Chapter 192

Someone like her? What does the mean by that?

Rhonda's choice of words annoyed Caridee.

“She's my future cousin-in-law. Why can't I mingle with her? Are you having doubts about my granddad and Edmund's tastes? Rhonda, I don't care what kind of bad blood you have with Bailey, but you're not allowed to disrespect her. She's my guest,” she warned.

Her threatening words made Rhonda tremble slightly.

She had been too occupied with Cadence's matters and taking care of Maxton to the point where she had been distant from Caridee.

I can't believe that cunning woman, Bailey, managed to fill my spot during those days and pollute that stubborn princess' mind. Caridee's a useful tool in the Luther family. I can't possibly let her get close to Bailey just like that. No. I've got to come up with a way to ruin their relationship. I can't let Caridee switch sides and support Bailey.

“Caridee, that's not what I meant. I'm sorry, Bailey. I spoke too carelessly just now. Anyway, where are you girls going?”

Sensing Bailey's impatience, Caridee snapped, not wanting to waste any more time arguing with Rhonda, “I've got some design-related questions for Bailey. Carry on with your work. We'll head upstairs now.”

With that, she pulled Bailey's hand and ran up the stairs.

When both of them passed Rhonda by, the latter put out her leg silently to trip Bailey.

Hmph. I'll make you trip to your death. Even if you don't die, I'm sure you'll be severely injured. Besides, you'll be utterly humiliated even if none of that happens.

“Ah!”

A piercing scream resonated along the stairs, attracting the attention of many housemaids.
