My Four Miraculous Treasures

Chapter 279

Frank recounted this story with mounting fury and grief.

Originally, he hadn't cared about Serene's humble origins. His son liked her, that was what mattered.

However, come to think of it... if not through seduction and deceit, how else could a woman have propelled herself so far up the ladder of social standing? She'd defeated the young daughters of noble houses, going all the way to claim a position by the side of no less than Aiden Hughes himself!
