He explained the purpose of his visit with an expectant look in his eyes. And, at that moment, he also noticed the things on the table. He had seen them before, and they were for Sawyer.Molly stared at him and said with a soft but hesitant voice, "That's not very appropriate, isn't it?" 'Of course, I can help. But, that has to depend on the occasion.'"It's not appropriate for me to accompany you, isn't it?" Molly said again.No matter how big the party was, it was still a family dinner. The nature and significance of bringing her to this occasion were obviously different. Besides, everyone knew what Sean's mother was up to. If she tagged along to the party, it would give the impression that she was trying to make her presence felt, and Mrs. Anderson would just think that she was a nuisance. Acting as a shield for Sean was going to be a tough job."It's okay. I'll be with you." Sean reassured her.'How is it okay?' Molly subconsciously stared at him. "It's your family party. It
Sean did what he said he would do, and the dresses were delivered in the evening. Along came a woman in a suit, who was the manager in charge of these dresses."Hello, Miss May. My name is Katy. Mr. Anderson has asked us to bring the dresses for you to try on. Shall we get started now?" Katy asked with a smile and a respectful attitude."Okay." Molly agreed straight away.Following immediately, racks after racks of gowns hanging were wheeled in. Not only Molly but the triplets were also stunned. This was the kind of scene that they had only seen on TV."Mommy, hurry up and try on these dresses." The triplets could not wait. They were especially looking forward to what their mother would look like when she came out in those dresses."Go ahead and try it," Sean said with a smile.Molly nodded and followed Katy into a fitting room. "Miss May has a perfect figure. These dresses are all limited edition, so they would not fit everyone. But, it looks just right on you. Those who don't
"I have never seen any woman who can wear a gown so well. Surely only my sister can do that." Brycen did not feel cheeky at all."The red one just now is the best. Mommy has a queenly look." When it comes to the dresses Molly tried on, the triplets could not help but give their opinions."Mommy fits best in that white one, exactly like the princess in the fairy tale. So, when the time comes, why don't you wear that white dress and go out with Uncle?""Wear the first one, the silver one. Don't you guys think that mommy is like a fairy in that one?"Molly listened with amusement while the few of them were discussing among themselves.At that point, Sean was heard saying, "Every single one of them fits. Let's keep them all."'Such a lavish generosity only befits Mr. Anderson.' Brycen could not help but cast a glance at him."Huh? No, no. I just need one. These dresses are not everyday clothes. I can't wear them all even if I want that many." Besides, if she remembered correctly,
"Hello, Sharon." Alice smiled. She was standing in the crowd when she caught a glimpse of Sharon in the corner of her eye. She then excused herself from chatting with the other ladies.Looking at the slender and elegant Sharon appearing in front of her, Alice could not help but break into a smile. "You look gorgeous today. Of all the ladies here tonight, you are the one who shines the brightest." She was in a good mood today, as she made a rare flattery remark.Sharon dropped the hem of the skirt in her left hand and clasped her hands in front with a smile. "Thank you for your compliment, Mrs. Anderson. I could not look more ordinary enough." She showed great humility as she looked at Alice. "I'm happy that you find me appealing."This succeeded in pleasing Alice."Look, what a good girl she is!" Alice smiled and pulled at Ricky beside her.Sharon smiled and handed Ricky the present she had prepared and gave her best wishes. This pleased both of them even more.As they talked, th
Alice didn't look too happy either. She was startled for a moment when she first saw Molly appear.'What does this woman have to do with the Anderson family party? How dare she stick to my son!'Anger surged within her, but she knew that this was a public place. So, Alice had no choice but to fight back her anger and shot a knife-like look at Molly.'If this was my house, there's no way that Molly would be allowed in. Dream on. Don't even think about it.'Sharon was happy to have won the favor of Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, and while she was at it, she saw Molly. Her expression turned grave as if she had been hit in the head. The manicure she had made especially for the party was digging into her palms. Her heart was filled with jealousy. But, she still maintained a dignified and magnanimous look with a smile on her face as she took the initiative to greet Molly with a nod. But, the way Sean and Molly walked together just now caused Sharon's heart to twinge. It hurt so much that she alm
Once the party started, Molly followed Sean every inch of the way, since she did not know where else to go.Many people cast their eyes toward the two of them from time to time. Some women who intended to talk to Sean were hesitant to go forward because of Molly. As this went on for a long time, everyone had formed a perception inside their heads: they must be a couple. The woman was following Sean so closely that with a little use of the brain, one could figure out what this meant. It was to tell people like them not to make a fool of themselves, and that Sean was taken. Everyone in the ballroom was a prominent figure, and no matter how eager they were, no one would not approach Sean, lest people would talk about them behind their backs after they left the hotel. As ladies of prominent families, they had dignities to take care of. As slow-witted as Molly was, she could already tell how people were looking at her just by looking at their faces. She leaned close to Sean and said, "
"Miss May, Mrs. Anderson would like to see you." It was the manager of the hotel who came to deliver the message.'Mrs. Anderson?' Molly lowered her eyes and thought for only two seconds, then stood up and followed the hotel manager out and into the VIP lounge. Alice was looking for her, probably because of Sean."I will be blunt. We, in the Anderson family, will not accept a woman like you." Alice watched the door closed and shot a stern warning at Molly. "Why don't you take a look in the mirror and see what you're made of? I heard you have already had three children. Do you still think you can remarry and become a noble lady of some sort? You should at least ask around which decent family would keep someone like you? My son is distracted momentarily." Alice directed all of her anger for the night at Molly. She could not understand how Molly could be so thick-skinned and follow her son to the party. 'Does she really think that the Anderson family is so easy?'Molly acted as if she
Molly followed Sean to have something to eat, and they went to the small garden outside the hotel for a stroll. Then, they waited until it was almost time, and Molly left with Sean."Won't your parents be upset if we just leave without you staying to help see the guests off?" She did not miss Alice's rancorous expression just now. Especially when Alice's expression had not been well since she saw Molly tonight."No, I would only be kicking my heels if I stay and see the guests off."Molly heard Sean say that before she got the message. Sean was in charge of the Anderson Corporation, and there were countless people who wanted to please him. So, who would dare to ask the titular CEO to stay and see the guests off? Molly laughed at how silly she was.Tony brought the car over, and the two got in together. As the car hit the highway, Molly sensed that something was wrong."The car behind looks like it's been following us since we came out of the hotel." Molly glanced back suspiciously
