My Wife is a Sassy Queen

Chapter 289 A new enemy or an old one – 1



On the other hand, Liliana had left the issue of culprits trying to harm their children to Leonardo.

She had moved out of their current Villa and shifted to Jonathan’s Villa.

Every weekend, the family of four would visit Petrova Mansion. They would always stay the weekend in Petrova Mansion, making things lively for the old Grand-uncle Green. It also made it easier for Leonardo to spend time with kids.

As usual, Kyle, Mariana, Liam, Eric, James, Jacob, Henry, Jennifer, Vincent, and Alice would visit from time to time whenever they were free.

But they also had commitments and couldn’t always make it each weekend.

Liam would often be away as was required for his job. Hence, Mariana and Kyle spent almost all weekends with the Petrova-Smiths.

When the Smiths would visit their old Matriarch, Mariana would take Kyle to meet the Preston family’s old Matriarch.

In so many ways, their life formed an order and pattern that would continue for many years.

Liliana soon noticed Leonardo would often go to the basement to visit the female captive -Leena, who was responsible for poisoning her twins.

Leena, on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying the attention.

She thought Leonardo was just a green boy who had yet to grow his facial hair. It would be an easy job to seduce and take advantage of him.

One such day, after Leonardo left, Leena snorted in disdain and rolled her eyes.

Jonas couldn’t help but ask, “Aren’t you afraid they are listening and watching you?”

Leena laughed, “You fool! Look around you! There’s not a single switch or camera. It’s just plain white walls without decoration – no place to hide a camera. There’s just the overhead light. How could they possibly see anything?”

Jonas shook his head, “I think you do them much disservice. Just because they are rich doesn’t mean they are stupid or cruel. They had been holding us here for three months now. But they have never hurt us.”

“You, on the other hand, I don’t know what you have done to my father. Being poor doesn’t make you a messiah or a Robinhood. You are just a cruel person with a black heart.”

Leena rolled her eyes at his remark. In her eyes, Jonas was just a spineless faggot.

Jonas stopped speaking after that.

Leonardo watched their reaction and clicked his tongue.

He requested his uncle to help him in the study room and showed him a large wall with pictures of people, places, and events, threads of several colors crisscrossing between them, and notes everywhere.

Jake looked at the wall-turned board and felt a headache coming.

‘Where did the kid learn this?’

He wondered in his head but chose to hold his thoughts back. Then they set to work.

After three hours of intensive investigation, fact correction, and analysis – they had narrowed out the usual suspects.

Jennifer’s mother was Anne Petrova’s maid. Later in the years, she went in cahoots with Lester for some money. She had brought the abortifacient mixed supplement to Anne to abort Leonardo.

But Anne already knew of the scheme and played along while she protected the baby.

But Lester threw her under the bus and fired her. Not only did she not make any money, but she also lost her privileged job.

She had held that bitterness for years. Her husband realized her nature and distanced himself from her.

While he did not divorce or cheat on her, he maintained a subtle distance. Moreover, he took the task of Jenn’s upbringing upon himself and roped in his parents for help.

That created a barrier between Jenn and her mother. Jenn was kind and compassionate, and from an early age, she realized that her mother was a bit twisted. She did not voice her thoughts and continued to respect and love her mother, but there was a palpable boundary between them.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Later, Jennifer’s father adopted a relative’s daughter when they perished in an accident.

Since the girl was many years younger than her, Jennifer personally took care of her and mentored her.

Later, when Liliana sponsored Jennifer’s education, she moved away. She also helped her younger sister in education and guided her to earn a scholarship abroad. Hence, the two sisters became even more distant from Jennifer’s mother.

After Jennifer moved back to P City, her mother realized Anne’s daughter was friends with her daughter and had sponsored her education.

Rather than being grateful, she felt insulted. Her heart was full of hatred. So, she filled her son’s head with bitterness and vengeance.

Jennifer’s brother – Patrick Cox – was spoiled by her mother. From a young age, he became entitled and arrogant. While Jennifer and her younger sister listened to their father and grandparents, her brother was close to his mother.

Later, some people – Leena and her cooties – reached out to Patrick and paid him for exchanging a sweet prepared for Liliana’s children.

Patrick did not even question what was in the sweets. He only cared about the money.

He became worried when he realized he had unwittingly poisoned the children. Hence, he ran away and hid in his house.

After a month, when there was no movement from the Smiths, he breathed a sigh and started going out again.

Jennifer remained unaware as she was too busy to think about the changes in her brother’s behavior.

He suddenly became very friendly with her and wanted to see different lifestyles, so she had him tag along.

But then he seemed uninterested and shut himself in the house. She was too busy with Henry’s research and slept at the research center more often than at night. She simply did not have the time to bother about his activities.
