NovelEnglishChapter 389
Erica paced nervously in the backyard garden after talking to Evadne on the phone.
It was the first time she had done something like this in her life, and it was understandable that her
mental composure wasn’t strong.
With a sense of anxiety, Erica returned to the mansion.
Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat when she saw Mr. Thaddeus, who had been absent for a long time,
walking into the mansion!
“Mr. Thaddeus!”
Erica rushed over to Thaddeus, her face pale and sweat dripping from her forehead,
Despite she had been serving as a maid in the mansion for many years, she had never dared to speak
to him directly. Somehow, she mustered up the courage to stop him. Thaddeus raised an eyebrow,
“What’s the matter?”
“I… I… You…” Erica cursed herself for being spineless, her tongue tying up at crucial moment.
“Take your time.” Thaddeus gazed at her calmly.
In the past, he would never have had such patience, but now, influenced by Evadne, he was more
affable and humane.
Erica bit her lip, her face turning red with the effort of holding back.

Would he believe it?
Erica took a step forward, whispering as there was no one nearby, “Mr. Thaddeus, tonight I will secretly
meet with Ms. Evadne at a certain place. Can you come?” Thaddeus‘ eyes narrowed, and he leaned
forward abruptly, “What did you say? You’re going to?”
“Erica! What are you doing?!”
Suddenly, a sharp voice came from above.
Erica looked up abruptly to see Glynnis‘ fierce face, and she froze in fear.
Thaddeus noticed her unusual behavior, thinking that what she wanted to say but hesitated might be
related to Glynnis.
“Hurry up here! I just got some new clothes, come and tidy them up for me, quickly!” Glynnis urged
impatiently.
“Yes, Ms. Glynnis!”
Erica tightly pursed her lips, glanced at Thaddeus in a dilemma.
Thaddeus stepped closer to her and in a voice only they could hear, he said, “Later, I’ll have Mr.
Gordon contact you. Tell him the address where you’ll meet Ms. Evadne tonight.”
Erica rushed to Glynnis‘ room, finding a stack of clothes awaiting her organization.
Glynnis lounged with her legs crossed on the sofa, sipping red wine as she watched Erica’s bustling
figure.
“What did you say to my brother just now?”
Erica felt as if a knife had been pressed against her back but forced herself to remain composed, “I just
ran into Mr. Thaddeus and greeted him. He asked me to fetch him a bottle of red wine from the cellar
and bring it to his study later.“–
“Hmph, my brother has plenty of servants around him, not to mention Gordon. Why would he need
you?”
Glynnis‘ gaze darkened as she sneered, “Could it be that you have some inappropriate thoughts, trying
to climb the social ladder? Do you not have a mirror to reflect on your own conduct?”
Erica felt a sudden relief upon hearing Glynnis‘ harsh words.
“Erica, you should know the kind of relationship I have with Thaddeus. If you got to him and say things
that shouldn’t be said, be careful. I might make things difficult for you.”
“Yes, I understand.” Erica responded meekly.
Glynnis leaned back on the sofa lazily, “I’m going out tonight, and I might not come back.”
Erica felt a hidden joy!

She had been worrying about finding an excuse to go out and meet Ms. Evadne tonight, and now she
finally had the opportunity.

“Thank you, Ms. Glynnis
Erica tidied up the glothes and left the room.
As soon as she left, Glynnis‘ expression changed instantly, and she called Elspeth.
“Mom, I deliberately gave Erica the night off, just to play a cat–and–mouse game! I saw her talking to
Thaddeus secretly just now. Who knows, maybe she’s a spy Thaddeus planted by my side!”
“A cat–and–mouse game?” Elspeth’s tone was displeased.
“Yes! Erica is just a maid; she wouldn’t dare to do such a thing unless she had someone backing her
up. This way, I can lure out the person manipulating her from behind and find out who dares to go
against us!” Glynnis revealed a cunning smile, proud of her plan.
“You fool! How did I ended up with such a stupid child!”

Elspeth scolded her mercilessly, “You’re letting the tiger back into the mountain, did you realize that?! I
told you to keep an eye on her, and you actually let her interact with others?! The person opposing us
doesn’t need much thought. Besides Thaddeus, it’s Evadne! What if she secretly contacts Evadne
tonight? If she leaks that information, it will ruin everything!”
Glynnis shook violently, slapped her forehead suddenly, feeling like she was a fool for not thinking
things through.
“Tonight, Erica will definitely make a move.”
