Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 86

“It’s been ages, hasn’t it? I heard you got married? Who’d you marry, huh? Why’s it all so hush-hush? Don’t tell me your hubby’s someone you can’t bring out in public?”

Delia’s words dripped with malice and smug curiosity.

Of course she didn’t know Anastasia had married Harrison. Anastasia wasn’t the least bit surprised by that—Delia’s family had never been invited to any of the Sterling parties, and Penelope, who did know, always hated to see Anastasia in the spotlight. There was no chance Penelope would let Delia know the truth.

Penelope probably wished everyone thought Anastasia had ended up with some nobody, someone utterly beneath her.

“Running your mouth like that—didn’t your parents ever teach you any manners?” Anastasia shot back, not bothering to hide her disdain.

Delia’s eyes went wide. “What did you just say?”

“I said you’re a brat with no upbringing.”

“You—you dare talk to me like that?!” Delia sputtered, her face flushing with anger.

“Why wouldn’t I?” Anastasia almost laughed. She honestly couldn’t understand where Delia’s sense of superiority came from.

Delia’s father was Nora’s little brother. Back in the day, he’d been so poor he couldn’t afford a wedding, so he’d married into his wife’s family and taken her last name. That’s why Delia didn’t share the Sinclair surname.

The Sinclairs had originally lived in a tiny house out in the sticks. Nora couldn’t even afford school tuition until she met Anastasia’s mother. After they became close friends, the Sterlings’ help turned Nora’s whole family’s fortunes around. They paid off their debts, moved into the city, bought a house and a car. Nora even got a scholarship from Anastasia’s mother to study abroad and came back with a sparkling new degree.
