Want your daughter to be her daughter-in-law?
Not a chance.
Lucinda could barely contain herself whenever this woman came with the intention of stirring trouble. How would she be able endure more when they become family? She was in no way in support of Lilian and Liam's union.
How could Madam Hitson not understand what her nemesis was implying?
She forced out a laugh, attempting to mask her rising irritation. "Indeed, but genuine admiration never grows old. Or does it, Young Master Liam?"
She directed the question to Liam on the side.
Did Lucinda think she was that persistent? Her daughter has other marriage offers and proposals lining for their family, but her dear Lilian hinted her feelings at the adopted son of the Kingston family.
As a mother, what could she do other than to support her daughter? Even if she didn't quite approve of this adopted young master, Madam Hitson could only swallow her words and be upfront about it.
