Chapter 71 Wretched Woman

Michaela and Jonathan didn’t leave the dining room after they finished their meal.

It would be awkward if they did. Besides, she was in the Xander residence at the moment, so it wouldn’t be nice for an outsider to make things worse.

It wasn’t until she heard Mavis’ harsh words that she hid behind the dining room’s entrance and carefully observed the situation inside the living room.

She always thought the old woman was kind and warm. It wasn’t until that moment she saw what Mavis was capable of.

Even the crafty Lucille was taken care of in seconds when the old woman unleashed her sharp tongue.

 

However, Lucille wasn’t the type to go down easily.

She might look weak, but she would never stop fighting for an opportunity to stand up for herself. “I know I don’t deserve to be with Zack based on my status, but we’re truly in love with each other! It was something I tried to prevent from happening before, but no one can control an emotional affair with logic. I admit, I was wrong, but I’ll never regret loving Zack!”

 

Her tears poured out of her eyes even harder, so much so that almost everyone would’ve pitied her. It was a shame that her opponent was Mavis, who had lived for far longer than her.

The old woman had seen all kinds of woman in her long life. While she wasn’t a scholar, she certainly picked up the ability to read people by observing them over the years.

It was something that no beautiful young woman could compare to her.

Intending to get her sympathy with some tears would never work.
