NovelEnglishChapter 1986 Teasing Kaylee could hardly believe her own eyes.
At the stime, her desire to becMrs. Wickam grew even stronger. Being able to live in this place is a thousand times better than marrying that good-for-nothing cousin of mine! Besides, | was always the best in the village. Only someone like Gareth is a good match for me! With those thoughts in mind, Kaylee raised her head and followed the butler all the way to Julia.
Only after entering did she realize what the saying “Not flaunting one’s wealth” truly meant.
Selling any one of the murals and antique collections in the building would be enough to provide for an ordinary family for a lifetime.
A glint of greed appeared in Kaylee's eyes, which she believed she hid well.
Unbeknownst to her, every single person before her was incredibly sharp.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtArriving in front of everyone, Kaylee scanned the entire room, recognizing all the familiar faces.
Only Elisa was not present.
10 Kaylee was overjoyed. Could it be that Elisa didn’t cat all or had left early? Regardless, with Elisa absent, it's the perfect opportunity forto curry favor and tarnish Elisa's reputation.
The one in the master’s seat was an elderly lady, her appearance kind and benevolent.
The silver-white strands of her hair did not conceal her charisma in the slightest..
Tnever truly defeated a beauty. One could still vaguely see the old woman's appearance when she was young.
Though the old woman dressed simply, one could tell her outfit was far from cheap.
As such, Kaylee presumed the old woman must be Julia. With a thoughtful heart, Kaylee politely greeted Julia.
“Hello, Madam Smith.” Kaylee smiled sweetly, her eyes shyly glancing at Gareth..
However, Gareth wasn't looking at her at all, which saddened her.
Bella rolled her eyes at that. She truly doesn’t know her place, huh? We should have never agreed to bring her out in the first place. We should've just given her a million or two and sent her off. Whether she lives a good life or not after that, it's her own business. After she entered the wider world, her horizons were broadened, but her status and abilitie didn’t improve. All it did was lead her to unrealistic ambitions.
“Julia” did not respond to Kaylee, leaving the latter feeling somewhat awkward for a moment.
Despite her kind and gentle appearance, Julia was surprisingly difficult to get along with...
Suddenly, Bella spoke up from the side, her tone playful. “Kaylee, why do you think she’s Madam Smith?” Kaylee glanced around, suspecting that Bella was probably setting a trap because the latter didn't like her.

1 She glanced nervously at “Julia,” but the latter's gaze was somewhat sharp. It caused Kaylee to start sweating.
Immediately after, she directed her pleading eyes toward Gareth.
However, Gareth didn’t even look at her.
Kaylee hung her head low, biting her lip in resentment. Even though Elisa is not here, why can’t his gaze fall on anyone else? “I...” She lifted her head, not forgetting to respond to Bella's words. It's because Madam Smith has the aura of a matriarch and because | instantly feel like old friends with her.” “Is that so?” Bella asked, her tone inscrutable.
Kaylee nodded in agreement.
Bella laughed.
Just as Kaylee was still puzzled, a powerful voice rang out. “You hear that, Maria? This young lady says she instantly feels like old friends with you.” Right after that, Elisa was seen a*sisting an elderly lady as they walked over.
As soon as Julia appeared, Maria immediately seemed weaker.
Maria was too kind-hearted, giving off a vibe that she was easy to take advantage of.
Julia was different. The moment she stepped onto the scene, it becclear who was the one in power.
