Seven Devils // Trouble With My Baby
Victoria knew already from the look on her mother’s face that this wasn’t going to be good. Her eye brows arched up and she looked towards the recliner,” You sure you want me to get blood on the carefully selected furniture?” She held her hands out to show her mother and she crossed her arms just under her chest,” And I’ll stand, talk to your husband, he let me have my way.” Even though she would normally be worried about what was about to happen, she had way too much to deal with to be concerned with her mother being angry or upset with her.
Elizabeth remained calm. The coldness that she used as her shield throughout so many times had always been her strongest ally. "Sit down," the older woman repeated before she raised her voice a bit to call one of the maids into the room. Not moving her eyes from her daughter, Elizabeth gave the second order in a matter of seconds. "Invite Matthew inside - this will take a while." With that, she dismissed her. Elizabeth took a sip of her wine, her eyes still on Victoria while the look on her face remained the same - unreadable. "Now, darling - talk."
