When she realized how much effort he went to just to win over Alicia’s mom, she was eaten up with jealousy and bitterness.

She even put herself through the pain of watching a video someone else had recorded of their wedding.

After that, her family just shoved her into a marriage with some flashy upstart.

At first, things seemed okay, but within a few years, her husband went bankrupt, and her own family’s fortunes crashed right along with his.

All the while, she kept a close eye on Alicia’s mom, watching her marry the man she herself loved and live a picture-perfect life, while her own situation just kept spiraling downhill.

That just made her hate Alicia’s mom even more.

When she heard Alicia’s mom had passed away, she couldn’t help but pop open a bottle of champagne to celebrate.

After that, she began scheming ways to get close to Leo.

She even got someone to lure her ex-husband into gambling, so he’d rack up a mountain of debt.

Then, while dodging debt collectors, she made sure to “accidentally” run into Leo’s car.

She told him they’d gone to middle school together and pleaded with him to help her out.

Sure enough, he helped her out. After that, she kept finding excuses to be around him, always looking for ways to stay close.

She kept reminding him that his third son and little daughter were still so young and really needed someone to care for them.

Whenever he was around, she’d act all sweet and considerate, playing up the perfect, gentle

woman.

Eventually, she won him over and married him, cutting ties with her ex and her family once

and for all.

All these years, she never lived the high life like other socialites, with spa days and endless shopping sprees.

Instead, she was the model wife, always at home. Even with a house full of staff, she’d still roll up her sleeves and cook for the family herself.

Whenever her husband had to travel overseas for work, she’d tag along, fussing over him and making sure he had everything he needed.

Their bond only grew stronger as time went on.

All she wanted was for him to be hers and hers alone, so she did everything she could to erase any memory of Alicia’s mom from his heart.

She absolutely despised Alicia’s mom, and since Alicia looked so much like her, she couldn’t stand Alicia either.

She was dead set on making her own daughter, Nicole, the only heiress of the Hammond family.

That’s why she always put on a show of treating Alicia even better than her own daughter, but behind closed doors, she was always plotting against Alicia.

She even tried to set Alicia up for failure by pretending to shower her with praise and favors, hoping to ruin her, but that girl was way too sharp to fall for it.

Alicia caught on to her schemes and called her out to Leo.

Fortunately, Mavis had always kept up her perfect act, so Hammond brushed off Alicia’s

accusations.

After Mavis put on a tearful show, making herself look all wronged, Hammond just assumed Alicia was going through a rebellious phase.

Mavis just couldn’t bring herself to accept Alicia and her mother, all because of that old grudge she held against Alicia’s mom.

Even though she never managed to ruin Alicia, at least all the drama she and Nicole stirred up kept Alicia constantly fighting with the Hammond men.

‘If this keeps up, sooner or later those Hammond men will stop caring about Alicia altogether,’ Mavis thought, scheming to herself.

But who could’ve guessed that wretched girl would actually be the one to take the initiative and cut ties with the Hammond family?

Nicole had already told her about it, and the Hammond brothers were deliberately keeping their father in the dark.

So she’d been helping cover it up, making sure her husband stayed clueless.

She’d thought the same as the Hammond brothers-that Alicia was just bluffing, using the whole “cutting ties” thing as a bargaining chip.
