Chapter 98 La''s Arrogance


    Chapter 98 La''s Arrogance


    On her way, she had considered all the possibilities that could happen. But all she had to do was


    abandon her pride and cooperate with La.


    Actually, it wasn''t difficult at all.


    What did self-esteem matterpared to death?


    That was her first time entering the interior of Willowbrook. The decoration style was to her liking - blue


    arches, horseshoe-shaped windows, gray mud walls, and white curtains that appeared even more


    mysterious and romantic under the sea breeze.


    Unfortunately, the owner of the house was La.


    Under the guidance of the servant, Avery arrived in the living room - spacious and bright, with a 270-


    degree panoramic window that offered a clear view of the sea from every angle.


    She hadn''t seen La yet when suddenly something hung on her leg. It was none other than Ethan,


    whom she hadn''t seen for some time.


    "Mom." His pronunciation had improved since thest time, and his chubby cheeks were very cute.


    The child''s eyes sparkled like stars in the sky. Seeing him again, Avery felt a sense of familiarity in her


    heart.


    Ethan opened his arms towards Avery while drool trickled down from his plump lips. "Mom, hug..."


    Avery wanted to rub his head, but the nanny hurriedly came and took Ethan away.


    "Oh my, my little master, go upstairs quickly. Your mom has something important to do."


    Ethan was very dissatisfied with being taken away forcibly, so he started crying and reached out his


    arms towards Avery. "Mom, mom."


    Avery''s heart clenched as well. She had unexpectedly developed suchplex emotions towards


    La''s son.


    La arrived btedly from the second floor. She heard Ethan''s voice from afar. "Good boy, you finally


    know how to call Mommy. Mommy wille and y with youter."


    Ethan ignored her and continued looking in Avery''s direction.


    La sat down on the sofa. A servant approached and asked pleasingly, "Madam, what would you like


    to drink?"


    Resting her head on her handzily, La looked at Avery and said, "I heard your skill at cooking


    cakes is good."


    "If it''s a requirement of getting Adams Mansion, I can bake for you." Avery got straight to the point.


    With a smile, La replied, "Avery, as someone from a business family, haven''t you been taught that


    you have to give something in order to get something? You''re standing here today. I assume you came


    to discuss Adams Mansion with me. What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?"


    "What do you want to eat?"

    "The servant will inform you."


    Following the servant''s instructions, Avery baked a te of honey cake.


    "Too sweet."


    Avery baked again for the second time.


    "Too hard."


    She could always find reasons and excuses for the third and fourth tries. On the fifth try, she poured the


    egg mixture directly onto Avery''s hair.


    Suppressing her anger, Avery let the mixture of batter and egg drip down her hair.


    Avery lowered her head, her long eyshes hiding her emotions. Her voice was very low, making it


    difficult to discern her feelings.


    "Miss White, I am not a cook, so naturally, I cannot bake something that suits your taste."


    However, La continued to boast shamelessly, her face full of arrogance.


    "Avery, I hold grudges. Didn''t I tell you to bring Isabe? This is the consequence of not listening to


    me."


    Avery was well aware that La''s current audacity and arrogance were all supported by Jacob, while


    she had nothing and even had to rely on others. Hence, La felt she could mistreat her without


    consequences.


    As La happily enjoyed Avery''s misery, Avery, who had kept her head down all along, suddenly


    moved.


    Avery was very swift. She picked up the remaining half-bowl of egg mixture and pped it onto La''s


    face.
