Chapter 453: Chapter 453
Faye Sterling had just left when a servant reported another visitor had arrived.
Mrs. Faulkner’s expression darkened, "Who has come?"
The servant immediately replied, "She...she claims to be Young Master Alaric’s mother."
Upon hearing it was her, Mrs. Faulkner radiated an aura of gloom.
Before she could speak, Susan Langley walked in unannounced.
"Mother, why did you have someone stop me? I’m Gordon’s wife, don’t I have the right to enter the Faulkner Family?"
Mrs. Faulkner shot her a disdainful look.
Indeed, she was a woman from a small town and a humble family, without any manners, barging in without her permission.
"What are you here for?" Mrs. Faulkner’s voice was indifferent, exuding an air of unwelcome.
Susan Langley sneered, "Caleb has been sick recently, I came to take care of him, and to see Alaric as well."
Hearing that she wanted to use this as an excuse to stay, Mrs. Faulkner’s face instantly turned grim.
She directly stated, "No way! We are taking care of Caleb, there’s no need for so many of you."
Susan Langley, undeterred, threw a tantrum, "I want to stay today!
As Gordon’s wife, if I’m not even allowed through the Faulkner’s door, wouldn’t that be a laughing stock?
If you really stop me from staying, then I’ll find the media to expose this and make the Faulkner Family a laughing stock in Aethelgard!"
Mrs. Faulkner was so furious that her eyes were about to pop out, her emotions became agitated, and she clutched her chest, gasping for breath.
Years ago, this woman threatened her the same way. Back then, she really brought the media to publicize the Faulkner Family’s scandals, making them a joke in Aethelgard!
After that incident, Susan Langley had been living in Veridia City, minding her own business.
Except for Alaric Faulkner and Caleb Faulkner, there were no interactions, yet unexpectedly, Susan had come to Aethelgard and started causing trouble again.
Seeing this, Eleanor Sterling quickly stepped forward to support Mrs. Faulkner.
She reached out to gently massage the acupoints on Mrs. Faulkner, then whispered in her ear, "Follow my rhythm, breathe slowly, calm your breath, inhale...exhale..." Follow current novels on Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
It took a while for Mrs. Faulkner to recover.
She patted Eleanor Sterling’s hand, looking exhausted, but her eyes were full of gratitude, her fondness for Eleanor increased.
"Are you feeling better?" Eleanor asked.
Mrs. Faulkner nodded gently, "Much better, thank you, Eleanor."
At this moment, Mrs. Faulkner felt her arrangements were right, Eleanor Sterling was far better than Faye Sterling.
Marrying a virtuous wife, if the Faulkner Family were to accept another Susan Langley, like Gordon did, they would surely decline.
Mrs. Faulkner’s face was gloomy, she glared at Susan Langley and gritted her teeth, "The biggest mistake Gordon made was marrying a woman like you!"
Luckily, Alaric Faulkner and Jasper Faulkner were outstanding and weren’t dragged down by Susan Langley, otherwise, it would indeed be a family misfortune.
Hearing Mrs. Faulkner speak of her this way, Susan Langley’s expression turned cold, and she retorted sarcastically, "What about a woman like me? No matter how much you look down on me, I am the legal wife on Gordon’s marriage certificate!
I even gave him two sons, do I not have the right to reside in the Faulkner Family?"
Mrs. Faulkner trembled all over, her emotions once again uncontrolled.
Seeing this, Eleanor Sterling’s eyes narrowed coldly.
Mrs. Faulkner was old, her health could no longer withstand stimulation, Susan Langley’s continual provocation could easily trigger some old ailments.
