Jeffrey paused when he saw her, his expression strained. “I’m going to the hospital. You should get some rest.”
Yvonne watched him hurry away, a smirk playing on her lips. She could already guess what had happened: Teresa must have caused a scene at the hospital.
George’s affection for Queena, his illegitimate daughter, was now being viewed through a different lens. In the eyes of an outsider—and with Yvonne’s pointed suggestion—their close relationship could easily be misinterpreted.
Life in the Spencer household was not going to be peaceful anytime soon.
And as their lives grew more chaotic, Yvonne’s became more serene. She hummed a tune as she brushed her teeth, washed her face, and climbed into bed early. After a long day of travel by car and plane, she was exhausted and craved nothing more than a long, deep sleep.
She slept soundly until late the next morning, awakened only by a persistent knocking at her door.
“Ms. Jones, are you awake?” It was the maid, Jenny.
Yvonne rubbed her eyes and sat up. She padded to the door in her nightgown and opened it. “Morning, Jenny.”
“Good morning, Ms. Jones.”
“Are they all back?” Yvonne asked casually, leaning against the doorframe.
Jenny replied, “Queena was admitted, so Mr. Spencer stayed at the hospital with her. Mrs. Spencer and Mr. Jeffrey came back last night but left again this morning. She had a luncheon to attend, and he went to the hospital for his shift.”
“You little tramp, born from trash,” Megan sneered, her eyes raking over Yvonne. “Back in the Spencer house, you really think you’re some kind of princess, don’t you? Dressed in silk and sleeping until noon.”
It was her default setting, to lash out at Yvonne the moment she saw her.
Yvonne said nothing, her hands clenched into tight fists at her sides.
Seeing her silence, Megan laughed coldly. “Cat got your tongue? You think you can bully Queena? You little wretch, you’re not even worthy of cleaning her shoes.”
Queena’s staged suicide attempt had landed her in the hospital, and now her biological mother was here to settle the score.
