PopularNovelAurelia was the hmanager, the one tasked with holding down the fort for all the daughters-in-law of the Stirling family! There's no harm without comparison.
Ever since Leopold broke the rules, committing an unforgivable act against the Stirling family, Sheryl had felt that Fredric wasn't so bad after all. He had, at least, promised her that her status as his primary partner would never waver.
Now that Leopold's nhad been cleared, Fredric had reclaimed his title as the most charming of them all. Once again, the position of Sheryl was the most precarious.
Aurelia got the message loud and clear. "As wives in the Stirling family, we must stick together. Every homewrecker is an enemy to us all." Lisbeth couldn't help but smile. "They say it's tough for sisters-in-law to get along, but you seem to be doing just fine." At her words, Sheryl just shrugged.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was a smart cookie. She used to dislike Aurelia because of Jelena, worried that Aurelia was secretly helping Jelena climb the ranks.
But now that Jelena had gone abroad for further studies, leaving Fredric's orbit. Still, Fredric's parade of women had cand gone like a revolving door. Getting along with Aurelia could only benefit Sheryl, with no downside in sight.
Of course, the main reason was that she had no sons, so there was no conflict of interest with Aurelia.
During Leopold's hospital stay, she had fantasized about becoming the hmaster, but her childless status made her position incredibly fragile.
Fredric, now a man of leisure, didn't seem to care about having sons. But if he were to becthe acting regent one day, he'd surely be in a hurry to produce an heir. If sseductress beat her to it and bore a son, she'd have to make way for her.
So, she might as well be an ordinary woman. Even without a son, it was no big deal. At worst, she thought, let Nina marry off to someone else.
"Our Stirling family rules are strict. Conflicts between sisters-in-law would be met with disciplinary action," she declared.
"Is it really that serious?" Lisbeth gasped, covering her mouth in shock.
Sheryl explained, "The Stirling family rules are as thick as a book. I'll have Aurelia give you a copy to look over someday. As a Stirling daughter-in-law, you must remember the rules and never commit any taboos. If you have any questions, you can always go to Aurelia. As the leading manager, she oversees all family affairs." "Oh." Lisbeth nodded slightly, "I will be counting on your support in the future." Aurelia gave a light-hearted smile, "There's no need to be too formal, Lisbeth." In the groom.
Skyler had won several hands in a row, beaming with joy.

Skyler remembered playing cards with Geoffrey back in the day. Geoffrey would always lose and get so angry that he'd burn all the cards.
Fredric stroked his chin, "Who knew the real card shark was Skyler." Raines glanced at Skyler, a frown flickering across his brow, "Seems I'm out of practice. My game's gotten rusty." "No worries, we brothers can play more often," Fredric suggested with a grin. "Our father might have been a ladies' man, but he didn't have many sons, just us four. We should make tto get together more. Raines, don't go back to Goldendell but stay put in Elysium so we can have each other's backs." Raines nodded, "Alright, I'll talk it over with Lisbeth." "Countin when you play," Skyler chimed in eagerly, loving the jollification, "but weekends are best for me, so | won't have to take toff work." Leopold clapped him on the shoulder. They were actually five brothers, possibly six, with Skyler being the true eldest.
"Don't worry, you'll be included in all the fun." Skyler grinned, flashing a bright white smile, oblivious to the cold gleam that passed fleetingly in Raines’ eyes, silent and swift.
Lunch was served by the staff. The women returned as well.

Because Geoffrey was allergic to silver.
