Love at the Wrong Table by Emmanuel Lowe
Chapter 273

Chapter 273

Left with no choice, Roselynn opened the door in her nightgown. Outside the

door stood Jaxton, who was wearing a fierce expression.

“What? Aren’t you going to let me sleep?”

“Stop sleeping and get up to greet my parents!” Jaxton ordered in a cold

voice, but his eyes roamed across her fair skin.

The only reason why he would bear the pressure from his family to marry this

common woman was only because of her excellent figure and features.

Unfortunately, he was unable to get a taste of her to this day, and he could

barely hold it in any longer.

“Oh, okay. I’ll come down after I change…”

Roselynn turned around and headed back inside. It was a part of tradition for

a bride to greet her in–laws by serving them tea on the day of the wedding,

so she did not think much of it. However, Jaxton suddenly wrapped his arms

around her from behind and even glided his hands across her body.

“What are you doing?” Roselynn hurriedly pushed him away, starting to feel

repulsed by him.

He had been well–mannered and polite before their marriage, leading her to

believe that he was a gentleman. Moreover, she only agreed to marry him as

he came from a good family and was quite romantic as well. However, he

was now acting very differently from the past, and it was beginning to scare

her.

Roselynn only believed in marriage after seeing how happy Emmanuel was

with Mackenzie even though they got married in a rush. Compared to her

brother who had signed the marriage papers the day after his blind date, she

and Jaxton had dated for two months, so she did not think that she was in

any danger. And yet, things weren’t turning out how she expected them to,

and she was already regretting her decision to marry him..

“You’re already my wife. Can’t I hug you? Is it that embarrassing?” Jaxton

demanded, losing his temper.

If it were in the past or if they were in the Lowe Residence, Roselynn would’ve

definitely thrown a tantrum as well.

However, she held her fury in and said, “Your parents are waiting for us to

greet them, so we don’t have time to waste here. Hurry up and leave!”

At that, she pushed Jaxton out despite his unwillingness.

“Hmph, stop pretending to be innocent when you’re in your thirties! I’m going

to expose your true colors one day!” Jaxton grumbled to himself outside the

door.

By then, Roselynn’s sleepiness had completely vanished. After a look at her

dark eye circles in the mirror, she decided to take some time to doll herself

up in order to leave a good impression on her in–laws.

Half an hour later, she finally headed to the main hall with Jaxton, where

Sebastian and Jennifer had grown impatient from waiting. On the contrary,

Jessica, who had been so haughty the previous day, remained quiet with a

strange expression on her face.

“What’s wrong? Roselynn, are you not willing to prepare tea for us old folk?”

Although Jennifer was inwardly peeved, she still spoke to Roselynn with a

smile.

“Mrs. Oatley… That’s not true, I was just a little tired from yesterday…” Roselynn

replied with a weary smile.

“Still going to call me Mrs. Oatley?” Jennifer asked with a smile.

Meanwhile, Jaxton’s face darkened as the conversation continued. This

woman has no tact at all!

“Mom, Dad, please have some tea!”

Roselynn tried her best to go along with their wishes, all the while reminding

herself to get used to change, and that things would get better soon.

“Alright!”

In the end, Sebastian and Jennifer did not lose their temper and even gifted

Roselynn a large amount of money each. Roselynn responded to this with a

smile, but she wanted to get along with her in–laws in the future more than

money.

However, Jennifer immediately instructed her, “I’ll let you off since it’s the first

day, but remember to refer to me correctly in the future. Also, you have to

come out and serve tea for us every day at six–thirty in the morning!”

“What?” Roselynn’s smile immediately froze. “E–Everyday?!“
