Chapter 315

At those words. Adeline immediately stood straight and snatched the box from Eliza’s hands, snapping. You should ve brought this back earlier! Why wait until now? If people didn’t know better, they’d think Your Grace still had feelings for Calebt

But as soon as she looked inside, her eyes widened and she exclaimed, “What? Why is it cracked?”

She grabbed the emerald hairpin in a rage and exclaimed, ‘Do you even know what this is? This was supposed to be passed down to the next daughter–in–law of the Marquis’s estate! Now that you’ve broken it, how is it supposed to be passed on?”

“Enough.” Eliza shot her a cold look and spat. “Let’s be clear–this hairpin wasn’t broken by me. Your precious son smashed it with his own hands. If you don’t believe me, go ask him yourself. Don’t lose your mind in front of me.

Chapter 316

“Nonsense! My son would never do such a thing, he “Adeline instinctively tried to defend her son, but Eliza cut her off mid–sentence

Eliza said, “Right, he wouldn’t. He does things like stealing and framing people. Like, say, sneaking off with your Snow Cream, Lady Adeline, and pinning it on me. Isn’t that right?“.

A half–smile tugged at Eliza’s lips, her eyes filled with biting sarcasm.

Hearing this, Adeline’s face flushed red as she boiled with rage.

What do you mean by stealing? That was my Snow Cream! My son just borrowed his mother’s things, that’s all. How’s that considered heft? Adeline snapped back.

Mmm, true. He just used it on someone else, so technically it’s none of my business. As long as you’re happy. Eliza replied,

As if Adeline could possibly be happy about that!

Adeline’s face turned ashen with fury.

Heaven knew how her heart shattered when she discovered that her son had secretly taken all her Snow Cream to win over Sophie!

Her heart had bled.

Three full jars of Snow Cream were all gone. Not a single drop left for her.

Every time she thought about it, Adeline felt like crying all over again.

Che had nearly managed to forget the whole thing after so much time had passed, but this little brat, Eliza, just had to bring it up again.

adeline was fuming. Normally, she would’ve slapped Eliza across the face already.

But after Dale’s warning last time, Adeline didn’t dare act recklessly again.

No matter how furious she was, all she could do now was glare daggers at Eliza

s long as she didn’t lay hands on her, and as long as she didn’t say anything too offensive, Eliza wouldn’t be able to do a thing to her.

fter all, even if Eliza had become the Holy Lady, Adeline was still Eliza’s aunt by blood.

lizz might’ve left the Signor family, but that blood the remained, and as long as it did, Eliza wouldn’t dare lay a finger on her.

deline strongly believed that family comes before all else, and even as the Holy Lady, Eliza still had to follow that rule!

Tinking that. Adeline gave a cold snort, CANT glance over Eliza, and turned the conversation back to the main issue.

Now that this emerald hairpin is broken, and you say it wasn’t you who broke it, you’d better have some proof. Otherwise, I can’t take ar fall for destroying a family heirloom of the Marquis’s estate.”

family heirloom of the Marquis’s estate? Eliza thought as she nearly laughed aloud when she heard that.

ady Adeline, if the Marquis’s household is truly so poor that you can barely put food on the table, you could’ve just said so, I might ve pared you some money as a token of goodwill”

ou- Adeline – eyes widened in fury as she exclauned. “You se blind if you can’t we its worth! This was passed down to me by Madam evill herself, and I passed it on to you. Who knew you’d turn out so disappointing

ou couldn’t even win over my sun. What use are you? Adeline curled her lip and quickly tried to hide the flicker of guilt in her eyes.

Iright, maybe it’s not exactly an heirloom, she admitted silently. “But it was passed down from Ma–dam Nevill to me, and I plained ass it to my daughter–in–law. If it’s passed from generations to generation, and always goes to the slaughter–in–law su why shouldn’t it

With that thought, Adeline felt more self–assured, but Eliza had long since lost interest in continuing this nonsense.

Eliza cut her off, “Alright, you can keep telling yourself that. I’ll be going now.

leave.

Just then, a carriage arrived outside.

And sure enough, in the next moment, Caleb and Dale stepped down from it together.

Caleb looked up and stared in surprise when his feet touched the ground. He asked. “Eliza? What are you doing here?”
