HEIRESS REBORN: MARRYING HER EX-FIANCÉ

At the end of the funeral, Ayana immediately wished to leave the private cemetery at once! She could not deal with the presence of her uncle and his family any longer.

Their fake smiles and affection just nauseated her to the point that she wanted to throw up her breakfast.

''Are you sure you don't want to stay longer, young miss?'' Her Nanny expressed her concerns when she announced that she suddenly wanted to leave the funeral as soon as possible.

''Yes Nanny.'' She replied and shifted her gaze to Jason who was now awake and looking around curiously with his wide innocent eyes from her Nanny's arms. ''Jason must also be feeling a little bored.'' Her eyes softened with tenderness.

Now that she had taken a step back and decided to use this second chance to love and know her little brother, Ayana noticed some peculiar characters of her little Jason

One of them was that Jason seemed calm...way too calm for a baby.

He wasn't fussy despite being in their Nanny's arms for more than an hour and was also a quiet one.

Perhaps due to her sudden change of attitude, her Nanny had started talking more about Jason and his habits. According to her words, her little brother was one of the calmest babies that she had met in her life.

''There is one thing that worries me, young miss. The young master hasn't showed any sign of walking yet. I am happy that he's quite interactive and can make sounds, but isn't it strange that he hasn't said a word yet?'' Her Nanny had once expressed her main concern about her little brother.

''~Aya!'' Perhaps her stare was quite obvious that her little brother decided to spoil her with a daily dosage of cute smiles.

''You want to go home too, right Jason?'' She smiled with a small chuckle, her eyes flashing with affection.

Her little brother was the exact of definition of cuteness overload.

With his caramel-colored hair and hazel eyes just like hers, and smooth white skin with chubby cheeks fitting for his age, her little brother was the cutest baby in the entire world!

His eyes had become one of her favorite things as they were round, wide and so innocent that she wished for them to remain that way forever.

Though that was obviously impossible in a family like theirs.

''Let's go Nanny.'' Ayana reluctantly turned away from the sight of her cute little brother and started walking towards the black gates of the private cemetery.

''Young miss, the Eldest Master….''

''He will understand the reason why we left early.'' Ayana continued moving forward without any concerns. She understood what her Nanny was trying to tell her.

Her relatives might be displeased with her early absence.

However….she could not bear to waste another in the presence of her uncle and his family. Unless she might lose control of herself and her burning rage.

'Since he wants to put on a show for others, then I should give more chances.' She sneered inwardly, walking past the gazes of the guests stinging the side of her face.

She also had no time to entertain these scheming people.

It didn't take long before Ayana reached the parked black SUV and entered with her Nanny and her little brother.

*Knock*

*Knock*

A moment passed before a knocking sound came from the tinted glass window on her side. She pressed the control button on the armrest, and the window partially slid down, revealing a part of her bodyguard's face.

''It is done, young miss.''

''Good.'' The words certainly pleased her, and the window slid up with the control button. Ayana could feel the curious gaze of her Nanny, but she had no intention of saying a word, and relaxed her head on the headrest.

If her past life was exactly as this life, then no one should have noticed the actions of one of her bodyguard.

'I hope he accepts the deal.' She closed her eyes as the black SUV drove out of the Kingston's private cemetery.

''Jay, this is an apple. ''

In a bedroom painted blue and scattered with toys and some teddy bears on the floor, Ayana could be seen cradling the little Jason in her arms, and two siblings remained seated on a fluffy mat. The one-year-old curiously looked at the coloring book in front of his gaze, and his sister's hand pointing at the roughly colored printed sketch of an apple.

''A for Apple, Jason. '' Ayana taught in a very serious manner. ''Repeat after me''

''~Aya!'' He playfully slammed the book with his chubby arm and continued slamming the page for a number of times.

Ayana chuckled at his actions and tilted her head to give him a kiss on the cheek from behind. ''You're almost there, Jason.''

He giggled in response as she took her head back, probably liking the kiss on his cheek.

''Almost there.'' She whispered, her hazel eyes narrowing with a knowing glint. Her little brother's slow development was not definitely natural as her Nanny had assumed.

It was man-made, and she had an idea of what could have happened in the past and her past life.

*Knock*

*Knock*

''Young miss, the Eldest Master has arrived with the Eldest Madam and the first young miss.'' A familiar face entered her sight, and she recognized the person as the new housekeeper.

Someone that she could trust for the position. Especially with the spies around in the Mansion.

''He is?'' Those words amused Ayana. She did not look up and flipped to another page for the curious eyes of her little brother.

'He's quite impatient.' She mused to herself.

Her Uncle couldn't even wait for an entire week after the funeral before deciding to show up on her doorstep, even with his family.

'It must be about the custody.' Ayana could easily guess the reason for his visit. Her uncle wanted to have full custody over herself and her little brother.

''Are they inside?'' She inquired softly.

''Yes, young miss. Grandmother is aware of their arrival and decided to entertain them.'' The new housekeeper replied respectfully.

''Nanny is?'' Ayana finally looked up with surprise on her face. The word 'grandmother' did not sound strange to her ears. After all, her Nanny and the new housekeeper were related to each other.

''Yes young miss, and the Eldest Master came in with another guest.''

''Another guest?" Her eyes flashed with confusion. Who could her uncle and his family have invited with them? His Attorney? Or had something else happened? Was this another plan of her uncle's?

'Have I missed something?' Her eyes narrowed into contemplation. Her heart rate also sped up slightly in panic at the thought of missing something important that must have happened in her past life.

Ayana was confident in having an upper hand over her enemies with the use of her past life's memories. Through the manipulation of her relatives and that hateful man, she had involved herself in quite a number of activities.

So, she was confident in her knowledge that was way ahead of them.

Yet…it seemed she had carelessly missed something. Something that could have been important to her!

''Yes, young miss,'' The new housekeeper responded calmly in contrast to her sudden agitation. ''Madam May also arrived with the Eldest Master.''
