Bab 39: Her Daughter

"All my plans are ruined." Brooke cried, "How does she always find a way to succeed?

Brooke had thought that she had gotten the man that Lyse wanted and it turned out that she would actually get married to a richer and better man.

The only thing that Brandon had on Levi was that he was younger, Brooke tried to cling to that but was still not appeased. It was not like he was some decrepit old guy, he did not even look his age.

"Don't say that, we can always find a way to bring her down to her knees." Lottie comforted her.

"How??" Brooke wailed helplessly and Lottie sat still as she pondered how to deal with the situation that had suddenly presented itself.

She was seething with jealousy and frustration and could not believe that Lyse, the girl that she considered beneath them, had managed to marry a wealthy and powerful man while her daughter had to make do with Brandon.
