Chapter 66
Rosy’s face it up with excitement.
“Are you sure about this?” she asked eagerly,
“Absolutely,” Ethan replied, taking a sip of water. “Clive Vates got beaten up. Isabel’s completely out of control. She’s managed to offend almost everyone in the Yates family“.
“Mom, dorint this mean I love a chance?” Amelia chimed in, her voice brimming with hope.
Ever since the Calvers had moved into Golden Villa, Amelia couldn’t shake her jealousy.
That estate was leagues above the Clyde family mansion.
Jealousy burned within her.
When she was around the Galvezs never had such luck.
Now that she was gone, they were thriving
Why didn’t she deserve that life!
“You might.” Ethan agreed. “If Mom takes you to the Yates estate and shows them what you can offer, they might think twice about Isabel. It’s worth

His motives were clear, balancing his acting gigs and endorsements was draining him..
If the Clyde family could latch onto the Yates, life would be much easier.
stunning. You need to make an impression
Rosy stood. “Let’s go. We’re taking Amelia to visit the Yates right now! Amelia, change into something st and leave label in the dust she ordered, wasting no time.
Caius Clyde, as usual, silently followed his wife’s lead.
At the Yates estate, a servant informed Yolanda Yates of the Clydes arrival.
Yolanda raused an eyebrow The Clydes? Never heard of them, Send them away?
A small family like the Clydes dared to visit her? As the Yates third branch madam, she didn’t meet just anyone.
They

d there’s been a misunderstanding about the chosen daughter–in–law,” the servant added. “They insist on explaining”
Yolanda hesitated, then waved her hand. “What a lousy excuse. Fine. Bring them in. If they’re wasting my time, they’ll regret it
Only then did the servant invite the Clydes in
As the Clydes stepped into the Yates estate, Amelia’s jaw nearly dropped. “Mom, this place is incredible”
The Clyde mansion was grand, but this was in a league of its owIL
The sprawling estate felt more like a private city. Even moving between rooms required a car.
“Of course. The Yates family’s wealth ranks in the global top ten Rosy’s eyes gleames with determination. “Exactly why we need this connection. If we can secure the Yates, it’ll change everything
Rosy made up her mind, she had to reclaim what rightfully belonged to her daughter.
She turned to Amelia, her tone firm. “This is your chance, Inpress Madam Yolanda. She’s Blake’s mother. If she likes you, you’re as good as in”
Amelia nodded, her confidence building.
Now she realized how
w shortsighted she’d been
She once treated Liam Swanson like a prize, not knowing Blake was the real catch

Chapter 66
Hardly a true powerhouse, compared to the Yates family, they didn’t even measure up to a speck.
As they entered the lounge, the Clyde family looked visibly uneasy. This was, after all, the home of a true clie
Rosy stepped forward nervously but determined. “Mrs Yares,
s, thank you for seeing us. I’m Rosy Clyde, this is my husband Caius, and our daughter
“Yolanda didn’t bother offering tea. She simply asked, “You re claiming w we’ve chosen the wrong daughter–in–law! Care to explain
Rosy mook a deep breath, bunching into the story of the so–called real and fake brinesses, hoping to sway Yolanda’s favor
“Madam Yolanda, the original engagement was for Amelia to marry Blake Only because of the mix up chel we switch daughters. Amelia is the rightful fiancer!”
Yolanda hadn’t expected such I twists and turns.
Her gaze shifted to Amelia. “Your name is Amelia?“
Yes. Madam Yolanda. I grew up with the Calvers and endured so much. When no one else agreed to marry Blake. I stepped up. But after reuniting with my real family, they abandoned me, insisting label is the rightful fiancée”
Yolanda said nothing but she smirked inwardly.
Rosy and Cams exchanged anxious glances.
Unsure of what Yolanda was thinking, she stayed ulent and the tension in the room grew.
Finally, Yolanda extended her hand to Amelu. “Come here, dear.”“”
Amelia besitated until
il Rosy gave her a nudge
Yolanda took Amelia’s hand and looked her over
“You ve been through a lot.” Yolanda said, her tone soft but distant. You made the sacrifice, yet Isabel reaps the rewards. That hardly seems fair.”
Amelia’s eyes lit up
Emboldened, she blurted, “Exactly! That woman stole my life and fance. She doesn’t deserve any of it
Rosy motioned for her to shut up, but Yolanda waved it off with a smile.
“No need to silence her, Yolanda said coolly. “I like her honesty. But Blake has chosen Isabel, and I can’t force him to change his mind. If you can sway him, though, I’ll support you. You’re charming enough to have a chance?
Rosy and Caius brightened, bowing in gratitude.
“Thank
Madam Yolanda. To be honest, label has always been difficult. She’s rude to elders, undisciplined, completely unsuitable for Blake. We tried to handle her, but it’s impossible. If she’s caused you trouble, please forgive us?
intent was clear undermine Isabel to elevate Amelia.
Plus, Isabel had already angered the Vates family, making hier even less likable to them.
“That’s enough for today. You can leave now,” Yolanda said
She saw tirough the Clyde family’s intentions and had no time for idle chatter.
After they Irl, Yolanda’s mail, Marry, stepped forward
“Maam, are you seriously considering Amelia The Clydes teck of desperation And Amelia’s scandal with the Swansons isn’t exactly a secret. She’s already been married““.
Yolanda took a sip of tea, ber vore calm. “Of course I see though them. They’re spportunists.”
Then why entertain them?
“Because I want to see how far they’ll go. Isabel is too heachtrong, she defied me on her first day. If the Clyiles can push her out, it saves me the trouble. Either way, I win.
Marcy nodded. “As sharp as ever, ma’am”

“It was his idea to come. I’m honestly over it,” Isabel said flatly.
She had always been used to doing things on her own.
Apart from Seraphina, she didit keep friends, which made her classmates think she was cold and stuck–up
Yvette especially couldn’t stand her, convinced Isabel’s quiet confidence was just an act
“I think Blake’s solid, Seraphina trase “You saved his life, he probably feels like he owes you forever.
Seraphina thought label needed someone by her side, she was always alone,
“You don’t know hall of it label scoffed. “That Yates is a disaster
“Typical rich family drama, Seraphina shrugged. I heard his dad married three times. But you! You’re no pushover, you can handle it.”
Isabel was about to sure what happened at the Mates estate when her phone buzzed.
She picked it up and answered.
Is this Isabel Clyde“” a slurp voice asked. “Your brother Simon’s been in a light at our restaurant. He’s in bad shape, you need to come now!”
