The next day, Giselle Keating visited the Faulkner Family, and after identifying herself, she was warmly welcomed into the Faulkner household.
Mrs. Faulkner and Old Master Faulkner met with Giselle Keating and asked, "Miss Keating, what brings you to the Faulkner Family?"
Giselle Keating smiled slightly and courteously handed over the gift she was holding.
"Madam, sir, this is a meeting gift, please do accept it."
Mrs. Faulkner looked at the gift box in front of her, a trace of surprise flashing across her face.
"Alaric and I are friends, and since I’m already in Aethelgard, it’s only natural for me to visit you," Giselle Keating said with a light smile.
Old Master Faulkner, upon hearing the identity of Giselle Keating from the servant earlier, had checked her background and was quite surprised to find she was from The Keating Family.
Now, watching Giselle Keating’s conduct, her graceful and poised demeanor truly matches that of an elegant lady from a prestigious family.
"Miss Keating, how considerate of you."
Giselle Keating’s eyes shifted as she wanted to probe the attitude of the two elders towards Eleanor Sterling.
She asked: "Madam, I heard Eleanor Sterling is Alaric Faulkner’s girlfriend?"
Mrs. Faulkner was a shrewd person, having eaten more rice than Giselle Keating had, she knew exactly what was happening when Giselle asked this.
Most likely, this woman had her eyes on her grandson!
Mrs. Faulkner replied with a smile: "Why does Miss Keating ask this? Does it matter if she is or isn’t?"
She did not answer Giselle Keating’s question, instead giving an ambiguous reply.
Giselle Keating, being straightforward, did not hide her intentions and frankly said, "I like Alaric."
Mrs. Faulkner narrowed her eyes, "Miss Keating likes Alaric?"
"Yes, I’ve liked him for many years, and this time I’ve come to Aethelgard to be with him," Giselle Keating said boldly. The most update n0vels are published on NovєlFіre.net
Mrs. Faulkner did not get overly excited, instead calmly asked, "What if Eleanor Sterling is indeed Alaric’s girlfriend?"
No wonder Giselle Keating chose today to visit the Faulkner Family, she probably wanted to make her move while the two weren’t around and gather intelligence.
Giselle Keating laughed confidently, "If she is, I will still take Alaric away from her.
As long as Alaric isn’t married, I still have a chance... even if he is married, they can still divorce!"
Mrs. Faulkner was somewhat shocked to hear this, not expecting Giselle Keating to be so candid and brazen.
At the corner of the stairs, Estelle Sterling ran upstairs.
Once he opened the door to the room, he rushed to Caleb Faulkner who was playing games.
"Oh my, Caleb, something bad’s happened!"
Caleb Faulkner put down the game controller and looked at him, his dark eyes blinking, signaling him to continue.
"Sister Eleanor has a love rival at the door, very arrogantly claiming she’s going to swoop in and take her man," Estelle Sterling said with a troubled look.
They had worked so hard to get Eleanor Sterling back to the Faulkner Family, only to suddenly face a woman who wanted to snatch Alaric Faulkner from her, they were all at their wit’s end.
Hearing this, Caleb Faulkner jumped up in excitement.
Damn, if the rival succeeded, wouldn’t all his hardships of being unable to speak these few days be in vain?
He’s been holding back without speaking these days, but it was killing him.
They hadn’t even resolved the issue with Faye Sterling, and now another one appears—his dad sure has a way with attracting the wrong women!
Estelle Sterling, rubbing his chin, solemnly said, "That woman is trying to bribe great-grandfather and great-grandmother while Sister Eleanor is away. We have to stop her!"
Caleb Faulkner nodded in agreement, what should they do then?
"We should plant a bug in great-grandfather’s study, so we can listen to what they’re saying later."
Both nodded repeatedly, then together they quietly slipped into the study.
