Chapter 116

It was a provocation, but Elspeth couldn’t care less about it.

“What brings you here? You have nothing to do with the Jonesons,” Alaina continued, holding onto the certainty that Elspeth was here to butter the Jonesons up.

“Oh? Why are you here then?”

Upon hearing the question that she had been waiting for, Alaina raised her head proudly. “We’re relatives. My mother is old Mr. Joneson’s niece and that makes Lola and I cousins. Do I have to explain more about the reason for my visit?”

Alaina heard that the eldest son of the Joneson Family was on a vacation with his family in Damoria, but his daughter fell into Namean River which resulted in her hospitalization. When Alaina received the news, she put off her meeting and made a dash for the hospital.

Her mother once told her that riding the Jonesons’ coattail would be a great boon to them. The Joneson Family was one of the largest influential families in Konig, let alone in Damoria.

As long as she could get in Lola’s good books, it would be a breeze to request something whenever she required help in the future.

Elspeth chuckled upon realization. Just cousins? Is that something to be proud of?

She countered coldly, “Save that for yourself. Someone might mistake you as old Mr. Joneson’s granddaughter.”

Noticing her displeasure, the man frowned. “Alaina, she’s Lola’s savior. It’s not like what you think it is.”

Alaina was stunned. “You mean the woman who saved Lola was Elspeth?”

“Yeah. Who else could it be? You? A mere distant cousin?” Having said that, Elspeth figured that it was unbecoming of her to mock Alaina in front of others, so she decided to leave.
