Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 246

“Bang!” Jason Zeller kicked the servant over in disgust. She wanted to harm his biological mother, yet she still had the cheek to pretend to be pitiful and plead for mercy? Did she really think that he was a saint? No saints could expand their family business in this society.

“Mr. Zeller, I was wrong: I was wrong.” The servant immediately got up and kowtowed. “Mr. Zeller, it’s all my fault. I beg you to let my granddaughter go. My granddaughter is still a child who doesn’t know anything… I’ll tell you… I’ll tell you everything. Yesterday, the old madam was in so much pain, so I did moxibustion for her. Then some burnt ash fell on her back, and she cried out in pain. She scolded me for not paying attention and even wanted to fire me.. “I took care of her for more than 20 years! How could she say that she wants to fire me?

“I started taking care of her when I’ ́was in my twenties. Now that I’m old, I’m not as nimble as before. If she fires me, where can I find another job?” Old Madam Zeller was shocked. “I told you to pay attention because you played with your phone while you did the moxibustion. The burn was painful. But you want my life for such a minor thing?” “But you wanted to fire me!” The servant looked up at the old lady with a resentful expression and tears started streaming down her face.

“Old Madam, I’m sorry!” she thought. The servant was a selfish person, but her granddaughter was only three years old this year. As her grandmother, she had to ensure the safety of her descendants. She only wished that her granddaughter could lead a peaceful life. She also hoped she could expose Nancy for the ingrate she was, but she didn’t dare to.

The servant was afraid the Zeller family wouldn’t believe her words. And because Narzy was a part of the Zeller family, so she thought they wouldn’t do anything to her even if Nancy was revealed to be the mastermind. As long as Nancy was given freedom, her granddaughter would be in danger. Her words carried little weight, so she didn’t dare take the gamble. The servant felt very apologetic toward the old madam.

The old madam did not see the forbearance and pain in the servant’s eyes. The old madam only saw the servant blaming her for wanting to fire her. The old madam let out a long sigh. She had misjudged her character… After spending more than 20 years together, she had already treated her as half a daughter. She had also thought about letting the Zeller family take care of her once she retired. Forget it. In life, you must learn how to part with people no matter how long you spend withthem.

Jasper Zeller was furious. “Dad, call the police!” Jimmy Zeller gritted his teeth in anger. “We can’t call the police for such a thing. If she wants to prick Mom in the head, we’ll prick her in the head as retaliation. Let’s see if she dies.” Then Nancy showed concern for the old madam. Holding her hand, she looked like an obedient child. “Grandmother, are you alright? You scared me to death. You really can’t judge a book by its cover, can you?” she sighed.

When the servant saw Nancy approaching the old madam, she was so frightened that her back straightened. Nancy glanced at the servant. Then she said to Jason with a kind expression, “Uncle, I believe that Mary Zahn was just confused for a moment. She definitely won’t do such a thing again in the future. Let’s give her a chance to atone for her sins. We’ll punish her.

Let her clean the house and wash the toilet every day. Let someone else take care of Grandmother.” Look at how kind she was. Not only could she not bear to punish the servant, but she also transferred the servant away from Grandmother’s side. She was considerate of Grandmother’s safety.

She was kind and smart. How could she not be liked? Jason sighed softly. “Nancy, you’re too kind. How can we keep such a person?” As Jason spoke, he took out his phone and called the police. Moreover, he asked a friend who had relations with the police to take this matter seriously. Nancy secretly gave the servant another threatening look that meant, “You know what to do, right?”

The servant had just witnessed Nancy’s hypocrisy. She also saw how the Zeller family viewed Nancy. She could not have felt more despair. The members of the Zeller family all felt Nancy was kind and cute. Not to mention that her granddaughter’s life was in Nancy’s hands. Even if Nancy didn’t

manipulate her, no one would believe her if she accused Nancy of being the mastermind. They would only think that she was slandering her.

She kowtowed again and pleaded, “Mr. Zeller, I deserve to die. The police will be here soon. I… I’ll confess. I’m going to the washroom first.” She kowtowed to the old madam again, then got up from the ground and went to the washroom. After locking the bathroom door, she decisively took out the knife she had prepared beforehand, gritted her teeth, and cut her wrist. She was determined to die. With a slash, blood flowed profusely.

She was in so much pain but did not dare to make a sound. She only gritted her teeth tightly. She leaned against the door, tears streaming down her face. Her mind was filled with all kinds of scenes. The old madam was good-tempered. In the past few years, she had been in a lot of pain but rarely lost her temper at her. Once she felt more comfortable, the old madam would smile and tell her, “I feel better today. We have to live well. All we hope for at this age is for our children and grandchildren to live well and stay safe…”

Then the servant thought of her granddaughter again. When her granddaughter was born, she looked wrinkly, and everyone said she was ugly, but she insisted that her granddaughter would become prettier once she grew up. As expected, after two to three months, she became more and more beautiful. Now that she was three years old, she knew everything and could talk. She was sweet and cute. Every time she came back to visit, the little munchkin would run over and hug her leg and call her “Grandmother,” saying she missed her.

At that moment, her heart melted. She only hoped that she could live a few more years, earn more fnoney, and relieve some of the burdens of the young. Her daughter-in-law was already pregnant with her second child. Her stomach was getting bigger by the day. She was looking forward to her grandson or granddaughter. But now she was leaving. For good. She knew that Nancy would not stop until she died. If Nancyn did not stop, her children and grandchildren would not be safe.

More and more blood flowed out. She felt a sharp pain in her wrist, and her head began to spin. Her body also became colder and colder until she was trembling. Time passed bit by bit. She finally couldn’t take it anymore. Her head tilted and she fell. The moment she fell, she vaguely heard the sound of a police car. There was a firm voice in her heart that said, “Don’t save me… Don’t come so quickly…”

“Jasper, go and take a look!” Jason instructed. The servant had gone to the washroom for more than 10 minutes. Jasper immediately knocked on the bathroom door and shouted a few more times, “Mary Zahn! Mary Zahn! Mary Zahn!” There was no movement inside. Jasper came back and said, “Dad, I don’t hear anything.” Jimmy frowned and said, “Did she escape through the window?” Then the old madam, who was lying on the bed, actually heaved a sigh of relief. She did not know why she wanted her to escape either. Sigh! Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Let’s go take a look!” Jason said. Jasper immediately looked around and saw a small piece of metal that was used to break the shell of the macadamia nut. He picked it up and pried the door open with it. Then he pushed the door but found that it was blocked. Displeased, he continued to force his way in. The moment the door was opened, he saw that there was a pool of blood on the ground…
