Chapter 253

Third Person’s POV

Priscilla believed that if Adelaide showed the slightest disrespect, the royal council would strip her of her status and exile her.

This thought revived Priscilla’s suppressed vanity and desire for control, and a smug look appeared on her face.

Madison sneered, “That’s not certain. How about this: tomorrow, ask her for a box of pink diamonds. If she refuses, you’ll know she’s not truly filial.”

The pink diamonds in the display case had long made Madison envious.

Priscilla, who valued face above all, declared, “Of course she’ll give it! It’s just pink diamonds–I’ll take them from her treasury myself.”
