    Chapter 109 Marilyn Miscarried


    In a few strides, she walked up to Marilyn. “Don’t you think you’re the one who’s actually lowly, Ms.


    Wood? You were the one who abandoned Mando to marry Mr. Samuel but regretted your decision


    afterward. Since Mando still has feelings for you, you want to get back together with him again.”


    Upon hearing what Genevieve said, Marilyn knew it must be Harriet who told her that.


    “Shut up!” Marilyn chided.


    Genevieve smiled. “What is it? Are you frustrated that I revealed your dirty little secret? You don’t love


    him, nor were you young and naive. All you enjoyed was the high of being sought after by powerful and


    influential men.” Genevieve bent down to check on Marilyn, who was overwrought with shame.


    “I said, shut up!” Marilyn’s face fell in an instant before raising her hand in an attempt to p


    Genevieve, who, of course, wouldn’t just stand idly and allow herself to be pped.


    As Marilyn’s arm approached, Genevieve grabbed her wrist firmly. “You’ve already gained enough out


    of this, Ms. Wood. Don’t be greedy, lest you lose more than you gain.”


    After saying that, she cast Marilyn’s arm away before turning around to head to the stairs, leaving


    Marilyn rooted to her spot with a solemn look in her eyes.


    Not only was it due to Genevieve’sments that hit the nail on the head, but thetter’s attitude also


    infuriated her.


    Marilyn was born in a prestigious family, so she grew up pampered and never had to suffer for even a


    bit, whereas Genevieve, who stood before her, had nothing. How dare she act so arrogantly in front of


    me like this? How dare she criticize me?


    A few housekeepers were busy with work in the ground-floor living room. Upon seeing Genevieve


    “What would you like to have, Mdm. Genevieve?” asked one of them.


    Seeing that it was about time for lunch, Genevieve asked them for some oatmeal that couldst her till


    lunchtime.


    While eating her oatmeal, Genevieve checked the family members’ whereabouts with the housekeeper.Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Armand had left for work in thepany early that morning, while Harriet had brought Samantha to


    Derport Church after receiving news that Raymond, the pastor, would be returning to the church that


    morning.


    Thus, all who were left in the house were Marilyn, herself, and the housekeepers.


    Right after the housekeeper answered Genevieve’s questions, another housekeeper working outside


    seemed to require some help, so the housekeeper was called outside.


    After Genevieve finished her oatmeal, she brought the bowl to the kitchen on her own, seeing that no


    other housekeeper was in the house.


    When she got back out, she went to the pantry next to the kitchen to pour herself some soda water.


    Because she had her back to the door, she didn’t notice someone entering the pantry.


    It wasn’t until she turned around with her ss in her hand that she realized Marilyn was standing


    behind her, staring at her with a gloomy look in her eye.


    Creeped out by Marilyn’s stare, Genevieve didn’t even notice Marilyn was holding a kettle. Just when


    she was about to speak, Marilyn raised her hand and tilted the kettle in her direction.


    Genevieve had a keen eye and noticed that there was still water vaporing out of the kettle, so she


    surmised that the content in it must be water that was just boiled.


    She took a few steps back instinctively while trying to move away from Marilyn, but thetter had


    closed in on her and poured the boiling water from the kettle onto her dress.


    For an instant, Genevieve felt like both her legs were submerged in hotva, the heat causing her to


    shudder.


    Genevieve couldn’t help but shriek before extending her arms to shove Marilyn with all of her might.


    She was already overwhelmed by pain as her legs were trembling from the heat of the boiling water, so


    she didn’t even touch Marilyn even though both her arms were extended. Yet, Marilyn staggered


    backward and fell onto the ground as if being pushed.


    With a loud thud, the kettle she was holding crashed onto the floor as well, the hot water in it sttering


    on her exposed arm.


    “Aaah!” Marilyn wailed in agony, her arm shaking.


    A few housekeepers hurried over. Uponying eyes on the sight in the pantry, they were so frightened


    that none of them knew what to do.


    “B-Blood…”


    One of them noted with a keen eye that blood was trickling down Marilyn’s calf. As she pointed at


    Marilyn, her face was pale, and she seemed as if she would copse by the next moment.
