Chapter 94 Avoid the Confrontation

Just then, Priscilla and the old maid returned.

Before Priscilla could say a word, she caught sight of the cremation urn. Her face turned pale with shock. She muttered to herself, “Has Matilda lost her mind? This is Mdm. Langley’s residence, and she actually put a cremation urn here?”

“Did you deal with those two servants?” Prudence demanded angrily as soon as she saw them.

Before Priscilla could answer, the old maid stepped forward and said indignantly, “How could we? Miss Isolde Langley claimed those two maids were sent by Mr. Becker, and they seem to have some fighting skills.”Miss Isolde Langley didn’t allow us to take them away. She even insulted Ms. Sullivan, calling her a shameless freeloader and implied that you are living off her mother’s money!”

The maid exaggerated Isolde’s exact words, adding fuel to the fire.

Prudence’s eyes rolled back in fury, nearly fainting on the spot.

Priscilla and Nicole rushed to support her, with Nicole rubbing her chest to soothe her. “Grandmother, please don’t be angry. Isolde just doesn’t know any better.”

“She doesn’t know any better?” Prudence took a deep breath and said coldly, “Then I’ll make sure she learns.”

Matilda and Michelle exchanged a glance, secretly pleased. Prudence was never one to go easy, and they were sure Isolde was in for a rough time.

Prudence glanced at Matilda and ordered, “Why are you just standing there? Throw that urn out!”

Matilda was displeased as such a task should be done by a servant, not her.

Besides, Geoffrey treasured Prunella’s urn and always handled it with care. He wouldn’t even let others touch it. If she threw it out, she would surely be kicked out of the household.

Just then, Priscilla proposed, “Mother, perhaps we should wait until Geoffrey returns and ask if this was his decision. Isolde wouldn’t dare act this boldly.”

Prudence glanced at her and said, “Fine.”

Both she and Priscilla knew that this could never have been Geoffrey’s decision.
