After saying that, I walked out.

My mother quickly gestured for Addy to follow me to Andrew’s manor.

Addy nodded respectfully to my mother.

“Don’t worry, I’ll protect Shirley and ensure that Debra doesn’t harm her again.

By the time I reached the gate, Addy caught up with me.

Shirley’s POV:

Addy climbed into the car with me and said she would accompany me to Andrew’s manor.

Right after we settled into the car, I whined to Addy, “I know you love me the most, Ms.

Miller.

So tell me about my mom’s plan, please.

Addy just smiled, clearly not falling for my charm.

I was super intrigued by how well thought-out the plan seemed, so I made a compromise and asked, “If you won’t tell me the plan, at lease tell me if we can put Debra in her place.

Andrew should just cut ties with her completely and throw her out of the witch clan!”

Addy, usually so stern, always had a soft spot for me.

She reassured me with a smile, “Don’t worry.

Your mother’s plan will certainly meet your expectations.

My excitement was noticeable; my heart raced, and I couldn’t calm down.

On the way, I anticipated witnessing Debra’s downfall, urging the driver to speed up because I couldn’t wait any longer.

As we were about to reach Andrew’s manor, I took out my makeup for some touch-ups.

Today, I had to look flawless for Andrew-to show him who truly deserved to be by his side.

Once I ensured my attire and makeup were flawless, I stepped out of the car elegantly.

The moment I stepped into Andrew’s manor, whispers filled the air, as if everyone was gossiping about today’s farce.

These rumors surely centered around Debra.

I suppressed my excitement and listened intently.

“People were killed at the engagement party.

They always say mixed—blood witches bring bad luck.

Looks like they are right.

“I can’t figure out what’s gotten into Andrew.

He’s fallen for a half-blood witch.

Such a shame for a brave and refined man.

“Absolutely! For the clan’s sake, Andrew should end the engagement right away!”

Hearing these discussions put me in high spirits; my steps felt Lighter.

Yet, these rumors had spread incredibly fast considering the events were recent.

Unless…

I glanced at Addy, suspicion clear in my gaze.

Could it be my mother and Addy who spread the rumors?

Addy seemed to catch on to my suspicion and simply nodded, without saying a word.
