    Chapter 162 What Is Jennifer Up To?


    “Mrs. Fox must be a beautiful woman too! Look at the little girl. She looks so sweet and adorable!”


    The maids continued muttering among themselves.


    Monica spoke Brundelian extremely well. The conversation flowed well as she discussed the difference


    in culture between the two countries with everyone else. She carried herself with an air of refinement


    and was able to keep the conversation going. Everything she did gave off the allure of a confident and


    capable


    Woman.


    The butler continued to describe the castle in great detail. As Stanley admired the finery around him, he


    couldn’t resistmenting to the children, “It would’ve been great if your mommy coulde too. I


    could’ve taken a photo of the three of you here together.”


    Monica’s smile stiffened as her heart pricked with pain. Is she always on Stanley’s mind?


    Across the ocean, back at Riverdale, inside an extravagant vi at Repulse Bay.


    Stephanie had been given the medicinal ointment. She was now in charge of applying it to Jennifer’s


    face.


    Melinda was in the kitchen doing the dishes. She had just finished mopping the floor. She wasn’t


    allowed to use the robot vacuum or the dishwasher.


    s, why would themunity leader of a poor vige be daunted by a bit of housework? She had


    done everything from toiling the soil, hiking up the mountain, and even butchering animals.


    Not only did she take on all the housework, but she evenpleted everything wlessly!


    Jennifer was shocked when she inspected the fruits of Melinda’sbor.


    Once Melinda was done with the housework, she went up to the researchb. She was on a time


    crunch and had to make even fuller use of her time. I have to find the cure to Stanley’s stomach issues,


    and the scar on his back… I have to treat his condition before I get chased off?


    Melinda snapped out of her thoughts when her phone started ringing. She checked to see who was


    calling before she walked over to the window and answered the call. “Hi, Mervin.”


    “Free to join me for a cup of coffee? It’s been a while since west met, Mervin invited. He seemed to


    be in good spirits. Melinda could picture himzing on a chair with his legs crossed.


    I’m busy,” Melinda responded with a smile. “Don’t you have any scenes to film today?”


    “I’m done with the two scenes that were scheduled for today.” Mervin’s voice was crisp and attractive.


    “How’s your husband doingtely? Why didn’t he react to me entering the entertainment industry?


    Wasn’t it enough to antagonize him?” he questioned somewhat demandingly.


    “Mervin,” Melinda began in all seriousness. “Are you Stanley’s younger half-brother? Do you two share


    the -same father?”


    Mervin fell silent.


    Melinda wanted to help the two men mend their rtionship. They were both people who cared a lot


    about family andcked familial love. She could never forget thnovelxo fast updatee way Stanley


    immediately rushed to the police station to help Mervin after receiving a call while they were at the


    amusement park.


    What Is Jennifer Up To?


    She had never seen Stanley that anxious about someone else before.


    After a while, Mervin chuckled. “Did he tell you all the sordid details about the past?”


    “I figured it out myself. He didn’t say anything to me.”

    “He must’ve alluded to it. Otherwise, how could you have found out about something as outrageous as


    this?”


    Melinda didn’t want the misunderstandings between them to intensify. “Mervin, I-


    “I’ll answer your question, but you need to answer one of mine too. That’s only fair.” Mervin didn’t beat.


    around the bush. “Why did he move into Repulse Bay? Is that old hag Jennifer Fox about to die?”


    Melinda stiffened. In a way, his question provided Melinda with the answer to her question.


    Mervin loathes Jennifer….


    “Let’s meet up some other time, Mervin.” Melinda wanted to do what she could for them. I’m busy right


    now, I’ll talk to youter.” She hung up.


    Nevertheless, she couldn’t calm down yet…


    What’s up with me? Melinda thought to herself. Why did I ask that question out of the blue? I didn’t


    consider the


    consequences.


    At the same time, a ck, luxurious-looking Lincoln pulled up outside the Emerald Harbor vi. The


    vehicle looked grand and intimidating.


    The driver, dressed in his crisply pressed uniform, stepped out and opened the door.


    Gael was waiting by the car to greet the passenger. “Greetings, Miss Fox.”


    Jennifer set one foot down on the ground and ced her hand on Gael’s outstretched arm before


    getting out of the car.


    She had a smile on her face and not a care in the world as both Stanley and Melinda weren’t around.

    “Greetings, Miss Fox.”


    As soon as Jennifer entered the living room, the household staff who were lined up in two neat rows


    immediately greeted her with respect.


    Jennifer walked over to the couch. She was just as cold and haughty as ever. Though there were over


    a dozen people in the living room, it was so quiet that her footsteps rang out loud and clear.
