506

After dinner, Martha was reluctant to let Yvette leave. She pleaded with Yvette to stay the night at Quinn Manor. "Yvie, you haven't visited me in so long. Stay the night, won't you?"

Seeing the hopeful look on Martha's face, Yvette couldn't bring herself to refuse. She nodded with a smile. "Okay."

The moment Yvette agreed, Martha lit up with joy. "Wonderful! I'll have them prepare a guest room right away."

Standing nearby, Victoria watched Martha beam with happiness, her smile impossible to hide. Victoria could only lower her gaze.

Martha always preferred peace. She was never one for overnight guests at the manor. But now, she insisted that Yvette stay over. It was a privilege that Victoria never had.

"I'll stay tonight to accompany you too, Grandma," Wilson said seriously.

Martha saw through Wilson's intentions and teased with a grin, "Are you staying for me or Yvie? You never stay over at Quinn Manor, but today you're suddenly so eager! Worried I might steal your precious fiancée away? Look at you, keeping such a close watch on her!" Wilson remained unfazed by Martha's teases. He held Yvette's hand, his fingers intertwining

with hers.

"Grandma, I only have one fiancée, so of course I have to keep a close eye on her," he responded with a relaxed smile.

This was especially true since Yvette was so outstanding. There were plenty of men out there hoping for a chance with her.

Seeing the affection between the two, Martha couldn't contain her joy.

Observing their warm interaction, Victoria felt like an outsider. She bit her lip before saying, Mrs. Quinn Senior, it's getting late. I'll head back so I don't disturb your rest.

Martha nodded. "Okay. You're so considerate, Victoria. You came all this way to see n appreciate it. However, your body is still weak. You must prioritize your recovery over visiting. Rest is what you need most."

In Jubilife high society, rumors were as common as the changing seasons. In the past, unfounded gossip had strained the Murray family's approval of Wilson and Yvette's engagement. Now that they had finally consented, Martha was determined to stave off any further misunderstandings.

It was wiser to avoid unnecessary speculation before more rumors could take root.

Victoria sensed the polite dismissal woven into Martha's words. Lowering her head to conceal her emotions, she nodded in agreement.

"Thank you for your concern, Mrs. Quinn Senior. I'll focus on my recovery."

"Great!" Martha responded warmly, then turned to instruct the butler. "Please see Victoria

out."

"Yes, Mrs. Quinn Senior," the butler replied.

As Victoria followed the butler out of the manor, her smile faded, and her mood visibly dampened.

"Victoria!"

Just then, Alice hurried over to Victoria and started complaining. "I tried telling them that I'm your good friend but they wouldn't let me in. It's so unfair! You have to scold them for me." Alice had rushed over as soon as she learned Victoria was visiting Martha. If she won Martha's favor, Yvette would no longer be able to act arrogantly in front of her.

To Alice's dismay, the security guards stopped her at the entrance, even after she mentioned her connection to Victoria. This left Alice fuming.

Victoria looked at her in surprise. "Alice, what are you doing here?"

Sensing Victoria's low spirits, Alice quickly put on a caring expression. "I came to pick you up. What happened, Victoria? You look unhappy."

Victoria lowered her head. "I went to visit Mrs. Quinn Senior. Yvette and Wilson were there too. Yvette had Mrs. Quinn Senior's full attention after she came, so I felt like an outsider."

"Yvette did it on purpose! As soon as you went to see Mrs. Quinn Senior, she brought Wilson along. Yvette wants to take everything that belongs to you. You can't let her keep doing this or you'll end up with nothing!
