Daisy replied. “Oh, I see. Then what about the day after tomorrow? Surely you’ll have time then!”

Daisy giggled and linked arms with Thalia, saying, “I’ll pick you up in the morning. It’s settled then! Aunt Thalia, no backing out!”

She quickly tried to slip away after saying this, not giving Thalia chance to refuse. Jeffrey often used the same tactic and found it almost always worked.

But Thalia was no longer one to fall for these tricks. She immediately replied coldly, “I’m busy the day after tomorrow too. Go have fun on your own.”

“Aunt Thalia…” Daisy’s eyes darted about, and she suddenly thought of today’s news.

She put on a facade of fake concern.

She said, “Aunt Thalia, we’re going to Sanctuary Mountain. Wouldn’t you like to make a wish for Tiffany? What if the news proves accurate and she gets abandoned after her wedding?”

Thalia stayed silent.

This struck a nerve for Thalia. No mother would ever want anything bad for her daughter.

In the end, she gave in. “Fine.”

Daisy smiled. “I’ll come pick you up first thing in the morning!”

Having fulfilled her father’s request, Daisy didn’t linger and left, feeling pleased.

After she left, a maid whispered cautiously, “Mrs. Kelley, why do your family members behave in such a manner? They’re really manipulative.”

They weren’t just manipulative. They were basically forcing people into corners.

Their domineering approach had left Thalia with no choice at all.

Thalia shook her head, her expression clouded with annoyance.

That evening, Tiffany had just finished her bath and was lounging on a chaise, applying hand cream.

Her phone lit up with a new message from June, saying: [Ms. Kelley, Daisy has invited your mother to hike Sanctuary Mountain the day after tomorrow.]
