Revenge is best served cold

Chapter 751

"Because of Ms. Leticia! Mr. Gibbs only acknowledges Ms. Leticia as his daughter. Rumor has it that Mr. Gibbs's out-of-fashion daughter was born to Mollie. Mr. Gibbs loves his wife dearly, so he's very good to Ms. Leticia."

"No, you're mistaken," interrupted a nearby maid. "That's what the Gibbs family tells everyone, but in reality, Ms. Leticia isn't Mollie's daughter at all. She was actually born to one of Mr. Gibbs's mistresses."

Hearing this, Sophie frowned slightly and asked, "Excuse me for interrupting, but how do you know Leticia isn't Mollie's daughter?"

"I overheard it once when Mr. Odie and Ms. Leticia were arguing. Mr. Odie said... Ms. Leticia was nothing but the lowly-born daughter of a mistress, and if it wasn't for him, Ms. Leticia would still be a shameful secret," the maid continued. "This isn't exactly a secret in high society. Who doesn't know about Mr. Gibbs's affairs? Publicly, Mr. Gibbs is a kindly philanthropist, but privately, he's a wolf in sheep's clothing!"

No sooner had the maid finished speaking than Polly's voice came from behind, "What are you gossiping about with Ms. Sophie?"

Seeing Polly return, the maids all lowered their heads, too afraid to speak.

It was clear that Polly was the Minton family's housekeeper, with the maids essentially at her command.
