Brittany stood frozen, looking around the dining room.

A while ago, a servant of the Green family had come to ask how they would like their meal prepared. Brittany, not knowing that Kay had returned, assumed Lisi would be eating breakfast alone.

The Duke and Duchess of Witlow had said they would eat in their room, but Brittany stubbornly headed for the main dining room. Because she had a conversation she wanted to have with Lisi alone.

However, Lisi was not alone in the dining room.

Wallace and Nathan, and Zen and Nella.

“Brittany.”

At the sound of Lisi’s call, Brittany came to her senses.

Seeing Lisi’s smile, anger surged within her.

‘Look, Brittany. Jereshien and Nellanicos, who you have trouble with, are getting along with me so well. Aren’t you jealous? You wanted to be friends with these people, but you’ve never had a proper conversation.’

It seemed as if Lisi was saying that.

‘Screw you!’

As before, she wanted to grab Lisi by the hair, scold her for laughing like that from somewhere. She wanted to teach Lisi, who dared to act without knowing her place, a lesson.

However, Brittany had enough reason left not to lose her temper in front of Zen and Nella.

“Yeah, Lisi.”

She called the rarely used nickname sweetly and smiled.

Like an older sister who dearly loved her younger sibling.

“I wanted to have breakfast together, but did I come to a place where I shouldn’t?”

“No. Let me introduce you. This is Lady Nellanicos, the wife of General Zen, and this is Jereshien Green, my husband’s younger sister. Ah, you’ve been to many parties, so you must be familiar.”

Of course, she was familiar. The problem was that they’d never spoken.

Brittany wanted to stop Lisi from speaking any further unnecessary words.

Nella and Zen merely nodded their heads, they did not introduce themselves.

“By the way, you are very popular whenever you go to a party. You know as many people as Nella does, and everyone wants to be friends with you. So you must be close with Nella.”

Brittany tightly closed her mouth and glared at Lisi.

Stop talking nonsense!

“I didn’t know I had a friend I wasn’t aware of.”

Nella replied coldly.

Her face turned red at that explicit rejection and mockery.

“Ah…… hahaha…… when did I say such a thing…… You’re boasting again. It seems you’re busy, so I’ll leave.”

Brittany didn’t have the confidence to sit here as if nothing was wrong and eat. Nor did she have the confidence to deal with the changed Lisi.

Lisi, surrounded by Nella and Zen, was different from the Lisi she had known before. Her eyes, her posture, her speech and behavior, everything. She seemed like a different person wearing Lisi’s shell.

As Brittany was about to turn away, Lisi spoke.

“Where are you going? Didn’t you come to eat together? Sit down.”

Her voice was soft, but it was a command.

Brittany clenched her fist and forced a smile.

“No. I think I’m bothering you because I’m busy with wedding preparations… I didn’t consider your situation because I wanted to see my sister.”

“You don’t have to think about it. Sit there and look at my face as much as you want.”

An elegant smile spread on Lisi’s lips.

Brittany barely suppressed her rough breathing due to anger. If she just left when Lisi was speaking like that, she would look like a defeated dog. She didn’t know what Lisi would say to them after Brittany left.

She had no choice but to sit in the spot Lisi pointed out, next to Lisi.

There were six people in the dining room, Lisi, Zen, Nella, Wallace, Nathan, and Brittany.

Three people could sit facing each other, but Zen and Nella sat next to Wallace and Nathan.

It looked like the Green family was observing the two daughters of the House of Witlow.

It was hard for Brittany to keep her face up.

‘Surely they’re comparing my face with Iris’s.’

She had often experienced such things since she was young. She knew that the nannies and maids were muttering behind her back that ‘Brittany can’t follow Iris in looks, at least.’

‘So, Laforde too… No, let’s stop thinking about Laforde.’

Brittany decided to concentrate on eating, picking up the fork in front of her.

She had to show Lisi, who she couldn’t have, the dignity of a real duchess from the House of Witlow.

‘Lisi, you look like you don’t know how high the sky is since you’re married to Duke Green, but in the end, your lowly bloodline will be revealed.’

The time when Lisi was so arrogant would only be now.

Kevrant was just momentarily captivated by Lisi’s appearance, it was clear that he would get tired of living with Lisi within a year.

Lisi enjoyed dining and chatting happily with Zen and Nella. Occasionally, Wallas and Nathan participated in the conversation, and respect for Lisi was felt in their speech.

As the sound of Lisi’s laughter came through, the annoyance that she had barely suppressed surged up again.

“That’s not your place, Iris! It was originally my place!”

Britney thought that if it weren’t for Iris, she would have been the one to marry Kevrant.
