Chapter 2


    The car Elspeth chose was the first car in the line, which was driven by Callum. Therefore, they were


    the only ones in the car. She did not speak much but looked out the window with mixed emotions


    instead. Her mother passed away when she was young and she had been living in that town with her


    father, Grover Lynwood, for many years. However, two months ago, her father passed away due to


    sickness and his final wish was for her to find a good home. Although she knew that her father and


    Theodore had previously agreed on a marriage between their families but had always refused to ept


    it, this was her father’sst wish. Therefore, she had no choice but to agree to leave for Damoria. Still,


    no words were exchanged throughout the car ride to the city and the car soon stopped before a


    beautiful vi. Subsequently, Elspeth alighted from the vehicle and followed the other five into the vi.


    When they entered, they were met with the scene of an elegant-looking woman sitting on the couch.


    Then, Max began toin, “Mom, we’re back! I’m so tired.” Observing her five sons, Margot Luvon


    chuckled and asked a servant to prepare drinks before looking toward Elspeth at the back. After sizing


    her from head to toe, Margot thought that the young woman was not as ugly and plump as she looked


    in the photo. Instead, she was very beautiful. As such, she sneered and said sarcastically, “You’re


    Elspeth Lynwood, right? You even went through the trouble of having stic surgery just to marry into


    our family. That must’ve been hard for you.” Since Theodore had agreed upon the marriage in the early


    years, the others could not go against his decision despite not fancying Elspeth. “Mrs. Winthrop, I didn’t


    have any stic surgery.” Margot snorted and saw the butler bringing in Elspeth’s luggage, so she


    ordered, “Mr. Graham, bring that luggage here for inspection.” A cold light shed across Elspeth’s


    eyes. “Mrs. Winthrop, that’s my stuff.” “And I know that. That’s why I should inspect it. You came from a


    lowly ce and it’d be bad if you brought anything dirty or dangerous into our home.” Once she


    finished, she hinted at the butler with her eyes. Meanwhile, the five Winthrop men were sitting on the


    couch with zero intentions to help her out. After all, they were not particrly happy about her arrival.


    Just as the butler, Luis Graham, was about to start his inspection, Elspeth grabbed her luggage. With


    an expressionless face, she announced coldly, “No one is to touch my things.” Margot stood up and her


    eyes were tinted with a touch of rage. “Ha. That’s what I thought. If that’s the case, I have no choice butText ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    to see what atrocious things you’ve brought with you today!” After saying that, she hollered for the


    bodyguards. When four to five bodyguards marched in, the others put down their phones and watched


    the scene in anticipation that Elspeth would be flustered and surrender, but she instead remained


    unfazed. Just as the bodyguards were about to snatch her luggage, a deep voice came from the


    doorway. “Stop.” It was Theodore who had just returned. He scurried over and looked at Elspeth with


    concerned eyes, asking, “Elsie, are you alright? I’m so sorry. I had a meeting at thepany and only


    managed to get back now.” “I’m alright, Mr. Winthrop.” Elspeth shook her head. He then turned to


    Margot and questioned, “What were you doing? How could you treat our guest like that when she’s just


    arrived?” “Pfft! What did I do wrong? I only wanted to see if she brought anything inappropriate to our


    home!” Looking at Elspeth with a disdainful gaze, she did not feel like arguing anymore and went


    upstairs. Theodore sighed. “My apologies, Elsie. There must be some sort of misunderstanding. I’ll


    exin everything to her.” Elspeth shook her head to indicate that she did not mind. Honestly, she lost


    track of how many people had discriminated against her over the years. Then, she saw him ordering


    the servants, “Elsie will be living here from now on. Therefore, you are not to be disrespectful to her!”


    Once that was done, he turned to his five sons seated on the couch. “That applies to you punks too.


    You’re not to bully Elsie and you can’t watch her get bullied either.” The five men went silent while


    wondering why their father liked Elspeth so much…
