Chapter 26
In the Cosgrove mansion, there was a peaceful atmosphere until Mason walked in, a dark expression on his face.
Lilac eyes lit up looking back to see if she’d see ’her’ behind him but she saw no one.
Then she blinked, forcing tears to fall from her eyes. "Father, what about Sister Amelia? Isn’t she coming back? My days are becoming quite boring without her."
Mason gritted his teeth. "That wench refused to come back."
After causing her to be unable to lodge in any hotel or rent any apartment in the city, he had expected her to come running back, but he hadn’t even caught a sight of her. He was a bit worried that it might get to Grandfather Cosgrove’s ears, as the rumors had already spread around the city. Even if Grandfather Cosgrove hadn’t heard about it yet, it was only a matter of time before he did, and Mason couldn’t let that happen.
Eve, who was at the side, clenched her teeth. What was this stupid daughter of hers doing? They were supposed to ensure Amelia stayed out forever, not try to bring her back in!
Eve took Lilac by the arm and forced a smile. "Lilac, the clothes we ordered have arrived. How about we go try them on?" she said, dragging Lilac upstairs, giving no room for disagreement.
Once they entered Lilac’s room, Eve shut the door and shot a glare at her daughter.
"What the hell do you think you’re doing?"
