Chapter 272 You’re All Insane

Lydia was fuming, so she called Dominic again.

Right now, Dominic was on his way to see Grant, and all his overseas operations had collapsed entirely.

When Lydia’s call came through, and she told him that Aurelia was having an affair with some German guy, his eyes turned ice cold.

That coldness kept growing, and then it twisted into something completely insane.

His grip on the phone tightened. “Having an affair with a German? Lydia, do you want me to rip that mouth of yours apart?”

Even though part of him was starting to believe it, he still had doubts after all the nasty things Lydia had said about

Aurelia before.

Lydia pressed on. “I’m telling you the truth. Mom and I both heard it.” Her voice was firm.

Pogninic asked, “Heard what exactly?”

“She told that German guy she missed him. What kind of relationship do you think it takes for a woman to say something like that to another man?”

Dominic fell silent. He’d been skeptical before, but now that Lydia put it that way, he was starting to believe her.

Dominic’s grip tightened around the phone, and for a second, he wanted to crush it in his hand.

Lydia’s voice came through sharp and angry. “Dominic, she’s nothing but a slut. I really don’t get what you and

Grant see in her.”

She kept going, her words getting louder. “That woman has caused this family so much pain. I told you she was bad news, but you didn’t believe me. You got mad at me and Mom, and now look. She’s a fucking bitch.”

“Enough.” Dominic’s voice cut through her rant.

Her words set something off in him, and his anger flared hot and immediate.

It was pure instinct, the same way it had always been.

Back when Lydia used to call Aurelia names like this, it had bothered him then, too.

And even now, after everything had blown up between him and Aurelia, hearing Lydia talk about her that way still made him react.

His sharp tone caught Lydia off guard, and she went quiet for a second. Then she fired back, “You’re still defending

her?”

Even after Aurelia betrayed him like that, he was still going to protect her?

Lydia sucked in a breath, and her voice shook with frustration. “You’re all under her spell. You’ve all lost your minds.”

She hung up without another word, clearly done with him, too.

Dominic listened to the deadline, and his head pounded. He pressed his fingers against his temples and didn’t say anything.

Grant. Some guy from Germany. How many more secrets was she hiding?

Did Grant even know about this German man?

Right then, Dominic felt his heart go cold when he thought about everything Aurelia had done.

He’d completely forgotten how this whole mess had even started.

He’d forgotten how the two of them had ended up here in the first place.

The Drake family’s car dropped Lydia and Eleanor off at the corner, and they walked the rest of the way home.

Eleanor stared at the wound on Lydia’s forehead, and her heart ached. “Grant crossed the line. He went way too far. Aurelia’s the one who betrayed him, so why the hell is he taking it out on you?”

Lydia’s voice came out flat. “I don’t know. I really thought Lwasn’t going to make it back today. He almost strangled

me to death.”

If anyone tried to make her go see Grant again, she wouldn’t do it. She couldn’t.

Today’s visit had nearly cost her everything.

“He beat you up like this and almost killed you?” Eleanor’s voice rose. “What exactly did you say to him?”

“Mom, please. Just stop asking.” Lydia’s words came out harsh and tired.

The cold wind bit at her face as they walked home, and exhaustion pulled at every muscle in her body. She was starving, freezing, and completely drained.

And now Eleanor was making it sound like this was somehow her fault.

She didn’t have the energy for this conversation.

Eleanor fell silent.

But seeing Lydia like this only made the anger inside her bygn hotter.

Eleanor walked beside Lydia toward home, and she couldn’t stop complaining. “I can’t believe you wasted such a perfect opportunity like that. This was our best shot at taking Aurelia down.”

Eleanor was so frustrated she could barely think straight.

This had been their golden chance.

If Aurelia lost Grant’s support, their suffering would finally be over. They could finally breathe.

But instead, Lydia came home injured and claimed she nearly died. Eleanor couldn’t accept it.

Lydia shot back, “What about you? Did you even get to meet the Fletcher family elders?”

Eleanor froze. That question made everything worse.

What a complete disaster.

“The Fletcher family didn’t even let me through the door,” Eleanor said bitterly.

They hadn’t just turned her away. They sent a maid to dismiss her, and the things that woman said were absolutely insulting.

Every word made it clear they thought Lydia was poorly raised, and they looked down on both of them.

They acted like the Hawthorne family wasn’t good enough for them, like only they were worthy of the Fletcher name in all of New York.

Fine. If they didn’t want Lydia, she’d find someone better for her daughter.

Did they really think the Hawthorne family needed to beg for their approval?

The more Eleanor thought about it, the angrier she got. The Fletcher family’s attitude toward them was utterly unacceptable.

Lydia heard Eleanor’s words, and she couldn’t take it anymore either. “So we both failed today, didn’t we?”

Eleanor gritted her teeth hard. “The Fletcher family will

regret this.”
