Since Isabella had never met the person in question, she couldn't form an opinion from their perspective. At this, the Quirks also expressed great regret.

Linda, however, was still persistently trying to persuade.

"I can't let that b*tch continue to bewitch Javier's heart, she must be ruined! I'm not part of the entertainment industry, so I can't dig up any dirt on her, but a girl of her character surely hides many unspeakable secrets. Look into it, expose her on stage, just like those before her. Also, let that foolish woman, Freya, open her eyes wide! Let her see what kind of person she thinks is good, see if she will continue to ignore my advice!" Linda spoke with such self-satisfaction that it left the Quirk family speechless.

"Could it be that there's no dirt on her because she simply has none?" Evian quietly questioned. "The fact that she's still daring to remain on this stage pretty much proves it."

Unable to contain herself, Rosalie retorted, "Milm. Pearson, have you really not seen the previous episodes? It was clearly your godson who wanted to win back Scarlett. Shouldn't you be discouraging your godson instead? Why do you always blame the women who are simply reacting to the situation? It's clearly your precious boy's fault!"

attention.

Linda was just about to lash out when she noticed Selena staring intently at her necklace. She suddenly let out a cold, mocking laugh. "Oh, I get it now. You're just bitter because there are things you can't compete. with me on. So, you deliberately refuse to help. That's quite petty of you, isn't it?"

As she spoke, Linda tilted her neck, attempting to flaunt her pearl necklace from every possible angle.

It could be said that within the circle of high society ladies in this city, there were hardly a few who could surpass her when it came to jewelry.

Watching Linda's boastful demeanor, all the Quirk family wanted to do was scream-Please, stop this horrifying display. They really didn't want to look any closer as they couldn't help but imagine things.

"Mdm Pearson, is this necklace the only thing you have to show off?" Christopher was genuinely afraid. that if he looked any longer, he might conjure up some bizarre image that would taint Ifis mind.

Linda was taken aback, feeling both embarrassed and angry at being exposed. She retorted, "What kind of manners is this? How were you raised by your family?"
