocratic.

Edith froze as soon as she saw him.

There were rumors outside that Alan was ugly to the extreme, and Edith believed them, but she didn’t expect this man to be so handsome even with scars on his face!

Edith’s heart was filled with regret and reluctance, had she known he was so manly, she definitely wouldn’t have let Lexie marry him!

But then she thought about what her father had asked her to do …

The mind was all torn, but in the end it was her own thoughts that prevailed.

Whether it was Alan or Kevin, she wanted both of these men for sure!

By making these two men fall deeply in love with her, her father’s purpose would be accomplished

“Alan, you’re back.”

Edith changed into a lady’s coy pretence to approach him, unable to say how pleased she was at the thought that this brilliant man had begged to marry her in the first place.

However, to the shock of no one, Alan looked at her with a cold gaze.

Not only was Edith puzzled, but even Diana couldn’t believe it.

When it was Alan who took the initiative to ask for Edith’s hand in marriage, he must have liked her as well, how did this reaction come about?

Was it because of Lexie’s proxy marriage?

Was that why he was angry with her and deliberately left her alone?

Edith figured this out and immediately released, “Alan, I have something very important to tell you.”

Alan was clear that she was here for Peter’s matter, and paused in his steps, “Follow me.”

Edith’s face lit up with joy and she was following up with him.

Lexie stood right next to the couch, her eyes on him from start to finish.

Alan went straight up to the second floor without even giving her a single look.

Diana swept her eyes at Lexie, whose presence had been extremely low, and sneered, “See, the one Alan likes is Edith, where’s your place here? Leave quickly if you’re smart, don’t wait to end up in a disastrous situation and make a fool of yourself.”

Lexie had heard too much of Diana’s taunts and was numb.

There was just something in her mind that she couldn’t figure out.

Before the marriage, the Howard family always thought it was Edith who was going to marry over, but why was there no wedding with guests?

It was Alan who took the initiative to ask for Edith’s hand in marriage.

But strange as it was, it didn’t have much to do with her, and she didn’t really want to think about it.

Back in her room, she suddenly noticed several missed calls on her phone.

On closer inspection, it was actually a call from the People’s Hospital.

Lexie dialed it.

“Miss Mitchell, is it? The patient is in a bit of a situation, please come to the hospital as soon as possible.”

Something happened to Grandma?
