Faux Vows, True Desires

Alright, that man did treat Janice unfairly.

From a woman's perspective, Fiona naturally sided with Janice.

It was distressful to see her daughter sandwiched between her parents.

As soon as Keith got off the plane, he spotted his mother from a distance. He planned to stride over to her, but to his surprise, she turned around and walked away with Fiona.

Didn't she miss him after so long?

When he turned to see his father, Keith seemed to understand why his mother had left upon seeing their private jet.

After a moment of silence, Keith waited for his father, not leaving him alone to enter the house.

The arrival of several private jets caused a commotion, waking up many of the people in the house. When they heard that Mr. Blue and Mr. Blue Junior had arrived, they quickly came downstairs. Stefan and his wife were the quickest to react.

By the time Janice and Fiona entered the house, the young couple had already come down from upstairs.

"Mom, dad and Keith are here."

Lucinda was still very happy. Her brother was here, and it happened to be the weekend. She could invite Darlene out and have her brother accompany them. It wouldn't be an intentional matchmaking occasion and she believed neither of them would reject it.

These days, Lucinda and Darlene talked a lot on WhatsApp.

She even created a small group and added Cecilia and Tiffany to it. The women chatted enthusiastically.

Although Tiffany and Cecilia hadn't met Darlene in person, they didn't mind meeting her sometime since they got along well on WhatsApp.

Janice responded with a bland tone.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Lucinda noticed her mother's low spirits, hurriedly walked up to her, affectionately linked arms with her, and asked with concern.

"Nothing, Lucy. I've got up too early and am feeling sleepy again. I'm going upstairs for a nap. After lunch, I'll go with Fiona and her family to the countryside for a while."
