StarNovelChapter 351 I took out my phone and called her.
Was she angry at me? No one picked up the phone even when I tried to call again and again.
At my wit's end, I called Jerome.
When he answered the call, his tone was extremely impatient. "Wanda, I'm very busy now." I chuckled. "What are you busy with?" "I'm busy feeding the baby." Jerome's voice was laced with resentment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI burst out in jesting laughter. "What a difficult position to be in for a manly man like you." "Don't gloat, it'll be your turn soon." Jerwas going crazy.
I nodded. "Gladly." After the playful banter, I asked, "When are you and Cecilia going to cto Whaldorf?" "I don't know," Jerwas being a little vague. "We'll see.
I did not press further. "Why isn't Cecilia answering her phone? What is she up to?" "I don't know what she's up to as well. Erm, I gotta go. The baby is about to cry." Jerhung up right after that. I stared at my phone i n disbelief. Something was not adding up.
However, I did not call to ask in detail and continued to finish up my work.
The next day, I worked extra hard to quickly finish the work on my hands. Matthew sent someone to drive m e to the makeup parlor at around four in the evening.
He had someone custom make a gown for me, and it was a perfect fit. After I was done with my makeup, Matthew cto get me.
The banquet was held in the Nietzsche Mansion.
When we arrived, I looked at the array of luxurious cars parked outside and exclaimed, "I'm a little nervous." I was supposed to be used to banquets like these since I was married to Theo Grant, but unfortunately, I had never attended such events before.
"What are you nervous about?" Matthew looked atand smiled. "I'm here." I smiled and nodded without saying anything else.
Once we got out of the car, I weaved my hand into the crook of Matthew's elbow and we made our way to the venue.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStaff members were standing at the sides of the mansion's gate, and the guests were required to show them their invitation cards.
Matthew did not need an invitation card, so he broughtstraight into the mansion.
There were already tons of people on the first floor, while Nancy was at the center of the hall, conversing with! others. She donned a crimson gown that was exceptionally eye-catching. Those who had just entered the first floor of the banquet hall would definitely not miss her.
She was beautiful. Even though she may have aged, she still looked m exquisitely charming. If she had a better temper, I did not think Marcus If would have fallen for Quinn. Matthew and I walked in her direction. When Nancy saw me, her eyes sparkled. "Matthew, this lady is...?" She clearly did not remember me. I cleared my throat awkwardly.
Matthew was stumped. Then, he introduced us. "Mom, this is Wanda Lane. You've met her before. Have En. you already forgotten about it?" After hearing his words, Nancy remembered who I was and the smile on her face froze.
