Yvette froze for a moment and was a little shocked.
Seeing Yvette approaching, the middle-aged woman smiled fondly, stood up, and took Yvette’s hand.
“This must be Yvette, right? She’s so pretty and looks exactly like you back then!”
The woman took Yvette’ 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.
“Mom, don’t scare Ms. Quimbey…”
After Lance reminded his mother, the woman hurriedly let go of Yvette’s hand and apologized.“ Sorry, did I scare
you?”
Yvette hurriedly waved her hands. “No, no. Hello, Auntie.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing Lance’s 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 Lance’s 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 Yvette’s
hands. Now, seeing this scene, Yvette also felt very strange.
Mrs. Quimbey then stood up and smiled as she spoke.
“Yvette, this is my classmate and best friend, your Aunt Fiona. We grew up together. I mentioned her to you before.
Lance needs no introduction. He’s Fiona’s son.”
Yvette nodded with a sudden realization. “Hello, Auntie! I’ve heard a lot about you!” 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. “Quick, have a seat…”
Fiona greeted Yvette as she smiled and sized her up.
“The last time I saw you must have been more than ten years ago. I don’t think you’ll have any memory of it. I just
left the country to convalesce and was gone for more than ten years. Otherwise, I would’ve been able to watch you
grow up…”
Mrs. Quimbey smiled with a rare trace of tranquility on her face.
“Yeah, you have to stay strong and get well soon!” Fiona smiled. “I’ll try!”
Yvette sat next to her mother. As soon as she looked up, she could see Lance’s helpless smile.
She seemed to understand the purpose of this meal.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough she felt slightly uncomfortable, due to all the trouble she caused, Yvette dared not say anything and
cooperated with her mother’s 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
ladies’ plates.
Mrs. Quimbey gave him a satisfied look and said to Fiona, “Lance is so capable at such a young age. My daughter’s
nothing like him. She’s 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 she’s had such smooth sailing so far. Otherwise, with her brains, our family fortune
would’ve been long gone! It’ll be her blessing if she can find a boyfriend as good as Lance.”
Yvette was a little shocked at her mother’s straightforwardness.
