Pablo stood up and kicked the servant, shouting angrily, “Speak! What really happened today? If you dare: lie

even once more, I'll kill you before Mrs. Sharp even lifts a finger!”

After saying this, he shot a fierce glare at Margaret, who sat with her hands clasped on her knees, her expression

calm but her face pale.

Lillian, still unaware of the gravity of the situation, sternly urged the servant, Just tell the truth! Describe: how

arrogant and overbearing the Langley family was today!”

The servant trembled like a leaf, too terrified to hide anything. He recounted everything that had happened at

the Langley residence, revealing that there had been no demands for additional betrothal money or shops. It was

all a fabrication by Lillian and Margaret to frPatricia.

The young servant remembered everything clearly, even mimicking the conversations vividly. Pablo’s face

darkened as he listened.

Seeing the situation turning against her, Lillian quickly defended herself, “I didn’t know anything about this! It

was Margaret who instructedto do this. She said we needed to put them in their place so that even though

Isolde is a noblewoman, she wouldn't act too arrogantly after marrying into your family.”

Caroline, who had earlier supported Margaret, stood up and excused herself, not wanting to be involved in such

a dirty affair.

Pablo stood up and addressed the relatives present, “I have family matters to attend to. Please leave now, but do

cback on the wedding day for the celebration.”

Everyone knew Pablo was about to explode in anger. They glanced at Margaret, who still maintained her -

dignified posture, the picture of a stern matriarch.

They couldn’t understand how someone of her stature could let such a trivial matter escalate. How could the

betrothal gifts be so lacking in propriety? And to fabricate such a web of lies-it was truly shameful!

Ashley, having enjoyed the , also stood up and left.

After everyone had gone, Natasha stood up, leaning on her cane, and said, “I only cto seek justice. Today is

still the day for delivering the betrothal gifts. Whatever is missing must be sent to the Langley residence without

fail.”

She was a tactful old lady and knew better than to interfere in the Valen family’s internal affairs.

“Mrs. Sharp, the missing betrothal gifts will be delivered in full, Pablo said, bowing. “I apologize for this

mess.

Natasha, having achieved her goal, calmed down. She glanced at Margaret and said, “A foolish wife brings

misfortune to the family. Pablo, | know what kind of person you are. Today's matter isn’t directed at you at her. If

it were anything else, | might have let it slide. “At my age, what is there to fuss over? But Isolde is different. She

is Prunella’s daughter, my precious treasure. | would risk my life to ensure she suffers no injustice. Do you

understand?”

Her

words struck a deep chord in Pablo, filling him with both sorrow and pain. His voice choked with emotion as he

replied, “I understand.

“Let's go,” Natasha said, nodding to Patricia.

Natasha had arrived with an imposing presence and left with the sdignity.

As she walked away, she faintly heard the sound of a slap, accompanied by low, furious growls.

She looked up at the darkening sky, hoping there was still tto prepare the betrothal cakes,

Outside, she softly instructed Patricia, “Take speople and see if any bakery can rush the order for us. We'll

pay triple the price,”

“Yes,” Patricia replied, her heart heavy, Isolde had been bullied and looked down upon since she was a child.

How could anyone still try to harm her now that she was a noblewoman?

Once the doors of the Valen residence closed, everything inside becirrelevant to them.

As soon as Natasha turned away, Pablo slapped Margaret.

Margaret's mind went blank for a moment. Her face felt numb before the pain set in, and her ears rang so loudly

she couldn't hear his furious shouts.

She slowly stood up, her eyes dry but filled with anger and resentment. “It’s all because of Prunella, isn’t it?

You've never forgotten her.”

Pablo’s eyes were filled with disgust. “I once told you that because you served my mother and saw her off. |

would never divorce you. But it seems you are utterly unfit to be the lady of this house. From today onward. you

will have no say in any matters concerning the Valen family.”

“It's her! It's because of her!” Margaret suddenly broke down, sobbing uncontrollably. “All these years, even

though she married a useless man and was killed by him, you still haven't forgotten her. You went to great

lengths to bring her daughter into this family because you couldn't have her. You're unwilling to let go. “Ask

yourself is it Oliver who wants to marry her, or is it you? Since you couldn't marry her mother, you're now fixated

on her, aren't you?”

Pablo’s eyes flashed with rage, and he raised his hand to strike her again. But Margaret pulled out a hairpin and

pressed it against her chest, gritting her teeth. “Go ahead, hit me! If you do, I'll die right here in front of you.

Twenty years of marriage, and it still can’t compare to the moment you first saw her. You married me, but in your

heart, Prunella was always your true wife. You never took a concubine, not for my sake, but out of loyalty to her.

“I see it now. I've been a fool for twenty years, waiting for you, and this is how you treat me? Pablo Valen, you

hypocrite! Hit me! Go ahead, so | can finally give up and die, letting you have your way!

Pablo slowly lowered his hand but then grabbed her throat, pushing her back into the chair. His eyes burned with

fury as he shouted, “Don’t you dare drag Prunella into this! What right do you have to blher? | loved her

before | met you, and | never hid that from you. “After marrying you, | treated you with sincerity-no concubines,

no affairs. | promised to try to forget Prunella and live a good life with you, but you never believed me. Every

t| went to the Langley residence, you thought | was meeting her in secret. Every t| sat quietly reading,

you thought | was missing her. How many lies did you spread about Prunella andto my mother? “Because of

you, my mother harassed Prunella at every banquet. Don’t think | don’t know it was your doing! I've had enough

of your paranoia. If it weren't for the fact that you borechildren and cared for my mother, | would have

divorced you long ago. And now you dare mention Prunella in front of me? Lettell you this-you will never

compare to her. If you want to die, go ahead. | despise a venomous woman like you. Your death would bring

peace to this household, free from your poison.”

With that, Pablo released her neck and walked away coldly, not even glancing back at her.
