Chapter 163 The Thought of Escape (2)
It was Reyna’s voice.
Zoe trembled her fingers for a moment, pulled back the curtains, turned on the lights, and then went to open the door.
“Mom…”
“Zoe, why didn’t you just persuade your dad and your brother to come along?”
“Ah… But even after advising them, they would still argue.”
Reyna’s brows furrowed slightly as she looked at Zoe, but the words she had just thought of to lecture her immediately swallowed back.
With a thin body to begin with, coupled with not eating properly, the complexion was also extremely unattractive.
Reyna couldn’t say it either.
“Never mind, never mind. We can start preparing dinner now. You can come down and eat with us too.”
Zoe opened her mouth, wanting to say that she didn’t want to eat, but Reyna’s expression made her close her mouth and obediently follow her downstairs.
In the living room downstairs, Tristan sat on the sofa with a gloomy face, crossing his legs.
The low air pressure made Zoe’s footsteps come to a halt, preventing her from moving forward toward the kitchen.
The servants watched their expressions and dared not make a sound when serving the dishes. They carefully finished serving the food while holding their breaths and then hurriedly left the kitchen.
“Phew! Why were we arguing every day?”
“Yeah, the relationship has deteriorated so much that we are all exhausted from working.”
“Ah, if only Miss had come back, the people of the Horton family wouldn’t have been so excessive whenever they mentioned Miss.”
The servant who said this had been with the Horton family for over ten years, just like Jayvion, who had been working for the Horton family for a long time.
The young maid beside her instantly widened her eyes.
Approaching quietly, asking in a low voice.
“Can you talk about it?”
“During work, let’s not talk about it. We can discuss it once work is finished.”
The voices of the two people almost squeezed out from between their teeth, as small as they could be. They had agreed to gossip together at night, and they looked around like thieves.
Stepping with small quick steps, he immediately left.
Behind them, in the corner around the corner, a figure gradually appeared, and it was Bruce, who was working in his own room.
The rumors among the servants in the house had been spreading more
and more.
Some elderly people, intentionally or unintentionally, would mention Valerie, who had long left the Horton family.
And the atmosphere of the Horton family now, indeed leaves much to be desired.
“Ah…”
He sighed heavily and didn’t feel like going to the restaurant for dinner tonight.
I turned my head and saw Zoe lowering her head, walking toward the kitchen.
After a moment of hesitation, the footsteps turned back toward the room, but eventually redirected toward the dining room.
There was only Zoe, a girl, left in the family. The greatest effort she could make was to prevent herself from being scolded by Reese.
“I was so tired.”
Muttering to himself, Tristan arrived at the restaurant and sure enough, neither Tristan nor Reese were there, only Reyna and Zoe.
“Mom, Zoe.”
“Bruce, you’re here.”
Reyna forced a smile, trying to make herself look less exhausted.
Bruce also heard the argument, but he didn’t come down to intervene. He didn’t want to get involved in the situation.
Zoe looked at her mother and brother like this.
My heart felt extremely heavy.
In my mind. I once again recalled the some when my wester Valerse eff with wat hetatace
Her heart started to beat rapidly
Clutching the fork tightly in her hand, she held her breath, feeling both excited and nervous about having such a thought
She also wanted, wanted to leave the home just like her sester did
