He considered himself a member of Beatrice's family and did not want Katherine to suffer.

So, he had to stay and look after Katherine and their family.

Simon returned not long after the few of them had settled on the sofa.

He was delighted to see Anthony and immediately asked him to accompany him to the study for a chat, leaving Katherine alone in the lion's den.

When Anthony left, Queenie struggled to hold back herself.

She tried not to show her bad attitude and contempt against Katherine, but it was obvious that she was having difficulty.

Meanwhile, Beatrice pretended that she didn't notice it and busied herself silently having breathing exercises.

"Miss Wilson, you didn't get a good tour the last time you came to our house, did you? Shall I show you around?" Queenie asked.

"Miss Johnston seems so enthusiastic about this.I will be impolite if I decline” Katherine said, not knowing Queenie's ulterior motive.

After Katherine said that, she directed her charming eyes to Queenie.It mirrored genuineness.So, Queenie felt guilty for no reason, but when she remembered what happened at the dinner table, she immediately felt less bad.

"Okay, shall we go?" she asked.

Her face was devoid of any emotion.
