Chapter 153

Gary hardened his face, gave Margaret a quick look, and snorted in pure scorn.

“Mr. Timothy’s only been gone a few days. And you have forgotten his last words? Mrs. Ferguson will only ever be Jane! And you, a disrespectful and ungrateful woman, think you can be part of the Ferguson family? Not a chance!”

With that, he strode off with the servants in tow, carrying a presence that reminded me of Timothy in his prime.

Margaret gritted her teeth furiously just as Christine emerged, lips curled in a taunt, “Back for more, huh? Did you go home yesterday thinking my scolding was spot-on, wanting another dose?”

“Bitch! You’re nothing but a shrew!” Unable to outmatch Christine, Margaret bit back her anger, “And for the record, I’m not here for you.I came to see my mother!”

“Well, that’s still better than being a lowlife like you. Get lost!” Christine dismissed her with those final words, ignoring Margaret’s contorted face of rage and pulling me inside.
