Chapter 87

Carole was brazenly bringing her daughter her for humiliation.

Elaine’s disdain was barely concealed as she faintly ushered Carole, along with Nanson and Anthea inside.

“Carole and Nanson have come over.”

Speaking of which, Felton and Gemma were quite an interesting pair of parents.

Among their five children, their favorite was undoubtedly their second son, Saul.

Elaine had married well, which meant she could help out her family financially.

Indeed, Elaine wielded considerable influence in the Yeager family and her say was nearly law which all matters.

Even Saul, the favored son, played second fiddle to Elaine.
