Chapter 415

Before Margot could reach Selena, Bill stepped in, blocking her path with a firm hand.

Margot's face was a picture of fury, and she practically shouted, "Are you blind? Do you even know who I am? How dare you, a nobody, try to stop me! You think you're all that?"

Bill's expression barely changed; he simply stood his ground, doing his job by keeping her at bay.

Margot's anger only intensified. Bill was Everett's right-hand man, and now he was playing bodyguard for Selena? They couldn't even go to a mall without a nanny and muscle in tow. All this just to flaunt her status as Mrs. Bennett? Sickening.

Ava had heard about Margot, but seeing her in person was something else. Sure, she was pretty enough to play the mistress role, all sharp words and no class. That artsy image on TV? All smoke and mirrors!

Ava had long despised Margot and was quick to fire back, hands on hips, "Nobody's blind here. We all see you're just a shameless homewrecker, strutting around like you own the place. Back in the day, someone like you would've been tossed in a pigsty!" "You... you're just a nanny! Who said you could speak?"

If it weren't for Bill blocking her, Margot might've gone for Ava right then.

Ava laughed, "Oh please, if a mistress like you can speak, I sure can too. I'm old enough to be your mother. Since your parents didn't raise you right, let me give it a shot!"
