Sophian realized she had made a mistake and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Madam Allison. I saw it was someone familiar, so I didn’t think too much about it.”
Allison shot her a furious glare.
Sophian knew full well that Allison and Susan did not get along, yet she still opened the door for her. Was she out of her mind?
“Oh my, after all that time in Seoul, you didn’t pick up anything good? Still that same fiery temper.” Then came Susan’s mocking voice.
Allison froze for a moment and shifted her gaze toward the doorway.
“How did you get in here?” demanded Allison. Did she not just ring the bell outside?
How did she get in so quickly and without anyone opening the door to the villa?!
Susan gave Sophian a smirking glance. “Your helper let me in.”
Allison frowned, still confused. Susan continued, “I’m living right next door now.”
“Oh, so I heard you got kicked out by Old Master Crawford. Moved right next door, did you? Sticking around like a ghost that won’t go away, living just next to Luke, huh? What’s the plan? Afraid Old Master Crawford might slip something extra to Luke behind your back and cut into your share? So, you had to move next door to keep a close watch, is that it?” Allison mocked mercilessly.
Sophian stood by, sweating nervously.
She had only witnessed their feud on New Year's before, but with no Crawford family members around right now, maybe the two would start fighting. If they did start fighting, could she leave?
Sophian was not inclined to take anyone’s side. She just wanted to escape the brewing storm between these two. It was terrifying!
Susan’s gaze turned steely as she looked at Allison with a forced smile, lightly touching her own face.
Even though she was a little older than Allison, her skin was still in excellent condition, a fact she was only too happy to flaunt. “Look at you. Your face is practically falling apart, yet that mouth of yours still can’t hold back. What, do you plan to keep going until your mouth rots as much as your face before you learn when to shut up?”
Allison’s expression twisted with rage. She wished she could tear Susan’s mouth off.
Her face had always been a sore spot, and Susan was hitting it right where it hurt. She could hardly hold back her fury as she pointed angrily at the door with eyes blazing. “This is my home! I’ll say whatever I want here! Who are you to lecture me? Get out! You’re not welcome here!”
Instead of leaving, Susan gracefully seated herself on the couch, crossing her legs with an amused look on her face.
“Went to Seoul but came back with a botched face and no manners?” sneered Susan. Then, she continued, “Seems like the etiquette lessons Old Master Crawford paid for were a waste. You think anyone would believe you’re a lady? Frankly, if people called you a common street shrew, no one would question it.
“Then again, a shrew is a shrew, I suppose. With your face falling apart like that, I guess you don’t have the guts to show it in public. Manners or not, no one will ever know you’re this much of a spitfire in private.”
Allison was furious beyond words!
She did not even know how to respond, so she glared at Sophian and snapped, “Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Get her out of here, now!”
“Yes, Madam!” Sophian quickly stepped forward, steeling herself as she addressed Susan, “Madam Crawford, you’re not welcome here. Please leave.”
Susan narrowed her eyes. “Say that again?”
Sophian mustered the courage, “Please…”
Before she could finish, a sharp slap echoed through the room.
Susan’s hand flew through the air, landing a sharp slap across her face.
Sophian clutched her face, letting out a startled scream. She could not believe Susan actually slapped her!
“Do you know who I am? Yet you still have the nerve to try to throw me out?” With a look of pure disdain, Susan pulled out a tissue and meticulously wiped her hand, her gaze sharp and unyielding.
