Chapter 102 She Won‘t Let Her Meet Estie That afternoon, Wendy Fuller and her mother invited Melody Bloome to meet at the cafe.

When Melody arrived, the two were already waiting by the window.

“Excuse me for the wait.” Melody sat down opposite the two. Wendy Fuller smiled reassuringly, “Don’t worry, we just arrived, please have a seat. I ordered some desserts, but I don‘t know if it suits your taste. Please help yourself.”

After speaking, she waved to the waiter for service.

Several delicate desserts were placed in front of them.

Aunt Melody smiled reassuringly, “It‘s Wendy who cares about me and knows that I like sweets. Byron has no such heart.” The three of them chatted briefly for a while. Then Magdalene Fuller began casually bringing up news about Rosalie Jacobs as they speak “By the way, when Wendy went to see Old Master Quirke two days ago, she met the woman who divorced Byron six years ago. When did she return to Coast City, do you know?” Melody‘s smile gradually disappeared upon hearing this, “Rosalie Jacobs? How dare she come back? If you hadn’t mentioned it today, I wouldn’t even know about it!”

Back then, the woman handed him a divorce agreement and left without a word. A year later, Estelle was sent back to them because she had no guardian. Madam Bloome couldn‘t help but feel angry over this. How dare she shamelessly come back again?

Magdalene pretended to be surprised, “Oh, you don‘t know? Byron was there when Wendy went that day, and the relationship between the two seems to be pretty good. I thought you were planning to let her go back to take care of Little Estie!”

Melody frowned in displeasure, “Where did she get the audacity to take care of Estie? If I had known earlier, I wouldn‘t even let her see Estie‘s face!”

“That woman was so resolute that she even walked away from her child. Such a cruel woman, I would never let her get close to Estie!‘

Melody Bloome‘s reaction was as expected by the mother–daughter duo. Wendy saw Mrs. Lawrence‘s annoyance and tried to pacify her, “Mrs. Lawrence, don‘t be angry yet. Byron… don‘t mean it that way.”

After speaking, Wendy lowered her eyes in despair, her smile barely visible. The expression on her face was undeniable.

Melody was even more annoyed at Byron from Wendy‘s expression, “What‘s wrong? Did he bully you?”

Wendy hesitated and silently looked at her mother.

Magdalene saw the right chance to defend her daughter, “To tell you the truth, Byron did not attend the last time we had dinner together. I urged Wendy to call him, but he revealed that he wanted to call off the engagement with her. This stupid child didn‘t dare tell us. If I hadn‘t seen her in a bad mood and kept asking her for a few days, I‘m afraid she‘d still be keeping mum about this!”

Magdalene turned around and gave Wendy a crossed look, then turned back again at Madam Bloome, “So, I asked you out today, just to confirm this matter. If you plan to let that woman return to the Lawrence Manor, I will make this silly girl give up as soon as possible.” Wendy Fuller lowered her eyes without a word and looked heartbroken. It was the first time Melody Bloome heard this, and her face sank, “My son has said such things?”

The Fullers didn‘t say a word, it was a tacit agreement. “I see.” Melody Bloome picked up her bag, “Wendy, don‘t you worry. Our two families have already agreed, the daughter–in–law of the Lawrence family will only be you. I would accept nobody else. Rosalie Jacobs would be the least possible of them all!”

Wendy looked up; her eyes full of unease. Melody Bloome’s heart broke from the look on Wendy‘s face, “Don‘t be afraid, I will resolve this matter when I go back.”
