As a woman from a humble background, Angela Reid could only accept fate—whatever was meant for her daughter would be, and what was not could not be forced. She could only let nature take its course.
In the car, Emily Walker maintained a solemn face, reflecting on everything that had happened at the Stuart Manor.
“Are you hungry?” Seeing that she wasn’t speaking, Baron Stuart asked.
Raising her head in response to the sound, Emily realized she hadn’t eaten much earlier and was indeed hungry.
She nodded her head and gave a gentle hum of agreement.
The car stopped in front of a French restaurant, and Emily got out first.
“Wait for me here.” After saying this, Baron Stuart drove the car to the underground parking lot, while Emily waited at the restaurant entrance.
She finally understood why Baron Stuart kept saying he didn’t want to be the third wheel. By bringing her to his home, he was trying to tell others that he planned to cancel his engagement to Camila Walker, or even… introduce Emily to others as his girlfriend.
Everything felt like a dream, too unrealistic to be true.
Did he suddenly break off the engagement for her?
Did it mean she was… snatching away someone else’s love?
“Leanne, I’m telling you, today’s guest is a big boss. You need to fight for me, and help Mom find herself a golden son-in-law!”
While Emily was lost in thought, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in her ear.
Upon hearing the sound, she looked and saw Elia Parker and her daughter alighting from their bridge car.
“Mom, I’m just warning you, if we’re dining again with an old geezer like last time, I’ll turn around and leave immediately.” Iris Carter said arrogantly.
Elia Parker guaranteed, adjusting her daughter’s clothes, “Don’t worry, our guest this time isn’t an old man. He’s only 32 years old, a very young fellow, I assure you, you’ll like him!”
The mother and daughter were already heading towards the grand entrance of the restaurant, and upon raising their eyes, they spotted Emily.
Emily, seeing the mother and daughter, wore a contemptuous expression.
The duo seemed to never change, still scheming on how to catch a golden son-in-law.
It was probably Emily’s appearance tonight that made Elia Parker not recognize her at first. When Iris Carter passed Emily, she stopped in suspicion and turned her head to look at the stunning woman.
“Emily Walker?” Iris was not sure if the woman was Emily or not, as it was unclear in the darkness. However, she appeared familiar, and even her figure and height were similar to Emily’s.
Emily didn’t plan to pay attention to her, but when she unexpectedly called her name, she turned slowly to face the mother and daughter.
As she turned, their eyes widened in surprise, especially Iris, who couldn’t believe the woman in front of her was Emily.
Back at home, she seemed to be an ordinary person.
“Is it really you?” Iris frowned in disbelief, jealousy welling up in her heart.
“What do you want?” Emily replied coldly, looking expressionless as she stared at them.
The mother and daughter examined her from head to toe and estimated that her outfit would have cost tens of thousands. How did she suddenly become so wealthy?
“How are you here?” This French restaurant wasn’t a place ordinary people could walk into, and Iris couldn’t help but wonder if Emily was being kept by a tycoon. How else could she be wearing such splendor suddenly?
Hearing that, Emily couldn’t help but find it amusing. Was it so strange that she was here?
