A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 91

The sound got Linda's heart pounding. She immediately opened her eyes.

The appearance of Violet Xing shocked her. After all, Violet was her mother-in-law.

Violet Xing took off her sunglasses, under which was her discontent. The two were still cuddling with each other. She raised her eyebrows and frowned.

Charles signed with resignation when he found out it was none other than his own mother who interrupted him. He couldn't do anything to her.

His sharp-tempered mother usually did everything in a brisk and hurried manner.

"Mother, what's wrong with my wife and me making out at our own house?" Charles rubbed his temples, as if he had a headache.

"It's not about making out. You can do it in your room. Why here?" Servants are all looking at you. This is highly inappropriate."

Though Violet reproached them in her usual grumpy manner, Linda felt like she had begun to accept her.

Could it be that Amy had let her down with the previous drama?

Charles remained speechless and looked at Linda before he could gave an appropriate responce. "Okay... I get it, Mother."

"Well, that's more like it." Violet was satisfied with Charles' attitude, so her eyebrows cleared. She open the latest Chanel handbag, taking out an exquisitely decorated jewery box. She looked Linda up and down and then handed her the box, saying, "It's for you. Charles' grandmother entrusted me to give it to you as your wedding gift."

Linda showed a mild smile with her rosy lips. "Thank you, Lady Xing."

"Lady? You steal my son and yet still address me as Lady?."

"..." Linda was rattled by the sudden outburst of her future mother-in-law. A trace of confusion and panic in her eyes amused Charles.

"Call me mother."

"Ah?"

"As I said before, you should call me mother after getting married."

Linda turned to look at Violet, and said, "Mother."

Violet looked her up and down. "Well, that's better. It's not so easy to be a qualified daughter-in-law of Mu clan. I'll definately hold you to high standards. Good luck."

After finishing her words, Violet, carrying her bag in hand, left straight for James Mu.

Her brisk and hurried manner intimidated Linda a little.

"What on earth was your mother saying? I'm a little confused."

Charles shook his head, "I have no idea. Anyway, now that she has accepted you, you can just ignore her sharp tongue."

"... Didn't you hear her words? She intends to give me a hard time..." Linda was a little afraid of her own future mother-in-law, For the relationship between a daughter-in-law and a mother-in-law has always been a Gordian Knot for generations.

"In my clan, when the eldest grandson got married, his grandmother would hand his wife this amber necklace. The custom lasted for generations. So it's a symbol of my mother's approval."

Linda opened the box. In it laid an antique, lanolin-like amber necklace, looking classic and luxurious.

"Come on, let me put it on for you."

Charles took the necklace from Linda's hand, turned her around, and put on the family heirloom for her.

The amber necklace lay squarely on her chest and it was a good match with her dress. It felt like the necklace was specially made for her.

Charles then went round to her front and gazed her chest for a while, saying to himself that he had a beautiful wife. After a while, he drew back his gaze due to Linda's stare.

"Fine. Father and Mother are waiting for us at the gate. Let's meet them and head to the hotel together. Paul must have picked up your mother." said Charles while taking her delicate hand.

Bun was about to finish her laps, and she hadn't broken a sweat yet. What's more, she could even peek at what happened in the guest hall from time to time.

Linda waved at her, "Come here, Bun. Take a rest and a shower. We are going."

"I can't. I can't defy Young Master's order."

"Charles Mu." called Linda in a gentle way.

"Huh?"

"Bastard!"

Charles immediately understood her intention and glanced at Bun in the garden, saying:

"Stop here. Lady Linda has spoken for you. Don't do that again, or you shall run 100 laps."

"Yes, sir." Bun said cheerfully.

In fact, Bun knew Charles didn't mean to punish her but to warm her up for she hadn't done exercise for a long time.

These 50 laps were not much of a punishment.

At the gate of Mu clan's villa, a Lincoln Limousine was waiting there.

Violet Xing and James Mu were already in it.

Linda, arm in arm with Charles, walked slowly towards the limousine for she could hardly handle her high heels.

Seeing her unsteady steps, chivalrous Charles deliberately slowed down his pace.

Then he helped her into the limousine and got into the car himself too.

Linda greeted James Mu and Violet Xing with her sweet smile: "Good evening, Lord Mu and Mother."

"You call her mother, but you call me Lord? This is discrimination." James Mu said in an unhappy tone with his beard quivering.

What's all this about?

Linda couldn't get used to what happened today.

"Father..."

James Mu then nodded and smiled: "Okay, good girl. The necklace looks nice on you. It's our family heirloom. I can't wait to have a grandchild. You two must hurry up. A baby boy is the best. But a baby girl is also fine. Back in the days...Violet got pregnant right after she wore it for a month!"

Obviously, old James had a wonderful day today. His son was going to get engaged and his daughter-in-law was excellent as well as vigorous. Nothing could be better.

"James Mu, what do you mean? Do you mean that it didn't look good on me?"

Violet Xing kicked him in the shin unhappily.

"... "What are you talking about, Violet? Are you jealous of our daughter-in-law?" James shook his head with resignation.

"Linda is not your wife. It's not your business to compliment her."

"Fine... I was wrong. Okay? It is my wife who is the prettiest."

"Hum!"

His words put her in a slightly better mood, but then she again caught the sight of those two cuddling each other with fingers crossed and went back on being angry again. "Behave yourselves! Aren't you ashamed of yourselves?"
