Chapter: 788

That was why he took Rhoda to Lunch.

“Madeline is pregnant and she fainted. It's serious," Rhoda said, her voice full of concern.

She wanted to be there for Madeline.

Coen suppressed his emotions and said, “She's getting married. To ensure she's respected by the Carter family, we need this collaboration to go smoothly."

Rhoda wiped her tears and nodded, saying, "Yes, you're right."

For a married woman, her situation often depended on her parents ' influence. After there was no that a man would all, guarantee treat his wife the same after marriage.

"Come on, let's focus on the collaboration. No more tears."

In a private room.

“Phillip mentioned that Alice had already eaten and won't be joining us."

"Okay."

"Norah, what do you think they'll choose, Madeline or the collaboration?"

As Susanna poured tea, she said, “I think they'll go for the collaboration, Just by looking at Madeline, I can tell her parents aren't good people."

Although she had never met them before, she could sense their ill intentions when she met Coen's eyes.

Norah took a sip of tea. She had been talking so much during the event that she hadn't even had a chance to drink anything.

“Whatever they choose."

“But I feel like they don't like you. Have you met them before?"

On the way here, Sean heard from Susanna what had just happened. It involved Derek again.

He couldn't understand why Norah always encountered people related to him.

Norah pursed her lips and set down her teacup. “They're Madeline's parents. We've met before."

Norah had bumped into Madeline's parents by chance once before. Today, she happened to run into them again.

"Sean, you can't imagine how unpleasant that man looked at both me and Norah. If it weren't for my ladylike manners, I would have given him a piece of my mind long ago."

"Seriously? What would you say?"

Susanna rested her head on her fingers and replied, "I'd curse them to gain ten pounds. No, make it twenty."

Norah and Sean glanced at each other, barely able to contain their laughter. Even when Susanna cursed, she was still adorable.
