Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO’s Plaything - Chapter 745

So annoyed with Oscar, Lisa couldn’t stand it if she had to be in the same room with this man. She turned around and walked away from Oscar. Initially, the woman’s goal was to go to the front of the villa, perhaps seeing the green plants and the blue sky could calm her down.

But before she could do that, Lisa suddenly felt her wrist being pulled from behind.

She reflexively retracted her hand. “Let go!”

“Ouch..”

When she heard Brigitta’s voice, Lisa’s eyes widened. She turned quickly and guilt filled her when she saw Brigitta stroking her arm.

“Geez, I’m sorry!” Lisa said quickly. She walked over to Brigitta and checked the old woman’s hand, “I thought someone else grabbed my hand!”

Brigitta shook her head, “It’s okay. Where are you going, why are you in such a hurry?”

How could Lisa tell Brigitta that she just had a fight with Oscar over a trivial matter? Besides, she didn’t want to make the old woman worry, she also didn’t want Brigitta to scold Oscar and make the man even more annoyed with her.

“Oh, I just can’t wait to see that little garden that you have worked so hard to care for! The first time I came here, I only had a glimpse of your plants.” Lisa finally replied.

Hearing that made Brigitta’s eyes sparkle. From the first day she lived alone, the old woman fell in love with plants. All kinds of plants, starting from beautiful small flowers to the apple tree that she had been raising behind the house.

So far, no one in her family likes plants as much as she does. So, when she heard that Lisa was interested in seeing the plants she considered like her own child, Brigitta was immediately excited.

“By the way, why are you awake?” Lisa asked curiously before Brigitta could reply.

“I heard the sound of people fighting, but that’s okay. Maybe it’s the neighbor,” Brigitta replied, “It doesn’t matter. So you also like plants huh? How about staying here overnight? Later I can tell you how to grow a good plant! If you want, I can also give you some small plants, the result of my experiment.”

Hearing Brigitta’s words made Lisa think that the old lady had misunderstood again. But it was better for Brigitta not to know that she and Oscar were fighting, and to think she liked plants instead.

“Oh, don’t worry, Grandma. I have to leave early tomorrow because of work. The distance from here to the office is quite far, I might be late if I stay here.”

Seeing the look on Brigitta’s face that turned sad made Lisa feel guilty. She quickly continued her words, “But that doesn’t mean I don’t want to stay at Grandma’s house! I’ll definitely try to sleep here sometime, while taking William too.”

Not long after Lisa said that, she and Brigitta heard the sound of footsteps not far from them. The sound of the clatter of shoes was also followed by the sound of chuckles and the strong smell of perfume.

“Mama! My wife and I have come to visit you.” Peter exclaimed as he took Greta’s right hand.

When Lisa heard the sound of footsteps, she felt like her heart wanted to stop beating. Especially after she heard Peter’s distinctive voice and the man’s words that he was here with Greta.

The woman never thought that today she would meet Peter and that demonic woman!

“Gosh, why didn’t you contact me first?” Brigitta replied excitedly. She walked away from Lisa and rushed to her beloved child. Being visited by Peter and Oscar on the same day was the happiest thing in her life!

But when the old woman’s eyes caught sight of the woman standing next to Peter, her eyes turned cold. She just nodded her head a little as a greeting, and looked back at Peter with sparkling eyes.

Oscar, who was originally calming himself down near the pool, was startled when he heard his father’s voice. The man immediately returned to the house again and saw his parents standing in the living room, along with his grandmother and Lisa.

From behind, Oscar could catch nervousness and fear emanating from within Lisa’s figure. If he was in Lisa’s position, he would feel the same way. Maybe if there was only Peter here, the woman would feel okay even though she was nervous.

But apart from Peter’s presence, the woman they least wanted to meet was here too!

Even though they were fighting and Oscar was actually still annoyed with her wishes, that didn’t mean he didn’t have the will to protect Lisa from all those unpleasant feelings.

Without realizing it, he walked over to Lisa and grabbed her hand. He squeezed Lisa’s hand as if to say, ‘I’m here’.

Lisa turned and raised her eyebrows. Of course she didn’t expect Oscar to suddenly come and hold her hand. “What is it?”

“Don’t worry,” Oscar replied without looking at Lisa, “I’m here, protecting you.”

Hearing that made Lisa feel amused. Did that man think that she was a weak woman who couldn’t protect herself? Hah! What kind of joke is that?!

“Sorry, but I’m not afraid that your Mama will suddenly embarrass me here.” Lisa replied coldly.

Her answer made Oscar couldn’t help but turn his head and look at the woman in disbelief. He knew that they were fighting and the atmosphere in their midst was still tense. But he didn’t know that Lisa could still act unconcerned with the circumstances around her.

“I know.” Oscar replied while averting his gaze.

Now Peter and Greta had stepped deeper into the living room area. A look of surprise immediately filled their faces when they saw Lisa and Oscar also at Brigitta’s villa.

“Ah..” Peter whispered, “Mom, how are you now? Are you sure you want to live alone here? My house still has a lot of empty rooms that can be used.”

“I am fine. You know that my body is made of iron and steel, right?” The old woman replied which was not long after followed by a crisp laugh, “It’s better for me to stay here, than having to live in the same house as your wife—”
