Chapter 267

Upstairs, Esme was furious, her face red with anger. She bit her lip, feeling bitter and resentful. "Mom, did you hear that? That old hag clearly looks down on me!" Jasmine patted her gently, trying to soothe her. "Calm down. She's never liked us. This isn't the first time you've noticed." Esme clenched her teeth. She had grown up in the Munoz family and was raised by Astrid, so she couldn't understand why Astrid disliked her so much. Today, she was even criticized in front of Zelda. It felt like a slap in the face! Astrid was completely siding with a stranger! "Mom, why did you stop me earlier? Are you really going to let that woman stay next to Damian?" Esme said, her voice filled with frustration. Munoz Manor had three floors. The first floor was Astrid's, the second was for Esme and Jasmine, and the third was where Damian's and Eden's rooms were. They weren't allowed on the third floor without permission. But Zelda was going to stay on the third floor! She couldn't accept it!
