Contracted Bride Is Trapped By Her Husband - Chapter 113
Chapter 113 Luke’s Competitor
Luke sat up straight in his seat and looked straight at Mrs. Wilson. He could clearly see the subtle change in Mrs. Wilson’s face.
“Mr. Luke, I’m not questioning you. I just want to ask if Master Aren only instructed you to find Jocelyn and not Maria? Please think carefully. Did you forget someone’s name?” Looking at Mrs. Wilson’s anxious face and how badly she wanted to push Maria into Aren’s arms, Luke pouted unhappily.
As Aren’s assistant, how could he have forgotten what Aren said?
He was not a fool.
Although Luke was cursing in his heart, his expression remained unchanged.
“I’m not deaf, so I’m certain that Master Aren is only looking for Miss Jocelyn and didn’t mention Miss Maria.”
Luke raised his wrist and glanced at the time on his watch. He said, “Mrs. Wilson, my time is very precious, so can you call Miss Jocelyn out as soon as possible?”
Jocelyn, Jocelyn, are you only capable of saying Jocelyn? Mrs. Wilson gritted her teeth and roared in her heart. The smile on her face looked stiff and vicious.
Looking at Mrs. Wilson’s ferocious expression, Luke couldn’t help but think of the movie he had seen two days ago regarding zombies.
He tensed his muscles, ready to run should Mrs. Wilson pounce on him.
From today onwards, if anyone dared to say that Mrs. Wilson was a kind and amiable woman in front of him, he would definitely throw them a bottle of eye drops and make them wash their eyes.
How could such a fierce and terrifying-looking woman be related to the word amiable?
At the thought that poor Miss Jocelyn had lived in the hands of such a person for so many years, Luke felt boundless sympathy for her.
Looking at Luke sitting there, Mrs. Wilson forced herself to suppress her anger and use her brain to think of a feasible way to replace Jocelyn with Maria.
“I wonder if you can tell me why Master Aren wants to see Jocelyn?” Mrs. Wilson asked with a smile, afraid that Luke would misunderstand. She quickly waved her hand and began to defend herself.
“I don’t mean anything by that. It’s just that Jocelyn isn’t feeling very well. If Master Aren needs a female partner, he can get Maria to take her place. After all, Maria is Jocelyn’s sister. Maria will be happy to be able to help her sister.”
“Maria has always been a kind and lovely girl.” Mrs. Wilson looked at Luke sincerely, expecting to hear affirmation from his mouth.
As long as she could leave a good impression on Luke and make him mention Maria a few more times in front of Aren, Maria would have more chances.
However, Luke was completely uninterested. He only repeated, “Miss Maria is not needed this time. Master Aren only needs Miss Jocelyn.”
Afraid that Mrs. Wilson wouldn’t understand what he meant, Luke added, “Master Aren instructed me to do that.”
I just hope Mrs. Wilson doesn’t mention the name Maria again, Luke closed his eyes and prayed.
From the moment he entered this room, Mrs. Wilson had been mentioning Maria to him. This made Luke feel like his ears were about to go numb.
At the thought of the punishment he might receive if he returned late, Luke pushed the glasses on his nose bridge and sighed.
At the same time, he was a little puzzled. He did not know what he had done to offend Mrs. Wilson to make her use such a despicable method to make him stay so that he would be punished by Aren.
Was she trying to get Aren to fire him so that Maria could take his place and finally squeeze out Miss Jocelyn to become the wife of the Brown family?
Under the cover of the lens, Luke’s eyes instantly darkened.
He had already seen through Mrs. Wilson’s ploy. He would not let her succeed.
Master Aren’s assistant could only be me. Facing his competitor, Luke changed his attitude and became sharp and cold.
Such a drastic change stunned Mrs. Wilson. She did not know what she had said wrong to make Luke so solemn and cold.
