Chapter 373

Chapter 373:
The thought of speaking out terrified Cathryn. She didn’t want to upset Erica, so she kept nodding. What Erica said made a lot of sense. The importance of moral development and upbringing was undeniable.
Alisson, in particular, took great pleasure in Rachel’s apparent humiliation.
Even more, she added, “Rachel, you are always willing to share your views. Don’t you feel like making a comment today? You do agree with Mrs. Lopez, don’t you?”
Rachel glared at Alisson.
Erica spoke to Rachel in an icy tone. “One man’s meat is another man’s poison. You should take care of your family matters immediately. Try not to keep me waiting too long, please. If you do, I swear there will be no place for you in the aristocracy of Ploville.”
Erica then strutted haughtily past Rachel.
Erica’s imposing presence pushed Rachel back a few steps, leaving her looking utterly disgraced.
Candice couldn’t keep calm anymore as she gazed at Erica’s receding figure in the mirror.
In the past, only her mother, Corrine, had stood up for her like this. But her parents had tragically died in a car accident, leaving her without the warmth of elders for three long years.
That was why Erica’s recent actions had warmed her heart in a way she hadn’t felt in years.
Erica had forced Rachel to deal with the matter between her and Greyson as soon as possible, and she didn’t even try to hide the fact that she was willing to accept Candice, regardless of her family background, past marriage, or history.
What was more, she had emphasized her intelligence and cultivation and had harshly belittled Madilyn without a second thought.
Erica was indeed from an eminent family with an extraordinary temperament. She was strong and domineering in front of people but gentle and approachable behind closed doors. Unlike some villains who bullied the weak and feared the strong, Erica never put on airs in public or made difficulties for others secretly. Candice had seen it all today and couldn’t be more grateful to have someone like Erica on her side.

Rachel’s face contorted with anger, and Madilyn looked even more terrifying as she unconsciously grabbed the side of her face, wiping away most of her foundation.
Cathryn and Bessie quickly backed away.
Cathryn offered a quick apology before hurrying off alongside Bessie.
Alisson sneered and mocked Rachel. “Looks like bitches really do have their own fate.”
“What did you say?” Rachel seethed with anger, wanting nothing more than to tear Alisson apart. But since they were in a public place, all she could do was watch her leave arrogantly.
When only Madilyn and Rachel remained, the atmosphere became even more awkward and tense.
Word of the incident spread like wildfire among the women, with someone overhearing just a few words from bystanders and quickly spreading them around.
