    Chapter 1992 Manage To Stay


    Yet, she never considered why Elisa, as the boss, didn’t like her.


    It was all because of her eagerness for quick sess andck of foresight, only caring about showing


    off herself whilepletely disregarding thepany’s interests.


    Julia, on the other hand, clearly knew everything, yet she didn’t expose it.


    She chuckled. “Thepany doesn’t wee you, but what makes you think you’d be wee


    here?”


    Kaylee’s expression changed for a moment.


    Yet, she quickly regained herposure.

    After taking a deep breath to calm her emotions, Kaylee said with a smile, “I know that Madam Smith is


    religious, and my family is also the same, so we should have somemon topics. More importantly,


    Gareth and Be are not often at home, so I can keep youpany and entertain you. Moreover…”


    Kaylee seemed a bit shy, lowering her head.


    “Besides, my injury still needs more time to heal.”


    So that’s the reason.


    If Kaylee hadn’t stated her purpose, Julia would have thought everything she said earlier was just


    rubbish.


    When someone is kind to you without any apparent reason, it’s highly likely that you are their aim.


    But Kaylee provided a purpose that didn’t sound farfetched and could stand its ground. That


    considerably eased Julia’s guard.


    I guess Gareth simply couldn’t ignore this woman. After all, she had indirectly saved Elisa’s life once.


    Whatever troubles that may arise in the future, they’d be not only incessant but also appalling. It might


    even catch the other party off guard.


    It’s better to keep her under my watchful eye so she can’t stir up much trouble that way.


    At this point, Julia had no idea how brutal the consequences of her decision would be.


    As a result, she gently nodded, deciding to let Kaylee stay.


    And so, thetter’s goal was achieved, and she wasn’t far from her ultimate goal.


    In the evening, Elísa and Gareth did not return. Only Be came back alone.


    Originally smiling, she walked while looking at the things in her bag. “Grandma, on the way back, I


    noticed that the orange trees were bearing fruits. These flowers smell so good. I heard they also have a


    calming effect, so I specifically picked some to bring back. If you put them by your bed, they might help


    you sleep…”


    Be’s words abruptly came to a halt, and her smile froze awkwardly.


    That was because she saw Kaylee.


    Thetter was dressed in a in white sundress, her hair intricately braided. Her appearance was


    simple

    yet elegant, reminiscent of a divine maiden, untouched and pure, seemingly oblivious to the ways of


    the


    world.


    She stood atop the steps, leisurely gazing at Be. From her elevated perspective, her gaze seemed to


    carry a hint of disdain.


    “Just hand over the stuff to me.” Her demeanor and tone would make one think that she was the


    matriarch of the household if they didn’t know better.


    Be was somewhat bewildered, unsure of how Kaylee could speak with such confidence.


    When she saw Kaylee at the dinner table, she was still somewhat dissatisfied.


    “So, Ms. Knapp, haven’t you recovered yet?”


    Kaylee paused just as she was picking up some vegetables, appearing somewhat awkward.


    She then shook her head slightly, shing a weak smile. “It’s probably my chronic illness that had


    developed way before in the mountains acting up again. The new injuries, coupled with the old ones,


    have taken a toll on my internal organs, so…”


    Be nodded slightly. Her next question was straightforward. “So when are you leaving?”


    Kaylee felt a bit embarra*sed. She nced at Julia, but thetter seemed to have no intention of


    standing up for herself.


    All she could do was swallow the bitterness in her mouth and force a smile onto her face.


    “I… I’ll stay and keep Madam Smithpany.”
