Chapter 633: Chapter 633: When the time comes, I won’t be polite!
Lady Octavia was crying and sniffling as she spoke on the phone with Rebecca Kelloway, "Rebecca, you’re right, that woman is so calculating. Madam Heath really likes her, loves her like her own granddaughter. She doesn’t let anyone say anything against her."
"Now that Madam Heath is protecting her, she doesn’t even respect me as her mother-in-law."
"I suppose in time, I won’t have any status in this home. My daughter-in-law will completely disrespect me."
Whatever was said on the other side of the phone made Lady Octavia’s face darker, and her tears flowed more heavily.
"Now they all don’t believe me and think I’m causing a fuss for no reason. Ashton is completely smitten with her, always speaking on her behalf, and never doubting her. It turns out that women from small households are really cunning, their minds full of shrewd schemes, and top-notch strategies. Ashton is good at his work, and it’s difficult to find anyone better than him among his peers, but he’s too inexperienced in romantic matters and has been deceived by that cunning woman."
"How did my outstanding son get fooled by such a woman?"
"Oh, Rebecca, if only you were my daughter-in-law, Lady Octavia would be over the moon." Lady Octavia spoke as she wiped away her tears.
From the phone came a gentle and soft voice, "Lady Octavia, please don’t cry anymore. What would you do if you became sick as a result of your crying? It’s not as if I alone could make this decision. Of course... I really want to be Lady Octavia’s daughter-in-law too, but... Ashton does not think of me that way. What else can I do besides wishing him well?"
"Actually, Joanna must have some strengths, right? Otherwise, Ashton wouldn’t be so fond of her. If Lady Octavia tries to accept her, perhaps she’ll find that she is not as bad as you think."
"I can never accept her!"
Instead of comforting Lady Octavia, Rebecca’s words only infuriated her more. She scoffed coldly, "What strengths could she have? She only bewitches my son with her face. Her background is bad enough, but she also attended that Film and Television Academy. Is she all set to become an actress?"
"If she were to become an actress, wouldn’t it disgrace the Heath family? How could the Heath family’s young lady be an actress?"
"But Lady Octavia..." There was a pause on the other end of the line, as if there was some hidden secret.
"What is it, Rebecca? What do you want to say?"
"I don’t know if I should say this, but Lady Octavia, you’re so against her acting. What if she insists on continuing to work in the entertainment industry? As far as I know, she has acted in a few dramas before, but only as a background character. Now that she has Ashton’s support, he could invest and let her play Female Lead 1 with just one word. I’m afraid... she won’t be able to resist such a temptation."
Lady Octavia’s face darkened, and coldly said, "I absolutely cannot accept that. The entertainment industry is such a dirty place. If she became an actress, who knows how people would laugh at the Heath family. If Ashton indulges her in such behavior, I won’t be polite then!"
"Lady Octavia, please don’t be angry. I’m only guessing. She must think it’s beneath her to be an actress now that she has married Ashton and become the young lady of the Heath family. Moreover, she should know that doing so would disgrace the Heath family and she won’t do something without considering your feelings, right?"
