Chapter 96

Lucija fell face-first to the ground. She stood up in pain, gritting her teeth. “Owen, why don’t you go to hell?” “If I die, who will see your beautiful face while you fall?” Owen lightly curled his lips and lazily leaned against the railing of the stairs. “Jory is going back. He asked me to look for you to accompany him back.” “Otherwise, do you think I am willing to come find you?” Lucija pursed her lips. He took a deep breath, walk passed him angrily, and left after making sure that Owen did not hear the conversation between her and Bridget. “Miss Yates.” Looking at her back, Owen said calmly, “Beau likes Eliza very much.” The woman stopped. The next second, Lucija turned around and stared at him coldly. “Why are you telling me this?”(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) “I hope you know.” Owen stretched lazily. “When Beau’s second brother brought you back to the Valentine family, he wanted you to be the adopted daughter of the Valentine family.” “No one treats you as Beau’s fiancee or a expected you to marry him. So you are a sister who has no blood relationship with Beau at most. Don’t think too much.” “He never really liked you. Even when you helped him find the Briant and Demarion, he didn’t think too highly of you.” “But if you hurt Eliza, I think he will choose the latter, between a sister he doesn’t like and his beloved wife.” “At that time, even his second brother, Elias, might not be able to protect you.”

Lucija’s face turned slightly pale. After a moment, she composed herself and smiled at Owen. “What do you mean?” “Eliza is my sister-in-law. I like her a lot. Why would I hurt her?” “Furthermore.” Lucija glanced at him indifferently. “As you said, I am just an adopted daughter of the Valentine family. How would I dare to touch Beau’s wife?” After that, she turned around and left gracefully. Owen stood still, looking coldly at the direction she left.

In the ward, Jory and Eliza were chatting happily. Seeing Lucija enter, Jory introduced her with a faint smile, “Well, it’s getting late. Have a good rest!” “By the way.” The old man chuckled. “I haven’t introduced her properly yet.” “This lady is called Lucija. She is Beau’s sister who was brought home by his second brother. She has been living in the Valentine family for ten years. She can be considered half a daughter of mine!” After that, he turned to look at Lucija. “Why don’t you call her sister-in-law?” A hint of disgust flashed across Lucija’s eyes. But that glance just lasted for a second. Then, she looked tenderly at Eliza and said, “Hello, sister-in-law.” “Braint and Demarion told me that Beau married a beautiful sister-in-law. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)I just want to know how beautiful you can be.” She pretended to take a serious look at Eliza with her narrow eyes. “I didn’t expect you to be so beautiful. You’re worthy of my third brother.” Although it was not the first time that Eliza was praised for being beautiful, for some reason, she felt that Lucija’s words were awkward. Even though Eliza felt uncomfortable, she still politely greeted her with a smile. “Hello.” “Beau often talks about you in front of me.” What Eilza said made Lucija’s eyes shine in an instant! She pursed her lips. “Did Beau mention me in front of you?” Eliza was stunned. “Yes… yes.” In fact, it wasn’t just Beau. Even the two little kids Braint and Demarion had never mentioned this adopted daughter of the Valentine family in front of Eliza. If it weren’t for Jory… she would never have known that there was such a person in the Valentine family. The reason why she lied about Beau mentioning Lucija in front of her was because she wanted to be being polite. She didn’t expect Lucija to take it seriously… Jory probably noticed Eliza’s embarrassment and frowned. “Let’s talk about it later. We are family, and we will have plenty of time in the future.” “It’s getting late. We should leave.” Lucija pursed her lips and hesitated for a while. However, she still took a deep breath and pretended to look at Eliza calmly. “I know that I am important in Beau’s heart.” “Sister-in-law, let’s talk next time!” After that, she turned around and helped Jory as they left. Eliza was leaning on the hospital bed as she watched the two of them leave. She was at a loss for what to do.

What did Beau mean… She had been with him for more than a month, and he had never formally brought her to see his family, and rarely mentioned about them in front of her. But such a thing happened today… How could he let Jory visit her? Eliza was puzzled. “You don’t have to take the Lucija seriously.”

While Eliza was in a daze, Owen brought dinner over and placed it in front of her. “Don’t listen to other people’s nonsense. Beau has never regarded her as his fiancee.” Eliza’s hand was on the lunch box and she paused slightly. “So she is Beau’s fiance.” No wonder she had a strange attitude earlier. She even emphasized that she was important to Beau. “She isn’t!” He sat down on a chair and said, “That’s what others said. They’ve never been engaged, and Beau has never treated her seriously.” Eliza lowered her head and opened the lunch box. Her voice was a little stuffy. “Is that so?” She didn’t remember much before she passed out. She only remembered that Beau said that he wouldn’t divorce her. But now, she did not understand. If he did mind her giving birth to a child, why did he refuse to divorce her? If he didn’t mind, then why… did he let her face her former fiancee when she woke up in a coma? D Was he reminding her that he had other women? O Thinking of this, Eliza clenched her spoon. After a while, she put down the lunch box. “I have no appetite.” Owen helplessly patted his forehead. “Don’t think so much, okay?” “You are the only one in Beau’s mind.”

“Don’t be affected by others.” Eliza looked at him. “Since he used to have a fiancee, why would he marry me?” Owen: “…” He seemed to have said something wrong. Just now Owen actually wanted to follow Lucija to over, but he was stopped by a nurse when he was on the way, so he was delayed. When he arrived, Lucija had already left. The complacent expression on her face made Owen’s heart skip a beat.

He was worried that Lucija spoke nonsense in front of Eliza, so he anxiously came over to comfort her.

But he didn’t expect that he would make a fool of himself… What if Beau found out that Eliza had misunderstood her because of him? He would be so sad that he would have no appetite to eat…(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) Thinking of this, Owen breathed a sigh of relief. “Eliza, you really don’t need to care about Lucija.” “I’ll tell you something secretly.” “Actually, Beau fell in love with you at first sight. From the first day both of you met, he told me that he must be with you for the rest of his life. He loved you so much that he wished he could spend his life together with you.” “He still…”

“What else did I say?” Suddenly, a deep male voice came from the direction of the door
