As Fay listened, she grew more and more frustrated, blurting out, "Weren't you
just settling, too? Even as an outsider, | could tell Mr. Rupert doesn't look at Sylvia like he does everyone else.
There's no way you didn't notice. You still married Mr. Rupert, so why is it suddenly such a big deal if | do the
same?"
"I mean, I'm from the skind of background as the Sanfords. Our families have known each other for years;
we know everything about each other. What does Sylvia have that | don't?"
At that, Reese's breath caught in her throat and her face went pale as a sheet.
Kay, however, didn't stop Fay. She just sipped her Earl Grey calmly, unfazed. That little brat really thought she
could throw her weight around here.
All these years, and she still hadn't learned anything.
Maybe it was good for Fay to give her a reality check. These days, if you don't fight for what you want, you'll end
up with nothing. Did Reese really think good things would just fall into her lap?
Honestly, if Sylvia weren't at least a little bit principled, she could've had Rupert eating out of her hand. Even if
she agreed to just be his mistress, she'd be better off than Reese.
Seeing Reese's color turn worse by the second, Kay finally put down her teacup and hurried over, rubbing
Reese's back in an attempt to calm her down.
Kay spoke gently but firmly. "Reese, | owe you an apology. It waswho called Naomi."
"I'll admit, | was acting out of selfishness, but Fay isn't wrong."
"There's clearly something going on between Sylvia and Mr. Rupert. If she really wanted to stay away from him,
she could've just married sregular guy and called it a day. Why did she have to go for your brother?"
"With the way things are, you'll be running into her constantly. What if she and Mr. Rupert start up again? Where
will that leave you and your brother?"
"You and Lester are like my own kids. | raised you both; what mother doesn't want her children to end up happy
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand well-matched? If your mom was still here, she'd be doing exactly the same."
She'd apologized and poured her heart out.
Reese, still grateful for everything Kay had done for her growing up, finally softened. "Aunt Kay, | just... | don't
want things to turn out like this."
"Don't worry. I'll help you," Kay said, forcing a smile and shooting Fay a knowing look.
Fay quickly grabbed Reese's hand "Reese, I'm sorry, | shouldn't have
said that, but you can't just let
walk all over you.

Reese pulled her hand back, pressing her aching head. "Letthink about it."
"But-" Fay started, unhappy with that answer.
"Enough, Fay. Reese needs to rest. Let's go," Kay said, cutting her off and
dragging her toward the door.
Reese watched them leave, lips pressed tight, saying nothing.
Once outside, Fay yanked her hand out of Kay's grasp, annoyed. "Ms. Winslet, |
was so close to convincing Reese. Why'd you stop me?"
Kay just chuckled, unconcerned. "Did she actually say no?"

with malice.
