Lady Octavia's long-anticipated event suddenly fell through, and she found it hard to accept that her best son in the world married a woman from a small household through a flash marriage without prior approval.
She had always wanted Rebecca Kelloway to marry Ashton Heath, so her dissatisfaction and disgust for Joanna Lawrence were just as deep.
If it weren't for this scheming woman secretly marrying her son, she would never have allowed such a woman to marry into the Heath family!
"Lady Octavia, I made a mistake. If I tell you what it is, you probably won't like me anymore." Tears fell from Rebecca's eyes, and she said with a sad, red face, "You know I've liked Ashton since I was little. My childhood dream has always been to marry him and be his wife."
"I had always thought that I would be his wife."
