Chapter 463 How Should I End Tonight without Losing Our Reputation!
Margot looked at the caller ID showing up on her smartphone screen. Her eyes were devoid of the usual gentleness and love. She pursed her lips tightly and picked up the phone with a bit of anger.
âMom, my brother and I have arrived at the hotel.â Yvonneâs voice was soft and sweet. âWe just went to the banquet hall. But we didnât see you and Dad. Did you arrive at the hotel? Where are you now?â
Thinking that Yvonne had caused all the troubles of tonight, Margot couldnât help but feel angry. She took a deep breath and said, âIâm in the lobby with your father.â
âIn the lobby? We are in the lobby now. Why didnât I see you guys? My brother and I will be right over!â
Yvonne hung up the phone.
Looking at Margotâs expression at the moment, Patrick hesitated and sighed, âMargot, when you see Yvonne later, you shouldnât be too harsh⦠There must be a reason for her to do so. Letâs hear what she says first.â
Margot pursed her lips and didnât say anything with a sullen face.
A moment laterâ¦
âDad, Mom!â After seeing them, Yvonne walked over to them. She reached out to hold Margotâs arm, as she usually did, and said affectionately, âWhat are you doing here?â
âHello, Mr. Swift and Mrs. Swift.â The two best friends of Yvonne greeted Margot and Patrick politely.
Margot nodded lightly at them.
âPatrick, take Yvonneâs friends there first. Take care of the girls. Yvonne and I will come over later.â
Margotâs voice was a bit chilly. And she didnât touch Yvonneâs head like she usually did. Yvonne sensed something was wrong almost immediately. She held her head to look at Margot with some surprise.
Nathan also felt it was weird. He looked up at Margot with his long, narrow, dark eyes.
There was not a smile on Margotâs face. Her expression was sullen. She looked very different from usual.
âSure. Thatâs okay.â Patrick nodded, then greeted Nathan, âLetâs go over first.â
Even Yvonneâs two friends felt that the atmosphere was weird.
Today was Yvonneâs birthday.
But Yvonneâs parents didnât look happy at all. In particular, her mom had a cold face.
It was really strange.
Patrick took the other away.
Yvonne called out with some anxiety, âMom, is there something you want to tell me?â
Margot had purposely asked the others to leave and let her stay.
So, she must have something to say to her.
Margot turned her head. Looking at her daughterâs perfect and obedient look, she did not have the usual gentleness in her eyes. Her gaze was filled with suppressed anger. She questioned coldly, âWhy did you lie to me and your father?â
Yvonne froze instantly. Her heart did a complete somersault. She blinked and replied, âMom, what are you⦠What are you talking about?â
Margot yanked her hand away and said angrily, âYour father and I are so embarrassed because of you.
Why did you lie to us and tell us that the Young Master Lambert is close to you and will come to your birthday dinner tonight?â
Yvonneâs expression suddenly changed. Her eyes widened in shock.
âMom, youâ¦â
She hadnât said anything yet. The birthday party tonight hadnât even officially started yet. How could Margot find outâ¦
âYou want to ask how did I know? Your father and I met the Young Master Lambert youâve mentioned.
He told us.â Margotâs expression was terrible when she spoke of this, âDo you know how your father and I were mocked?â
âWhy did you lie?â Margot said angrily, âDo you know how many people I invited tonight? Do you know how many of these people came here for the sake of Young Master Lambert? How should I end tonight without losing our reputation!â
