seventh lord’s wife, everyone who encountered her treated her with utmost respect.

At a charity gala, Zane had instructed Bianca to bid on a painting at any cost.

But fate had its twists, and she bumped into Jade.

“You sly fox! Just because Malcolm didn’t want you, you immediately latched onto Zane!” Jade sneered, barely finishing her sentence before she received a stinging slap across her face.

The force was evident, making Jade taste blood. She could feel the warmth of the slap lingering on her cheek.

“How dare you strike me?” Jade exclaimed in disbelief.

“Does it hurt?”

“I’m going to tell Malcolm!” Jade threatened, infuriated by Bianca’s audacity.

How dare this woman slap her?!

But Bianca dismissed her threat with a smirk. “You’re already an old woman. Yet, you’re acting like a child? How embarrassing!”

“Who are you calling old?” Jade seethed, her face fluctuating between pale and purple with

rage.

Bianca leaned in and said, “Take care, dear. Your temper might harm your kidneys.”

Her voice was soft, but it was tinged heavily with mockery.

Jade staggered back, nearly collapsing.

The sheer audacity of this woman!

Jade felt a burning desire to tear Bianca apart.

She was such a hateful woman! How dare she!
