"Since we're all family, and Caroline calls you 'Mom,' I can call you that too. It makes us closer, don't you think?"

But this flattery completely backfired.

Harper's expression remained cold, even more irritated than before. "Oh, so it's you. I've heard about you."

Elizabeth thought Harper was starting to accept her, so she smiled even more eagerly. "Yes, yes! If you ever have time, Mom, you should visit the Brooks family. I'd love to host you properly and show my respect.'

"No need!" Harper rejected her outright without a second thought. "I've seen the kind of tricks your family plays."

Elizabeth froze. "Pardon? I... I don't understand..."

"Back when Caroline used to visit the orphanage, she often had bruises all over her body. That was your doing, wasn't it?" Harper's tone was sharp and unyielding. "As her younger sister, you constantly targeted her, bullied her, and tried to crush her. I've heard plenty about the things you did. Listen to me, Élizabeth, stay away from the Ellison residence, and stop trying to get close to David. He's your brother-in-law. Know your place and quit your little schemes. Otherwise, Caroline might be too soft-hearted to do anything to you, but I won't hesitate to step in and take care of you myself. Do you understand?" "..."

"I asked, do you understand?"

Elizabeth didn't dare push her luck. She could only nod. "I understand, mom..."

"What did you just call me?"

Elizabeth swallowed hard and corrected herself. "Madam Harper."

Only then did Harper cast her a disdainful glance before turning away. "Paul."

"I'm here, Madam Harper."

"From now on, do not allow her to enter the Ellison residence. She is also not permitted to approach David or Caroline."

Paul bowed slightly. "Understood, Madam Harper."

Without sparing Elizabeth another look, Harper got into her car and left, as if she wasn't even worth her time.

This time, Elizabeth had suffered a huge loss-one she couldn't do anything about. After all, this is Mr. Ellison's mother!

She wasn't foolish enough to think she could go against Harper and win.

It wasn't until Harper's car disappeared from view that Elizabeth finall lip in frustration.

dropped her fake smile, biting her

Fine. No point letting this little setback ruin her mood. She still had more important things to do.

Forcing herself to stay composed, she adjusted her expression and turned around, her voice syrupy sweet again. "Mr. Ellison-"

But before she could take another step, Caroline was already standing in front of her.

David stood behind Caroline, completely blocked from view.

"You came to the Ellison residence to see how badly I'd end up, didn't you?" Caroline asked. "Well, now you've seen it. Satisfied?"

"I... I came to see Mr. Ellison! What are you even talking about? Sis, why do you always have to pick on me?"

Of course, Elizabeth would never admit it.

Instead, she played the victim. "Caroline, I don't mind if you target me, but Madam Harper didn't like me either. You must have said a lot of bad things about me to her, didn't you?"

"The things you've done over the years speak for themselves. I don't have to say a word-anyone with eyes can see the truth."

Caroline and Harper shared a bond that went beyond mere in-laws.

Caroline had grown up in an orphanage, and because of that, she always wanted to give back. She frequently volunteered, bringing school supplies, clothes, and snacks for the children.

But every time she visited, she was covered in bruises. If it wasn't from Samantha's beatings, then it was from Elizabeth's pinches.

Over time, Harper had noticed. She had started paying attention, asking questions, and showing concern.
