Chapter 118
Millie glanced at Lara’s bandaged knee and said with a faint smile, “Miss Yerkes, you also have good skin. Just keep taking good care of it.”
That said, she looked at Marcus, her face spreading into a bright smile.
“Honey, let’s go.”
Millie didn’t think she could take being stared at so blatantly anymore. It made her squirm, and she didn’t like the feeling. Marcus frowned at Millie. That word again; honey.
Once again, she was using him. He swallowed his resentment and said, “You should all go on and have a good time. We'll leave first.”
He held Millie’s hand in his and led her towards the exit. In no time, they were out of the hall.
Meanwhile, Madison was seething with anger. She had to admit that they made a perfect couple. How could that ugly girl suddenly turn into a beauty?
Now, how was she to mock Celeste?
“Madison, why are you talking to yourself? You don’t look happy. Who pissed you off?” Celeste asked casually, walking over with renewed confidence. Now, she could boast and stare down at Madison who hadn’t stopped mocking her.
Madison's face darkened. She suppressed the frustration she felt and retorted coldly, “Don’t be so proud now just because your daughter-in-law has suddenly become beautiful. My son’s fiancée is not only beautiful, but is also a refined lady.
She’s much more noble than that mannerless girl.”
“Come to think of it, Miss Rayne has been engaged to Leon for so many years already. Why aren’t they married? Are there any problems we're not aware of?”
Celeste responded wittily, earning a stink eye from Madison.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
“What nonsense are you spouting again? Leon and Miss Rayne love each other very much. Rest assured, they will soon get married.”
Not far away, Lois stood quietly, looking both elegant and graceful. Celeste glanced at her, thoughts flashing through her mind.
Lois and Leon had an engagement ceremony three years ago. But till date, no wedding plans had been discussed. What made it seem more strange was the fact that Leon didn’t even act like he wanted to get married.
“Really? You should put it together fast before | become a grandmother,” Celeste said provokingly, hitting Madison right where it hurt. ©
Madison couldn't share this, but she had been on Leon’s back for a long time, asking him to get on with the wedding already, and give her grandchildren.
However, all her words fell on deaf ears. Leon repeatedly told her off, claiming that there was no need to rush things.
That was it. Her night was officially ruined. Madison gritted her teeth and left before she made a fool of herself.
