"What did you just say?!" Uncle Robert shot up from the sofa in shock.
"M-Mistress?!" Aunt stammered, equally stunned and at a loss for words.
She had always suspected that Lily wouldn't amount to anything good, but to think she had become someone's mistress?!
They were a proper family, after all…
This girl really has some nerve.
"What else would it be?" Ethan leaned back against the sofa, watching the paleness spread across Lily's face. The satisfaction of revenge surged through him.
Exposing all her fake pretenses gave him a twisted sense of pleasure.
Yet, seeing the lifeless look in her eyes cut something deep within him, like a blade slicing through his heart.
"Don't talk nonsense! Lily is a good, respectable girl!" Uncle Robert protested, still in disbelief.
A respectable girl?
