But James had already made preparations in advance. He clapped his hands. Suddenly, four young, beautiful, and fashionable women entered the room. They all held makeup kits and clothes in their hands. It seemed that James had invited them to help Summer get dressed up.Summer hadn't been used to having so many people dressing her up and doing her makeup back when she had been home. However, since the last time Caroline had brought a group of people to style her, she had gradually become accustomed to calmly accepting others' help with getting ready.The women busily surrounded Summer. Once they were done, she was ready in a new outfit. She was dressed in a black strapless outfit, and her hair had been styled with slight curls. She exuded an elegant temperament, resembling the noble and refined women in dramas.Standing on the side, James nodded in approval, seemingly satisfied with Summer's new appearance.However, Summer felt dissatisfied. For some reason, she felt as if she

Everything seemed to be pleasant now. At first glance, Summer had assumed that Herbert might be a difficult person to get along with. However, after seeing how friendly he was toward her, she felt that keeping him company might not be as hard as she thought.Unexpectedly, Herbert asked, "Which prestigious family do you come from? Since James favors you, I'm guessing that you aren't an ordinary woman."This question made Summer feel embarrassed. She didn't know how to answer Herbert.On the side, Caroline replied in a cold tone, "Herbert, my daughter-in-law comes from a modest family. Please don't mind it.""Modest family?" asked Herbert."Yes, her family owns a company called Charter Corporation in Rosseera City. But that's all. It's rare for James to like someone," Caroline said.The conversation between the two brought Summer's emotions down to a freezing point. Couldn't they continue chatting nicely?Summer really wanted to run away, but James placed his hand around her sho

"She doesn't have any," Caroline added in a disdainful tone. "Summer here is just an ordinary girl. She has been making mistakes since she joined this family. It's so difficult for me to teach her."As Summer continued to listen, she felt so humiliated that she almost wanted to flip the table and leave. She had really had enough."Uncle, Mom, I apologize for letting you think so poorly of me. Since I'm such a hindrance, I won't disturb your time together. I'll go back and reflect on myself," Summer said calmly. She maintained her composure very well. She had initially wanted to lash out, but she thought that it would only prove that she had low emotional intelligence. Besides, she didn't want to openly oppose Caroline. After all, she had just been punished by her last night.Since she wasn't wanted there, she thought of a plan to escape.Caroline didn't stop her from leaving. She waved her hand and said, "Go ahead. It's not suitable for you to stay here anyway."Since Caroline

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Quigley. I'm not sure about this either. How about I help you to ask around?" Lexi said.Lexi had a good rapport with the Quigley family. She was a lively and charming person. She also got along well with all the household staff. If she wanted to investigate matters concerning the Quigley family, she could easily gather a lot of information by simply asking the housekeepers. Therefore, Summer entrusted Lexi with the task of investigating Herbert.Summer sat in her room alone. The sun was shining brightly in the afternoon, but she found herself unexpectedly hungry. She had been woken up abruptly early in the morning and hadn't had her breakfast or lunch. It was no wonder that she was hungry. Caroline had decreed that no one should give Summer any food since she was allowed only one meal a day as punishment.Initially, Summer hadn't minded eating one meal a day because she used to only eat unfulfilling fruit portions when she had been on a diet last time. Ho

But since Susanne had said that she wanted to see what kind of woman Summer was, the latter was worried Susanne would mock her like Herbert had.So, before Susanne could say anything else, Summer spoke up. "Let me tell you now that I'm just an ordinary person. I was raised in Rosseera City. I can't compare to the Yanceys or the Quigleys. I'm nothing special."Summer decided to dig herself a hole and jump into it before Susanne criticized her.However, to Summer's surprise, Susanne didn't humiliate her. Instead, Susanne took Summer's hand, smiled, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? It doesn't matter if your background is ordinary or not. "I really like you. You're friendly and beautiful. James is lucky to have married you."Summer thought she had misheard it. Someone had actually said that James was lucky to be married to her!When other people learned that Summer was married to James, they would say she was lucky. However, Susanne actually said it was James' good

At this moment, Summer was quite intrigued. She guessed that the two cousins must not have seen each other for a long time and hence had a lot to talk about. So, she suggested, "How about you two talk first? I'm going out for a walk.""Alright, thank you, Summer." Susanne waved as she escorted Summer out. Summer didn't think much of it, but she noticed the reluctant expression on James' face. There was a complicated look in his eyes, as if he had something he wanted to say but couldn't.Summer didn't know what James wanted to say. She picked up her pace and left the room. It was rare for her not to have a class, so she decided to go out and take a walk.Because of Herbert's arrival, the entire Quigley household had been busy preparing a grand welcome banquet. Summer couldn't help but think that this was both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, her classes had been canceled due to the banquet. On the other hand, she heard that Herbert would be staying at the Quigley residenc

The security guards were quite tactful. Although Caroline didn't allow Summer to leave the residence, Summer was still the lady of the household. If she was accidentally injured, the security guards wouldn't be able to escape the consequences."Mrs. Quigley, please don't make things difficult for us. If you go out, Madam Caroline will definitely put the blame on us," the head of security said in a diplomatic tone."You're all afraid of Caroline, but not me? I want to go out now. It's just a short walk. It's not like I'm leaving this place for good. Why are you all so anxious?" Summer snapped back."Mrs. Quigley, we're only following orders. Please talk to Madam Caroline if you insist on going out." The head of security spoke in a more serious tone when he realized that trying to reason with Summer was useless. At the same time, he also signaled to other security guards to take Summer away.Summer wasn't one to be intimidated. When the security guards grabbed her arms, she took

Summer looked up and saw the head of security fall flat to the ground. His scary face was completely covered in mud and grass.Upon seeing that, she couldn't help laughing out loud. "You're really useless."The head of security was both anxious and furious now. He waved frantically and shouted to his subordinates, "Quick, catch Mrs. Quigley! What are you guys doing standing there?"The security guards snapped to attention after receiving his order. They all started rushing forward, but as they chased after Summer, she swiftly changed direction. Since the head of security had fallen to the ground and their circle had been broken, Summer ran toward the spot where the head of security had been originally standing. Then, she successfully broke through the siege of the security guards.…After a while, Summer was relaxing in a pavilion in the Quigley residence, while the nine security guards behind her were all out of breath. They glared at her. What had happened earlier was like
