Chapitre 427: A mother's help (2)

'So much for a peaceful day,' Alessandra thought. 

"You look surprised, Duchess. Did you not know she was making an appearance in town these days or did you not know what she looked like?

"Viscountess," Alessandra stopped Nadine before more of the nonsense flowing out of her mouth could be said. "The seats were assigned so I must remind you that you have stayed where you do not belong far too long. You should watch what you say about other women before you find yourself in a similar position years later. Karma skips no one."

Nadine rolled her eyes. "Always the fool. Everyone knows Priscilla did not care for you and yet you sit here defending her. Even more comical that you sit with the woman she wanted her son to marry. Your replacement isn't so far away."
