I Walked Away And He Lost His Mind (Zephyra and Steven) novel Chapter 558

“You—how did you know what happened then? C-could you really be the Lopez family’s granddaughter?!” As Mrs. Lancaster spoke, she seemed to realize something. Her eyes shot to Antonia, and she grabbed her by the wrist. “You! Tell me the truth right now. Are you the granddaughter the Lopez family took back or not?!”

Antonia wanted to stick to her lie, but Megan didn’t give her the chance.

“Is there even a need to ask? The Lopez family’s granddaughter is a talented designer. This woman in front of you can’t even accessorize properly. What skills does she have?”

“Zephyra made a name for herself at the Nova Challenge, earning everyone’s admiration. She’s also the prized apprentice that Mr. Taylor begged to take on. Talent, family background, looks—she has it all. If I had a brother, I’d want him to marry her. To think that in your eyes, Zephyra is someone beneath you… It’s hilarious. Mr. Lancaster is having to grovel to win his wife back, and it’s probably all your fault!”

Antonia fumed. Seeing Mrs. Lancaster’s expression grow uglier, she weakly protested, “I may not be the granddaughter they took back, but I am a granddaughter of the Lopez family! If I marry Steven, besides my family status being a little less prominent, I’m a perfect match for him in every other way!”

All Mrs. Lancaster cared about was a match of equal social standing. That was why she had specifically sought out the Lopez family’s granddaughter!

Antonia’s words hit a nerve, and she exploded in rage, swinging her handbag at Antonia.

“You liar! You pretended to be the Lopez granddaughter to trick me! I’ve already spread the word, and it turns out Zephyra is the real treasure! You made me look like a fool in front of her! I’ll beat you to death!”

Antonia didn’t dare fight back, crying out as she was hit.

“You’re not good to Zephyra anyway! She just said she looks down on you, which means the Lopez family would never approve of you either. You have no chance of marrying into their family! All you wanted was a Lopez granddaughter as a daughter-in-law, and I was perfectly suitable!”

That statement nearly made Mrs. Lancaster faint from fury. Not only had her plans gone up in smoke, but she was also being mocked by an idiot.

The two of them began to fight even more fiercely, drawing the attention of many onlookers.

“Let them tear each other apart,” Megan said with a laugh. “Mr. Lancaster’s mother is really something else. No wonder a man like him is having to grovel to get his wife back. Having in-laws like that would be suffocating.”

Whether Steven could control his mother or not, I didn’t care.

If Steven hadn’t blindsided me with this supposed remarriage, I likely would have never had to interact with Mrs. Lancaster again.
