Chapter 7
Thalia took a seat in the armchair opposite Caroline, meeting her gaze with quiet composure. “I never wanted to marry into the Ashcroft family.”
Caroline didn’t believe it for a second.
She studied Thalia carefully.
So this was the girl her son had been dating for three years.
Pretty enough, she had to admit, and carried herself well. Despite her middle–class background, she didn’t have that obvious social–climbing desperation Caroline was used to seeing.
Caroline had deliberately thrown that barb earlier, hoping to see her squirm. But the girl hadn’t flinched, maintaining her poise and speaking with surprising confidence.

“How dare you!” Caroline’s perfectly controlled breathing hitched. “Such insolence! Drake said you were sweet and accommodating. Clearly, he was mistaken.”
Thalia calmly sipped her tea.
“And no manners,” Caroline sneered. “Not even offering tea to your elder.”
