Not only has Jonathan actually married this woman, but he’s been hiding her away all this time and hasn’t even brought her home to meet me!
But as far as Elizabeth was concerned, there was no lack of real beauties in high society. Anneliese’s looks didn’t impress her at all. She just thought the girl looked vaguely familiar.
Elizabeth kept staring at Anneliese, while Anneliese stayed silent, letting her look as long as she wanted.
After a while, the long, silent scrutiny started to get uncomfortable. She pressed her lips together and finally broke the silence.
“Mrs. Fullbuster, if there’s something you want to say to me, please just say it p>
That was when Elizabeth finally looked away.
The only jewelry Anneliese wore was the wedding ring on her right hand. The diamond wasn’t big, but it was bright and eye-catching.
Elizabeth’s eyes landed on it. “Is that your wedding ring p>
Anneliese instinctively glanced down, touching the ring with her fingertips, and nodded.
“Yes, Mrs. Fullbuster. Jonathan picked it out p>
Elizabeth gave a slight, unreadable smile. “You two have a contract marriage, don’t you p>
“Excuse me p>
Anneliese hadn’t expected the question and had no idea whether Elizabeth had already learned something or was just guessing. Her heart skipped a beat.
But it was only for a second. She quickly masked her surprise and just looked at Elizabeth, puzzled. “Mrs. Fullbuster, I’m not sure what you mean. Jonathan and I are doing well p>
Whether or not Elizabeth actually knew anything, Anneliese figured there was no way Jonathan would’ve told her.
He’d only married her to keep his family off his back. Besides, Elizabeth’s idea of a match for Jonathan had been someone like Selina.
Just thinking about Selina’s character, Anneliese found it hard to even look at Elizabeth

without feeling a bit exasperated.

For her to set up Jonathan with someone like Selina, I wonder if she is actually his biological mother.
Anneliese took another close, discreet look at Elizabeth.
She realized that Elizabeth’s features, especially her profile, really did resemble Jonathan’s. There was no doubt she was his mom.
“If this isn’t a contract marriage, I just don’t see why Jonathan would choose you. Plus, Ms. Claude, you clearly don’t see yourself as Jonathan’s wife. Otherwise, you wouldn’t keep calling me Mrs. Fullbuster,” Elizabeth said while taking a sip of coffee. Her tone was casual, but her words were dripping with contempt.
Anneliese liked to think she didn’t care, but being dismissed like that still left her feeling irritated and stifled.
She forced a little smile. “Actually, Mrs. Fullbuster, you should probably ask Jonathan about that. He was the one who pursued me, and he was the one who proposed. I figure there must be something about me he likes.
“Jonathan’s a great guy, but to be honest, aside from his family background, I don’t think I’m any less than him. As for calling you Mrs. Fullbuster, it’s just about
respect for my elders p>
Anneliese added with a smirk, “Mrs. Fullbuster, I may come from a modest background, but my family taught me plenty about respecting others p>
Elizabeth was clearly irritated by that, her expression going cold.
“My son must be drawn to your sharp tongue and thick skin, or maybe he likes your lack of manners and respect p>
Anneliese’s polite smile faded. “Mrs. Fullbuster, respect works both ways. It’s like a mirror. However you treat others, don’t be surprised if they treat you the same p>
“Jonathan treats me very well. He’s always gentle. When I’m with him, I make sure he feels valued and loved, and I’m definitely not sharp-tongued at all p>
She said it all with a straight face, sounding perfectly sweet.
Elizabeth, on the other hand, felt like she’d tried to punch a pillow, only to find it full of
marbles.
“Well, back when Selina told me about you, I thought she was exaggerating. But now that I’ve met you, I realize she was exactly right p>

Yeah, like Selina could ever say anything good about me.
It was obvious that Elizabeth’s first impression of her couldn’t have been any worse.
But Anneliese figured at least she was being honest. This was who she was.
Still, hearing Selina’s name made her blood boil.

Some of it came from how much she despised Selina, but most of it was frustration
at Elizabeth for ever picking someone as malicious as Selina for Jonathan. She
didn’t even think twice about it, even until now.
Anneliese felt angry on Jonathan’s behalf.
That wasn’t what a mother who truly loved her son would do.
Fueled by emotion, Anneliese shrugged, her tone turning sharp.
“Mrs. Fullbuster, you realize I was always destined to be Selina’s worst enemy,
right? You really can’t expect to hear anything nice about me from someone who hates me p>
