Yvette froze for a moment and was a little shocked.
Seeing Yvette approaching, the middle-aged woman smiled fondly, stood up, and took Yvetteâs hand.
âThis must be Yvette, right? Sheâs so pretty and looks exactly like you back then!â
The woman took Yvetteâ s hand affectionately and sized Yvette up. Her eyes were filled with fondness.
Yvette was dumbfounded. Lance, who looked mature and steady at the side, stood up with a rather
helpless look.
âMom, donât scare Ms. Quimbeyâ¦â
After Lance reminded his mother, the woman hurriedly let go of Yvetteâs hand and apologized.â Sorry,
did I scare you?â
Yvette hurriedly waved her hands. âNo, no. Hello, Auntie.â
Hearing Lanceâs words, Yvette knew that this woman was his mother.
Yvette had not heard of her before, let alone seen her.
Back when Mrs. Quimbey matchmade Lance and Yvette, Yvette had never met Lanceâs family. Yvette
thought Lance did not want to continue the marriage and was only superficially agreeing to it. However,
she never understood why Lance would do that. The Sheldon family was very influential and dominant
in Central Mediania especially after Nicole took down Harrison Corporation. Almost all women would
pursue this kind of man with an ultimate purpose, so why would Lance be so obedient to get engaged
with Yvette? All the initiative was in Yvetteâs hands. Now, seeing this scene, Yvette also felt very
strange.
Mrs. Quimbey then stood up and smiled as she spoke.
âYvette, this is my classmate and best friend, your Aunt Fiona. We grew up together. I mentioned her to
you before. Lance needs no introduction. Heâs Fionaâs son.â
Yvette nodded with a sudden realization. âHello, Auntie! Iâve heard a lot about you!â No wonder!
Mrs. Quimbey usually did not have any friends. Her life was filled with only work and social
engagements. However, Yvette knew that her mother had a best friend who would call from time to
time, but Yvette had never seen Fiona because Mrs. Quimbey was too busy. Their schedules were
always staggered. Thinking of this, it seemed as if Yvette had found the source of why Lance was so
compliant with this marriage. âQuick, have a seatâ¦â
Fiona greeted Yvette as she smiled and sized her up.
âThe last time I saw you must have been more than ten years ago. I donât think youâll have any memory
of it. I just left the country to convalesce and was gone for more than ten years. Otherwise, I wouldâve
been able to watch you grow upâ¦â
Mrs. Quimbey smiled with a rare trace of tranquility on her face.
âYeah, you have to stay strong and get well soon!â Fiona smiled. âIâll try!â
Yvette sat next to her mother. As soon as she looked up, she could see Lanceâs helpless smile.
She seemed to understand the purpose of this meal.
Although she felt slightly uncomfortable, due to all the trouble she caused, Yvette dared not say
anything and cooperated with her motherâs quips. The atmosphere soon became lively.
Lance did not speak much and only added a remark occasionally. He was almost always taking care of
the three ladiesâ plates.
Mrs. Quimbey gave him a satisfied look and said to Fiona, âLance is so capable at such a young age.
My daughterâs nothing like him. Sheâs pampered and grew up in a privileged position. All she does is
create trouble and spend money. The good thing is that she has a good eye for making friends. Ian
Carter and the Stanton kids are all willing to help her, which is why sheâs had such smooth sailing so
far. Otherwise, with her brains, our family fortune wouldâve been long gone! Itâll be her blessing if she
can find a boyfriend as good as Lance.â
Yvette was a little shocked at her motherâs straightforwardness.
This topic and purpose were way too obvious!
