Chapter 5 I Am Your Newly Wedded Wife

Kayla walked up to Rebecca and disdainfully tugged at the latter’s clothes with the tips of her fingers.

“What are you wearing? Did you come from the past?”

The fabric and style looked even worse than the aprons in their home.

Rebecca pushed her glasses, her shimmering eyes giving off an intimidating aura.

When Kayla met Rebecca’s gaze, she was surprised to find herself terrified.

“W-What’s with that look? I’m telling you, I’m the second young lady in this house. You’d better watch your manners around me.”

Rebecca never wanted to humor a rude woman like Kayla. She would always have her revenge, after all.

“I’m now your sister-in-law. I am of the same standing as your mother, so you should be the one watching your manners around me.”

Kayla was stunned for a moment. She didn’t expect the ugly woman to possess such eloquence.

“Who do you think you are? If your family hadn’t arranged an engagement with ours, and if your sister wasn’t infertile, do you think you’d have gotten this chance? How dare you call yourself my sister-in-law? Are you even worthy?”

Rebecca gave a half-smile, but the gleam in her eyes was terrifying. The sun was shining brightly outside, but Kayla felt a chill run down her spine.

“Either way, you should leave. Do not disturb my husband’s rest.”

“H-Husband?” Kayla was shocked, but she quickly sneered. “What a shameless woman you are! You’re so ugly, yet you dare call Levi your husband! You’re making me throw up.”

Rebecca could see that Kayla harbored something more than familial love toward Levi. There was jealousy in Kayla’s eyes.

Something must be going on behind the scenes.

Rebecca raised her eyebrow on purpose, smiling gently as she suddenly took Levi’s arm.

“So what? According to our marriage certificate, he is my husband. Sorry, but please leave right now. Don’t disturb me and my husband from resting.”

Levi lowered his gaze slightly. Rebecca kept calling him her husband, and he felt that her melodious voice was quite pleasant to hear.

More importantly, she had a sharp tongue.

This woman was quite an interesting one. Even though her outfit was old-fashioned and she looked rather plain, her aura was different from that of a normal person.

He couldn’t place a finger on it.

When Kayla saw that, she was so furious that her shoulders trembled, and her pretty face cycled through all sorts of expressions.

“You shameless woman!”

“We’re a legally married couple. What’s wrong with that?”

“You… Just wait and see!”

Kayla stomped her feet, then turned around and slammed the door on her way out.

Rebecca let out a sigh of relief. It was tiring to deal with spoiled brats like Kayla. She was about to let go of Levi when the man suddenly wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace.

“Let go of me, Levi!”

She tried to struggle but realized the man was too strong. She couldn’t even budge. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The man’s cold breath snaked into her ear.

“Who exactly are you?”

Rebecca was stunned for a few seconds as she looked innocently at Levi.

“Am I not your newly-wedded wife?”

“You know I’m not talking about that.”

“What are you talking about, then?” She couldn’t move in his arms, so she decided to give up struggling.

“Don’t play dumb with me.” He held her chin with his fingertips as his dark eyes glinted.

There wasn’t even a hint of panic in Rebecca’s clear eyes, and she was unbelievably calm.

She let out a sigh. “You don’t have to be so nervous. I won’t do anything to you.”

Levi scoffed. She sounded as if she were all that.

“What can you do to me?”

“I can cure you. Your leg isn’t afflicted by normal paralysis.”

After her examination just now, she found that Levi’s legs were gradually stiffening. Within three months, his legs might even have to be amputated.

Levi frowned. “What do you mean?”

“Someone is trying to harm you. They sneaked something in when they treated you, but I need time to figure out what it is.”

She told him earnestly.

He wasn’t the least bit surprised that someone wanted to harm him. After all, many people within these walls wanted him dead.
