The Killer Queen by Noella Briony
Chapter 186
Chapter 186
Yvonne was on the verge of a meltdown, her face hidden behind her hands as tear after tear streamed down her cheeks.
“Malvina, how could you hit me? I swear I didn’t mean it that way. I wasn’t trying to stir up trouble!”
“Yeah, right!” Malvina massaged her wrist before slapping Yvonne once again. “Come on, tell her how she’s supposed to talk to a lady of my standing.”
One of the Gruber family’s servants stepped forward and declared, “Being slapped by Malvina is a privilege, Yvonne. You should be thanking her for even bothering with you.”
Yvonne’s face was ablaze with pain, her gaze turning to Noella, who had remained silent throughout the ordeal.
Noella’s expression was indifferent, and Yvonne suddenly felt like a complete fool in her presence.
“Noella, we’re practically family. Please, ask Malvina to let me off this once,” Yvonne pleaded, her eyes locking onto Noella’s.
Convinced that with so many high–society guests watching, Noella would surely play the magnanimous card to leave a good impression, Noella had to speak up for her.
Noella’s voice was cool and detached. “Have you forgotten what I told you outside the art gallery last time?”
The mere memory of that public humiliation at the gallery had Yvonne’s cheeks throbbing all over again. “Ms. Schnabel, please, ask Malvina to spare me. I’ll never cross you again,
save me.”
Noella was toying with her! It must be that Noella was jealous now that she had become the Gruber family’s darling. It had to be envy!
Noella looked away, her tone unchanging. “Oh, I won’t help.”
Yvonne was dumbstruck.
The country bumpkin dared to reject her? Was she not afraid of being seen as uncouth and heartless by the others?
Noella wasn’t giving Yvonne a second thought. Her little charades were just pathetic attempts to sow discord between her and Malvina, all to gain some advantage.
