Mrs. Caffrey smiled and added, "Nona and Andrew got along great. We always joked about letting Andrew marry her when they grow up."

Nona blushed even more.

Elisa\'s heart sank. She knew why Mrs. Caffrey had invited her to the villa today.

She didn\'t accept her, and on the contrary, she wanted to stop her from pursuing her son by this young lady.

"You\'re Andrew\'s new girlfriend, Elisa, right? Nice to meet you," Nona greeted her sweetly.

Elisa looked at the girl in front of her and replied with a polite "yes."

She could see Nona\'s ambition to be Mrs. Caffrey\'s daughter-in-law, as well as her jealousy against her.

Nona looked at Elisa up and down and smiled, "You look beautiful today. I hope we can be good friends."

Elisa didn\'t think Nona wanted to be her friend, and maybe what she wanted most was to kick her out of the town. She smiled stiffly and didn\'t say more.

"Elisa, please help yourself. Nona and I are going to entertain the guests." Without more words to Elisa, Mrs. Caffrey took Nona away.

Elisa watched them leave and took a deep breath.

She knew she ought to get out of here, but in this case, she was beaten without a fight.

She didn\'t want to give Andrew up to Nona.

Even if Mrs. Caffrey didn\'t like her, she would try.

"Elisa, I\'m sorry." Mr. Caffery came over, looked at the back of his wife and Nona, and said gently, "Nona is cute and ingratiating. My wife likes her and has been pairing Andrew and her since long ago. If she said something that made you unhappy, please don\'t take it to heart. She never meant any harm. She just hasn\'t known much about you yet."

"It\'s okay, uncle." Elisa felt a little embarrassed and very grateful to him for comforting her.

Then she smiled helplessly.

That Nona was good at pleasing people, how could she win her?

After Mr. Caffrey left to welcome some male guests, Elisa hung out alone in the villa and walked to the back garden, away from the crowd.

She walked along the path and stopped short when she saw a slender figure standing not far ahead.

It was Nona.

Elisa\'s eyelids fluttered. She had a foreboding that this woman was up to no good.

The gentle smile Nona had shown to her at Mrs. Caffrey\'s side was gone, replaced by a provocative look.

"If I were you," she said as she moved to Elisa, "I would leave here myself and never see Andrew again."

Elisa was somehow amused by the big fake.

"I remember when you said you wanted to be my friend in front of Mrs. Caffrey," she replied with a sarcastic smile.

"Don\'t play the fool," Nona snorted and stepped forward. "There are no others here. Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of being Andrew\'s wife? Andrew is just playing around with you. The Caffrey family won\'t accept you. Leave early, and you might impress Andrew a bit!"

"I wonder what if I don\'t leave Andrew?" Elisa folded her arms.

Nona became angry and red-faced. She took one step closer and whispered, "This is Chicago, not your country. I have a thousand ways to make you disappear."

Elisa sneered. A threat?

Reaching out, she grabbed Nona by her collar and said gloomily, "Well, I\'d like to see if you really have all that."

"You bitch! I warn you, leave Andrew!" Elisa screamed and was about to wrestle with her when she saw Mrs. Caffrey coming to the garden out of the corner of her eye.

Her eyes fired up, and suddenly her face changed.

"Please let me go, I have nothing with Andrew. Don\'t hit me!" She murmured miserably with a frightened look.

Elisa frowned and also saw Mrs. Caffrey coming. She realized the reason for Nona\'s sudden change of attitude. But before she could respond, Nona fell to the ground, shrinking back as if she were a monster.

"Nona!" Mrs. Caffrey immediately ran to help Nona up. "Are you okay? What\'s the matter?"

"Mrs. Caffrey, I\'m fine..." Nona sobbed bitterly.

Mrs. Caffrey glanced at Elisa, and her face held a suggestion of anger. "How can you be fine? Is she bullying you?"

Elisa was angered and amused.

Mrs. Caffrey was a real fool. Couldn\'t she tell Nona\'s inconsistency?

Nona shook her head weakly, "No, Mrs. Caffrey. Don\'t get angry yourself. Let\'s go."

Some guests heard the noise and looked over. Mrs. Caffrey couldn\'t say much. She shot Elisa an angry glance before she walked toward the house with Nona.

Nona looked over her shoulder, smiling triumphantly at Elisa.

Elisa was kind, but it didn\'t mean she could still be accommodating and nice when she was set up and misunderstood. Deeply enraged, she rushed over and grabbed Nona, "I didn\'t do anything to you! Just stop and make it clear!"

Nona staggered, screaming, and unconsciously pulled Mrs. Caffrey, who reeled and fell!

"Ah! Mrs. Caffrey! Are you all right?" Nona immediately ran to pick up Mrs. Caffrey. Seeing red marks on her arms, Nona stared at Elisa, crying, "It\'s you! You pushed Mrs. Caffrey down! Somebody!"

***

The hospital

A nurse was treating Mrs. Caffrey\'s wounds in the ward. Mr. Caffrey and Nona stood aside with concern.

Elisa waited outside with her arms folded.

"It\'s okay," Andrew whispered, "It\'s just an accident. Mom won\'t blame you."

Elisa was disturbed. How could Mrs. Caffrey not blame her? She didn\'t like her before, and maybe she hated her even more now.

The door of the ward opened. The nurse came out.

"Come on," Andrew took Elisa by the hand and walked in.

Mrs. Caffrey sat in the hospital bed with her arms wrapped in white gauze. She was not seriously injured, but her face fell as she saw Elisa walking in.

Nona rushed over and pointed at Elisa excitedly.

"Andrew, she pushed Mrs. Caffrey down on purpose! Why did you take her here? Doesn\'t that make your mother even angrier?"
