Chapter 27 * 38 % But the moment she saw Rosalie sitting there , utterly indifferent and showing not even a shred of remorse , a cold sneer flickered in Claudias eyes .
Claudia thought .
Julians right here , and she cant even be bothered to put on a show ? Does she really think she can do whatever she wants just because shes Mrs.
Galloway now ? Tssacs dead .
Theres no one left to keep Julian in check .
And I called Rosalie young on purpose , yet Helena is even younger than her by a few months , and look how sweet and considerate she is Every word out of Claudias mouth was a carefully laid trap , designed to make Rosalie look bad .

If Rosalie were still the same foolish girl who couldnt live without Julian , she mightve been worried about how they were trying to turn him against her .
But now , she couldnt care less .
Rosalie thought , a slow , amused smirk tugging at the corner of her lips , Go on , keep up the performance .
I have to admit , these two are damn good at playing their roles .
Sure enough , the moment Claudia finished speaking , Edwards face darkened with irritation .
Young ? Shes twenty years old .

How is that still young ? Helena is even younger than her , and just look at the difference between them .
Claudia put on a bitter smile , her expression tinged with helplessness .
She even cast Rosalie an apologetic glance , as if silently conveying that she had done everything in her power as a stepmother if Edward refused to listen , there was nothing more she could do .
After all , Edward was Rosalies biological father .
It was only natural for him to discipline her .
Rosalie , completely unmoved by Claudias sickeningly insincere display , simply stirred her coffee in a slow , idle rhythm , the tiny silver spoon clinking softly against the porcelain .

Edward ignored Claudias supposed attempts to mediate and proceeded to recount the entire matter to Julian in detail .
Julian finally spoke , his voice calm but laced with an edge of something unreadable , She said all that ? His expression remained impassive , but the slight furrow of his brows gave him away he was displeased .
Everyone in the Graham family immediately perked up , feeling a surge of satisfaction .
Especially Claudia and Helena .
They were practically reveling in the moment , convinced that they had finally made Julian see Rosalies cruel , sharp tongued nature .
The thought of him growing disgusted with her filled them with unspeakable joy .
