Corin's face darkened significantly.
"You, mouthy bastard! Is this your idea of manners? Conspiring against your sister-in-law, who taught you this? After the ceremony, you better stay indoors. I can't afford to lose face because of you!"
"I can't afford to lose this person!"
Hedda truly cried this time. Since Benno's death, she had been a widow for several years, and everyone had held her in high regard. This was the first and only time she had been publicly humiliated!
Hedda glanced resentfully at Gladys.
It was all because of Gladys! If it weren't for her, if it weren't for this illegitimate child of unknown paternity, how could she be publicly humiliated by Corin!
This little brat, she would deal with her sooner or later!
Wiping her tears, Hedda lowered her head, hiding the madness and unwillingness in her eyes.
"Yes!"
