Chapter 238

The servants of the Fairhaven household all gasped, their hands flying to their mouths in shock!

This woman, Elspeth, riding on the favor of the Abernathy’s chairman, was she trying to cause a scandal within the Fairhaven family?

Simultaneously, all eyes turned towards Edith, including the stunned Mrs. Jareth.

“Edith, is what Elspeth is saying true?”

Edith quickly put on an innocent and harmless expression, her brows furrowed as she defended herself with a coquettish tone, “Mummy, I really didn’t do that! The idea of making fake jewelry to give to Ada to win her over was all Glynnis‘!”

Seeing Edith distort the truth with her lies, Glynnis was furious, glaring at her and shouting, “Edith, stop lying! It was your idea to help me win over Ada and smear Evadne’s reputation by creating a replica of Alea’s jewelry!”

“Evadne? The Ashbourne’s lady? What does she have to do with this?” Mrs. Jareth asked, her eyes wide with surprise.

Edith was at a loss for words, a bead of sweat trickling down her forehead.

This stupid Glynnis, she had actually dragged Evadne into this. She must be determined to make a clean break with her!
