“By the way, do you want to ask me why 1 e baby’s breath in Garrison Mansion back then. Generally, rich families
this?” Fiona looked at Oneida’s gloomy expression and felt happy. “I was
quite puzzled when Mr. Bane was going to
won’t plant such flowers unless it is of great significance for Mr. Bane.”
She paused slightly before continuing, “However, no one around Mr. Bane seems to be fond of baby’s breath, so I casually asked him if it was for the girl he likes.”
Fiona paused once again before finally concluding, “Unexpectedly, Mr. Bane’s expression froze for a bit, and he didn’t say anything. He didn’t refute my statement, which indicated that I was right… At that moment, he seemed to have thought of something. His expression was very gentle, which was something I have never seen on his face before… I think he must have thought of the girl he likes at that time.”
Fiona spoke for a long time before turning to look at Oneida’s expression. She thought the latter would be disheartened and greatly affected by her words.
To her surprise, Oneida was looking at her with a disdainful smile on her lips.
“Are you done?” Oneida asked rhetorically.
“I… I’m done,” Fiona stammered out.
But why Oneida did not react?
“Do you think I’ll cry, wreak havoc, and cause trouble for myself if you tell me all that?” Oneida sneered and said coldly, “Does Jackson having someone he likes have anything to do with me? I’m still his wife no matter what. I’m the lady of this family, and I will live luxuriously and comfortably every day…”
She looked at Fiona condescendingly and seemingly with pity, and said, “You, on the other hand, will always be just a humble maid no matter how hard you struggle. My status will not change, and neither will yours…”
Oneida’s words accurately jabbed at Fiona’s sore spot.
Her eyes widened sharply and her face turned pale.
The emotions of resentment and anger were written on Fiona’s face.
“Damn you, Oneida!” she cursed inwardly.
Originally, Fiona thought that telling Oneida all of that would make the latter sad and miserable. Contrary to her expectations, her words did not affect Oneida at all. Rather, it was she who suffered a loss.
After saying that, Oneida left Fiona and went straight out of the balcony.
She went back to her room.
Oneida immediately lay on the bed and buried her head in the pillow.
She was far less calm than how she looked.
As a matter of fact, she was feeling a slight discomfort when she heard all of that.
In her previous life, Oneida had never heard of Jackson liking anyone.
The only person he liked was herself.
She wondered why Jackson suddenly had someone he liked in this life, and whether there were things that she had ignored.

Oneida could not figure it out.

Plagued by that thought, Oneida was no longer able to sleep. In the end, she could only keep her eyes open and stare at the ceiling.
She had received too much information that day.
The young man she had always been thinking about was somewhere out there, and Jackson suddenly had someone he liked.
She even began to wonder if something had gone wrong because of her rebirth.
Oneida closed her eyes and dazedly thought that she really would never force Jackson to be together with her if he had someone he liked.
After all, having a one–sided love toward someone was too painful.
She had experienced enough of this pain in her previous life.
The next day, Oneida went to the dining room with a pair of dark circles, yawning while eating breakfast.
A servant pushed Jackson’s wheelchair into the dining room as Oneida was about to finish her breakfast. It looked like he was also there to eat his breakfast.
Oneida was inexplicably flustered.
She quickly shoved the rest of the food into her mouth and did not even chew it as she got up. She took her schoolbag, rushed out of the dining room, and dashed out of the door.
Oneida did not know why she was running away.
She was upset and did not know how to face Jackson, so she had to avoid him first.
