Chapter 311

“Vivienne, I heard about the incident at your home. My mother, bless her heart, tends to speak her

mind. Sometimes she speaks without even considering the consequences hope you can overlook this

for my sake” Calista stepped forward with an apologetic tone

In front of Percival, the man she couldn’t let go of, no matter how hard she tried, she had to do her

utmost to impress him. She needed to paint herself in the best light

She gestured towards a handbag on display and turned to the attendant “Please wrap this up for

Vivienne It’s my way of apologizing

“You’re asking me to overlook this for your sake? Vivienne looked at her as a smirk played on her lips

Are you that important?

“L” Calista was taken aback by Vivienne’s response Her cool demeanor evaporated, leaving behind a

small and visibly flustered woman.

Mila, after seeing her daughter insulted frowned Vivienne Calista is genuinely trying to apologize, and

you’m throwing it back in her face? What kind of attitude is that?”

Even if Vivienne was recognized by the Brooks family, in Mila’s eyes, she was still a country bumpkin.

She was far beneath their social standing

And so, Mila wished she could personally set Vivienne straight and teach her a lesson in manners

“You are nothing like a lady of the Brooks family I suggest you adjust your attitude, lest you embarrass

Scott Mila’s rebuke was cold and harsh

Is that so? Percival’s icy gaze turned towards them as a shadow spread across his face. Are you

questioning Viviennes status?

Even if Vivienne wasn’t the rightful heiress of the Brooks family, it wasn’t Mila’s place to scorn her

1. I didn’t mean it like that. “Mila stuttered under Percival’s intense gaze Mr. Ellington, you

misunderstood. I’m just saying Vivienne isn’t suitable for you. She’s punching above her weight”

Percival though known to be a wastrel, was also known to have the backing of Richard Ellington, the

patriarch of the Ellington family

No matter how worthless Percival was considered, Richard’s endorsement was all that mattered

Mila with her ambitions of becoming the matriarch of the Brooks family, was not willing to settle for an

ordinary man for her daughter. The opportunity to align with the powerful Ellington family seemed like a

good prospect

After all, it was Percival who had funded Calista’s research.

While looking down at her, Percival moved to put an arm around Vivienne “Punching above her weight?

“Mr Ellington, don’t take it to heart. My mother was out of line. She’s just overly protective of her

daughter” Calista, fuming inside, forced herself to apologize on behalf of her mother “Vivienne, you

don’t have to feel obliged. This gift is just a way to show my sincerity, nothing more

The bag was worth at least a million dollars. It might not impress the usual socialites, but for Vivienne, it

should be more than enough

What kind of luxury would a country girl like her encounter? Gifting her such an expensive item was a

privilege.

She conveniently forgot about Vivienne’s billion–dollar gemstone bid at the auction and Judith’s

generous 30 million–dollar gift to her

Not to mention Richard’s promise to give Vivienne anything she wanted, even if it cost a hundred

billion.

“It’s quite ugly” Vivienne said while looking at the bag with a blank expression, completely ignoring

Calista’s so–called ‘apology”

Calista was taken aback “What did you say?”

“Are you not only aesthetically challenged but also hearing impaired? Vivienne flicked her hair back.

“You could use that money for a check–up.”

Incensed and humiliated Calista clenched her teeth as her anger bubbled up her throat.

Why was Vivienne so arrogant? It was all because of Percival’s support

She couldn’t understand why Percival preferred Vivienne over her in every aspect, she felt she was no

less than her

“Vivienne, don’t push it too far Calista tried to keep her anger in check while Mila was silently raging

beside her

“Enough” Vivienne glanced at them dismissively and turned to Percival “Let’s go somewhere else.”

“Sure Percival agreed with a smile.

His warm and radiant smile pierced Calista’s heart and occupied her every thought

Before she could react, Percival had already taken Vivienne’s hand and led her away.

“That impudent girl” After watching them enter another luxury store, Mila finally snapped “She thinks

too highly of herself! Just because she’s accepted by the Brooks, she thinks she can show off in front

of us?”

“Mom Calista turned to her grumbling mother as her own frustration also simmered “Why are you

picking fights with Vivienne? It’s like you’re asking for trouble

Percival was there, so they had to keep up the charade They couldn’t let him catch wind of their true

feelings towards Vivienne

“You’re blaring me now? Didn’t you see how Vivienne was acting? Shes so arrogant! it’s as if she’s

about to step on us” Mila was itated just thinking about it. I don’t know how she got so lucky She’s not

only the heiress of the Brooks family but is also betrothed to the Ellington family heir

Calista felt the same but she couldn’t let it show in front of Percival

“Ainght don’t be angry Seeing that Calista was still upset. Mila patted her on the back and said “Didn’t

you just see a handbag you liked? I’ll buy it for you. Stop thinking about these annoying things

She pointed to the sales assistant and said “Pack up the bag we were looking at earlier. We’re buying it

“I’m sorry, ma’am As Mila was about to swipe her credit card the sales have any stocks left You may

want to try another store”

What?

sistant politely said. “The geritleman who was just here bought everything in the store. We dont

Mila and Calista looked at each other in surprise, as Calista slowly clenched her fista in anger. She had

been eyeing that bag for a long time but couldn’t bring herself to buy it because of its high price

Even though she was the rich heiress of the Pendleton family, she couldn’t just buy everything she

wanted

Yet, Percival casually bought the bag she had been longing for Apparently it was for Vivienne

Calista’s face turned pale with rage.

Vivienne!
