Chapter 821

Darius's mother could tell from the old Mrs. Foster's unfriendly expression what was on her mind.

She smiled slightly, trying to smooth things over. "Mom, you know Darius is not a reckless child. He must have checked it out before..."

"You can't say that," sneered Madam Gisselle, Darius's aunt. "Our Darius is the CEO of an airline company and used to be on par with Franklin in North Wind Airlines and SouthStar Airlines. How many socialites wanted to marry into our family? Now he brings back a woman with a child... from some backward place like Middle Evroya? I really don't think so."

Madam Karina listened as Madam Gisselle continued her mocking tone and felt angry inside.

Darius was already getting older but still didn't have a girlfriend.

She was excited when he finally brought home a girl - one who even had his granddaughter with her!

Now not only did the old Mrs. Foster disapprove but Madam Gisselle also kept making snide remarks right in front of them.

The more she listened, the angrier she became but couldn't lose her temper in front of everyone.

All she could do was smile awkwardly and try to get Madam Gisselle to stop talking by changing topics, "Hey, Madam Gisselle, I heard your daughter June is dating someone now? A celebrity? Not that I'm saying anything bad about celebrities but they're usually fickle-minded people, right? Our Foster family has such high status; it wouldn't be good for June if she dated someone like that."

Madam Gisselle's face stiffened at this comment but quickly put on a smile again. "June is just playing around; she wants someone better than her brother Darius! How could any celebrity match up?" "Darius has some pretty good friends though. Logan and some young CEOS from his company like Jasper who comes from the Howlett family," said Madam Karina sweetly. "You know Longevity Pharmaceuticals, right? Logan is their CEO."

"I know Mr. Mertens..." replied Madam Giselle awkwardly since she had previously tried introducing herself through intermediaries without success when trying to set up June with Logan before. Madam Karina clearly knows about Logan, but she refuses to say anything else. Madam Gisselle feels uneasy, as if her face has been slapped hard by Madam Karina's words. Logan doesn't even want to see her daughter, and Madam Gisselle hasn't dared to tell anyone in the Foster family about it.
