A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust by Sally Garcia

Chapter 214 "Yeah, yeah, yeah, let's eat first. I'm starving! I heard there'd be some good food today, so I made sure to come with an empty stomach," the woman chuckled. "Otherwise, the food would be wasted if it's left unfinished."

Her eyes darted around the room as if it was the first time she'd stepped in the society. She kept saying, "This place looks so fancy! Must've cost a pretty penny, huh? Didn't mean to make you go all out for us!" Yvette, frowning, called out to her mother. "Mom, let's just eat, okay? Anyway, the wedding plans are already in motion. Today's just a chance for everyone to meet and get to know each other."

If it weren't for Eamon insisting on this family meeting, Yvette wouldn't have asked her family over. She had even planned to exclude them from her wedding.

"Alright, I get it. Don't touch me! I'm just excited!" the woman huffed. "By the way, about the wedding gifts, you haven't given us anything yet. Your family has money, right? I'm sure you won't be stingy." "Mom!" Yvette hadn't anticipated her mother bringing this up. Gideon had already given them some money to keep things under wraps, promising that they'd sort out the wedding gifts later.

"Why are you yelling?" the woman snapped at Yvette. "Wedding gifts are something that needs to be settled.
