Meanwhile, inside the old lady's head, she was busy defending herself.
Without seeing Amabel in person though she was liking her already considering how her appearance made Philippa lose so much face, it was still better to meet her early and see what kind of girl she was.
While she was desperate for Valentine to have a child, that didn't mean that any woman can bear his children. Genes also matters and if Amabel's character was bad, then her future grandchildren ….. she didn't dare think any further. She needed to be rational.
Moreover, meeting Amabel early and seeing for herself the kind of girl she was before she knows who Valentine was, would also help her assess Amabel in a better light.
When the girl knows about Valentine's background, who knows what kind of schemes she would come up with, not knowing that the cat was already in the bag and the little lass was already ahead in her scheming schedule.
It was going to be great show worth watching.
