Chapter 881 Acting Skills
The three ladies could not help feeling uneasy due to the sudden increase of people in the mansion.
Jennifer glanced at Lydia, who was standing nearby and waiting for her orders, then whispered to Donald, “Darling, is this appropriate? There are so many outsiders here that I'm not sure what to do.”
Donald smiled and explained, “You're my wife, so you should start getting used to being pampered and served. From now on, Lara, Lydia, and Jane will be responsible for your safety, daily affairs, and work matters, respectively. I've also configured a security system for the mansion. The employees here are all women, so you don't have to worry about privacy and other issues. Whenever you head out, Lara will assign male bodyguards for you to keep you safe.”
If Jennifer were at Quadfield, the safety precautions taken would be even more extensive.
Since they were in Pollerton, Donald kept things simple and only prioritized keeping Jennifer safe.
Even so, his arrangements had stunned Hannah and Geraldine. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Although they were both from prominent families, they had never seen anything like that.
“Darling, I get why you are doing this, but I'll still have a hard time getting used to this. Besides, you must have spent a fortune employing these people, right?” Jennifer asked.
“Don't worry about money because I have plenty of it. All you need to do is relax and enjoy,” the man uttered with a straight face.
Jennifer held her tongue when she saw how persistent Donald was. Well, I guess I better get used to this quickly.
On the other hand, Geraldine grew jealous when she saw how much Donald cared about Jennifer.
When Jennifer and Hannah left for the kitchen to get food, Geraldine took the opportunity to approach Donald and whispered, “Donald, have you forgotten about the deal we made with each other?”
“What deal?” Donald was puzzled because he could not recall making a deal with Geraldine.
The woman gritted her teeth and grumbled, “You promised me that you would help me reclaim my position in the Harper family and regain control over it! What's the matter now? Are you backing out on your word?”
Donald lifted his glass of water and took a sip. I'm not backing out. It's just that I don't think it's an urgent matter.
“You know Jennifer is pregnant, right? I will be busy. We should only talk about it again in the future,” he replied.
“I don't mind waiting, but I can't say the same for my eldest brother, Sheldon Harper. My mom called me last night and told me Sheldon had already made contact with the Downey family. If everything goes according to plan, they will marry me off in the next few days,” Geraldine fumed.
“You're getting married soon?” Donald clapped his hands and uttered with a straight face, “That is good news! Congratulations!”
“Are you doing this on purpose, Campbell?” Geraldine saw red and raised her fist into the air. Not only is Donald not helping me, but he's making fun of me!
Right then, Hannah and Jennifer were seen walking toward them with plates in their hands.
“Darling, the chefs you employed are incredible!” Jennifer exclaimed.
Donald was worried that Jennifer would not like the food served there. Upon hearing that, however, he felt relieved.
Seeing an opportunity, Geraldine grabbed Jennifer's arm and shook it. “Jenny, please talk some sense into Donald.”
The latter was peeling prawns when she shot Geraldine a puzzled look and asked, “What happened? Did he bully you?”
Geraldine nodded. “Back then, Donald promised to help me deal with my family, but he's now going back on his word!”
As she spoke, tears streamed down her cheeks, making her look extremely aggrieved.
