Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1818

Shirley, impressed by Ada’s acting skills, smiled. “ The credit for this belongs to you, Viscountess.”

“   .” Ada’s expression froze, but she hurriedly changed into a look of innocence. “I don’t understand what you’re saying, Miss Brown. It’s chilly outside, You should come in and talk.”

“Thank you, then, Viscountess.” Shirley rolled her eyes at Ada and looked up at Cathy. “Let’s go, Cathy.”

It was the first time Shirley addressed Cathy by name.

Cathy, still surprised, pushed Cathy into the manor.

Ada had only invited Shirley into the house because she knew that Carter and Camille were not home at this moment.

Otherwise, she would not have allowed this “ dangerous” person to enter.

With an air of  authority  as the hostess of  the manor, Ada instructed the servants to serve tea and desserts to Cathy and Shirley.

“Please enjoy. The desserts were crafted by our pastry chef. They’re comparable to those from hotels with five and six stars.”

Ada invited them with a smile, appearing dignified and generous.

Shirley did not even bother to look at her. “I’ve been eating desserts at the Gray’s for years, so I’m more familiar with it than you are. Don’t trouble yourself with an introduction.”

“Moreover, I’m already tired of these desserts. After all, I’ve had them for so many years. You should save them for yourself instead.”

Ada’s expression turned unpleasant as she struggled to hold the smile on her face.

They both knew what Ada had done to Shirley, even though Ada refused to admit it.

“You’re being too polite, Miss Brown. We’re considered friends after all.”

“There’s no need for this. I’m not here to have tea with you,” Shirley said coldly, “tell Carter to come out.”

“ .” Ada raised her eyebrows when she heard Shirley. “Unfortunately, Miss Brown, my husband isn’t home.”
