Chapter 1248
Delia had assumed Andre was nothing more than Nyla's private tutor. She never expected that Emerald had
handpicked him for an arranged marriage!
"That's right," Emerald confirmed.
"No way! | don't agree with this!" Delia protested.
Emerald remained indifferent. "And what right do you have to disagree? What does this have to do with you?"
A heavy silence fell over the room.
Emerald stared at Delia coldly, waiting for an answer.
Delia clenched her fists, lowering her head.
After a long pause, she finally looked up, her eyes resolute. "Mom, | like Andre. | won't let him be with another
woman."
Now that she had spoken her truth, a weight lifted off her shoulders. For the first time, she looked Emerald
straight in the eye, determination blazing in her gaze.
"If this is about marriage, why does it have to be Nyla? Why can't it be me?" she demanded.
Emerald's voice turned ice-cold. "Delia, | must have spoiled you too much. Starting tomorrow, your credit cards
will be frozen. You can ctalk towhen you've cto your senses."
With that, she stood up to leave.

about wanting to be with Andre?"
Emerald's gaze remained cold. "What part of him is worthy of you? He comes from a declining family. Forget
about you-even any half-decent family wouldn't consider marrying their daughter to him."
"Then why are you marrying him to Nyla? Isn't she your daughter too?" Delia pressed.
"You and she are different," Emerald replied.
"What's the difference? She already has a husband and child. She doesn't
deserve to marry Andre!" Delia exclaimed.
"Even if she didn't exist, | still wouldn't let you be with him. You need to let this go," Emerald said.
Pushing past her, Emerald walked toward her study.
Delia stood frozen, her eyes red with frustration. She watched her mother's
retreating figure but didn't dare follow.
Back in her bedroom, she heard a knock at the door.
A maid entered cautiously. "Ms. Nixon, Ms. Kinsey had a fever all day... She only
just recovered not long ago. But Madam doesn't suspect you."
Delia shot her a cold glance. "And so what if she did? Do you really think she'd punishover Nyla?"
The maid hesitated before quickly replying with a flattering smile, "Of course not! Ms. Kinsey could never
compare to you in Madam's heart."
"Alright, you can go," Delia dismissed her.
