From Discarded Wife to Queen (Tyrone) novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23

This revelation made the group of socialites‘ eyes widen in disbelief.

“What! Is she out of her mind!”

After Abigail snapped back to reality, anger surged through her,

making her voice sharp and unrestrained.“She actually dares to tell us

to leave? Who’s really the one who should go? A lowly bitch daring to

scold her betters?”

“Bianca, why are you being so polite to her?” Evelyn asked, frowning

in confusion. “She’s so arrogant–you should have your mom kick her

out!”

Bianca pressed her lips together, struggling for the right words.

“Evelyn, Abigail, don’t be angry. She comes from that kind of

background, so her manners are… a bit rough.”

She didn’t finish, but everyone understood. “What’s the saying? Bad places breed bad people.”

“Alright, alright, don’t stoop to her level. She’s not from our world,

anyway.”

Chapter 23

Matthew proposed a settlement: if Isabella didn’t complain, he would

find an excuse to leave the Taylor family immediately.

The Isabella of that time was too embarrassed to speak up; she still

wanted to maintain a good relationship with the Taylor family. She

didn’t want this to get out and make everyone look at her differently.

She couldn’t bear the thought of her brothers suspecting that she had

actually seduced the teacher.

Her sense of shame was overwhelming–she actually accepted the

settlement, trapping herself in the process…

Later, whenever Isabella thought about it, she regretted not exposing

Matthew’s misconduct and making him face the condemnation he

truly deserved.

Thinking of this, Isabella immediately quickened her pace as she

entered. Could the tutor Olivia was interviewing now be…?

As she entered the living room, that familiar face came into view

once again–just as she had expected.

It really was him! From across the room, Isabella watched Matthew

sitting on the sofa, talking with Olivia, disgust flashing in her eyes.

Just then, Olivia spotted her in the doorway and immediately waved

her over.

“Isabella, perfect timing. Come here.” Isabella obeyed and walked

over.

A wealthy lady sitting on the sofa couldn’t help glancing at Isabella a

few more times, frowning at her outfit.

Olivia noticed immediately, her fingers clenching, and said to the

lady, “This is the maid’s child I mentioned to you.” The lady nodded in

understanding.

No wonder she’s dressed so poorly.

Olivia turned to Isabella. “I found you a tutor. I’ve already

interviewed him, and he’s qualified in every way.” “Starting tomorrow,

he’ll come every evening from seven to eleven to give you lessons-

four hours each night. He’ll be responsible for all your subjects.”

Then she looked at Matthew. “Mr. Moore, I’ll be counting on you to

take care of Isabella.”

Matthew smiled at Isabella. “Hello, Isabella.”

Isabella looked him in the eye. Someone like you… do you even

deserve to be called a teacher?”

Matthew froze, staring at Isabella, words failing him for a long

moment.

Olivia had never expected Isabella to say something like that. Her

face darkened instantly with anger. “Isabella! He’s the teacher I hired

for you!”

“Sorry, Ms. Smith.” Isabella shrugged, her expression indifferent. “I

don’t think he’s good enough. Get me a new teacher.”

“You…” Olivia’s anger choked her, making it hard to breathe. What

nerve she had.

Olivia pressed a hand to her chest, lingering for a moment before

regaining her composure. “You don’t think he’s good enough? Do you

realize that Mr. Moore used to be an outstanding teacher at Stellar

High School? He’s produced countless exceptional students.” “So

many people want to hire him for tutoring… and yet they can’t?”

I pulled so many strings to get Mr. Moore here for you, and you have

the nerve to be picky.”

Olivia was absolutely furious. Useless trash.

Stupid, and yet not humble enough to learn–how dare she be so

arrogant!

“So what if he’s an outstanding teacher? What does that have to do

with me?” Isabella glanced at Matthew, her voice flat. “Learn to be a

decent human being first.”

With that, Isabella turned and headed upstairs.

“Isabella, you…” Olivia’s eyes reddened with anger.

She was so rebellious!

Even in front of others, she showed no respect for her mother.

Olivia wanted to rush upstairs and drag Isabella back down, but with

guests present, she had to choke back her anger and steady her

emotions.

She turned to look at Matthew apologetically. “I’m so sorry, Mr.

Moore. “This child is just resistant to tutoring; that’s why she’s acting

this

way. Please, don’t take it personally.”

Matthew looked away, his expression returning to its usual kindness,

as if he hadn’t taken what just happened to heart at all. “It’s fine. I understand.“Teenagers behave like this.

“I’m truly sorry,” Olivia said, forcing a smile. “I’ll have a serious talk

with her today. Please feel free to come for the lesson tomorrow.”

She had seen Isabella’s report card from the town school – it was

terrible.

How could she go without tutoring? School was starting soon, and

once she reached Stellar High School, how could someone with her

mind keep up?
