The people present felt that Margaret’s words were not entirely credible.

However, since they were part of the Valen family, they naturally sided with the family, primarily to avoid escalating the situation. If this matter were to blow up, it would tarnish the reputation of the entire Valen clan.

Therefore, Pablo’s aunt spoke up, “Mrs. Sharp, today’s matter isn’t so much about who’s right or wrong. What’s important is that the marriage between our two families must continue. Why don’t both sides take step back? The Valen family can make up for what was lacking in the betrothal gifts, and the Langley family should consider Isolde’s situation. Let’s turn a big issue into a small one. Wouldn’t that be for the best?”

After speaking to Natasha, she turned to Margaret, Today, you were the one who made the first mistake. You should sincerely apologize to Mrs. Sharp and say you’re sorry. Before it gets dark, send over the missing items so that both families can reconcile.”

Mrs. Marquis of Eldermere naturally could not be changed again. She had changed time and time again. and her credibility was completely gone.

Margaret could no longer change her stance. If she kept flip–flopping, she would lose all credibility. So she firmly stated. “Since Mrs. Sharp wants an explanation, then let’s have one. After all, today Lillian and I suffered great humiliation at the Langley residence, hearing many harsh and unpleasant words. If we are still wronged in the end, then so be it.”

Natasha coldly glanced at her, “What is your surname? Which family do you belong to?”

Caroline snorted. “I am the wife of Harper from the Ministry of Personnel. It’s normal that you don’t recognize me, as you haven’t been in Argentum for a long time.”

Natasha turned to Patricia. Take note. We’ll deal with this sharp–tongued woman later.”

Caroline was taken aback, then angrily retorted, “Who are you calling sharp–tongued? I’ve been respectful because you’re elderly, but given what you’ve done today if it were up to me, I would have-”

Natasha suddenly cut her off fiercely. “If it were up to me, based on what you just said, I would have torn your mouth apart!”

Caroline was startled. Meeting Natasha’s cold, menacing gaze, she swallowed her words and shrank back into her chair, not daring to speak further.
