Chapter 708: I Have an Unsettled Score with the Bailey Family
Upon hearing this, Kelly and the woman beside her changed their expressions.
Then, the woman clung to Mr. Bailey, tears coming immediately as she cried, "Master, I don't know what I did wrong. I got up early today just to prepare your medicinal meal, I didn't even see Ella, and as soon as I finished, I ended up being scolded like this."
"I know she doesn't like me, but I am still her mother, and in front of so many servants, where can I put my face!"
As soon as Mr. Bailey saw her crying, his heart was instantly gripped with pain, and without another word, he struck out at Ella Bailey.
This time, Ella Bailey didn't stand there to be hit; she dodged and, with a cold laugh, stared at Mr. Bailey, "You think I was born to be bullied?"
Mr. Bailey, furious, picked up the fruit plate from the table and threw it at her, "You must be tired of living!"
Ella Bailey kicked the fruit plate flying, "Yes, I am tired of living!"
She glared at Mr. Bailey and roared, "I've been tired of living for a long time! For this woman, you abandoned my mother, drove her out of the house, and caused her to become a vegetable, while you live happily with this despicable woman. Why should I do your dirty work just to satisfy your desires? I'm done!"
With that, Ella Bailey turned and left!
Mr. Bailey shouted angrily from behind, "Come back here!"
Ella Bailey ignored him and walked straight out the door.
After leaving the villa, the anger on Ella Bailey's face disappeared.
Woods approached her respectfully, "Miss."
As they walked on, Ella asked, "Is the house ready?"
Woods nodded, "It's ready, Elsa and her family can move in tomorrow."
Ella Bailey nodded, "We didn't use our own people, right?"
At this, Woods hesitated, "Miss, I don't understand. If you want to help Elsa, why do you trouble her on one hand and secretly assist her on the other, making her hate you? Is it worth it?"
Ella Bailey glanced sideways at him, "What do you know?"
She looked back at the Bailey family, "Luke Gill, that dog, and Kelly, that wench, are watching me. If I openly help Elsa, it would surely raise their suspicions. That foolish woman, risking her entire family for something so unreliable, is really stupid."
Woods pursed his lips and remained silent.
He knew that although Ella Bailey verbally cursed, she actually envied Elsa.
Because Elsa could fight against the unfairness of fate, even when life knocked her down, she could still stand up.
Ella Bailey admired Elsa's character, even though she knew Austin's legs had been deliberately broken by someone Luke Gill arranged, and the Dyer family was desperate, having to sell their house to pay for Austin's treatment, and no one wanted to buy their house, it was Ella Bailey who had someone secretly buy the house.
Whenever the Dyer family faced difficulties, she always found the right moment to help without letting anyone know it was her doing.
Just like the last time, someone was watching Ella Bailey, and she had to force Elsa to hand over something, then deliberately broke a glass, making Elsa owe five hundred thousand dollars.
Later, when she learned Elsa planned to sell her blood to repay the debt, she arranged for someone to buy it at an extremely high price.
Elsa actually only donated 1000cc of blood but received five hundred thousand dollars.
She appeared weak, partly due to the blood loss, but more so because of her generally poor nutrition.
Woods paused before looking at Ella Bailey again, "So by making such a scene today, haven't you just exposed your own intentions?"
Ella Bailey responded coldly, "That is exactly the outcome I wanted. You will have someone keep an eye on them and report back to me immediately if anything happens." Woods nodded, "Yes."
Ella Bailey glanced at him, then suddenly approached him until she was only a step away, "That old man, my father, hasn't noticed anything off about you?"
Woods stepped back and lowered his head, "Miss, I have long been on your side. In front of the master, I naturally have to act flawlessly."
Ella Bailey gave a cold smile, "It better be that way, for those who betray me do not meet a good end!"Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Woods replied, "I understand, Miss."
Elsewhere.
After Tina left the Dyer family, Jared, having just finished his work, called to ask where she was and then drove to pick her up.
When Jared arrived, Tina was on the phone.
He did not disturb her, merely opening the car door for her.
After getting into the car, Tina only said to the person on the phone, "Thoroughly investigate the Dyer family, and do not overlook even the dogs they once had."
After hanging up the phone, Jared then looked at her, "What about the Dyer family?"
He hadn't heard of any Dyer family offending her recently.
Tina put away her phone, "I ran into a lifesaver of mine, a former member of the Dyer family from the capital who's run into some trouble."
"The Dyer family from the capital?"
Jared thought for a moment, "Is it the one that went bankrupt over a decade ago?"
"Do you know?"
Tina asked.
"Yes, a little," Jared said, "That Dyer family was also a hidden family. They were supposedly ousted by another hidden family after offending them. Over a decade ago, there was a problem with the Dyer family's products that led to deaths, their financial chain broke, and Mr. Dyer and his wife both committed suicide by jumping from a building."
Jared turned to look at Tina, "That's about all I know. We didn't have much to do with them, and I'm not too clear on the other details. Was Mr. Dyer your benefactor?"
"It was his daughter."
Tina recounted the events of that year to Jared and then added, "No wonder they attracted the attention of a hidden family. It seems the grudges were formed long ago." Jared narrowed his eyes, "Another hidden family? Which one this time?"
"The Bailey family."
Tina asked, "How much do you know about the Bailey family?"
Hearing this, Jared's expression suddenly darkened, "I know quite a lot about the Bailey family."
Tina raised an eyebrow, having never seen her uncle know too much about any family.
It seemed that this Bailey family was not simple.
Jared stared straight ahead, his voice cold, "I have an unresolved vengeance against the Bailey family!"
"What vengeance?"
Tina was somewhat surprised.
It was rare for her uncle to openly speak of holding a grudge against anyone.
Jared pursed his lips, seemingly lost in thought, and did not speak for a long time.
After a long while, Jared finally said slowly, "You know I have an aunt who went abroad decades ago and hasn't returned, right?"
Tina nodded, "I know."
She actually knew very little about this aunt, only having heard Logan mention her.
But in the Farrell family, this aunt seemed to be a taboo, and despite knowing Jared for so long, she had never heard him mention her.
It seemed that if it weren't for the Bailey family, Jared might not have brought her up today.
