“I have always told you that you shouldn’t look down on people because of their background but non
have you have ever listened to me! Hope this will be a lesson to you all!” the old Mrs Scott said
when they reached the mansion.
Hearing what she had said, everyone lowered their heads out of shame while Harriet regretted
everything as she would be now boosting to her female friends that her daughter–in–law was from the
Andersons but now thinking about it, she was sure that by tomorrow morning, the news would have
spread and their family will become the city’s r even worse the whole country’s laughingstock as the
Andersons are widely known and recognized.
“Look at the woman you choose to be your daughter–in–law, Harriet!” Old Mrs Scott added making Marie
who had followed them back lower her head out of shame and her eyes filled with malice as she wished
she could kill Amanda so that she wouldn’t be compared to anyone anymore.
“I knew what was going on in your mind. You are thinking of how to make Amanda come back into ou
family but 1 will end that wishful thinking today. I made a mistake in the past and I hurt Amanda
deeply and there is no way I will make the same mistake,” the old woman said with sadness making
Harriet frown as she felt some crisis.
“Mom, what are you trying to do? You won’t be hurting Amanda by doing everything possible for her t
marry Damien once more. Instead, you will be doing her a great favor as she loves him so much,”
Harriet said making the old woman, Damien, and Marie think that she was so foolish.
“You think she still loves her, huh? If she did, would she be taking revenge on us? Would she have
allowed her father to hurt Damien? Would she have allowed that little girl to hurt Eunice? Would she
have kicked us out? Open your eyes widely and see what is really happening before saying something!”
Old Mrs Scott said making Harriet feel worried but she didn’t say it loudly.
“You love her so much, are you just going to let her go? If she marries back into your family, you
will be with her every day,” Harriet added as she wasn’t ready to give up.
Marie lifted her head and looked at Harriet with hatred.
‘She always praised me and did everything to get in my good books but now she is choosing Amanda over me cause of her rich family? No Way! Wait, when I get married to Damien, I will make you suffer!”
Marie said inwardly as she glared at Harriet.

The old woman saw her gaze and sighed inwardly but she knew that what had happened had happened. All she could do was try her best way to prevent Marie from getting into the family.
Damien had seen Marie lowering her head upon his grandmother’s words and had still noticed her looking at his mother when she said what she said but he couldn’t see the emotions in her eyes from where he was seated thus he thought that she was just in pain.
“Grandma, mother, you should all stop talking about Amanda or arguing about how she will be the Scott: daughter–in–law once more. I will never marry her again even if she is the last woman on this planet! My heart belongs to Marie and she is the only woman I am willing to marry.” Damien said in a serious tone. The women glared at him, but Damien pretended that he didn’t see their look.
Marie on the other hand felt warmth when she heard that. She had been afraid that Damien might no marry her as she was inferior to Amanda and also the fact that he had not mentioned their wedding
after getting engaged.
She felt warmth in her heart and looked at Damien her eyes full of affection.
Eunice who had been seated looking at Marie was very dissatisfied with her. She remembered that when something happened to her out there, when they got home, the first thing Amanda always did was ter to her but now, her face had been itchy and swollen since they were at the Andersons but the woman didn’t say anything about treating her wounds.
She started regretting some of the things she did in the past but there was still some hatred in her heart as she blamed Amanda for what had happened to her at the party.
She stood up and started walking towards the kitchen where she knew she would find her nanny. Although she would have asked for her mother’s help, she that her mother’s mind was filled with how
Amanda will be her daughter–in–law once more.
They looked at her when she stood up and that’s when they remembered about her injury. Without knowing they all remembered how Amanda was in the past and admitted that Marie would always be inferior to Amanda as she didn’t bother helping Eunice who she claimed was her dear friend when she was in pai
Damien was also disappointed in her but he couldn’t bring himself to say anything as he understood that Marie’s mind was in chaos and was jealous of Amanda. He had lived with her for a long time thus
