NovelEnglishElora had gone through so much after taking charge that she lost faith in the men around her. She no longer expected love.

The meeting starts at 3:30, and I want Tinsley to go hearly tonight, so Auntie won't have to complain." Mrs. Ormond curled her lips and replied, "She just loves to complain. As her sister-inlaw, I have to deal with it. I hardly see you, even though we live under the sroof. So who am I supposed to complain to?" Mrs. Ormond would get up early while Elora was already at the company. When Elora returned late at night, her mother was asleep. So they rarely saw each other. Who was Mrs. Ormond really complaining about? When Mrs. Ormond married into the family, the men didn't accomplish much. So when their daughters becsuccessful, the mothers had to support them even more.
Mrs. Ormond then said, "Oh, by the way, the head of the Labbe family in Havenmill sent us several invitations to attend their banquets. Tinsley told us not to bother, so we didn't go." "But Mr. Labbe didn't give up. He sent another invitation yesterday, inviting us again." "He even visited us. Tinsley said not to engage with him too much, so when he visits, we greet him politely and send him off the sway. If he asks anything, we just say we're not the ones to talk to and refer him to you. Mr. Labbe seems nice. I don't know what he did to upset Tinsley, but she doesn't like him." Elora replied seriously, "What kind of head is he? The real head of the Labbe family should have the family totem and token. He has neither. The true leader and his close family members are all dead. Why isn't he?" "He's just a temporary leader, part of the Labbe family's elite, but he doesn't have any real authority. When the rightful heir returns, everything he's done will be for someone else's benefit." Mrs. Órmond frowned. "That's their business, not ours. But he's clearly after you or Tinsley. He must be in his forties, maybe even fifties, no matter how well he's aged. Why isn't he married? Why would he think he could pursue you or Tinsley?" Elora was still young and hadn't experienced love yet, but that man, Mr. Labbe, dared to have feelings for her. Did he want to hold on to her or leave his current wife and remarry? Even if he divorced and married her daughter, Mrs. Ormond didn't think Labbe was good enough.
Elora said, "No wonder Tinsley hates him and tells us to ignore him. He's nothing but a pervert. Our Ormond family is one of the most respected families in Annenburg. How dare he think he could insult us? If he shows up again, I'll have him kicked out and throw away every invitation he sends!" Did he think the Ormond family was an easy target? The daughters of the Ormond family were just as capable as the men and could carry the family nforward.
