Chapter 74

Isadora couldn't help but find it both hilarious and absurd.

"Mrs. Wainwright, forgive me, but if my memory serves, didn't Magnus's father, Easton Wainwright, have an affair with a famous actress back in the day? And wasn't it you who unleashed a swarm of tabloids, painting her as a homewrecker and ruining her reputation in show business?"

"I seem to recall that actress was pregnant at the time, too. You even hired people

to make sure she lost the baby. For someone who's the matriarch of the Wainwright family, you hardly played the helpless victim."

"Isadora, you—you spiteful little bitch! How dare you spread such lies! I swear, I'll make sure my son never wants anything to do with you. You'll regret this, just you wait!"

Isadora just smiled. "Perfect. Because honestly, being the Wainwright family's daughter-in-law sounds exhausting, and I don't think I'm up to the challenge."
