My Secret Billionaire Husband-Chapter 2688 - 2698: Is She Worthy of a Mansion Worth Over a Billion Dollars?

No matter what Lady Octavia might have felt about these words, after Brandon Heath had finished speaking, he simply walked away.

This time, even as Lady Octavia called to him, he did not stop in his tracks.

Lady Octavia returned home with a bellyful of anger and resentment.

Just as she was stepping into the hall, she heard Madam Heath exclaiming happily, "Stacy is the first child of Brandon’s generation, and my first great-grandchild. Her Hundred Days Banquet must be held with great fanfare. We should invite all the celebrities of Closia to celebrate this occasion."

"By the way, Aria Rowlett, who spread the branches of the Heath family, has made a great contribution. We have to reward her properly."

"I think the house in the east is very nice, how about we give it to her as a reward? What do you think?"

The house in the east?

On hearing these words, Lady Octavia, who had just entered the hall, involuntarily paused, the fury in her chest surging up to the top of her head!

That house must be worth over a billion dollars!

And they were just going to give it to Aria Rowlett?!

Coming from a noble family and with a wealthy and influential maternal family, Lady Octavia would naturally not be envious of such a thing.

When she gave birth to Brandon Heath and Ashton Heath, Madam Heath had also given her equivalent rewards.

So it’s not like Madam Heath was being biased.

But she had always looked down upon Aria Rowlett. In her eyes, the Rowlett family was an insignificant presence. She felt that Aria didn’t deserve such a reward.

A poor girl from the slums.

A little reward would surely please her.

A house worth over a billion dollars, was she worthy of it?

Another gentle voice sounded. It was her husband’s voice, "All of these are well deserved. Mother, as long as you have made up your mind, I have no objections."

"That’s settled then. Tomorrow, let’s have someone handle this matter. Also, let us invite Master Morley to come up with a good name for Stacy. Furthermore, let’s have someone else prepare a nursery room for Stacy. She can’t come back without having a place to live."

"Okay."

"Now that everything has been fulfilled, I have no regrets." Madam Heath laughed, "I am just waiting for Ashton and Joanna to give me another great-grandchild. Then, my life as an old woman will be worth it."

"Mother, you are a blessed person, and there will be a lot more blessings in the future."

"I’m not greedy, I’m satisfied with the way things are now. The extra blessings should be left to your younger generation. Now, I don’t have much to ask for. All I want is to see all of you get along well. That would make me happy."

"Everything will go as you wish," Darren Heath said in a soft voice.

"Of all the people in our family, the only one who still worries me is Octavia." Madam Heath’s tone changed as she sighed, "Her obsession with family status is too strong, and she refuses to accept Aria. If she keeps on stirring up trouble, our family will never have peace."

"Darren, you must try and talk to her, get her to change her stubborn ways. Now that both of her children are estranged from her, doesn’t she see the need to reflect on her actions? How long is she intending to let this go on?"

"Mom, I will talk to her," Darren Heath sighed as well, "This time she really was in the wrong. I admit, I have spoiled her too much."

"Finally, you’ve realized it? I told you long ago that it’s okay to spoil your wife, but there should be a limit. Octavia wasn’t always like this. It’s you who spoiled her to the point where she became so unreasonable."
