The servants received their orders and started to take action, but just as they began to move, a clear and steady voice rang out:
"Did I agree to her moving in?"
Eleanor Spencer’s joyful smile froze on her face, unable to believe and nervously looking at Mason Nightshade. What did Mason an by this? Did he disagree?
This was clearly not part of Eleanor’s plan. She thought Aurelia might react strongly and object fiercely, but doing so would only backfire and make Mason dislike her. Besides, with his mother’s invitation, she wasn’t afraid of not being able to move in. But now... Mason disagrees?
Could it be that Mason doesn’t want to use her to make this woman loathe him? He had clearly expressed such a thought before. Was she wrong?
As turmoil filled Eleanor’s heart, Sophie Nye voiced the doubts in her mind: "Why disagree? Isabel Bennett moving in can take care of you and help take care of Aurelia. What’s bad about that?"
"At the mont, I’m physically and ntally healthy; I have no intention of keeping a mistress outside. Handling one wife every night is enough, I don’t have the energy to spare for another woman."
If soone else said this, they might be suspected of lacking stamina and aging prematurely. But coming from Mason Nightshade, with his cold and outward-rejecting tone, noble and aloof temperant, it absolutely defies such imagination!
Eleanor’s face imdiately beca an ugly shade of red and purple, each word from Mason slamd into her face, clearly saying she was shaless for seducing a married man. Even if he cheated, she could only be his kept mistress! Moreover, she wasn’t even qualified to be a mistress!
After all, Eleanor Spencer was a movie star adored by many, with countless suitors. There were plenty of wealthy individuals ready to actually keep her; she had never endured such humiliation.
Her eyes turned red imdiately, and tears rolled down her cheeks. "Brother Night, how could you think of this way? I sincerely want to take care of Aurelia. There might be a misunderstanding with what Aunt said. If you really don’t want to co, then I won’t. I’m sorry, Brother Night, it’s all my fault, all of it. I didn’t an to upset you."
Oh dear, look at this pitiful scene with tears coming down, listen to her words. On the surface, she’s admitting fault, but her weak and aggrieved appearance will only earn her more sympathy. Even if she was really at fault, no one would have the heart to bla her.
Aurelia Shaw began to self-reflect: both are actresses, yet why is the portrayal of an innocent girl by others so vivid, and mine such a failure? No wonder Eleanor Spencer beca a film queen in a previous life while she had to abandon her dream halfway and eventually died tragically in a rehab center.
"Isabel, how could it be your fault, my dear child? Why are you so kind and unable to even resist? It’s truly heartbreaking." Sophie Nye lovingly took out a handkerchief to wipe Eleanor’s tears, "Co, we can’t be bothered with this place! Let’s go back to Aunt’s, you can stay as long as you like."
Sophie Nye pulled Eleanor away, and as they reached the door, Eleanor suddenly stopped. She looked at Aurelia, seemingly concerned, and said, "Aurelia, today I saw sothing online. I know that matter wasn’t sothing you wanted. The entertainnt industry is really deep, but you’re not soone who doesn’t respect yourself. However, dealing with unspoken rules can be tricky. You’d better have Brother Night help you."
