But for this old woman to speak to her in such a condescending tone, she had to be someone important. Judging

So, even though Elizabeth was fuming inside, she forced herself to hold back her temper. "I'm-"
"Never mind, it doesn't matter who you are," Harper interrupted. "You don't look like a proper young lady
anyway."
"Hey, you-"
Elizabeth almost lost it.
She was already annoyed from not being able to push Caroline aside. Now, she was getting scolded out of
nowhere?
Harper eyed her and said, "What? Not happy? Did | say something wrong? From the moment you walked in, you

Elizabeth scoffed, refusing back down. "What did | do? I'm acting completely normal!"
"Normal? Then why were you trying to wedge yourself between David and Caroline?" Harper snapped. "And
what's with your voice? Why are you speaking in that fake, high-pitched tone? Do you even know how to talk

stood by, doing her best to suppress her laughter.
She didn't say a word. She had no intention of interfering. This was too good to miss.
Besides, Harper was right on point. Every word hit home.
"l... I wasn't raised properly?" Elizabeth was outraged. She was done playing nice. "And what about you?
If you had any manners, you wouldn't just start attackinglike this! Who do you think you are? Just because
you're older, you think you can talk down to me?"
Frustrated, she stomped her foot and turned to David.
"Mr. Ellison, look at this! I didn't even do anything, and she's treatinglike this! You have to stand up for me!"
David's face darkened. And Caroline-she couldn't hold it in anymore.
A snort escaped her, and then she burst out laughing.

Elizabeth's words choked in her throat. Her expression twisted through several shades of shock, disbelief, and
panic.
"Wait... she's... your mother?"
Harper's face turned dark. "Don't you dare call'Mom. You're not worthy. Only two people in this world have

Elizabeth immediately shut up. Not another word of protest. Holy crap, | almost just offended my future mother-
in-law!
No wonder Caroline had been laughing-she was waiting for her to embarrass herself!
If David hadn't stepped in to warn her, she would've ended up completely ruining her chances at the Ellison
family!
Instantly, she changed tactics, plastering on a sweet, ingratiating smile.
"Madam Harper! Oh my, it's such an honor to finally meet you! I've heard so much about you but never had the
chance to visit. What a coincidence that we run into each other today! You look so young- honestly, you don't
