Deadly Doting Marriage - Chapter 20

Chapter 20

John’s expression was cold, and he swept his gaze at Waverly, warning, “Stop provoking her!”

Rachel hurriedly chimed in, “That’s right, Waverly. You must listen to John!”

“Humph!” Waverly was annoyed. “Why does John always care for Kathleen? I’m his relative!”

“That’s enough. Stop making a scene!” Rachel rubbed Waverly’s head. After she was done comforting her, Rachel said to John, “John, your uncle and I are going to Movania for a conference. We might be away for about two weeks, so we will have to trouble you with Waverly!”

John answered calmly, “Okay.”

“Really? That’s amazing!” When Waverly heard that, she jumped in joy.

She adored John the most, and the adoration was more than for her parents.

After all, Waverly could not help herself. John was really handsome and wealthy!

However, the only downside was such an outstanding man like John had a b*tch, Kathleen, by his side.

Ever since they were children, Waverly disliked Kathleen as she was prettier and more intelligent than her.

Most importantly, John preferred Kathleen over her.

Waverly peeped at her parents, and she rolled her eyes.

Humph! Her parents’ absence was just incredible. She could finally find an opportunity to teach Kathleen a lesson. She must find a way to chase her away!

The following morning.

Kathleen woke up early and went to wash up. Then, she headed to her university, as always.

Nancy saw her from afar and happily rushed over. “Finally! Kathy, you’re back. Do you know how worried I was when you were injured! How are you? Are you okay?” Nancy looked at her up and down. “Look, there’s still a faint bruise on the corner of your mouth…”

“Humph! I really don’t know who she provoked. She caused a mess and even made John worried! She deserved it!” Waverly walked over from a distance away.

Waverly was also a student at Hillford University, and they were the same age, but they were majoring in different courses.

Seeing that Waverly was approaching them, Nancy uttered in disdain, “Waverly, what does it have to do with you? Who’s talking to you? Get lost. We don’t want to see you!”

Waverly cast a mocking glance at Nancy. “Tsk tsk tsk. Nancy, I think you’re just a b*tch. A b*tch that follows Kathleen everywhere! Why? Did you think that you can gain favor with John if you get on Kathleen’s good side? It seems that the two of you are really crazy over money! People like you won’t fool John…”

“You’re really ridiculous. Who’s trying to gain favor with John?” Nancy retorted.

Soon, they saw Jonah Smith approaching them.

Jonah was tall, muscular, and good-looking. He was the most handsome guy in school, and many girls were his fans.

He walked over with a smile, looking at the three, and asked, “Who’s crazy over money?”

Realizing that Jonah was there, Waverly immediately pretended to be a sensible girl. “Jonah, you’re here. I’m talking about Kathleen and Nancy… ”

Jonah turned to Kathleen, and his dark eyes were sparkling.

He was indeed Hillford University’s most handsome guy, and every girl at school liked him. However, this girl never looked at him once, and she was always so cold to everyone else.

Jonah could not help but be captivated by her unique traits. He walked toward Kathleen, gently offered, “Kathleen, do you lack money? I have some, here, take it!”

After saying that, he really took out a card from his pocket and passed it to Kathleen.

Waverly was stupefied. Jonah actually gave Kathleen a card? Kathleen was too good at seducing others!

Then, Waverly moved forward and snatched the card, telling Jonah, “Jonah, don’t give it to her. She does not lack money!”

Besides, John was taking care of this fool, and what did she need money for?

Kathleen did not even look at Jonah or Waverly, and she immediately turned around and left.

Nancy also hurriedly chased after her. “Kathleen, wait for me! I’ll walk with you!”

The two girls walked side by side, leaving Waverly and Jonah.

Jonah watched Kathleen’s back, and he seemed to be deep in thoughts…

When the classes ended, Kathleen went to the restroom.

Just as she walked out, someone poured cold water over her.

The sudden splash of water, which was as cold as ice, drenched Kathleen from head to toe.

“What are you all doing?” Jonah, who just came out, saw the scene, and his face instantly darkened.

The several ladies saw Jonah and were startled. They tossed away the basins in their hands and ran away in panic.

“Kathleen, are you okay?” Jonah sized Kathleen up and quickly removed his shirt and draped it over Kathleen.

Kathleen wiped her face with her sleeve. Nonetheless, her sleeve was soaked too, and her face was still wet.

Then, she went to the faucet and washed her face, which made her feel better.

Despite being in university, most girls had already started putting on makeup.

Each of them was layered with thick makeup, wearing clothes that seemed more mature than most adults.

Instead, only Kathleen was wearing a simple tee with no makeup on. Moreover, she was a natural beauty.

Jonah approached her and asked considerately, “Let’s go. You should quickly change into dry clothes. Otherwise, you’ll definitely catch a cold in this weather!”

Kathleen nodded, and with Jonah’s support, they walked out of the university’s entrance.

John’s car was parked at the entrance of Hillford University. He got off work earlier to pick up Kathleen and Waverly.

Of course, Waverly had been waiting in the car with him. When she saw Kathleen’s drenched and sorry appearance, she could not help but smirk.

However, the next second, she saw Jonah’s shirt draped on Kathleen, and her face immediately changed.

Was this woman actually fooling around with Jonah?

Waverly stomped her feet in anger. “John, look. Kathleen is messing around with a boy from school…”
