Chapter 1169

“Mom, how’d you know those two wore each other out last night?” Angelina asked with curiosity.

Being a woman of the world herself and a mother of a grown son, she could read between the lines of

Beatrice’s insinuation, that the young lovebirds was reveling in passion the night before.

“Of course I know,” Beatrice replied, her smile was widening, and there was a twinkle of knowing

mischief in her eyes. “I personally prepared the soup they had. And I even delivered them milk later.”

Angelina was astonished.

–

Without further question, she knew there was something up with the milk – they were likely the kind

that made the young ones restless and unable to keep their hands off each . other.

Seeing Angelina’s gobsmacked expression, Beatrice simply chuckled and returned to her breakfast

without another word. I

After they finished eating, Remington reached out his hand to Beatrice, suggesting, “Let’s take a stroll

in the garden to work off some of that breakfast.”

Beatrice placed her hand in his, and together, supporting one another, they left the dining room for a

walk in the garden.

Left alone at the table, Angelina felt a cloud of gloom overshadow her mood instead of joy.

She was just poking at her food when her phone buzzed – it was a call from Georgia Reed’s mother,

Juliet.

Angelina hurriedly answered.

After a bit of small talk, Juliet got straight to the point, “My husband says that if Alaric marries Georgia,

the Reeds will back him all the way. We’ll help him rise in the Falconers, and eventually, he’ll be at the

helm. Look at Jeremiah Falconer now – he’s at his peak and having so many shareholders in his

pocket. If Alaric doesn’t step up soon, he’ll miss his chance.”

Angelina’s heart sank. She was already worried, and Juliet’s words only added to her anxiety.

Jeremiah, Alaric’s cousin, was indeed way more promising than Alaric, and Remington seemed

inclined to pass the CEO baton to him.

Despite appearing hands-off, the old man still held the ultimate decision-making power. He cared only

for who could keep the company reins tight and profitable.

With Jeremiah about to tie the knot with a Sutther heiress and gain Suttners’ backing, he was set to be

the victor.

Then Alaric would always be one step behind and never able to turn the tables.

If they didn’t seize the current opportunity, Alaric’s future would be even bleaker.

“Juliet, don’t you worry. Alaric is absolutely set on marrying Georgia. She’s such a catch- beautiful and

sweet. It’s Alaric’s good fortune to have her,” Angelina assured Georgia’s

mother with a smile.

“Well then, let’s set a date for their engagement ceremony and get the wedding plans rolling to bolster

Alaric’s position sooner rather than later,” Juliet pressed, her eagerness fueled by her lovely daughter’s

affection for Alaric.

“I’ll talk to Alaric and get back to you ASAP. You have my word,” Angelina promised.

After some more pleasantries, they ended the call.

Fresh from her shower, Hertha descended the stairs, only to find Angelina sitting solo at the dining

table. Despite the slight awkwardness, she greeted her warmly, “Good morning.”

Angelina’s lips curled into a chilling smile, and she gestured for her to sit, “Please, have breakfast.

Eloise, bring out Ms. Kensington’s breakfast from the kitchen.”

Hertha seated herself across from Angelina, her mind replaying the events with Alaric from the

previous night. She was ready to tell the Falconers that what she and Alaric had was real.

Yesterday’s pretense had unexpectedly turned into today’s truth. She decided to embrace the mistake,

especially since Alaric had confessed his feelings weren’t entirely feigned.

Hertha was not a coward; she was determined to fight for what she wanted.

As Eloise set the breakfast before Hertha, earning a thankful nod, Hertha politely began, “About Alaric

and I…”

“Alaric’s had his share of women; you’re not the first he’s brought home,” Angelina interjected before

Hertha could finish, her voice laced with a chilling mirth.

Hertha felt a sting in her heart as her smile froze in place.
