Chapter 126


    To Madam Vanderbilt, benefits always came first.


    The men would inherit the family business, and the women would marry someone with power and


    status to help the family.


    That was why she would protect Willow— because she had ‘usage’.


    Stephen held his fist.


    “Mom, isn’t Maisie your granddaughter too?” “Maisie?” Madam Vanderbilt’s temper rose.


    “She’s exactly like her mother, always the outsider of the family.


    Why should I rely on her? “Didn’t you marry Marina because of how capable she was? Your ce in


    Bassburgh was sealed because of her, but did she respect me? She was immoral for thinking about


    another man when she was already married to you.


    The apple definitely doesn’t fall far from the tree.” “Enough!” Stephen’s sudden outburst stunned


    everyone.


    Even Madam Vanderbilt looked at him like he was out of his mind.


    Her son had never yelled at her.


    “You have no right to talk about Marina like that.” Stephen stomped upstairs right after he said that.


    Le, who still had her hand to her face, turned pale when she saw Stephen yell at his mother because


    of Marina.


    Stephen had not let go of Marina even years after her passing.


    That was why he wanted to revise his will.


    He was obviously trying to let Maisie inherit Vaenna! No, she wouldn''t let that horrible woman take


    anything from her! “Mom, we need to talk...” Le could only talk to Madam Vanderbilt since she would


    definitely not agree to leave Vaenna to Maisie! When Pearl’s exnation video was posted, a lot of


    netizens sympathized with her.


    From her rude actions to being tricked, and with the statements by the few people involved, all the


    mistakes pointed toward the culprit — Willow.


    Even People’s Daily of Bassburgh made a statement supporting Pearl, indirectly criticizing Willow’s


    actions and saying that she should lose her status as a renowned jewel designer.


    After the news came out, the loss that Vaenna suffered was devastating.


    Even clients who had pre- ordered jewelry from them requested refunds to avoid getting involved.


    Willow’s fame had just started, but she became the most hated person in town before she could enjoy


    it.


    That was going to anger the Vanderbilts.


    “] didn’t expect Mrs.


    Santiago to be able to convince Ms.


    Santiago toe out.


    This seems to be the nail on Willow’s coffin.” Unless Willow could show some proof.


    Maisie leaned back on her chair.


    “Mrs.

    Santiago wants to clear her daughter’s name, and I have evidence of her colluding with Willow.


    She would of course choose to help me.” As for Willow...


    She probably never expected to be framed.


    If Willow was smart, she would ept it and be good until all this blew over.


    Of course, if she chose to go against Pearl and expose her n with her, she would get into the bad


    books of the Santiagos.


    She had no proof.


    Theizens would just be annoyed by her attempt to exin.


    However, Maisie didn’t anticipate Willow’s Twitter being suspended.


    It was obvious that Mrs.


    Santiago was behind it.


    Suddenly, her phone rang.


    It was Le.
