Chapter 338

No sooner had Calista’s words fallen than the Brooks family felt a sudden chill descend upon them. Vivienne’s calm aura collapsed like a fallen soldier and an oppressive

darkness cloaked her

Carl Kala, and Ashley felt an involuntary shiver run down their spines.

They turned to look at Judith unable to comprehend why Calista had been appointed as Thaddeus tutor

They had been away from home for the last couple of days and had only returned late last night, so they were ignorant of Thaddeus new academic arrangement.

Upon hearing this, they were taken aback

The tension between Calista and Vivienne was palpable to anyone who saw them

Why would the old lady add fuel to the fire by asking her to tutor Thaddeus?

Vivienne cast a cold glance at Calista, then turned her icy gaze to Judith “Since when have I agreed to let her tutor Thaddeus?

Vivienne turned her piercing gaze toward Calista Her eyes were gleaming like a wolf in the darkness, instilling a fear that made Calista involuntarily shut her mouth

Realizing that Vivienne was genuinely angry Judith hurriedly tried to explain, Vivienne, when I asked the maid to find a tutor, Ms. Pendleton happened to be around. The volunteered to tutor Thaddeus and considering her impressive credentials and her reputation as a medical prodigy, I thought Thaddeus could learn a lot from her do. I fonk the liberty of appointing her”

Before Vivienne could respond. Judith continued, “If you don’t approve of Ms. Pendleton, I will ensure she doesn’t come here tomorrow I apologize for not considering | feelings
