Done with his words, Hansel also left. After already being scolded by her husband and now blamed by her son, Evelyn almost exploded with anger."What's wrong with both of you? How can you both blame me? Everything I did was for you! None of you understand my intentions! Go ahead, leave—just leave! D
What kind of sincerity are you talking about?" Evelyn gritted her teeth as she asked.The angrier Evelyn got, the more Lucy enjoyed herself."You're eager to settle this quickly and move on; I get it. But my son and I have been in Elgerson for almost two weeks now. We've been staying in the hospital
Two days later, Evelyn indeed received a call from Lucy. However, it wasn't to ask for money."…What did you just say?"Lucy replied, "Take me and my son to that hotel where you and the other wealthy ladies had your gathering last time for afternoon tea. What's the problem?"Evelyn resisted the urge
Two hours later, Lucy and Franklin emerged from the mall, laden with shopping bags.Suddenly, Lucy exclaimed, "Oh no! I forgot to buy a necklace! Come on, let's go back…"With his hands full and legs aching from all the walking, Franklin groaned, "Mom, maybe we should call it a day? We're already ca
Lucy complained a bit more. She didn't understand any of it, so she wasn't interested. What she saw was merely a huge crowd, packed tight."Let's go, let's go, let's get out of here," she urged.Evelyn smirked sarcastically, ready to leave with them, when she suddenly spotted a familiar figure.Mira
As the crowd gradually dispersed, Miranda's group prepared to head to the next exhibit hall. As they turned around, they found themselves face-to-face with Evelyn."Whoa!" Winter said exaggeratedly.Miranda kept her expression neutral and calmly looked away. To her, Evelyn was now just another stran
Miranda quickly linked arms with her mother and said, "Since you're out and about, I wanted to treat you to something special."Mindy chuckled and decided not to spoil the moment. But when Lionel entered and saw the menu, he almost jumped out of his seat."This… this… The cheapest steak is over a hu
After finishing their meal, Winter received a phone call and had to leave first, while Miranda took her parents back home. Despite being tired from a whole day of walking, Lionel remained energetic as he scrolled through the photos on his phone."Let me tell you about this golden enamel plate… and t
Sebastian noticed the look of disappointment in Madison's eyes and suddenly said, "Hey, don't we look like two school kids getting punished by the teacher and made to stand outside the classroom?""You're the one who looks like a school kid," Madison retorted."Then… does that make us childhood swee
"Paul, I apologize." Quincey said. "My mom must've been momentarily possessed or something. She looked uneasy the whole time after we got home. She only confessed once my dad and I noticed something was off. "So, I rushed over to return the bangle. Thankfully, I made it in time. Please help me pass
Paul didn't look particularly surprised when he heard that. He simply said calmly, "Wasn't that the whole point of you giving the gold bangle? Shouldn't you be pleased that Mrs. Jenny showed interest in your gift?""You—" Susan's eyes widened in shock. She was so angry that she couldn't speak. "Pau
"Mom's a woman herself," Lionel said. "She knows more than anyone that the bride will be taken lightly if her family submits to the groom's family even before the wedding happens. "Besides, Leonard and Rena treated her well over the years. They bought her anything she wanted, including gold and sil
Quincey was getting a little impatient while waiting for Jenny at the entrance of Delish restaurant. She kept pressing her phone screen to check the time. "What's taking Mom so long?"Meanwhile, Harold was smoking at the bottom of the steps. He had only gotten through half a cigarette, so he wasn't
"You should go ahead and accept the gift," Susan said. "I prepared them for everyone. They're just little trinkets to wear for fun."Jenny clicked her tongue. A trinket? For fun?Those were truly words worthy of a wealthy lady. It was amazing how generous she was. However, Jenny still had a shred o
Susan remained silent for the rest of the meal. She only concentrated on eating the food in front of her. Jenny, kept in check by Harold, didn't cause any more scenes, either. As the meal was nearing its end, several waiters suddenly entered the private room. Each one was elegantly dressed and wor
"What Mrs. Jenny said earlier made a lot of sense," Paul said. I've taken your words to heart."Then, he turned to Mindy and Lionel. "Please rest assured, Mr. and Mrs. Sutton. I know how lucky I am to have met Miranda. I'll always put her first, cherish her, and take full responsibility as her boyfr
"Mrs. Jefferson, this toast is to welcome you to Lumberville!" Jenny exclaimed. "You should go around and explore while you're here. There's quite a bit of beautiful scenery in this city. "I would also like to thank you for your hospitality. You treated our entire family with such wonderful food an
