"That ancient creature has seen centuries cand go. It's your elder, too. Shouldn't you go and greet it?" Amoura's face turned red.
"Not everyone deserves respect.” Eileen's lips curled into a cold smile. “For your own sake, cease your meddling. You're not welchere." As the sound of murmured conversations and approaching footsteps grew louder, Amoura swiftly composed herself, her eyes welling up with tears just as Javier entered.
Amoura grasped Javier's arm, her voice trembling. "Darling, I told you the Dawson family might not welcme. Can we please leave now?" Javier's smiling face fell instantly. "What's going on?" His eyes scrutinized Eileen.
After all, Amoura and Stella had been getting along fine when he had left them to go to the garden. Plus, Eileen didn't look particularly pleased now.
"Nothing much." Amoura pursed her lips, her expression completely changing from that of a moment ago. "It's just-" "Since you said it's nothing, why say anything?"

Javier's brow furrowed in confusion. He didn't think Eileen was a troublemaker, but her words were always sharp. "Honey, let's not stay for the meal.” Amoura rubbed her temples. “I feel a bit unwell. Let's visit Mrs. Dawson another day." Amoura's coy demeanor belied her years.
Javier's perception shifted subtly, and he instantly thought Eileen was causing trouble for Amoura.
He said, "Mrs. Dawson, my father specifically askedto visit you when I returned to the country. Even though Amoura isn't my first wife, she is my legal wife now. I hope the Dawson family can accord her the respect she deserves."
"Legal wife?" Stella stood up, waving her hand dismissively. "Eileen is also Bryan's legal wife. She is the future e. She is matriarch of the Dawson family, recognized by both the law and the family. Your second wife's status can't suppress hers. If your wife were smart, she-"
"She would not be so arrogant in front of Eileen. Javier, out of respect for our past family ties, I'm advising you don't ruin the Deleon family's reputation over a woman."
Javier could protect Amoura if he wanted to, and Eileen couldn't do anything about it. However since Stella had decided to step in, the dynamics had swiftly shifted. Javier could only hold back his displeasure, unable to retort to Stella. Amoura couldn't even utter a word now. She stealthily observed Javier's expression, fearing he might be swayed and decide never to give her any power again.
