Zorander resident


    Lady Sam has been planning a tea party for a few days since her father-in-law left. She invited all the noblewomen of the court. All the women neutrally accepted this invitation.


    Lady Sam was now the madam of the Zorander household, moreover, her daughter Jane was engaged to Prince William.


    Lady Sam was in high spirits, some of her close friends even came over earlier to join the family for lunch. Robert has been very busy so he was not home at this time. When they gathered for lunch lady Bridget was not present. She knew that lady Sam will try to embrace her since she was now the new madam of the house.


    "where is lady Bridget?" Lady Quinn asked. She was looking forward to seeing how little they could make her feel. Lady Bridget was a member of a top family in Bozao. By birth, she was not on the same leave with these women. She was not someone they could afford to offend.


    In the past, even lady Sam watch her mouth but now that her husband was the lord of the house, lady Bridget''s social status has fallen and these women did not mind stepping all over her.


    As long as the Zorander family will not back her up, she had no power but unfortunately lady Bridget did not even show her face in the dining hall.


    "Why are you asking such a question, she will definitely be shy to show her face," lady Ruth said with a low chuckle.


    "Stop it, she is still a member of the Zorander family," she sounded as though she was scolding her friends but in the real sense, she just wanted to show off her new status.


    "We apologize Lady Zorander," her two friends said. Of course, they understand what she was trying to do.


    Lawrence was standing by the doorway and heard all that was going on, he thought he would find his brother in the dining hall to wish him farewell. Lawrence and his family have been arranging her things to leave the Zorander resident since lord Zorander left. Because Lady Sam and Robert had been busy they did not notice this.


    When Lawrence saw what they were saying he simply ignored and called all the servants that came with him back to Bozao. There were a total of three carriages. One had the family of three, while the other two carried their belongings.


    The new house they were moving into was not far distant from the Zorander house.


    In less than an hour, the group arrived in their new home. Lady Bridget was surprised. Although Lawrence had told her about them moving out of the Zorander house, she never thought that their new house will be this big.


    It was bigger than the Zorander residents. Because she was unaware of how big this house was, she had only invited a few of her close friends to the house opening.


    There was only lord Zorander, lord Yancey and his family, lady Amnell, who is married to Lady Bridget''s brother, and lady Britney a childhood friend of Lady Bridget.


    "you did not tell us that your new house was this big," Lady Amnell said.


    "would you believe me if I said I was also unaware," Lady Bridget answered.


    "ahh! This is way bigger than the Zorander resident. This is the first time a branch is bigger than the main house," Lady Britney could not stop her mouth.


    "What main branch? Lawrence is cutting ties with his brother. This new residence has nothing to do with the Zorander household," Lady Bridget corrected.


    "is that so, no wonder only lord Zorander is present," Lady Yancey said. She suddenly remembered her husband''s words a few days back when he said that lord Zorander may be trying to ruin the Zorander household.


    "Is this not too much, Jane is going to marry the crown prince soon, being related to the Zorander house will still be a lot of benefits," Lady Britney said. She had never supported her friend in marrying Lawrence. As far as she was concerned Lawrence was not qualified to marry Bridget.


    Lady Yancey and Danny rolled their eyes when they heard lady, Britney. What crown prince? They thought but said nothing.


    " it does not Matter, Lady Sam is unreasonable, I did rather not get any support from them, " Lady Bridget said. Her tone was flat. What support, she was certain that her husband will be able to make his own wealth.


    "Ahh! You are still so proud," Lady Britney said.


    "of course, lady Bridget has us the Yancey to relay on. As their in-laws we would support them," Lady Yancey said.


    "That right, I heard that lord Zorander is now a royal adviser and he has plans to leave his seat in the royal council to Lawrence," Lady Anmell said.


    "where did you hear such a thing?" Lady Bridget asked. She was unaware of this.


    "your brother is already a member of the Royal council and lord Zorander made it known. He has handed over the household to Robert, I heard that in the next Royal council meeting, your husband will be named lord Zach," Lady Amnell said.


    "Zach?" the other women had a surprised look.


    "is he not supposed to be called lord Zorander?" Lady Britney did not understand what was going on.


    "no, the name Zorander belongs to Robert, Zack is lord Zorander first name. This is called cutting off all ties with the Zoranders," Lady Bridget explained. Her husband already informed her that he wanted to cut ties with the Zorander family and to do that he would have to drop the household name. So he decided to take his father''s first name.


    " oh, that good, as long as he is a noble I will feel satisfied," Lady Britney said.


    "of course, lord Zorander already promised the Anmells years ago that our Bridget will not suffer," Lady Amnell said. Lady Bridget was surprised. She never knew her father-in-law made such promises.


    "you see, an honest man is everything," Lady Bridget said looking at her friend.  Lady Britney smiled shyly. She had married a capable nobleman. If she wanted him, it meant that other women did too. Her husband who promised that she will only be the one in his eyes already took two more wives and his mistresses could not be counted in a single hand.


    "That is right, this is why my husband has decided that as long as a man was honorable he will definitely allow our Danny to marry him," Lady Yancey said.


    She knew that many women of the noble court now look down on her daughter because she wanted to marry the son of a fisherman.. If only they knew.
