Chapter 99 Return to Emerald Lake Manor

"Who are you, old woman? I'm here to see Michael. You should be inviting me in and serving me tea properly!"

Feeling a sudden rush of superiority, Sophia added, "You know, I'm gonna be the new mistress of Emerald Lake Manor soon. If you're smart, you'll start sucking up to me now. Maybe I'll even give you a raise later." "Dream on!" Ava rolled her eyes at Sophia.

It was hard to tell if she was influenced by Abigail or if Emily moving out had really gotten to her.

She didn't care anymore and spat at Sophia.

At that moment, Ava had even thought through the consequences.

If Michael wanted to fire her, so be it!

With Emily gone, the house would be dead anyway. Why stick around?

If Sophia really moved in, working here would be a nightmare!

"Who do you think you are! Mr. Smith might like you, but so what? To me, you're just a passing guest. The real mistress of this house is Emily Brown, Mr. Smith's wife! I only take orders from her!"

Sophia had come to Emerald Lake Manor to mock Emily, maybe even run into Michael and annoy Emily enough to make her leave.

But she didn't expect to get chewed out by a servant before even getting through the door!

"How dare you talk to me like that! Do you really think Emily's gonna stay happy for long? She's about to get kicked out of the Smith family. Once she divorces Michael and I move in, I'll make your life hell!" "Who are you gonna make life hell for?" a voice interrupted.
