Chapter 312 Her Guess Was Right!
His demeanor was incredibly indifferent, as though he were addressing a stranger.
Joanna felt a little sad.
Just then, the doorbell chimed.
lan proceeded to answer the door.
Dandy and Kyra were standing outside.
Out of politeness, lan greeted them and invited them in.
Dandy displayed minimal interest. She glanced at him before haughtily entering.
Upon reaching the foyer, they noticed Jean was present, and he swiftly altered his authoritative expression, pretending to be gentle.
âJean, youâre here as well? Kyra and I heard about your motherâs illness and lack of improvement. We were genuinely concerned, so we came to visit.â
Upon hearing this, Jean raised an assessing gaze toward her.
Dandyâs complexion had already recovered!
It appeared that the familyâs petite matriarch truly stayed true to her promise!
Contemplating her swift retributionâseeking nature, he could not help but chuckle inwardly.
Yet, he maintained an aloof expression, responding coolly, âI appreciate your concern. My Momâs in her room.â
Dandyâs expression froze, her eyes flickering to her daughter beside her.
Kyra sensed a slight unease.
From the moment they crossed the threshold until now, the man had not even spared her a glance as though she were invisible.
Despite having encountered his dismissive attitude before, she could not resist stepping forward and initiating a conversation with him.
âHowâs Aunt Wrennâs condition now? Has it improved?â
Jeanâs tone retained its aloofness, âNot very well. You can go up and see for yourself.â
Observing his continued lack of attention, Kyra could only offer a slightly embarrassed smile, âAlrightâ¦â
Following Mr. Jenkins, the two promptly ascended the staircase.
As they left, Kyra cast a discernible look of disdain at Joanna.
Kyra possessed some insight into this womanâs thoughts, yet she paid them no significant heed.
She remained convinced that anyone Jean favored would not hold any affection for Joannaâ¦
Vyra was readily engaged with her elders, and she suppressed a smile, âOf course! I intended to come a few days ago, but my work kept me tied up. Finding the opportunity was a bit challenging, but I knew I had to check up on you. Seeing you unwell. are you feeling better? You must focus on recovering.â
Wrennis demeanor softened, and Kyrils words only endeared her further, âYouâre so considerate. Donât worry, Iâll be better soonâ
Turning her attention to Dandy, Wrenn remarked, âYour complexion appears to have been restored, thatâs a Dandy sighed, âItâs touching how you still care despite your condition. Iâm fine. Focus on your health and donât trouble yourself over me.â
âAnightâ¦â
The three of them engaged in a conversation, fostering a harmonious ambiance.
Outside the door, Joanna overheard everything with a deeply displeased expression.
A smoldering anger simmered within her Wrenn, who had previously been kind to Joanna, had never crossed her mind for a potential match with Jean!
Observing this situation, it was dear that even without Neeraâs influence, she would not consider Joanna a suitable daughterâinâlaw Kyra was the favored choice!
Contemplating her position, it was evident that she would not be chosen, intensifying the anger and envy It appeared that her guess was right!
Later in the day, after spending a few days confined to bed, Wrenn felt sore all over and decided to take a stroll Comdars.
Kyra promptly offered assistance, gently saying, âAunt Wrenn, Iâll accompany you.â
Wrenn smilled contentedly remarking, âYouâre always so caring, dear.â
As they descended to stairs, upon seeing Jean focused on his tasks, Wrenn couldnât help but comment, âJean, tere ae queas of the house, it wouldnât hurt to offer them some hospitality. When will work take a back seat? Neglecting the seems impoliteâ
lean responded casually, âMs. Marks and Mrs. Marks are upstairs visiting you. How could I entertain them?â
This left Wrenn momentarily speechless.
Sébing the moment, Kyra chimed in, âItâs alright, Aunt Wrenn. Jean has always prioritized his work, which is a good thing, I understand. Let him focus on his tasks. In the meantime, Iâll accompany you to the courtyard for a stroll and some light activities. Perhaps youâll feel better.â
Wrenn cast a helpless glance at her son and then placed a reassuring hand on Kyraâs, saying, âYouâre just so wellâmannered and sensible, always enduring. Thatâs why he can be a bit thoughtlessâ¦â
