Chapter 442

Willow was devastated.

How could he say something like that to me? Am I that unworthy?

“What are you trying to say? How am I not qualified? I work hard, have good results, know how to draw, and even have a pretty face!’’

Felix was speechless.

“In your eyes, is Sophie the only one who's fit to be in high society? Can the Lombard family really accept her past?”

If I don't qualify, what does Sophie have that makes her different?

“Since you insist on bringing up the past, do you really think Mr. Tristan isn't aware of what you've done?”

Willow fell silent.

The matter happened so long ago. How can he have any evidence?

“Let me tell you, all of us are well aware of what kind of person Sophie is. Your malicious words are not welcome here. If you don't keep this in mind, we won't be so forgiving next time!”

Before leaving, Felix ordered his men, “Send her back to the Tanner residence!”

Upon Willow's return, she changed into a different outfit, but her face remained just as sullen.

The look on her face subsequently gave Charmaine a fright.

“Willa, aren't you supposed to be on a trip with your friends? What's with that look on your face? Tell me, did something happen? Say something, Willa! Why are you keeping mum? The way you're behaving is scaring me!”

Charmaine was on the brink of tears.

She was fine before the trip. Did something go wrong?

“Mom, have I been deluding myself all this while? Was I never cut out for high society to start with?”

“What makes you say that? Are you arguing with Clayton, or did he bully you?” If Clayton was the reason, there was little she could do.
