The damage you inflicted could easily backfire on you later on.
Even if you did not suffer the backlash, you would have a record and your life would be blemished if you were convicted.
The onlookers soon dispersed.
Everyone resumed drinking, chatting happily as if nothing had ever happened.
Knowing now that her daughter-in-law was not a pushover and would retaliate immediately after being insulted, Rosella felt much more at ease.
Mrs. House invited the madams into her parlor.
Once the York madams left, Carrie approached Camryn and politely asked, “Hello, Mrs. York, Ms. House. May I sit with you?”
“Of course, Mrs. Longbottom.”
Tasha had a positive impression of Mrs. Longbottom because she spoke up for Camryn earlier.
It was also easier for young people to mix with other young people.
Although Mrs. Longbottom was married, she was very young and had no topics in common with the other madams at the gathering.
Camryn thanked Carrie politely. “I’m still on medication, so I can’t drink. When Ms. Abrams said that about me, she reminded me of that troublemaker sister of mine.
“She went about causing trouble, relying on my mother’s favoritism toward her. My mother really favored her, and spoiled her rotten. If my mother had been even half as smart as Mrs. Abrams, my sister would not have ended up the way she did.”
Carrie was struck speechless.
Do not get angry!
Do not get angry!
She would be exposed the moment she got angry.
Right now, she was Mrs. Longbottom, not the second daughter of the Newmans, and not Camryn’s younger sister.
Camryn’s negative words about Carrie had nothing to do with her and were not referring to her.
Carrie did not know why, but she felt like Camryn was testing her repeatedly by bringing her up in the conversation.
Two of the Longbottoms’ bodyguards were following Carrie nearby.
Having followed her for some time, they had gained some understanding of this woman.
They could tell that she was on the verge of losing her temper from her reaction.
Worried that she would not be able to restrain herself from flipping out and ruining all their effort thus far, the two bodyguards hurried forward.
One of them approached Carrie and leaned down to whisper into her ear, “Madam, we should go back now.”
The half an hour was up.
After saying that, the bodyguard stood straight.
Tasha looked at the two bodyguards and felt that they looked very fierce.
“Ms. House, Mrs. York. I still have something to do at home, so I’m heading back now.”
“Already? Why don’t you stay a little while longer?”
