But Willow put on an exaggerated look of grievance, is the genuinely playing the victim, or actually finningt

‘She has never behaved like this before”

Michael said gently, “Mother, please don’t be upset. I’m not siding with Athena, I just wanted to remind you that this matter kas attention, and we should keep a low profile”

Michael knew Kelsey all too well–whenever something brought honor to the family, she couldn’t wait to announce in to the whole city

But was this really the right time for such a public display?

Worried she might make a misstop, Michael folt compelled to speak up and war her

He had always respected Kelsey and never dared to defy her wishes. Even so, what he said today already felt like himate disrespect

Sure enough, Kelsey’s eyes widened, her pupils trembling in disbelief. “You… you’re lecturing me?

Before Michael could even utter a word, Kelsey, consumed by fury, burst into tears. ||

Her face flushed with anger and tears, Kelsey snapped, “I know you and Athena were childhood sweethearts, but you’re married to Willow now! Your Inyalty should be with your wife. Even if she was at fault, you should stift defend her let alone when she’s done nothing wrong”

Kelsey simply couldn’t comprehend what it was about Athena that had Michael so completely under her spell.

Kelsey had always known about Michael’s past actions, but considering he and Athena had grown up side by side, expecting him to truly let her go was simply asking too much.

But he was already married, yet he was still dancing attendance on Athenal

‘How am I supposed to put up with this? Kelsey tumed inwardly.

‘Besides, he hasn’t even slept with Willow yet!

“When will ever get to hold my grandchild?”

Michael’s brows knitted tightly as Kelsey’s words went further out of line.

He wanted to defend himself, but seeing her hysterical sobbing just made him annoyed.

Michael shot to his feet and strode out.

Seeing this, Willow anxiously called after him, “Michael, where are you going?”

Michael didn’t even look back as he stormed out.

Kelsey slammed her hand down hard on the table, fuming. “Now that he’s grown too big for his boots, he won’t even his own mother

With red–rimmed eyes, Willow sniffled and said, “It’s all my fault. I’m just so useless. I couldn’t keep Michael’s heart. Please don’t be upset Kefity. There’s really nothing between Michael and Athena, trust them both.”

Hearing this, Kelsey shot Willow a look of utter frustration. “How can you be so naive trust my son’s character, but can you honestly say the same for

Athena?”

Defiantly ignoring Michael’s advice, Kelsey decided to host a small party, as the Osbome family had been flooded with visitors these days

After all, the Osborne family was at the height of their influence, and everyone was eager to curry favor with them

Willow also attended, dressed in her most splendid attire, just Kelsey had requested.

In just a few days, the Osborne family’s storerooms were overflowing with gits from all directions.

The Queen scoffed inwardly, ‘A mere face covering causing such an uproar? It’s not some miraculous panaces!

Though it wasn’t a grand banquet, this move still managed to draw attention from all quarters.

The Queen immediately summoned both Kelsey and Willow to the palace.

Kelsey beamed at Willow and said, “As a newlywed, you should have gone to the palace to pay your respects to the Queen, but things have been so busy lately that I haven’t had you go. Now that the Queen has summoned us both to the palace, this is truly a tremendous honor.”

Kelsey was radiant with pride. The Osborne family had recently been in the eye of the storm, facing widespread cribs vindicated–walking with her head held high, her back straighter than ever.
