She walked to Madeline and coldly asked, “Mrs. Griffith, it has been less than five minutes since you arrived. Are you so sure that I’m the one at fault here?”
“It doesn’t matter.” Madeline lowered her voice to explain, “You are from the countryside, so you don’t know the rules here and I don’t blame you for that. I also don’t object to your relationship with Alexander, but you can’t do anything you like using the name of the Griffith Family...”
“There are some things where you simply don’t insist that you are right. I’m now teaching you how to interact in an upper-class society. Please remove your judgment where you think that I’m deliberately picking on you again.”
It was true that Madeline was being fair and square this time around. She was doing this for the benefit of the Griffith Family without having any intention to give Elise a hard time. However, the only flaw in this was that she never stood in Elise’s shoes.
Madeline’s words were like a bucket of cold water that was thrown on Elise. She instantly understood that the greatest obstacle between her and Alexander wasn’t Madeline, but the many rules of society itself. And she had always hated such rules.
