Chapter 218 Jeanne is Angry

Isabella retracted her gaze and did not speak.

Draxton walked over to the window and glanced down. He then said calmly, “The Langley family comes to pay their new year greetings to my grandparents every year”

Isabella said, “That’s nice of them.”

Draxton held her hand and said, “Let’s go downstairs and take a look.”

The two of them went to the living room. Patriarch Lockwood was not there. Only Madame Emma Lockwood

and Jeanne were there.

The three members of the Langley family were enthusiastically greeting Madame Emma Lockwood and wishing her a happy new year.

“Mrs Lockwood, we brought this local specialty here all the way from Hamilson City. There are also two wild ginsengs.”

Shawn said carefully and he fawned over them.

Cressida smiled quietly. It was a really gentle smile.

She then took out a silk scarf and said, “Madame Lockwood, this is a scarf I embroidered myself. I hope you’ll like it”

Madame Emma Lockwood glanced at her and said, “Oh my. I didn’t know that the young lady of the Langley family knew how to embroider.”

Kim smiled and continued, “Madame Lockwood, the Langley family still has some ancient traditions. Not only does Cressida know how to embroider, but she also knows how to play the piano and chess, draw, and write calligraphy.”

Cressida lowered her head in embarrassment, but the corners of her lips were curled up slightly.

She was from a scholarly family, hence she was a well–bred young lady. She was not someone the Lockwood family’s two daughters–in–law could compare to.

Elodia was even worse. She came from a humble family background and did not receive a good education.

As for Draxton’s wife, she had children out of wedlock. If word got out, people would look down on her.

Cressida wasn’t like any of them. At this thought, she straightened her back proudly.

Madame Emma Lockwood did not take the scarf. She only glanced at it and said gently but slightly distantly, “Thank you, Cressida. That’s nice of you.”
