Chapter 701:
“I'll never forget what you did for me.”
Her subdued tone seemed to ease sof Andromache’s anger. Taking a deep breath, she steadied herself,
forcing down the lingering fury.
“Fine. Consider this a lesson.”
A lesson for Leah—one she desperately needed. And a wake-up call for herself.
For too long, Andromache had believed that Nate kept Corrine around as nothing more than a fleeting
amusement, a plaything he kept close when it suited him. But today, he had shattered that illusion. He had torn
through the fragile pretense of harmony for a single woman. And as Andromache replayed his warning, his
presence still lingering in her mind like an iron grip around her throat, it prickled at the edges of her certainty.
She felt a growing sense of caution and fear.
“It’s late. You should go home.” Without another word, she turned and disappeared into the distance.
At Fragrance Garden, Penny recounted the events at the racetrack in quiet detail. Evelyn paused mid-motion, her
pruning shears hovering above the delicate petals.
“Corrine fell off the horse?”

back on just in time.” A subtle exhale left Evelyn's lips, the worry in her eyes easing, but not entirely vanishing.
“As long as she’s alright, that’s what matters.” Despite her words, the weight of the incident dulled her interest
in tending to the flowers.
Setting the shears aside, she turned to Penny.

“Was she injured?”
“I heard she hurt her foot.” Penny hesitated before adding, “Interestingly, this wasn’t just an accident. It seems
the mastermind behind it was none other than Andromache’s so-called goddaughter. Fortunately, Nate still
values family ties.”
Evelyn knitted her brows together in quiet contemplation, but before she could speak, a shrill cry shattered the
stillness.
“Mom! Mom!” It was Andromache’s voice. For a fraction of a second, something cold flickered in Evelyn's eyes.
Penny, ever observant, sighed at the familiar routine.
Ever since Andromache arrived in Lyhaton, she had developed a habit of storming to Evelyn with grievances
every few days—always the stired complaints about how Nate, now a grown man, refused to respect her as
his aunt.
But Penny, an outsider, saw things clearly. Whatever resentment Nate held, Andromache had earned it.
“Shall | send her away?” Penny asked, expecting Evelyn to dismiss the intrusion.
But to her surprise, Evelyn's gaze remained steady on the door.
“Let her in.”
She knew her daughter too well. For years, she had looked the other way—out of love, out of obligation.
