Chapter 289 The Strange Siblings

Isolde only heard about the incident after returning from the manor.

She hadn’t expected Margaret to play such a trick at this critical moment. Moreover, what was the point of merely humiliating her?

Esme, however, saw through the scheme. “It may seem pointless, but the fact that Margaret brought Lillian, Pablo’s aunt, along to do this speaks volumes. As the lady of the Valen household, Margaret holds significant influence within the family. “With Lillian siding with her to target you, it’s clear that Margaret dislikes you, and the other women in the family will likely follow suit and exclude you.

Isolde hadn’t considered this. Like Oliver, she didn’t care much about how outsiders viewed her.

“You may not care, but she does. She’s spent years building her status within the family. You’re entering the family as a princess, no longer the abandoned orphan from the Langley estate. If she doesn’t assert her dominance over you now, how can she maintain her position?”

Isolde, however, felt there might be more to it. The missing items–the goose, lotus seeds, lily bulbs, and betrothal cakes–suggested a more malicious intent.

Regardless, since she wasn’t the one suffering the consequences, Isolde decided not to dwell on it. The deep- seated animosity between them made this incident seem trivial in comparison.

She didn’t want her wedding to be ruined or her mood spoiled, so she chose to let the matter rest.

However, while Isolde had no intention of pursuing the issue, William showed up, accompanied by his sister, Agnes.

Isolde didn’t know how Margaret had been punished, but seeing the siblings arrive at the Langley residence with such ferocity, she could guess that Margaret had suffered greatly.

William glared at her and said, “You drove my mother to attempt suicide. Are you happy now?”

Isolde shook her head, “Impossible.”

Margaret would never attempt suicide. She wasn’t the type to harm herself over minor setbacks. Only someone weak, like Nicole, would do such a thing.

Margaret wouldn’t.

“You don’t believe me? Should I take you to see for yourself? To see how vicious you are?” William’s face was filled with rage, a stark contrast to his usual aloof and indifferent demeanor.

Agnes, on the other hand, stood quietly by, her expression cold and unmoved.

“Did she die?” Isolde asked.
