Chapter 157 Why Did You Mislead Me?
Linda could not argue with Elisa in this setting. Furthermore, she did not know about Julia’s aversion to
jade bracelets. She could not understand how this gift ended up ruining her.
Julia, who had been silent all this while, suddenly burst into fury and yelled, “Tell her to leave. I don’t
want to see her again! Get out!”
Elisa held Julia’s hand and said with a panicked voice, “Grandma, I’m sorry. It’s my fault.”
Her face was full of regret as if she blamed herself for not knowing Linda would not believe her warning.
She seemed to regret warning Linda and causing this unfortunate incident.
Linda was bursting with fury.
That b*tch!
Julia was shaking and was on the verge of losing her mind from anger. She gripped Elisa’s hand tightly

but did not say anything.
Monica saw the situation and feared Linda would never be able to marry Gareth after this. Thus, she
said, “Mom, it happened so long ago, and you weren’t at fault for what happened. Furthermore, this kind
of jade will always be in production, so you can’t avoid seeing them. Therefore, you must not keep
dwelling on that matter!”
Gareth turned to Julia and said in a rare gentle tone, “Grandma, you mustn’t keep grieving for the dead.”
Grieving for the dead?
The crowd had a sudden realization. Grieving for the dead?
Could the dead be the younger son she had lost many years ago?
I heard that boy swallowed something which caused his death. Could it have something to do with this
jade bracelet?
Even though no one explained what happened then, everyone could still guess.
Linda too guessed what had happened and turned pale.

That’s Grandma’s biggest taboo!
Damn it! That b*tch!
Argh!
How could Elisa trick me this way?
If she didn’t mention buying this for Grandma, why would I buy them? Elisa tricked me to humiliate me at
the banquet. How could she do this to me?
Linda was panicking, but she controlled her expression to seem helpless and hurt as she looked at Elisa.
“Liz, why? Why did you trick me into buying the jade bracelet?”
Everyone looked at Elisa in disbelief. Did she trick Linda into buying this jade bracelet?
No wonder Linda refuses to back down even after old Madam Wickam dislikes them. Only an idiot would
do this. Elisa probably knows everything. Anyone eager to please old Madam Wickam would have fallen

for Elisa’s deception.
It turns out Elisa is a cunning woman.
Gareth frowned and looked at Elisa coldly.
However, Elisa seemed confused. “Linda, what are you saying? When did I ever trick you into buying this
bracelet?”
Linda’s expression fell. She suddenly became unsure about revealing the matter. If I bring up the matter
to clear my name, everyone would think that I am a hypocrite because…
But if I don’t reveal it, I won’t be able to clear my name and resolve this misunderstanding with the
Wickam family!
After considering it, Linda decided it was better to reveal it.
She put on a hurt expression and turned to Elisa. “Elisa, I’m not sure what is the misunderstanding
between us, but we are still cousins! I have never hoped to gain anything from you. Have you forgotten
what happened at the mall?”
