Chapter39
That was no different from embarrassing Seymour.
But Roger pursed his lips and said indifferently, “Sey won’t be mad at me. Even if he’s angry, he’s angry with Felicia.”
He believed that he and Seymour would be good friends forever.
Besides, he thought he said all those words for Seymour’s own good. He didn’t wanna see Seymour be burdened by Felicia.
Esteban lectured Roger, “Roger, no matter what, Felicia is still your sister in the eyes of the others. If you humiliate her, you’ll also bring humiliation to the whole Pruitt family. You’re almost thirty. Is it really that hard for you to understand it?
“I don’t care what you do to her in private. But in front of others, you must act as Felicia’s family, even if you pretend it! I don’t wanna hear others discussing our family’s affairs anymore, understand?”
Roger lowered his eyes and replied in a lower voice, “Understand.”
But deep down, he was still unwilling to accept it and blamed Felicia for
all this.
On the other hand, right after Seymour got in the car, he called his assistant, instructing, “I need you to find a man’s full information for me.”
What Roger said earlier about the divorce really made Seymour’s heart sink.
Seymour knew Felicia had been secretly preparing something recently, but he didn’t take it very seriously.
He always believed that Felicia would come back to him sooner or later.
He thought the only problem he had was Ambrose’s matters, and he believed that those matters would be perfectly solved after Felicia came back.
Felicia indeed told him firmly that she wouldn’t come back, but he also firmly believed that she wouldn’t divorce him.
Felicia couldn’t bear to leave Ambrose, and she wouldn’t let Mina lose her dad. Seymour believed that Felicia still loved him.
However, he had never expected that Felicia would actually find herself at lawyer.
Seymour had to find out what was going on, or he couldn’t rest assured.
On the other hand, Yvonne had no idea what problem Seymour was facing.
Pamela Balchin and Veronica Aykroyd would come to the Lucero’s villa for a visit today.
Pamela said to Yvonne with a smile. “Mrs. Lucero, I’ve heard that your daughter–in–law had a baby again, and it’s a girl, right?”
Yvonne replied indifferently, “Yeah. It’s a girl.”
“Well, you’re such a lucky woman, Mrs. Lucero, You have both a grandson and a granddaughter now. By the way, your granddaughter is about to be a month old, right? You must invite us to this little girl’s baby shower!”
Yvonne’s heart somehow skipped a beat when she heard these words.
She thought about it, and Minerva was indeed about to get a month old.
Then, she lowered her eyes and said with a smile, “Of course. You must make your time to come then.”
At this time. Pamela looked at the time and murmured, “What happened to Mrs. Aykroyd? Why hasn’t she come yet?”
Yvonne chuckled. “Maybe she got stuck on the road. It’s OK. Come on. Try this dessert. It’s our chef’s new work.”
Pamela smiled and sent that dessert to her mouth with the fork. After taking a bite, she commented. “Well, not bad. It tastes sweet but not cloying.”
Just as her words fell, a burst of laughter came from afar. “Mrs. Balchin, you still love sweets as always.”
“Oh. Mrs. Aykroyd, you’re late. I shall think about how to punish you now.”
Veronica chuckled, “How about making me lose to you at cards tomorrow?”
With that, she looked at Yvonne and explained apologetically, “I was delayed by the heavy traffic on the way here. Sorry, Mrs. Lucero. My husband just went to attend the Galvan family’s banquet. If I had known it, I wouldn’t have taken his car.”
“The Galvan family’s banquet? What banquet? Can you tell me something about it?” Pamela asked curiously. about it?” Pamela as
“Well, it’s some kind of graduation banquet. My husband took some photos of it. Wait a second.”
With that, Veronica took out her phone and showed them the photos. “Here. Look at it. It says it’s Sir Galvan’s granddaughter’s graduation banquet.”
Pamela nodded slightly and remarked. “Sir Galvan’s granddaughter is 18 now How time flies. Oh, look. Someone’s also having a baby shower for a full–month baby. Minerva? That’s a lovely name.
Yvonne’s hand subconsciously trembled when she heard this, causing the coffee in her hand to spill out.
She hurriedly said, “Let me take a closer look at it, Mrs. Balchin!”
Pamela looked at Yvonne with a puzzled face. “OK. But Mrs. Lucero, do you know her? You look quite excited.”
Yvonne just suddenly remembered that “Minerva” happened to be the name of Felicia’s newborn baby.
She stared at the photo, feeling shocked in her heart.
Meanwhile, she couldn’t help but think. “Is this a coincidence?”
