"Caelum, have you spoiled Sandy so much that she's bectotally uncontrollable?" It wasn't until Sophie had left that Bea finally aired her grievances, albeit in a more roundabout way. A young girl was rude to her and actually hit her? That was a lifelong humiliation! "Bea, I've definitely let Sandy get out of hand, and I truly apologize for what happened today," Caelum said soothingly. "Why don't you head back to the guest room and rest? I've already called for a doctor to check on your face." Caelum's gentle words managed to calm Bea's anger, but the memory of Sandy's harsh words still stung. "You are an old friend. I only thought of coming to you, since I don't know many people here. I didn't expect Sandy to misunderstand... What must others think ofnow?" "Don't worry about it. We're just old friends, after all. Nobody here dares to gossip about the Pollard family," Caelum reassured her.

Though her current life wasn't bad, the thought of her unloving husband and rebellious grandson made Bea regret her choices.
"Just old friends?" Bea muttered suddenly, even surprising herself. She quickly turned and went back upstairs, sulking like a young girl.
Watching her retreat, Caelum shook his head. Kingston, standing beside him, remarked, "Sir, this isn't a long- term solution. If Miss Sandy finds out, she'll throw a fit every tshe comes back." "What can I do? It's not right to just kick her out," Caelum sighed.

Bea was no longer the young beauty he once Knew; she was now just an aged woman with a vain heart.
Seeing her now, he felt nothing. To him, Bea was just a stranger he once knew. But it was clear she didn't feel the same.
"By the way, make sure to take good care of that Russell girl. Don't let anyone bully her." "But, sir..." "Her grandfather and I were like brothers, back in Devonport. His granddaughter is like my own..." "Sir, there's a generational gap! Ms. Sophie is about the sage as Miss Sandy." Annoyed, Caefum snapped, "He just married young! That bastard! I'm a
gentleman, I waited to marry the woman Moved. How is that the sIt's not my fault The Pollard family was a mess back them and it was all because I..."
"Sir! Sir!" The butler quicklyintervened, "Calm down!' The content ened, "Calm isfomnovelenglish.net!
From the spiral staircase, Sophie slowed her steps, trying toCO eavesdrop but couldn't catch a single word. The Pollard mansion was just too big; even O eavesdropping didn't work! X
