Noah saw the change in his mother's expression, and immediately advised, "Mom, please, let's discuss this calmly…"
"Be quiet, you useless thing! They've already bullied their way into our residence, and you're still playing the part of the dutiful son?" Dorothy shouted in fury, her face contorted with rage. "Get out of the way!"
She walked over and took a seat, taking a deep breath as she met Helen's gaze.
"Place and rank? Once the duchess married into our family, she became one of us—our daughter-in-law! Women follow their husbands both at home and in public. Yet, she stirred up trouble and even incited the Hell Monarch's princess consort to report her own husband, all for some domestic matter. What family doesn't have concubines? Instead of learning from the good examples, she's picked up all the bad habits—envy and pettiness. She's learned them all too well."
Helen's eyes widened in shock.
Wait, was Dorothy talking about Carissa? Was Dorothy referring to Helen's daughter-in-law, the one who had always protected her before even officially joining the family?
With a loud crash, Helen's cup shattered on the floor, porcelain shards scattering as she shouted, "Old hag! Don't force me to slap your face myself!"
That move left everyone in the room stunned into silence. Even Dorothy was taken aback, her eyes wide with disbelief as she stared at Helen.
How could Helen be so indifferent to propriety?
Helen stood up and walked directly toward Dorothy, her finger pointing threateningly, her nails pressing against the old lady's nose.
"You raised such a shameless grandson, and still dare to speak so boldly in front of me? You claim that Leona incited my daughter-in-law to report this beast of a man? Did you see it with your own eyes? Hear it with your own ears? If you don't produce evidence today, I'll destroy your family!"
"What… You…" Dorothy's lips trembled with anger. "Lady Helen, this is my family's estate! How dare you speak so arrogantly?"

I wish there were more chapters uploaded daily. Atleast 10 per day....

I’ve read several novels, but this is the best of the best....
I hope that Rafael will not fall for Carmen. I don’t think I can keep reading if he does. Carissa deserves to have a pure and strong love with Rafael that world stand the test of time and all trials and tribulations....
