Violet felt increasingly uncomfortable as she watched Shelia and Melody interact so intimately.
After exchanging pleasantries, Melody glanced at her and asked, "Why are you still standing there?"
"I..." Violet felt humiliated, unsure how to respond.
Melody waved her hand dismissively. "You can go now. I need to have a private conversation with Jade."
"But..." Violet wanted to protest, but Melody's tone left no room for negotiation.
Sensing the shift in the room, Shelia smiled and said, "It seems Mrs. Sosa has something important to discuss with you. Maybe I should come back another time?"
Melody didn't answer. Violet, catching the unspoken cue, quickly interjected, "It's nothing important. I've got something at home. I'll leave now."
Before leaving, she sneaked one more glance at the ring on Shelia's finger.
If her memory served her right, the ring was the Nichols family's heirloom.
She couldn't help but wonder if Melody wanted Juan and Shelia to get married again. That meant one more person to get a share of the Nichols family's fortune.
The thought gnawed at Violet as she made her exit.
"Sophie, bring some tea for Miss Blair," Melody ordered.
"Will do," Sophie replied, finally snapping out of her daze.
