Transmigrating Into A Villain novel Chapter 41

Seeing Alina come downstairs alone, Wendy looked up and down with an inquiring expression.

Being stared at by Wendy, Alina felt uneasy. So she asked with a smile, "Mom, would you like some?"

"No, thanks. I've already had my supper."

Well, then, Alina had to eat alone. After a few bites, she couldn't eat any more.

It was just because Wendy was staring at her. She really had no appetite.

Alina stopped and said helplessly, "Mom, you have been staring at me. Is there anything wrong?"

Wendy waved her hand with a smile, "No, nothing. Have you dinner."

Alina rolled her eyes and wondered. 'Why is she staring at me like that?'

"Mom..." Alina stopped eating and said, "If you keep staring at me, I can't eat anything. If you want to say something, say it now. If you don't, don't stare at me like that. We can talk after I finish eating."

"Okay, okay, I won't look at you, okay?" Then Wendy stood up and walked away.

Finally, Alina could enjoy the meal. When she was going to eat, she saw Sheffield going downstairs.

She said with a smile, "Sheffield, you're just in time. The dishes have just been served. How about eating together?"

Sheffield looked away and walked over slowly.

When the servant saw him come down, she turned to fetch the tableware for him.

Upon hearing Alina's words, Wendy, who was going to the living room, quickly turned around and looked at her daughter.

She frowned when she saw her daughter smiling and attentive to her stepson.

After staring at her for a while, Wendy left with a serious look.

"This omelette is delicious. Have a taste!" Alina picked up an omelette and put it in Sheffield's bowl.

Glancing at the omelette with disgust, Sheffield stretched out his hand to get the spareribs.

Alina got another sparerib for him with a smile, "If you like, eat more."

Sheffield paused when he was biting the sparerib. He put aside the sparerib and omelette Alina served him, and then he reached for the meatballs.

Alas... Was he disapproving of her getting dishes for him?

When she served him the omelette, he didn't eat and she thought he didn't like it. Seeing him get the sparerib, she thought he liked it and therefore she served the sparerib for him. But she found that it wasn't that he didn't like the dishes but he disliked her!

'You don't want to eat? That's all right!' If so, she could eat more!

Holding back her smile, Alina took back the omelette and sparerib from Sheffield's bowl. She was careful not to touch the rice in his bowl.

She thought that if she touched the rice in his bowl, he might throw it away.

This surprised Sheffield. He stared at the omelette and sparerib in silence.

Paying no attention to him, Alina picked up the omelette and put it into her mouth. Then she picked up the sparerib, ate it with a few bits and threw the bones on the table.

'What are you looking at? If you don't like it, I'll eat it myself.'

Looking at the bones on the table, Sheffield bit his lips and looked away.

They had dinner silently. Alina finished first. As soon as she put down her bowl, she got up and left.

On her way upstairs, she was stopped by Wendy, "Alaina, wait a moment. I have something to ask you."

"What do you want to know?" asked Alina as she turned around.

"Come here." Wendy beckoned Alina over.

Alina went over and Wendy took her to the washroom on the first floor.

"Mom, go ahead if you want to know anything. Why did you call me here?"

They stood at the entrance of the washroom. Wendy looked around to make sure there was no one else. Then she stared at Alina and asked, "Tell me honestly, why are you suddenly so nice to Sheffield? Did he do anything to you? He threatened you?"

What? "No, he didn't threaten me," replied Alina, surprised.

"Then why do you treat him so well? He ran away from home, and you rushed after him without eating anything. Didn't he just do what we wanted?" That question had bothered Wendy for a long time.

"You have changed your attitude towards him since you came back from the hospital. You always spoke for him. When I taught him a lesson, you always stood by him. When you saw him being bullied, you went to save him regardless of your own safety. Why do I think your attitude towards him has changed?"

'What should I say?' Alina thought. She had to make up a reason that could convince Wendy, otherwise Wendy would not believe her.

"Mom... You found it!"

"You did it so obviously. As long as I'm not blind, I can see it clearly. Tell me why?"

"..." Alina's mind was racing fast as a brilliant idea came up in her mind. She had come up with a good idea to make Wendy accept Sheffield!

"Mom, you always want me to marry a good man, don't you? I have thought about it. I think Sheffield is a good choice."

Wendy was shocked, "How can he be a choice? He is He is... No way! I don't agree!"

"Why not? He is Dad's only son, and he is sure to inherit from the Xu Family. We have no blood relationship, and we grew up together and knew each other. If we can be together, I don't have to worry that I will be pissed off by my mother-in-law in the future. What's more, after I marry into the Xu Family, I don't have to part with Mom. Isn't it good?"

Alina spoke smoothly, as if she had thought about it for a long time.

Hearing her daughter's analysis, Wendy thought that her daughter's words were reasonable, but... She couldn't find any reason to refute her.

"... But he might hate us for what we did to him before. What if he won't treat you well in the future?"

Alina smiled and said, "So now I'm nice to him. I've been cultivating him since he was a child, so I'll be more likely to succeed."

"I still don't think he deserves my daughter!"

Alina lowered her head and pretended to be shy. "But... But... I'm kind of fond of him. Besides, I think it's good to stay with you forever!"

"You... You like him? When did this happen? Don't you always hate him?"

"I don't know. I just like him all of a sudden." Alina felt that she had gone all out in order to make Wendy be nice to Sheffield. If this couldn't change her attitude towards him, she really didn't know what to do.

Staring at her daughter, Wendy said in all earnestness, "There is no need to worry about this. You are good to him, and I don't interfere with your decision. But you can't too much fond of him. You can only use him as a backup. There are a lot of better men outside. Don't put all the eggs into a basket, understand?"

"Yes, I understand." Alina answered very seriously. She was afraid that if she answered too perfunctorily, Wendy would go on preaching.

Wendy was relieved that her daughter had taken in her words. "Well, since you know, I won't say anything more, as long as you understand Mom's good intention."

"Thank you, Mom. I'll go upstairs."

When Alina came out, she saw Sheffield walking towards the stairs. She glanced at him and didn't think too much.

She slowly walked up after he went upstairs.

In fact, she didn't dare to like the hero, because of the fact that the hero only belonged to the heroine.

If a man took the heroine from the hero, he would go bankrupt. If a woman took the hero from the heroine, she would die.

If she would die for the sake of a quality man, she had better change one.

She was such a realistic person.
