Chapter 13 - Julian’s Mother Begs Isabel For Mercy And Forgiveness
Desperate and humiliated, Eleanor Vance drove an old rented sedan to the private residential estate owned by the Kensingtons.
She walked up the stone steps of the grand mansion, ringing the polished brass doorbell with a trembling hand.
A butler in a crisp black suit opened the door, looking down at her with polite, cold indifference.
“I need to speak with Isabel; I am Eleanor Vance,” the older woman stammered, holding her designer handbag tightly.
“Ms. Kensington is expecting you in the solarium, Mrs. Vance. Please follow me,” the butler replied smoothly.
Eleanor walked through the familiar halls, feeling the bitter sting of how quickly fortunes and loyalties could shift.
She found Isabel sitting by the sunlit glass windows, sipping herbal tea while reading a financial daily newspaper.
