Chapter

"No. I can't let them have their way." Lynette gripped her knuckles while viciousness filled her eyes. "Although I can't do anything to Sonia, I don't need to worry about the consequences if it is the Acree Family."

Listening to her words, Amelia looked at her in horror. "What are you trying to do, Lynette?"

"Don't worry, Mom. Don't the Acrees want to be in-laws with Toby's family? Well then, I will make them give up on this thought. Toby is mine, and no one can take him away from him. Just wait, Mom. On the banquet day, the Acrees won't dare do anything." Lynette smiled wickedly.

After finishing her words, she ignored Amelia and went up the stairs.

Then, she immediately took out her phone and searched for a phone number. It was a set of numbers that she had always seen when she was aboard, and she had engraved it in her soul. As she found the phone number, she swiped it gently before taking a deep breath and dialing it.

While waiting for the call to be picked up, her heart was thumping wildly, and her face was red. At this moment, her face was not eerie anymore, and she looked cute and shy.

Right now, Lynette looked shy and nervous as if she was calling the person she loved in secret.

In fact, she was indeed calling the person she loved. It had been seven years since she last saw her sweetheart, so she was subconsciously nervous when contacting him now. Moreover, she was slightly timid and afraid. How am I going to tell Toby about this? Will he even answer my call?

As she thought about it, she bit her lips, her heart filled with nervousness.
