the feasibility of her plan.“You don’t have to worry about that. Mom has a slight connection with the Coles, so it might not be a problem as long as I have a clear explanation and involve a bit of her connection with the Coles.”Surprised, Arthur smiled. “You’re smart.”How can her small mind think so quickly?“Of course, I’m smart. Do you think every woman in the world is stupid like Emma and has to rely on men to do everything?” Even when agreeing with him and elevating herself, Elspeth didn’t forget to belittle Emma.Emma was mean. Elspeth wouldn’t miss an opportunity to ridicule her.This time, Arthur didn’t show any intentions of standing up for Emma. Instead, he jeered, “It seems like you have quite a huge grudge against Emma.”While hugging a pillow, Elspeth looked at Arthur sternly. “Arthur, what state of mind are you in to ask this question?
