Chapter 75
Alyssa remained unfazed by Sophia’s hypocritical behavior. She had divulged that
information to tell Mandy that Alyssa was not only used but also a gold digger from a rural
village.
Rosaline and Liana were secretly delighted.
The Taylors and the Becketts were at odds. Jonah was Winston’s eldest son and held a
prestigious
status. There was no woman out of his reach.
How could he possibly want a woman the Becketts had abandoned? It was funny to even
think
about it.
Jasper frowned in displeasure. “That’s personal. You have no right to discuss it.”
“Jasper, it may be personal, but it concerns the Becketts and the Taylors. I’m just trying to
prevent
any potential shock when people find out that your ex–wife is here. I’m doing this for
everyone’s

“Does it concern both families? Didn’t Ms. White divorce Mr. Beckett? Divorce means no
ties
anymore. So why do you think that Ms. White is affecting your family?” Mandy asked with
a
sneer. “Did she sign a contract when she became a part of your family? Will she still be a
part of your family even after death?
“Ms. White found happiness with Jonah. There’s nothing shameful about it. Just because
she
divorced doesn’t mean my family won’t accept her. Come on, it’s the 21st century. Mrs.
Beckett,
you should be more open–minded. Don’t get all riled up for nothing.”
Landon almost cheered as he found Mandy’s words so satisfying to hear. Betty and the
Gardners
were shocked and speechless. They stood there in embarrassment.
Why did Mandy seem like a lioness protecting her cub?
“Mrs. Taylor, you also hail from a noble family, so you must understand what I mean!”
Sophia
pleaded, but she received no response.
Flushing red in embarrassment and anxiety, she continued, “Right after Ms. White left
Jasper, she
immediately got together with Mr. Taylor. If words of it get out, people might think they
had an
improper relationship while she was still married. It’s so embarrassing! Shouldn’t you think
on
behalf of your son? After all, you’re the lady of the Taylor family.”
“Enough!” Mandy lifted a hand. It was all it took to make Sophia stop.
“This is the private matter of our children. While I may be older than them, I’m not Jonah’s
mother. So I have no right to intervene. Mrs. Beckett, you are not Mr. Beckett’s biological
mother, either Don’t you think it’s unbecoming of an older family member to speak of
these things in
Sophia was rendered speechless.

“Yes, Winston is indeed my man,” Mandy said firmly. “But I don’t want to hear you say that
I am the lady of the Taylor family again.
Mandy’s stern warning frightened Sophia. And her face turned pale as a ghost. She stood
there as stiff as an ice sculpture.
Alyssa chewed on her lips. She tried to swallow the lump in her throat.
There was only one lady of the Taylor family–her mother.
Jasper pursed his lips, and her stare wavered. He didn’t like Alice. Their relationship was
nothing but a paper record. Besides, she had brought him many unhappy moments by
provoking him on things he was sensitive about.
Strangely, when Sophia taunted Alice, he felt like his dignity was being rubbed on the
ground. He was experiencing empathy for her that he couldn’t begin to comprehend.
“Ms. White, are you looking for Jonah? Shall I accompany you?” Mandy asked gently as her
gaze returned to Alyssa.
“Thank you, Mrs. Taylor. I appreciate it,” Alyssa replied with a gentle and obedient smile of
a well- behaved young lady.
“Such a polite and beautiful child,” Mandy said loud and clear. She held Alyssa’s hand.
“Jonah’s made a wise choice in choosing you as his girlfriend.”
