Chapter 962:
It took several seconds for Adah to fully process what Millie had just said, and when she did, her embarrassment quickly transformed into even greater rage. “Who exactly do you think you are to demand any kind of apology from me?” she shrieked.
“I’m Millie Bennett,” Millie replied with the same unshakeable calm.
“Absolutely perfect!” Helga could barely contain her admiration. This was exactly the kind of confidence and directness she wanted to see.
“You heard her clearly, Adah. Apologize to Millie immediately,” Helga added with obvious approval.
“Helga, you can’t be serious…” Adah turned to her friend with disbelief and mounting fury.
“Under absolutely no circumstance can you have any right to slander my future daughter-in-law. And if you want to talk about status and social position, let me p>
“Let me remind you that she will marry my son and be Mrs. Elliott in the near future. I approve of her. Myron adores her, and our entire family welcomes her.” Helga paused just long enough to let that sink in before delivering her final blow. “And let’s not forget that you’re currently standing in my private, exclusive suite p>
Every word Helga spoke was designed to protect and defend Millie. Adah was so enraged that her chest rose and fell rapidly with her labored breathing.
“How can you treat me this way? We’ve been friends for years p>
“Friends?” Helga let out a laugh that held no warmth whatsoever. “What kind of friend uses my facilities and resources while simultaneously slandering my future daughter-in-law and trying to set my son up with some other woman behind my back, knowing full well he’s in a serious relationship p>
She didn’t hold back her contempt as she continued, “How much money did that girl’s family offer you for this little matchmaking scheme? Now, just get out of here. I want to enjoy a relaxing spa day with my future daughter-in-law, and your presence is ruining the atmosphere p>
Helga turned to address the manager directly. “This is my exclusive private suite, isn’t that correct p>

The manager nodded immediately, then turned to face Adah with obvious discomfort. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Willis, but I’m going to have to ask you to leave the premises p>
“You can’t speak to me like this!” Adah protested, but nobody in the room was paying attention to her complaints anymore.
“You’ll regret treating me this way!” Adah threatened as she grabbed her designer handbag.
She shot one final venomous glare at Millie before adding, “Just wait and see what happens p>
As Adah headed toward the door in defeat, Helga called out one last parting shot. “Actually, please prepare a different room for us. We’d prefer not to remain here. I find this space has been contaminated p>
Helga’s meaning was clear.
Even if she thought this place unpleasant and beneath her now, she still wouldn’t let Adah have it.
Fury rose in Adah’s chest, but Helga had already turned away, guiding Millie around the room and pointing out items she claimed were good for the skin.
