Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 166 The Dessert

As Linda wasn’t a cultured lady in the first place, she couldn’t compare herself to Julia, who came from an illustrious family.

The verbal sparring between the two ladies didn’t come as a surprise to Felicia too.

She then turned her attention to Julia and said, “Since you’re aware of your difference in status, you should be more forgiving of others.”

Even though she sounded as if she was standing up for Linda, Felicia was clearly taking Julia’s side.

As a woman herself, she empathized with the humiliation Julia had suffered all these years.

Linda’s face lost all color in her rage. Felicia had never shown her any respect and would always favor Julia over her.

As tears of aggrievement welled up in her eyes, she informed Charlie, “I’m not feeling well. Please send me home.”

She couldn’t care less about the words of those who didn’t respect her.

All she needed to do was ensure that Charlie’s heart was hers.

While speaking, she leaned against Charlie’s shoulder and pretended to swoon.

However, Felicia responded with a look of disdain before getting up to leave.

As for Charlie, he pushed her aside with an awkward expression. “If you’re not feeling well, I’ll get the driver to send you home.”

“Aren’t you coming with me?” Linda wondered if she had misheard.

All this while, Charlie would return to Jadeborough with me on the second day. Is he planning to this time?
