Chapter 1003 - The Robot (4)
“Why are you here?” Wang Mandy asked in shock upon seeing Aunty Wang. Her voice was too loud, and she woke Tiny Rice Ball from his dream.
The child was awakened by Wang Mandy’s hoarse voice. Scared, he began to cry.
Aunty Wang quickly picked up Tiny Rice Ball and said to Wang Mandy, “I’m always here, Young Miss. I was in the bathroom washing the young master’s clothes.”
Every newly brought infant clothing would be carefully washed by Aunty Wang before it was given to Tiny Rice Ball to wear. She would only dress the baby in it when she was sure that it was clean. Before, Aunty Wang had been in the bathroom washing the clothes.
Wang Mandy looked warily at Aunty Wang. Her expression made Aunty Wang feel fearful. She hadn’t done anything wrong, so why was the young miss glaring at her like this?
“I was on the phone just then. Did you hear anything?” Wang Mandy asked in a low voice.
Aunty Wang shook her head. “I only heard the sound of the young master’s toy, so I came out to check on him. Then, I heard the sound of you talking in the playroom, but I didn’t hear what you were saying. I was always watching the young master and didn’t pay any attention to your conversation.”
Aunty Wang was speaking the truth. She wasn’t in the habit of eavesdropping on the family’s phone calls. Therefore, when she heard Wang Mandy on the phone, she found some things to busy herself with. She had been busy placing the newly washed clothes in the sun to dry and did not pay any attention to what Wang Mandy was saying.
However, Aunty Wang was concealing something. In reality, she had overheard the young miss mention something about revenge. However, she hadn’t been paying much attention.
However, seeing the young miss’s anxious look, it seemed as though the contents of the phone call should not have been overheard.
Thinking this, Aunty Wang once again emphasized, “Really, Young Miss. I didn’t hear anything. I was drying the clothes the entire time.”
Wang Mandy stared at Aunty Wang for a while. She didn’t look like she was lying. Then, she thought back to the conversation she just had with Wang Manpeng.
She hadn’t said anything that would draw someone’s suspicions, besides the word revenge.
Wang Mandy thought about this, and her stern expression relaxed. She looked at Aunty Wang’s who seemed to feel wronged. In order not to attract any unwanted problems, Wang Mandy controlled her temper. She laughed and said, “Aunty Wang, don’t be offended. I have an obsessive disorder and am easily anxious. Forgive me.”
Aunty Wang felt a little unsure of Wang Mandy’s sudden change in attitude, and she frantically nodded. “It’s fine, Young Miss. I understand that you’re not in a good mood. I’m really fine.”
Aunty Wang nodded. She had to show she was fine. She was an aunty who was here to take care of the child. If she wanted to continue staying here, then she must curry favor with the “child’s mother!”
Wang Mandy relaxed, and she walked in front of Aunty Wang and patted her shoulder. “Aunty Wang, you work hard. Tiny Rice Ball cannot be without you. As a new mom, I don’t know anything. When I wasn’t here, you took really good care of Tiny Rice Ball. We’re lucky to have you. I need to properly thank you.”
For some reason, no matter how much Aunty Wang looked at the young miss, she felt frightened.
Hearing these words, Aunty Wang repeatedly nodded. “This is what I’m here to do, what I should do….”
Wang Mandy smiled, satisfied and then she left the nursery. She had not even glanced at Tiny Rice Ball the entire time she had been in there.
