Chapter 1986 Teasing
Kaylee could hardly believe her own eyes.
At the same time, her desire to become Mrs. Wickam grew even stronger. Being able to live in this place is a thousand times better than marrying that good-for-nothing cousin of mine! Besides, I was always the best in the village. Only someone like Gareth is a good match for me!
With those thoughts in mind, Kaylee raised her head and followed the butler all the way to Julia.
Only after entering did she realize what the saying “Not flaunting one’s wealth” truly meant.
Selling any one of the murals and antique collections in the building would be enough to provide for an ordinary family for a lifetime.
A glint of greed appeared in Kaylee’s eyes, which she believed she hid well.
Unbeknownst to her, every single person before her was incredibly sharp.
Arriving in front of everyone, Kaylee scanned the entire room, recognizing all the familiar faces.
Only Elisa was not present.

Kaylee was overjoyed. Could it be that Elisa didn’t come at all or had left early? Regardless, with Elisa absent, it’s the perfect opportunity for me to curry favor and tarnish Elisa’s reputation.
The one in the master’s seat was an elderly lady, her appearance kind and benevolent.
The silver-white strands of her hair did not conceal her charisma in the slightest..
Time never truly defeated a beauty. One could still vaguely see the old woman’s appearance when she was
young.
Though the old woman dressed simply, one could tell her outfit was far from cheap.
As such, Kaylee presumed the old woman must be Julia. With a thoughtful heart, Kaylee politely greeted Julia.
“Hello, Madam Smith.” Kaylee smiled sweetly, her eyes shyly glancing at Gareth..
However, Gareth wasn’t looking at her at all, which saddened her.
Bella rolled her eyes at that. She truly doesn’t know her place, huh? We should have never agreed to bring her out in the first place. We should’ve just given her a million or two and sent her off. Whether she lives a good life or not after that, it’s her own business. After she entered the wider world, her horizons were broadened, but her status and abilitie didn’t improve. All it did was lead her to unrealistic ambitions.
