A lady, who was acquainted with Mrs. Chambers, came towards them at this point, started flattering her by complimenting Tommy.
âHelena, how lucky you are for having such a beautiful daughter-in-law and an adorable grandson! I am really jealous of you for having everything.
My son only focuses on his career and doesnât even have a girlfriend.â A lady dressed in elegant outfit remarked.
Mr. Chambers replied with a smile, âLily, youâre being jealous by saying those words. I have heard that Jessica gets pregnant and you will become a grandmother after a few months.â
The lady showed a much more sincere smile. âJessica has visited lots of traditional Chinese doctors and eaten lots of Chinese medicines to carry the baby. My tense nerve finally loosens up when learning the news that she gets pregnant. Now the only thing I am worried about is my son. I donât know when he can settle down and have a girlfriend. I am really worried about him. If he could be half-like Zach to be considerate and have a beautiful and filial wife, I wonât chatter every day.â
âThere is no need for us parents to worry about our childrenâs marriage. Itâs better for us to let nature take its course. Your son will naturally want to get married when he meets the right person. Take it easy.â
âWe could only do that. Well, I really like Tommy. Let me hug him. What an adorable baby! I wish to offer all the good stuff in the world to him when he stares at me.â The lady hugged Tommy carefully and continued complimenting him.
The hall showed a harmonious atmosphere when discussing about Tommy. However, when seeing the group of people came to the hall, the warm atmosphere suddenly turned weird.
Mrs. Chambers, who was teasing with Tommy, suddenly showed a terrible expression when seeing them. However, because other people were still present, she hurriedly adjusted her facial expression.
Mrs. Chambers remarked, âLily, I have told the cook to invent some cakes with different flavours. I can show you around to have a taste. You can try whether they suit your appetite or not. If you like, I will talk to the servants to pack you some.â
The other ladies also knew what she meant to make them away. Anyway, the Fletcher family was coming. Everyone had witnessed the unfinished wedding of Cora and Zachariah five years ago. Coraâs fled made the Chambers family became the joke in the upper class within one night. Although Zachariah married Ophelia in a short time later, the upper class still made fun of their marriage. Therefore, despite the Fletcher family and Chambers family seemed to be harmonious on the surface, there was a subtle relation between Cora and Zachariah. No man could bare the shame for a girl to escape before marriage.
âThen we have to try some. We will discuss with the cook if the cakes are delicious.â The lady called Lily said with a smile. Other ladies also agreed with her and left.
Mrs. Chambers held Tommy. She turned around and told Zachariah, âZach, bring Ophelia to meet guests on the other side. I will handle with the Fletcher family. There is no need for you to show up to avoid Cora from misbehaviour. In that case, everyone will be embarrassed.â
Zachariah put arms around Ophelia and replied, âMom, I will visit uncle Matthew with her. He just returned from abroad yesterday. He has never met Ophelia during our five yearsâ marriage. He stressed on the phone yesterday to let me introduce Ophelia t him.â
Mrs. Chambers nodded and remarked, âOff you go.â
Zachariah encircled Opheliaâs waist and let her to the other side, while Madeleine decided to stay by Mrs. Chambersâ side.
âAunt, I will sew their mouths if they donât show you respect.â Madeleine made a funny posture and remarked seriously.
Mrs. Chambers smiled. However, when seeing the people showed up behind Mr. Fletcher, her expression got a bit frozen.
Madeleine also noticed the change on her expression and asked carefully, âAunt, whatâs wrong?â
Mrs. Chambers soon tidied her mood and answered with a smile, âNothing.â
Madeleine didnât say anything. Even when seeing Savannah was holding Coraâs arm, she only raised her eyebrows disdainfully.
Savannah was challenging Opheliaâs endurance on her in public. Madeleine wouldnât be sure how would Zachariah react in the past. However, judging from Zachariahâs love on Ophelia, it was time for him to express his standing when seeing his own sister got so close with his past lover. He shouldnât pretend he didnât see anything to let Ophelia get bullied by her sister-in-law in the Chambers family.
Madeleine thought both Savannah and Cora were good at doing terrible things. No wonder they would become best friends. Just as a saying goes, âBirds of a feather flock togetherâ. Both of them were self-centred and they were deemed to be friends.
Madeleine really despised Savannahâs foolish behaviour. However, Madeleine was also smart to hide her feeling.
Mrs. Chambers brought Tommy in front of the Fletcher family and asked, âBradwen, what are you doing here?â
Mr. Fletcher showed an awkward expression. After all, the Chambers family didnât invite the Fletcher family to join Tommyâs first month party, which indirectly expressed the Chambers family meant to distant their relation.
âHelena, what are you taking about? Tommy turns one month old today and our two family have been friends for years. Why canât we come here to celebrate?â Mrs. Fletcher glanced at Tommy in Mrs. Chambers arms and continued talking in a weird tone, âWell, thatâs Tommy. I was curious about what he looked like. Well, just an average boy.â
Mrs. Chambersâ expression changed and was about to get angry.

The Vixen's Man ï¤15 Madeleine touched her arm and remarked harshly, âMrs. Fletcher, I originally thought we have already tidied your dirty mouth. Now it seems you didnât. Well, the air gets so smelly after you starts talking, which directly put you in the lowest level. Even a young girl like me canât stand your speech.
Well, itâs really sorry for you to be a lady. How are you going to talk with other ladies by having such a smelly mouth?â
Madeleine wrote novels as a career and was good at satirizing others.
Suddenly, Mrs. Fletcher showed a terrible expression.
