The Second Act Revenge (Oneida and Jackson) -
The Second Act 84
Chapter 84
Oneida and Jackson returned to Garrison Mansion together.
Fiona's eyes turned red with jealousy when she saw them returning hand in hand.
She stood in the corner, sorting out her things while peeking at them.
She felt more uncomfortable the longer she watched them.
It was she who was the closest person to Jackson in the past, but everything changed once Oneida married him. Jackson had also changed.
In the past, Jackson was like an unattainable person. He always seemed to be too far away from anyone's reach. Now, however, he allowed Oneida to be so close to him.
Fiona bit her lips, and her mind was full of envy and jealousy. She felt extremely bitter about the current turn of events.
She made up her mind and decided that she needed to take action.
At night, someone knocked on Oneida's door.
Oneida was lying on the bed, tossing and turning while unable to fall asleep.
Hearing the knock, she got out of bed in a daze and walked over to open the door.
It was Fiona who stood at her door.
"You..." Oneida frowned slightly. Her demeanor made it seem that she was not pleased to see Fiona.
Fiona raised her chin slightly. She did not look like a humble maid, but an arrogant young lady from a rich family instead.
"Oneida, "are you very proud of yourself now?"
Oneida's eyes narrowed at this. Fiona did not call her respectfully by her title, Mrs. Bane. Instead, the maid called her directly by name.
"Why do you say so?" Oneida only felt that Fiona was a bit touched in the head. The maid had targeted her multiple times. and still did not reflect on herself after being taught a lesson.
"Do you really think that you can win Mr. Bane's heart?" Fiona smiled with a strange expression on her face.
After a slight pause, Fiona's eyes shone with cold light as she continued, "Mr. Bane is a responsible man. He is kind to you now, but that's just him fulfilling his responsibility as your husband. However, he will never give his heart to you... because he already has someone he likes for a long time..."
Oneida had an indifferent expression on her face at first, but she could not help but frown when she heard the latter part of
Fiona's statement.
"He already has someone he likes for a long time..." Oneida repeated inwardly.
Fiona knew that her words were working the moment she saw Oneida's expression change slightly. She smiled slightly and then sighed helplessly in a pretentious manner. "I just want to remind you not to think that Mr. Bane likes you just because he's kind to you... You will end up hurting if you fall too deep!"
Oneida raised her gaze and asked coldly, "Who is the person he likes?"

Chapter 83
Oneida pursed her lips, feeling a little guilty.
She had completely forgotten that Jackson was still waiting for her while she was focused on talking to Christopher just now.
She moved to the side and got closer to Jackson before whispering, "Jackson..."
Jackson pursed his thin lips and said nothing.
Oneida sighed almost inaudibly, then stretched out her arms and hugged Jackson from the side.
"You..." The man finally turned to look at her and said in a surprised manner.
Oneida placed her chin on Jackson's shoulder and said in a sad and aggrieved voice, "Jackson, let me hold you for a while... Just for a while..."
She had just suffered a huge blow, and her mood was also a bit unstable.
However, it seemed that her mind would calm down as long as she was by Jackson's side and smelled the man's pleasant
scent.
The displeasure that had risen in Jackson's mind seemed to have dissipated instantly when Oneida hugged him.
He seemed to be easily coaxed when it came to Oneida.
He could not continue to be angry when she called him by his name and hugged him.
On the contrary, he even felt a little distressed when he saw Oneida's depressed expression.
"Did that man bully you?" Jackson lowered his gaze, and a trace of coldness flashed in the depth of his eyes. Oneida shook her head.
Christopher had no chance to do anything to her in this life.
She was just inexplicably sad.
She wondered if she could still replace her savior, the youngster from 12 years ago.
"That swan brooch... Whom does it belong to?" she mused.

Chapter 84
Fiona shook her head and said, "How do I know this..."
Oneida subconsciously clenched her fingers and said indifferently, "Are you lying to me?"
Fiona sneered. "Why should I lie to you? If you don't believe me, then come with me!"
After saying that, Fiona turned around and walked toward the balcony on the side. Oneida was silent for a moment before finally following her.
The scenery in the manor could be seen clearly from the huge and wide balcony.
Fiona pointed her finger at the vast flower field in the manor.
"Do you see that flower field?"
80%
Oneida followed in the direction where Fiona's finger was pointing and found that there was indeed a seemingly boundless flower field there.
The flower that was planted in the flower field was not various types of roses that were favored by the gentry and nobles.
Instead, it was baby's breath.
The flower field was full of baby's breath.
There was baby's breath in a variety of colors. White, purple, and blue...
The bright white moonlight shone on the small and delicate flowers, giving them a vivid and ethereal beauty.
Various colors clustered together, making them look bright and warm, while also exuding a dazzling and magnificent charm.
"It's baby's breath..." Oneida remarked inwardly.
Oneida clenched her fingers tightly, and her mind seemed to be blank for a moment.
"This flower field was planted by Mr. Bane for his beloved girl." Fiona's voice rang in her ears, and it sounded faint in the cold wind. "I think this baby's breath flower should have an extraordinary meaning for Mr. Bane and that girl."
