The Lady of the King Family nodded absentmindedly, the smile on her face fading as she recalled what Aiden Grant had said to her on the phone when inviting her to Silvercrest.
She had always thought that the one Aiden Grant would marry would either be Tessa Thompson or Chloe Keaton—it never occurred to her that someone as obscure as Lily Shaw would become the Eldest Young Madam of the Grant Family.
Lily Shaw clearly failed to win the Lady of the King Family's favor; quite a few society ladies noticed this, and looked down on her even more in their hearts.
This was the rule of the circle: so what if Lily Shaw was Aiden Grant's legitimate wife in name?
If she couldn't gain the approval of the Grant Family or the King Family, she'd never truly be the Eldest Young Madam of the Grant Family in any meaningful sense.
Lily Shaw was well aware of this, but she didn't care one bit.
