The Billionaire CEO Wants to Marry Me Every Day-Chapter 269: Vicious Old Woman

"You—" Audrey Stanton was so angered by Stella Monroe’s attitude that her vision started to blur.

But after all these years of chanting, she quickly calmed down. She gave Stella Monroe a deep look and said, "Wear whatever you want, just don’t regret it later."

Stella Monroe sensed something amiss, but she couldn’t pinpoint what it was.

Unable to figure it out, she simply dismissed the thought, curled her lip, and got into the car. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

However, in the next moment, Audrey Stanton also got into the car.

Stella Monroe asked in confusion, "Big sister, are you also coming back with me?"

Audrey Stanton ignored her, closed her eyes, and began reciting scriptures.

Stella Monroe muttered to herself, wondering if Audrey Stanton planned to speak ill of her in front of Henry Stanton.

That malicious old woman!

Inwardly fuming, Stella Monroe decided that once she got home, she’d act first by complaining about Audrey Stanton to Henry Stanton.

After all, she had indeed been doing the hard work lately, and Audrey Stanton couldn’t possibly deny it!

She was, after all, Henry Stanton’s wife, and she didn’t believe that he wouldn’t care for her at all.

The car slowly started, soon getting onto the main road, heading towards Stanton Manor.

While Stella Monroe was on her way back to Stanton Manor, Summer Monroe had already arrived there with Damian Knight.

An hour later, the place had transformed into a sea of white.

The red lanterns at the entrance of the manor were replaced with white ones, the red couplets on the door were switched for white, and the inside was hung with countless bits of white paper.

At the villa entrance, several white screens were particularly conspicuous.

The servants were all dressed in white mourning clothes. From a distance, the entire Stanton Manor seemed shrouded in a white mist.

Summer Monroe stood at the entrance for several seconds, then turned to Damian Knight, her tone complex: "I still find it a bit unreal."

Clarissa Stanton’s death was so sudden; she was completely unprepared.

But this also revealed the ruthlessness of the "rat" hiding in the shadows.

To warn her, they simply went ahead and killed Clarissa Stanton, which was truly terrifying.

For the first time, Summer Monroe felt a chill run down her spine.

Damian Knight said nothing, simply holding her hand.

Summer Monroe instinctively wanted to pull away, but then heard Damian Knight murmur, "If we’re to act, we should do it convincingly; we’ll soon be married."

Only then did Summer Monroe remember the purpose of their return, and she squeezed Damian Knight’s hand back as they walked into the villa holding hands.

Henry Stanton was in the living room, directing the servants in the arrangements.

"Take out the red flowers from the vase..."

Once Henry Stanton finished speaking, he turned and saw Summer Monroe with Damian Knight.

The sight of Damian Knight initially startled him, fearing that he’d set the compensation too high and caused dissatisfaction.

But in the next instant, seeing Damian Knight holding Summer Monroe’s hand, his shock turned to delight. He greeted them with a broad smile, "Young Master Knight, what brings you here... Did Sadie send you to pay respects?"

Damian Knight nodded, "I heard about it. Sadie said Miss Clarissa fell gravely ill, so I came to see. Please take care of yourself and don’t be too upset."

Henry Stanton immediately put on a sorrowful expression, feigned wiping away tears, and nodded, "Thankfully... thankfully, I’ve found Sadie. Otherwise, I’d truly be just a lonely old man now."

Summer Monroe no longer wanted to see Henry Stanton’s performance and said directly, "Dad, actually, Damian Knight has another reason for coming today."

Henry Stanton grew tense again, swallowed nervously, and asked, "Does Young Master Knight have other business?"
