Chadwick carefully set his wine glass on the table. “Mom, could you please refrain from making such comments on
a day like today? Let’s approach this gently if you have reservations about Esther becoming your daughter-in-law.”
Selene’s sharp gaze met Chadwick’s, and eventually, she relented. “I heard you recently donated your liver, which
is commendable. Starting today, you’re welcome at the Pendletons. Don’t worry. I’ll guide you as if you were my
own daughter.”
Observing Selene’s change in tone, Liora respectfully inquired, “Selene, Mandy is also getting married. How about
teaching both Esther and Mandy together?”
Selene replied mockingly, “What can I teach her? How to deal with her husband’s mistress?”
Liora managed a forced smile.
Back when Mandy was known as Liliane, she frequently taunted Esther as the illegitimate love child. Now,

“Mother, if I had a choice—”
Liora held Mandy’s hand, speaking in a hushed voice. “Selene, Mandy calls you ‘mother’. You can teach her too. I
haven’t achieved much in my life, and Mandy is my only daughter. I hope she can live the rest of her life happily.”
What Liora truly wished for was Mandy to marry outside the Pendletons. With the Pendletons’ support, Bradley must
consider their influence in all his actions.
Selene glanced at Mandy. Seeing that Mandy hadn’t caused any trouble in front of her all these years and was now
getting married, she finally agreed. “I’ll also teach her and show her that there are many paths for a woman in
life.”
Mandy’s hand throbbed from Liora’s pinching. She softly told Selene, “Thank you, Mother.”
Who in the world wanted to learn how to be someone’s wife?
Anyone wishing to emulate Selene, the lawful wife who endured mistreatment, was welcome to do so.
Mandy would endure significant sacrifices to bring down anyone who dared to upset her!
With Liora’s interruption, Selene’s gaze softened. She observed Esther, who appeared like a wronged, submissive
woman, and thought about how unsophisticated she was—just as expected of someone without a mother to guide
her!
If Esther didn’t have the support of the Quills, Selene would never have willingly allowed her precious son to marry
such a “second-hand” woman.
Upon hearing Selene’s thoughts, Sadie felt an intense urge to express her anger. The Quills restrained her with their
glances, but she was seething. She felt like she might have a heart attack if she stayed any longer. Halfway through
the meal, she excused herself and left.
Esther hung her head low as she sat next to Chadwick.

frustration to avoid lashing out then and there.

“I apologize, please excuse me.” Esther set her napkin down and hurriedly left, despite the skeptical gazes she
received.
She entered the restroom and gazed at herself in the mirror, feeling as if a dark cloud loomed over her.
After splashing some water on her face and applying lipstick from her bag, she told herself to endure a little longer.
When the Pendletons eventually fell apart, she would gain her freedom.
As she was about to leave, Bradley, who had seemingly appeared out of nowhere, covered her mouth and pulled
her into one of the restroom stalls.
He forced Esther to sit on the toilet, looking down at her with a sense of superiority. An inexplicable urge for
violence surged within him.
“Have you lost your mind?!”
