I cooked the lunch. Get up and eat some.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sabina&#8217;s voice is very gentle. In an instant, she becomes a kind mother-in-law.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not used to it, but I do feel hungry. I look at the time and find that it is twelve o&#8217;clock at noon.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;OK, I&#8217;ll be right down.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sabina goes downstairs. I get up and wash up before go downstairs.<\/p>\n<p>When I come downstairs, Frances happens to come back from outside.<\/p>\n<p>Why does he come back at noon?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Frances, welcome back. I cooked the lunch. Would you like to have lunch with us?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You cooked it?&#8221; Frances frowns, and his expression clearly shows that he is a little surprised.<\/p>\n<p>I am also very surprised.<\/p>\n<p>Sabina&#8217;s cooking is good and the dishes are very exquisite, completely different from the common dishes I cook.<\/p>\n<p>I understand very well that there is still a big gap between me and the upper class.<\/p>\n<p>I marry into a wealthy family, but I&#8217;ve never been the same kind of person as them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This matsutake is good. It&#8217;s good for your body. You&#8217;re so thin. You should eat more to tonify your body.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sabina says to me. As she says that, she puts a few pieces of matsutake into my bowl.<\/p>\n<p>Frances is frozen there, and it is obvious that he doesn&#8217;t believe what he sees.<\/p>\n<p>A few seconds later, he looks up at me, then at Sabina. He frowns and asks, &#8220;When did you get along so well?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know.<\/p>\n<p>Sabina changes so suddenly. Everyone will think it strange.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I suddenly see Jane a good daughter-in-law. Why can&#8217;t I treat her better?&#8221; Sabina rolls her eyes at Frances, successfully stopping his doubts.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;OK.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, I don&#8217;t even talk to Frances, let alone look for an opportunity to ask him.<\/p>\n<p>I really don&#8217;t understand why he called me to the office. He doesn&#8217;t give me any work, nor does he talk to me. Could it be that he wanted to keep an eye on me nearby?<\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t figure out, so I stop thinking.<\/p>\n<p>In the middle of work, the police station calls Frances several times.<\/p>\n<p>It looks like they talk about me. However, Frances just says a few word on the phone. I don&#8217;t know what exactly the police say at all.<\/p>\n<p>After work, Frances takes a USB drive from his computer and takes me to the police station.<\/p>\n<p>Whitney is also there. When she sees that Frances is with me, her eyes are filled with resentment.<\/p>\n<p>I think she hates me as much as she loves Frances.<\/p>\n<p>After walking in, Frances hands the USB drive to the police and smiles faintly at Whitney.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You probably don&#8217;t know that my house is equipped with surveillance cameras.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-328","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/328","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=328"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
