Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO novel Chapter 812
Chapter 811
“Alright, I’m sorry then,” Roselynn responded in a somewhat apologetic tone.
Living in this house, she always felt like she was on unfamiliar ground. After
making a symbolic apology, she continued, “I won’t have dinner tonight. I
have no appetite. Enjoy your meal!”
With that, she went to her room.
Lucy and the other servants held their breaths with lowered heads for a long
time as they looked at Jennifer’s dark and furious expression.
“This is outrageous! Absolutely outrageous! We’ve really brought a tyrant into
our home! I won’t eat anymore either!”
Slam! After forcefully slamming the table once again, Jennifer prepared to
leave, but Sebastian’s cold voice stopped her. “Stop right there! You keep
complaining about other people, but have you ever respected the etiquette
and rules of the Oatley family?!”
As the head of the household, Sebastian’s authority at home was not to be
challenged by anyone.
Just now, he had given Roselynn due respect because they were currently
cooperating with Terence Group, considering the business interests. But
Jennifer’s value as a wife had long been exhausted in his eyes.
Though upset with Sebastian, Jennifer had long known that he was
unreliable. She also understood that her status in this household was inferior
to his. She had acted boldly just now because she was angry, but now that
Sebastian redirected his anger toward her, she could only snort coldly and sit
back down.
“Mom, Dad, let’s eat!” Jessica quickly tried to defuse the situation, her
behavior and demeanor completely different from usual.
The Oatleys were strict when it came to family traditions, and the elders held
absolute authority in the household. It was this dynamic that had shaped
Jessica and Jaxton’s personalities, especially in the case of Jaxton. Because
he couldn’t establish his position within the family, he often sought to feel
superior outside. However, lacking the actual capability to do so, he often
embarra*sed himself. That had been quite evident on the day his true nature
won revealed at the amusement park..
In the past, he had thought that when he married a wife and brought her
home, he would establish his authority within the family. That was why he
had chosen Roselynn, who had looks and a figure but lacked a prominent
family background. Yet, little did he know that her background was
unexpectedly strong. Now, he realized that even straightening his spine
seemed difficult.
The atmosphere remained heavy and tense during dinner, and it ended
similarly, Jaxton never said a word throughout, and he returned to his room.
filled with resentment.
As for his wife?
She refused to share a room with him, no matter what. Jaxton felt utterly
powerless as a man. He believed he had hit rock bottom.
Knock, knock.
Suddenly, a knock came at his door, and Jaxton’s eyes lit up, believing his
wife had now finally returned to sleep in his room.
With that, he got up eagerly, only to be disappointed after answering the
door.
“Oh, Mom, it’s you.” Like mother, like son. Jennifer sneered upon seeing
Jaxton’s expression. “What, did you think I was Lowe?”
“Sigh…” Jaxton let out a deep sigh and sat dejectedly on a chair.
Though there was a hierarchical distinction between mother and son in
public, when they were alone, their bond as mother and son was evident.
After all, he was Jennifer’s only son.
“Honestly, Jaxton, as a grown man, are you really going to let that woman run
wild in our home? You need to a*sert yourself as a husband!”
“Assert myself? How do you expect me to do that? The agreements have all
been signed. Do you think I can mess with her? What’s there to a*sert?”
Jaxton was both frustrated and angry.
“You idiot! Do you really think the legal effect of those agreements outweighs
the country’s marriage laws?”
Jennifer’s words piqued Jaxton’s interest. “Mom, do you have a plan?”
Chapter 812
“Hmph, I originally didn’t want to resort to these methods, but since you’re so
helpless yourself…” Jennifer said proudly, sitting next to her son.
Right outside, Lucy was cleaning the hallway, and Jennifer forgot to close the
door after entering, leaving a crack. Lucy had no intention of eavesdropping
on the conversation of the mistress, but as she walked by, she happened to
hear the voices inside.
“Later, I’ll have a servant give her a bowl of soup. After drinking it, she will go
into heat tonight! Then, you can take advantage of the situation and sleep
with her!”
“Mom, is this really a good idea? Roselynn isn’t an idiot. She’ll kill me when she
wakes up tomorrow!”
Jaxton was somewhat afraid of his wife. She might behave infatuatedly
sometimes, but she was definitely skilled when it came to arguing and
fighting. He stood no chance against her.
“Be rough with her tonight, then. Also, record a video as evidence. It’ll
eventually come in handy someday…”
Lucy was utterly astonished by what she overheard. The madam always
presented herself as a well-mannered and educated woman. Who would’ve
thought she would say such things?! Is this what they call ‘two-faced?’
“Alright, Mom! I’ll follow your plan tonight!”
Jaxton was now quite intrigued by Jennifer’s words. He had long wanted to
be intimate with Roselynn, and worst of all, they had never done anything
substantial even when they were dating, let alone now. If people found out
about this, he would be the laughingstock for the rest of his life!
“Lucy!” Jennifer called for Lucy after exiting Jaxton’s room.
“Huh?! Y-Yes, Madam. I’m here!” Lucy hurriedly approached from a distance,
pretending she hadn’t heard anything earlier.
“Roselynn hasn’t had dinner tonight. I’m worried she might be hungry. Go
make some soup for me, and I’ll bring it to her later!”
“Yes, Madam!” Lucy nodded and went to do as instructed.
Over an hour later, she nervously came to inform Jennifer. “Madam, the soup
is ready!”
“Alright, I’ll go take a look.”
Jennifer rarely entered the kitchen. If Lucy hadn’t known her plan beforehand,
she would’ve been surprised. However, she just kept her head down and
entered the kitchen alongside Jennifer.
“Go check if Roselynn is in her room. Then, come back and tell me.”
“Yes, Madam!”
After leaving Jennifer’s sight, Lucy rushed into Roselynn’s room in a fluster.
Surprised by the unexpected visitor, Roselynn went to check only to find it
was Lucy. Immediately, she asked, “What’s wrong? You don’t look so good.
Have you fallen ill?”
Roselynn didn’t come from a wealthy background. After arriving at the Oatley
residence, she didn’t even have anyone to talk to, so her relationship with
Lucy was one of the best she had.
Lucy initially feared Jennifer’s tyranny but was moved by Roselynn’s concern.
She gritted her teeth and directly told her, “Young Madam, Madam will ask
me to bring you soup later. Remember, don’t drink it, or you’ll really regret it!”
“What?” Roselynn wanted to ask for more details, but Lucy had already
hurriedly rushed back to the kitchen.
Sure enough, not long after, Jennifer, accompanied by Lucy, personally went
to Roselynn’s room.
“Can I help you with something, Jaxton’s mom?” Roselynn pretended to know
nothing, wearing a blank expression as she asked.
Jennifer’s anger surged within her again. This woman. How dare she still
address me like this when she’s already married into our family?! It’s obvious
she has no intentions of really integrating into this family!
Still, Jennifer went against her usual behavior and forced a smile. “Roselynn,
though we don’t get along as well as I would like, you’re still my
daughter-in-law regardless. Now that you’re married into our family, it’s my
responsibility as a mother-in-law to take care of you…”
Chapter 813
If Lucy hadn’t revealed the secret to her earlier, Roselynn would’ve thought
Jennifer had gone mad upon hearing those words.
The soup was absolutely not to be consumed, but outright refusal without
evidence would make it difficult to corner this mother-son pair. Ultimately, if
suspicions arose, it would be Lucy who would suffer the consequences.
Roselynn wasn’t foolish. She responded with an enigmatic smile and said,
“Jaxton’s mom, hearing you say that, I almost thought you had a wire loose in
your head! Who’d have thought you’re actually so sweet?!”
Jennifer’s lips twitched. What does she mean by “actually so sweet?” Does
this woman think of her as some scheming, wicked mother-in-law?! This is
absolutely preposterous!
Despite being livid, Jennifer forced a smile and said, “Roselynn, our conflicts
are just about family rules. As long as you behave well, I will definitely treat
you well! Come, you haven’t had your dinner tonight, so I especially had the
servant make you some soup. Drink it while it’s hot…”
With a single glance, Lucy handed the bowl of soup to Roselynn.
“Set it aside for now. I’m not hungry yet,” Roselynn replied calmly. However,
Jennifer’s mission was yet to be completed; there was no way she would
walk away just like that.
She had Lucy serve a small bowl of soup and personally handed it to
Roselynn, saying, “Soup is best enjoyed hot. Come, have some!”
With Jennifer being this accommodating, it was up to Roselynn whether she
dared to refuse.
In truth, it wasn’t that Roselynn didn’t dare; she simply couldn’t. If she knocked
the bowl over now, it would prove that Lucy had warned her in advance,
which would ultimately harm the poor servant. So, she had no choice but to
accept the bowl and take a small sip.
“Enjoy your soup. I’ll take my leave!” Jennifer smiled.
Naturally, she had been maintaining a facade in front of Roselynn all this while, and even she could hardly contain herself. Upon seeing that Roselynn
had taken a small sip of the soup, she left at once.
After the door closed, Roselynn quickly spat out the soup.
“Hmph, trying to harm me? It won’t be so easy!”
Roselynn was both shocked and furious. The idea of a mother-in-law
drugging her daughter-in-law was unheard of!
“How can I continue living in a family like this?!”
She was deeply troubled. With Claudette gone, she had no one to confide in
about her frustrations. After thinking it through, she could only call her
younger brother.
At this moment, Emmanuel had just arrived home with his wife. When he
received Roselynn’s call, he was equally shocked and concerned.
“What? You said your mother-in-law drugged you? That’s insane!”
w
“Yeah! What should I do now, Manny? Jaxton will definitely come to force
himself on me later!” Roselynn expressed her concerns.
She had pretended to be under the influence. Unless something unexpected
happened, Jaxton would likely burst into her room any time soon.
“Don’t worry, sis. I’ll head to the Oatley residence right away to save you!”
Emmanuel couldn’t ignore his only sister. He couldn’t let Jaxton Oatley do
whatever he pleased, even if he was her legal husband.
“What’s wrong? Is someone from the Oatley family causing trouble for your
sister?” Mackenzie happened to be nearby and overheard the conversation.
She, too, appeared quite angry.
As a woman, she could deeply empathize with Roselynn’s pain.
She hadn’t wanted to marry Emmanuel at first, but she was lucky that he, her
legal husband, had never taken advantage of her.
However, Roselynn wasn’t so lucky. She was now in the lion’s den, and
preserving herself was becoming exceedingly difficult.
“Yes! Mackenzie, I have to go to my sister right away. I can’t leave her alone
and defenseless!” Emmanuel said anxiously.
It was a three-hour drive from here to the Oatley residence, and he worried
he wouldn’t make it in time.
“I’ll go with you.” Mackenzie thought for a moment before making her
decision.
Although the Quillen family was currently in a predicament, the Oatleys still
feared her and hoped to gain benefits from her family. So, as long as she
interfered, the Oatleys wouldn’t dare touch Roselynn.
“Okay!”

Chapter 814
Emmanuel didn’t waste any time and immediately set out with Mackenzie.
On the other side, Roselynn’ was alone in her room, feeling anxious and
restless.
Knock knock.
Sure enough, not long after, someone came knocking on the door.
“Honey!” Jaxton called out softly, his voice sounding a bit different than usual,
obviously testing the waters.
Roselynn felt a little nervous. After all, she knew she was in unfamiliar territory
at this moment and facing not only Jaxton as the enemy.
At first, she pretended not to hear at first, but Jaxton’s voice grew louder and
louder behind the door, obviously unable to keep up the act.
“What are you doing? I’m going to sleep!” Roselynn replied, albeit reluctantly.
“So early? It’s not even 10 o’clock at night yet.” Jaxton half-believed, also
puzzled. Has she taken the philter or not? If she did, it would’ve taken effect by
now.
“Yeah, I’m getting my beauty sleep. Don’t bother me!”
Roselynn wanted to avoid any more pointless conversations and just get
through the night and deal with everything else the next day.
“Fine!” Jaxton agreed verbally, but his eyes were filled with anger.
His tolerance for this woman had reached its limit. It was one thing not to let
him touch her on regular days, but this very night, did he still not have the
right to do so? Was he not her legal husband?!
He turned to look for the spare key to forcefully open Roselynn’s room door
when he coincidentally ran into Jennifer midway.
“Mom, did you make her take the drug or not?”
“Weird, I clearly saw her drink it. Could it be that she drank too little, so the
effects aren’t strong enough?”
“Forget it. I don’t care anymore! Tonight, no matter what, I’m going to conquer
her! I want her to understand that I am her. man, not just a lapdog by her
side!” Jaxton exclaimed angrily.
His loud voice attracted Jessica, who was unaware of the situation, to come
over as well. Both Jennifer and Jessica were pleased to see Jaxton like this.
They had long felt that Jaxton needed to a*sert his authority. Otherwise, his
wife would be stepping all over him.
“Go, Jax, I’ll guard the door for you!” Jessica handed him the spare key and
encouraged him.
As for Jennifer, she directly ordered all the household staff to leave, not
allowing them to stay in the villa for the night.
Before leaving, Lucy looked back and sighed deeply. Please let Young Madam
be safe. To think a supposedly proud family like this one will do something like
this.
“Honey! Honey!”
After obtaining the spare key, Jaxton didn’t immediately open the door.
Instead, he continued to call out a couple of times from outside tentatively.
If Roselynn had really taken the philter, she wouldn’t have been able to fall
asleep at all. But unexpectedly, there was no response from inside.
Roselynn also knew that she couldn’t avoid this any longer. She quickly went
to open the window, even contemplating the idea of jumping from the
second floor.
Click!
Before she could jump out of the window, Jaxton already opened the door.
“Honey, what are you doing? Why didn’t you answer me?”
Jaxton immediately turned grim when he saw that Roselynn wasn’t sleeping
but had opened the window and was looking outside.
This woman is so cunning; she hadn’t drunk the soup after all!

Chapter 814 Barging Into Roselynn’s Room
“What… What are you trying to do? Who gave you permission to barge into
my room? Have you no shame to forcefully open a woman’s room door?! Get
out!” Roselynn rebuked coldly.
Jaxton, who was already at the end of his patience, couldn’t control his anger
any longer after hearing her words.
Chapter 815
“Ashamed? What do I have to be ashamed of? I’m your husband! Who can
say anything about me for coming into my wife’s room?!”
Roselynn couldn’t help but feel a little scared at Jaxton’s emotional outburst.
While she knew this man was a coward, provoking him in this situation might
not be the wisest choice.
“Alright, I won’t blame you anymore. Just go out. I really want to sleep!”
Roselynn softened her tone, taking a step back. Little did she expect that
Jaxton wouldn’t heed her words at all; he continued to stand in her way.
“What do you want?” Roselynn couldn’t help but get agitated.
“What do I want? I want to do what a husband and wife do, of course! Do you
know how long I’ve been holding back? I’m about to go crazy from holding it
all in! I’m going to conquer you tonight, you arrogant b*tch!” Jaxton roared
angrily, suddenly embracing Roselynn and attempting to kiss her.
“You-Get away from me!” Roselynn shoved him away.
Jaxton hadn’t expected her to be so strong. Caught off guard, he was pushed
to the ground, and he fell quite hard.
“Jax!” Both Jennifer and Jessica appeared at the door simultaneously,
stunned by what they saw.
They had known that Roselynn wasn’t weak, but they never expected that
Jaxton, a grown man, couldn’t handle her!
“I’m fine! Get out!”
Jaxton’s pride was instantly inflamed when he saw his mother and sister, and
he roared, “I can handle my woman myself! I will tame her myself!”
His bloodshot eyes scared Jennifer and Jessica a little, and they could only
nod and close the door for him.
Locked!
Now, the woman inside wouldn’t be able to escape tonight!
“Jaxton, w-what are you trying? Get out!” Roselynn instinctively stepped back
as Jaxton, with bloodshot eyes, approached her slowly. “Have you forgotten
the agreement we signed? I don’t want this, and neither of you can force
me!”
“How dare you still bring that agreement up, you f*cking b*tch! Haven’t you
humiliated me enough, huh?!”
Jaxton had already decided to throw caution to the wind. He completely
ignored whatever Roselynn was saying, and as he walked closer, he picked
up the bowl of soup. “This is the soup my mother personally made for you.
You have to drink it!”
He also knew that it would be difficult to subdue Roselynn, this fiery mare, by
force alone. He needed the aid of drugs. Once she drank the philter, she
would crawl over him like a sl*t!
“Y-You’re crazy!” Roselynn shoved him away again. If this guy thinks he can
make me drink something, he’s dreaming!
“You wretched woman! I’ll make you regret this!”
Jaxton was now utterly enraged and humiliated. He picked up the still-warm
soup and splashed it on Roselynn’s face.
While avoiding the soup, Roselynn gave Jaxton an opening to tackle her to
the ground.
Jaxton started to take off his clothes. However, he underestimated Roselynn.
Her legs were not only long but also strong. With a forceful kick, she used his
momentum to throw him off once again.
Thud.
Jaxton accidentally bumped into the table, causing the desk lamp and water
gla*s to crash to the ground with a series of clattering noises.
“Jaxton, are you okay?” The voices of the two women outside came again.
Why does it take so much effort for a grown man to deal with his wife?!
“I’m fine! Just get lost!” Jaxton’s pride had long been trampled into pieces,
and he had utterly lost his rationality. “You wretched woman! I’ll kill you!”
Jaxton grabbed a chair from under the table and wanted to smash it at
Roselynn, who panicked at once and desperately dodged.

Chapter 816
Alas, the room was only that big. Roselynn was ultimately struck by Jaxton’s
blow, falling under the table.
The pain was excruciating, and she thought she was going to fall apart.
“T’d like to see how you struggle now!”
Jaxton began taking off his pants.

Roselynn had run out of options. With one hand, she quietly reached into the
drawer, feeling around until her hand landed on a pair of scissors.
“Come on! Let me teach you how to be a woman!”
Jaxton’s entire body was rigid and tense. He lunged at her, straddling
Roselynn, thinking she was helpless and couldn’t resist. His hands began to
wander as he was driven by excitement and anger, his eyes bloodshot, wild
like a madman’s.
“Die!”
But Roselynn was not an easy target. Faced with his madness and
aggression, she didn’t hold back. She couldn’t let him have his way with her.
She thrust the scissors forward.
In the next moment, blood splattered on her face, causing her to shut her
eyes as she felt waves of nausea instinctively.
“Ah! Ah!” Jaxton let out a series of agonizing screams as he clutched his lower
abdomen, writhing on the ground in pain.
“Jax!”
The two women outside couldn’t bear it any longer and burst into the room,
