Chapter

However, now that Gilda had acquired wealth and social standing, many people eagerly

wanted to cotton up to her.

This made Emily annoyed. “Aunt Britney, do you know why Sherry was sent to Marianta?”

After getting married, Britney seldom intervened in the affairs of the Harrington family, so she didn’t know what had happened to Sherry.

She just heard from Carol that Sherry went to study in Marianta.

However, even though the Harrington family was in serious trouble, Britney didn’t believe the family would send their kid to such an awful place as Marianta. Britney didn’t know the real reason, so she asked, “Do you know the inside story?”

Emily pointed at Gilda in the crowd. “Because of her, of course.”

“You mean Gilda? What did she do?”

Emily remarked, “Have you forgotten how Carol and Sherry used to bully Gilda? Gilda bade her time, and waited to take revenge on them! Gilda taught Sherry a lesson soon after she got the upper hand. Jensen has said something that would never allow Sherry to return.”

Britney experienced a jolt. “Is Gilda so vindictive?”

Britney used to ridicule and scold Gilda frequently. She would be in serious trouble now if Gilda tried to exact revenge on her.

“Aunt Britney, do you know Carol was also in trouble other than Sherry?”

“What? Carol is her mother–in–law! I can’t believe she is so bold. It’s outrageous.”

Noticing that her instigation began to bear fruit, Emily continued to juice it up, saying, “They have been divorced, so Carol is no longer Gilda’s mother–in–law. That’s why she has no scruples! And you…”

Britney was a little terrified.

She married into an ordinary family. It was nothing compared to the Lynch family, who was

extremely affluent. It would be easy to ruin her if Gilda really came after her.

She grabbed Emily’s arm and asked, “Emily, what should I do now? How about I apologize to her and beg her to spare me…” Britney was ready to go to Gilda, but Emily stopped her.

“It won’t work. She doesn’t take you seriously at all now. If not, why would she refuse to help Tanner when she can easily do it? She simply looks down on you and your family.”

Britney blushed instantly as she felt anger growing inside her. She glared at Gilda not far away fiercely, “Bah, bitch.”

“So, if you go to apologize to her, maybe she will give you a hard time.”

Britney couldn’t come up with any plans now. “What should I do then?”

Emily grinned. “It’s very simple! We’ll make her pay. I have a plan to teach her a lesson.”

Emily then whispered something in Britney’s ear.

Upon hearing Emily’s plan, Britney became gloating. “You are right. I have to take preemptive action. I can’t let bully me.”

After Britney took the bait, Emily exclaimed inwardly, ‘What an idiot!‘

Many guests actively talked with Gilda due to her status, trying to build a connection with the Lynch family.
