Chapter 1544

Julie lowered her head.

It seemed like everything Madam Stockton said had hit the mark. She seemed deeply ashamed of her actions.

What Madam Stockton could not see was the evil scowl on Julie’s lips. Despite how things had turned out, she was relieved.

She turned to Madam Stockton and said, “I’m very sorry.”

“It’s alright, you’re only trying to look out for yourself. You shouldn’t have tried to use me. Don’t forget that we’re on the same side. It upsets me to think that you’d try to weaponize me against Sherry.”

Julie was still very remorseful. “I’m very sorry. Even though I’m not a Stockton, I have lived with the family for long enough that I consider myself as part of the family. I see you as my mother and I see Queenie as my sister as well, which is why ever since Sherry arrived, I’ve noticed that Queenie hasn’t been spending as much time with me. I got paranoid and became worried that you’d also…”

She got choked up at this time and seemed on the verge of crying.

It pained Madam Stockton to see her like this. She quickly comforted her, “It’s alright, Julie. I understand, I truly understand how you’re feeling. Queenie is a child and doesn’t know better at times, but I’m nothing like that. I’m on your side.”

Julie’s eyes were bulging with red as she sobbed and apologized, “I made a mistake, please forgive me. I won’t ever do it again.”

“I’m happy you apologized, I won’t hold it against you.” Although Madam Stockton was rather upset when she realized Julie’s ploys, she decided it was not right to hold it against her. Julie had been widowed for so many years with the family and had displayed nothing but loyalty, so she deserved to be forgiven.

She observed how Julie still seemed devastated and quickly told her, “Go on, go back to your room and get some rest. Stop worrying about it, remember everything that I’ve told you.”

“Alright, I’m going,” Julie answered obediently, then she walked toward her room.
