Chapter 317

“Mom, please, calm down,” Glynnis implored, her voice trembling as she cautiously approached the seething Elspeth.

“Mom, seeing you this upset, it’s breaking my heart. Tell me what I can do to help,” Glynnis offered, her voice strained with concern

“Help? Can you kill Myra for me? Elspeth spat bitterly

Glynnis was left speechless.

I thought when Myra ran off with Emeric, she would just be his little secret, a mistress without a title. And then she had that girl, that little wench!”

Glynnis had to suppress a laugh at this. After all, hadn’t Elspeth herself given birth to two daughters?

“But no. Emeric is spoiling her! Throwing her a grand birthday party even getting Haron to design her a dress! Why is she so lucky Why does she get to outshine me?”

Elspeth’s anger had turned her face a deep shade of purple, and she was on the verge of tears. Myra’s success only illuminated Elspeth’s own failures.

“Mom, getting angry here won’t help. We need to find a way to take Myra down a notch, maybe even ruin her birthday party” Glynnis suggested, shaking Elspeth’s arm in a desperate plea.

Elspeth gritted her teeth as she picked up her phone and dialed a number, leaving the room to take the call by the window “Elspeth, it’s been a while since you’ve reached out. How have you been?”

A raspy male voice came over the line, presumably belonging to a middle–aged man.

“Let’s just say I’ve seen better days,” Elspeth choked out, fighting back tears.

“Is this about that woman, Myra?”

“Who else could it be?”

“Elspeth, you did me a favor once, and I’ll never forget it. Tell me what I can do to help.”

Elspeth let out a soft sob, but there was a sinister smile in her eyes.

Haron’s custom–designed evening gown was a crowning jewel in Myra’s birthday celebration. But the party was far from over. The next event was the gift presentation.

Everyone was expecting Emeric to gift Myra with something extravagant, like a piece of property or some precious jewelry. But what he actually gave her was a surprising curveball.

Emeric had set up a charity foundation in Myra’s name, dedicated to helping children with disabilities. And as the cherry on top. Myra herself was appointed as the foundation’s chairwoman.

Evadne beamed with pride. She knew the women of the Ashbourne family weren’t like the other socialites and heiresses. They including Emeric, had never been interested in material wealth.
