The matriarch finally lost her patience and snapped, "Damian, Alice is a guest *I* invited, and *I* was the one who agreed to let her stay. Don't I even have the authority to invite someone to live here?"
'She had personally agreed to let Alice move in. Kicking her out now was a blatant slap in the face, wasn't it?'
When Caden Reginald didn't respond, the matriarch aimed her fire directly at Seraphina Ashworth. "Did you put Damian up to this?"
Seraphina Ashworth felt completely innocent as the blame was suddenly shifted to her. 'Did I just get caught in the crossfire?'
Seraphina Ashworth might not have minded, but Caden Reginald certainly did. It was one thing that he hadn't been here yesterday, but he was here today, and there was no way he would let his darling suffer the slightest grievance. "Grandma!"
Caden Reginald's low voice was laced with an icy chill. He was genuinely angry.
