Chapter 82
As a fellow member of the upper circle, Dona knew what Catherine meant. Although disgruntled, she smiled and agreed as well. “Since you are that busy, let’s just put the engagement on hold first.”
“Great. I’ll talk to you later.”
“Talk to you soon.”
Dona put her phone down with a dour look on her face.
Sonia just came in and saw the look on her mother’s face “Mom, what happened?”
Dona grunted. “I don’t know what’s gotten into the Ledgers, but they want to put your engagement with Tristan on hold first.”
Sonia widened her eyes in shock before they welled up in tears. Upset, she cried, “It must be Sylvia! That bitch!”
The name Sylvia surprised Dona. “What? What about Sylvia? Stop crying first, Sonia. Tell me what happened.”
“Sylvia is seducing “Tristan. She working at his studio, and because of her, Tristan wants to call off the engagement…”
While tears rolled down her cheeks, she told her mother how she was chased out of Tristan’s studio twice because of Sylvia.
“I really underestimated that little bitch.” Dona was furious. She sat Sonia down on the couch and offered comfort. “Sonia, I’ll handle this. Don’t worry, Sylvia will pay for what she has done.”
“Mom, you have to do something about her. She’s a conniving little bitch. If she’s still there, Tristan will be forever under her spell.”
Dona grunted, “I will.”
After calming Sonia down, Dona started thinking about a plan.
Sylvia had been chased out of the Rosses apart from having had two kids, and she was Odell’s ex-wife.
Given Dona’s understanding of Catherine’s character, there was no way that the Ledgers would agree with Tristan being together with Sylvia
Some thoughts later, the only plausible explanation would be that Catherine and Bruce had no idea that Tristan wanted to call off the engagement because of Sylvia.
Dona grinned and picked up her glass of wine. Sonia was just beside her. She noticed the grin on her mother’s face and asked, “Mom, have you come up with something?”
“I’ll call Mrs. Ross later and tell her about Tristan and Sylvia,” Dona answered with a smile.
Sonia failed to understand. “Why are you telling her that?”
“Do you think Mrs. Ross will accept Sylvia as her daughter-in-law once she knows Tristan wants to call off the engagement because of her?”
Sonia’s eyes glimmered, “Sylvia is a divorcee and a mother of two. There’s no way Mrs. Ross will accept her!”
