Damaris finished her sentence with a smug expression, even secretly shooting Seraphina a knowing look.
After all, Seraphina had just instructed her that Mika definitely wouldn't admit to it, and told Damaris not to mention who gave her the information.
Mika felt a familiar wave of suffocation and anger well up in her chest, followed immediately by her cheeks burning with embarrassment and fury.
It had been like this since she was a child.
Damaris was always stubbornly set in her ways, oblivious to the situation, selfish, snobbish, and impossible to communicate with. The number of times she had humiliated Mika was countless.
Her personality was actually one of the reasons she had never remarried.
And Mika had even confided this detail to Seraphina.
Mika cast a faint glance at Seraphina beside her, then turned to look at Lucas, her weak voice suppressing a trace of anger.
"I'm sorry, my mom might have some misunderstanding and crashed your party. I'll take her away first, enjoy yourselves."
With that, Mika kept a cold face and grabbed Damaris's hand. "Come with me."
Damaris dodged her hand and hurriedly scrambled behind Lucas, her eyes widening in disbelief.
"What's that supposed to mean? You think your mother is an embarrassment? If it weren't for me, do you think you'd have grown up?
Do you know how hard it is to find a man when you're dragging extra baggage around? What, now that you've climbed the social ladder, you find your mother embarrassing!?"
Mika felt a throbbing pain in her temples and continued to chase after her.
"Come with me, I'll explain everything to you when we get back!"
"I'm not leaving! Why should I leave!" Damaris ran behind Quincy's chair.
"Even Quince hasn't kicked me out, what right do you have to kick me out? Right, Quince?"
Quincy had never encountered an elder with this kind of personality either, and being put on the spot, he could only offer an awkward smile.
