Warmth flooded Jeremy’s heart when he noticed Mrs. Rosie in the corridor.
She tended to stay up to wait for him if he didn’t tell her when he would return. In a way, she was like his mother.
But Mrs. Rosie was now an elderly woman. It was difficult for her to stay awake at midnight.
That was why Allison took over the responsibility of taking care of Jeremy during the past three years. Every night, she would only go to bed after he returned home.
“Jeremy, have you eaten? I’ve warmed up a plate of leftovers for you.”
“Jeremy, can you sleep earlier tomorrow? You tend to stay up till midnight, so you often have headaches. You need to have a good sleeping schedule, you know.”
“I know you don’t like it whenever I nag you, Jeremy. But I’m still going to say it again, even if you yell at me. I just want you to stay healthy all the time.”
“I won’t stop waiting for you just because you said so. We’re family, after all.”
Mrs. Rosie heaved a sigh. “If only Madam Allison is still here. I’d be able to rest well at night. She spent the past three years taking good care of you, Mr. Jeremy.
“I’ve witnessed how dull her skin became. She stayed up every night and waited for Really, my heart aches for her whenever I think about it.”
“Mr. Jeremy, you’re blessed to have such an amazing wife as Madam Allison.”
Jeremy looked dazed at that moment. He thought he could see Allison looking up at him with doe-
like eyes that looked innocent yet aggrieved at the same time.
She would never care about him ever again. It would be a lie if Jeremy claimed he wasn’t disappointed at all.
“Allison isn’t a blessing. She’s a curse.”
Jeremy returned to his bedroom gloomily. To his surprise, he noticed a box sitting on the coffee table.
He recognized it immediately as a package from the tailor. So he opened the box while thinking that his suit was patched.
As expected, the fancy suit was laid within the box.
It looked brand new. Jeremy couldn’t spot any stitches on the fabric. The tailor in charge of patching up his suit was very skilled, to say the least.
He couldn’t help but smile in satisfaction.
“Mr. Jeremy, you still care about Madam Allison, right?” Mrs. Rosie asked happily upon noticing Jeremy’s smile.
“I like the suit she gave me. It’s a good suit, after all. I don’t want to let it go to waste,” Jeremy replied coldly. His thumb caressed the collar, which was ironed neatly.
“Madam Allison has put in a lot of effort just to make you happy, sir.”
Mrs. Rosie let out a small sigh while looking quite distressed. “Please come with me.”
The pair soon arrived at Allison’s old room.
Mrs. Rosie opened the innermost door of the huge closet. “Take a look at the closet, Mr. Jeremy.”
There were multiple shelves installed within the floor¨Cto¨Cceiling closet. Boxes of various sizes and colors were stacked neatly on top of those shelves,
Jeremy was surprised to see such a sight. “What are those boxes?”
“These are the gifts Madam Allison had prepared for you during the past three years.”
Jeremy’s body trembled in shock.
“Each of these gifts marked a special occasion of the year. For example, your birthday, Valentine’s day of your first meeting with her.”
Mrs. Rosie continued, “She’d prepare a gift for you regardless of the occasion. Madam Allison knew that you never cared about her effort. But she insisted on preparing them no matter what. It was as though she was trying to make a tradition out of it.”
Jeremy widened his eyes even more. At that moment, he felt quite stuffy inside.
“I may not understand what sort of love Ms. Gardner has for you, but Madam Allison truly loves you from the bottom of her heart. I’m not being biased here, Mr. Jeremy. I will continue to support the young madam for as long as I live, I don’t care about Ms. Gardner at all.”
Mrs. Rosie grew frustrated when she remembered how pretentious Liana was. “Mr. Jeremy, I may be a housekeeper, but I’m not ignorant. I heard the necklace you gave Ms. Gardner showed up at the charity auction as a bidding item, Did the Gardner family sell it?
“You spent so much effort creating that necklace for Ms. Gardner, yet they sold it right away! Why didn’t she stop them?”
“Mrs. Rosie, let’s not talk about it, alright?” Jeremy tried to interrupt Mrs. Rosie.
“Did you know that Madam Allison adores that necklace? When she heard that you were planning to give that necklace to Ms. Gardner, she was so envious that she burst into tears!”
Mrs. Rosie’s voice wavered as she spoke. She sounded as though she was defending Allison.
Meanwhile, Jeremy was astonished to hear the truth. He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles whitened.
Did Allison secretly cry over a necklace that she couldn’t obtain?
Soon, Mrs. Rosie pulled out a beautiful box from the closet and opened it in front of Jeremy.
He froze up immediately when he noticed the contents. He was shocked, to say the least.
Everything in the box belonged to Jeremy. He didn’t even remember that they once existed in his life.
There was a pair of crystal cuffs he had accidentally lost. A tie he discarded long ago was also nestled in the box. He could see the lighter that he hadn’t used for a long time as well.
Jeremy never expected that Allison would keep such things in a box.
“Madam Allison, on the other hand, will never abandon anything you give to her. After all, she’s the type who keeps your discarded tie in a box properly. I believe that she will never give away your gifts as well.”
Jeremy clenched his fists tightly. He felt bitter.
At that point, he wondered if he was just coming up with an excuse to defend Liana.
“You can keep feigning ignorance all you want, Mr. Jeremy.”
Mrs. Rosie shook her head in disappointment before leaving Allison’s room with a sigh.
Jeremy remained rooted to the spot. He had mixed feelings about Allison now that he had found out the truth.
It appeared that Allison was just pretending to be compassionate and gentle during their marriage.
She had feelings just like any other human being. She was capable of getting mad and jealous as well.
But at the same time, she also cared about Jeremy.
It was just that Allison decided to conceal her emotions from everyone.
Then again, if she truly used to care about Jeremy, why couldn’t he see even a trace of warmth in her cold eyes?
Jeremy could only grit his teeth silently while feeling his jaw going tense. A mask of reluctance now took over his face.
The morning sunlight was warm and gentle. Alyssa woke up in her soft bed and did a full¨Cbody stretch under the blanket. She stretched her arms as far as she could with her bottom lifted. Her demeanor was like that of a drowsy cat.
She changed into a white athleisure outfit and went rowing at the lake in the backyard as usual.
Sean had freshened up early in the morning. He stood by the lake with a water bottle in his left hand. A clean towel hung on his right arm. He waited for Alyssa to be done.
