Chapter 771

Saffron's resentment towards Douglas was growing wildly every day.

Especially Juniper, who could ignite her and make her explode in an instant.

She was currently pregnant with a daughter, and a realistic man like Douglas would never marry her.

Thinking about this made Saffron want to chop both of them to pieces.

She couldn't just let it go, and she definitely wouldn't let it go.

Saffron viciously clutched her abdomen.

Juniper asked, "Dad, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll cook for you."

"It's been a long time since I had your pasta," Aaron said.

The relationship between the father and daughter had been tense, and he thought he would never have the chance to eat Juniper's homemade pasta again.

"Okay, I'll go make pasta right now."

"Trying to curry favor, all fake," Elara sneered. "Honey, are you really fooled by a few bowls of soup and a plate of pasta? She only came back because you're making a will. Think about it, is she sincere or not?"

Aaron looked at her coldly, "I know very well who is sincere and who is not."

"You mean I'm not sincere? I've been devoted and served you honestly for so many years. How can you..."

"Enough. It's the same thing over and over again, I'm tired of hearing it," Aaron raised his hand to stop her.

Elara was fuming inside.

She used to complain to him when she had a bad relationship with Juniper, but now that they had reconciled, she was the bad guy?

She was indeed after his money, but she had also given her youth and so much more over the years. Elara felt it was unfair; her efforts had been in vain.

Juniper took out some pasta from the fridge, and Douglas walked in with a greasy face, leering at her.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming back? I could have picked you up."

Juniper ignored him.

"You're getting more and more arrogant now, not even responding when I talk to you. I heard you have a new boyfriend, no wonder you look prettier. Is he treating you well?"

Juniper filled a pot with water, "If you say one more word, I'll boil this water and throw it in your face."

"So ruthless, huh? Would you really do that? We were together for quite a long time..."

"That was the most foolish time of my life," Juniper said with disgust.

"That hurts my feelings. I was genuinely good to you. How could you forget so quickly? No wonder they say women are heartless, especially pretty ones. So cruel..." Douglas shook his head.

"What kind of guy is your boyfriend? He must be treating you well, keeping you so well-maintained and beautiful. How does he do it, huh?" Douglas reached out to touch her hair.

"Don't touch me!" Juniper immediately slapped his hand away with a firm attitude.

This actually hurt Douglas, and her attitude also wounded him a bit.

"Is that necessary?"

"Of course, when a disgusting bug touches me, I have to squash it!" Juniper said mercilessly.

"Did you just call me a bug?"

"You're worse than a bug, a hundred times more disgusting and annoying. Douglas, can you stop appearing in front of me? Every time I see you, I want to slap you to death."

"Such harsh words. Do you think you're some pure, good woman? Haven't you been changing men every few days? How many men have you been with since we broke up? You acted all innocent when we were together, not letting me touch you. I bet you had already slept with other men and were afraid I'd find out, so you didn't let me touch you."

Being insulted by a disgusting scumbag like this, Juniper really wanted to smash a pot on his head.

But there were too many scumbags like him who didn't even realize they were scumbags. Was she blind or just out of her mind to have liked such a disgusting guy?

Just thinking about holding hands and hugging him in the past made Juniper feel a strong urge to vomit.

"What, you're not saying anything? Admitting it, huh? Damn, I was so naive back then, completely fooled by you. You were really good at pretending to be innocent."

"Get out before I make a move!"

"Make a move? How? In bed?" Douglas raised an eyebrow.

Juniper couldn't take it anymore and threw a cup of water at him, "Get out!"

"You really dared to throw water at me?"

"Of course, I did. Do I need to pick a time?" Juniper said angrily, "If you dare to slander and insult me again, it won't be this simple."

"Slander? I must have hit the mark, that's why you're so angry."

Douglas wiped the water off his face, "You probably use the same lies to fool your current boyfriend. When he finds out, he'll be just as disgusted with you as I am."

"Get out!"

"I'm not leaving. You have quite a temper, huh? Are you this fiery in bed too? I'd love to try it. Must be exciting. How about we..."

Juniper raised her hand to slap him, but this time Douglas was prepared and grabbed her wrist, "Trying to hit me? I'm your future brother-in-law, we'll soon be family. Can't you be a bit more polite?"

With the relationship of being her sister's husband, Douglas felt even more thrilled, every cell in his body was tingling with excitement.

"Who is family with you? I don't have a sister, and I definitely don't have a scumbag brother-in-law like you. Besides, it's still uncertain if you'll marry Saffron. Can you guarantee she's carrying a boy?"

Saffron, who had come to catch them in the act, heard this and angrily rushed in, "Juniper, what do you mean? You just can't stand to see me happy, so you have to curse me?"

"I'm just telling the truth. You must have secretly checked, right? What's the result? Dare to say?"

"You..." Saffron's face turned very pale.

Douglas also wanted to know the result, so he asked Saffron, "Did you check?"

"Not yet, but the fortune teller said it's definitely a boy, no need to check."

Saffron tried to sound confident, "That fortune teller is very skilled. If he says it's a boy, it's a boy. What are you doubting?"

"Where did this fortune teller come from? I don't know if he's telling the truth," Douglas said, "Is it that hard to do a check?"

"But the doctor said it's best to do fewer checks, it's not good for the baby."

"I've never heard of that," Douglas frowned, feeling she was lying to him.

Juniper didn't believe Saffron's nonsense either. Her eyes were blinking constantly, clearly lying.

"You must have already checked and found out it's a girl, so you don't dare to say, right?" Juniper sneered, directly exposing her.

"I didn't." Saffron denied it quickly. But the faster and louder she denied, the more it seemed like she was guilty.

"Honey, believe me. I didn't secretly check, it's really a boy. I even dreamed that our son told me he was healthy," Saffron tried hard to lie, "Don't you believe me?"
