Chapter 320

Aurora also chimed in. “Grandma, she couldn’t even properly organize Keegan’s birthday party, yet you’re letting her organize something as important as your birthday banquet? Aren’t we just waiting to embarrass ourselves at the birthday banquet?”

Keegan’s expression darkened. “Are you in the place to interrupt when the elders are speaking? Do you not remember your manners?”

Aurora was speechless for a moment. Then, she glared at Stella before she kept her mouth shut in anger.

Meanwhile, Stella did not dare to speak at all.

‘I minded my own business, and disaster still fell upon me out of nowhere. This isn’t a good thing for me at all. The old lady is really smart. Since they’re both her daughters-in-law, no matter who she chooses, they’ll feel unsatisfied, and she’ll be labeled as biased. How could she choose when they were even directly questioning her? Naturally, she chose to not offend both sides and threw the hot potato into my hands,’ she thought.

“Didn’t you two also used to be young? Young people need to be given more opportunities to gain experience. Nobody’s born a know-it-all. What do you say, Stella? Do you want to do it?”

Cordelia turned to Stella.

While those were Cordelia’s words, her eyes seemed to say, “I dare you to say no.”

Stella was not remotely prepared for this. She was torn between agreeing and refusing. After a while, she finally said, “Grandma, I’m worried that I won’t do a good job.”

“Youngsters shouldn’t be worried about making mistakes. You need to keep making mistakes to know how to do things the right way. If you don’t know how to do something, learn how to do it. You can ask your mother-in-law or your Aunt Cyrene if you don’t know anything. They’ll be happy to teach you.”

Cyrene knew from Cordelia’s attitude that she did not stand a chance of being the organizer for this year’s birthday banquet.

She glanced at Dahlia, who had an expression more unpleasant than her own.

Suddenly, Cyrene felt a little better.

‘I didn’t get it, and neither did Dahlia. The old lady would rather let Stella do it than her first. daughter-

in-law. Therefore, Dahlia’s status in the old lady’s heart isn’t much higher than mine. Besides, now that Stella’s the organizer, Dahlia won’t let things go smoothly even if I didn’t intervene,’ she thought.

At that thought, Cyrene said, “How can we not teach her when you’ve already put it this way? Since the kids are all grown up, we should indeed let go of some things we’re supposed to. Stella, you can ask me anything you don’t know. If you need someone to run errands, you can ask Jackson. The ultimate goal is to make the birthday banquet a success.”

Jackson smiled. “I’ll be at your disposal, Stella.”

Since Dahlia and her family had taken their stance, Dahlia’s intentions would be made evident. if she continued to disagree.

‘I guarded against Chandler’s family, but I never imagined that the opportunity I had in hand would fall into Stella’s,’ thought Dahlia.
