Back at the living hall, Joshua glared at Jeanne as she walked away. Displeased, he said, "Where are her manners? Dad talked to her and she didn't even give a proper response."

Jenifer had a glance at her son. "Shush. Your sister just came back. Just give her some time to fit in."

"You're still defending her? She insulted you yesterday. Did you forget that?" Joshua's anger was obvious.

"Enough." Jenifer stopped her son from talking.

Alexander was also displeased by Jeanne's response.

As if Jeanne no longer respected him as a father, but on second thought, Jeanne was just a tool to him, so he did not need to be angry with her either.

He got up and said, "I'll go up to talk to Father."

"Sure." Jenifer nodded respectfully. She was the one who took good care of Alexander all these years and all men would like a woman like her. She was smart, obedient, and knew her place within the house. Right after Alexander went up, Jasmine reverted to her true form.

"Mom, look at her. I don't like that arrogance of hers. Not only Joshua but even I also can't stand her anymore! Who does she think she is? The princess of the house? We threw her out seven years ago. She's now just some woman with a child! Why tolerate her attitude?"

"It's not that I want to tolerate her attitude but I don't have the time or the energy to be calculative with

someone like her," Jenifer said with a vicious grin.

"Once she married Thedus, that would be the end of her life. So, why do we have to waste our time on her? I let her be herself now because I don't want her to embarrass your father. You should know how far she can go if she's provoked. If we did something to her and caused her to ruin the marriage, we'll be held responsible by your father and your grandfather."

Jasmine understood her mother's patience.

Everyone tolerated Jeanne's attitude because they wanted her to marry Thedus.

Jeanne must have known that everyone depended on her now, hence the arrogance.
