Chapter 820: If Kelly Could Marry Jared

Vivienne's hand, which had been massaging her temples, suddenly froze. She abruptly looked up, her gaze locking onto Kelly, who was walking toward her.

Kelly, having just returned from the hospital, had regained her radiant complexion-fair with a healthy flush, an appearance so stunning it captivated anyone who saw her. It was no surprise; after all, she had inherited Vivienne's beauty and charm.

In the hidden circles of their family, there were countless men who had fallen for Kelly's allure. However, none of them ever met Vivienne's standards. She always believed her daughter deserved to be paired with the most outstanding man in the world.

Before, it had been Carl..

Now, she considered shifting her sights to Jared. That didn't seem like a bad idea.

"Mom, what are you thinking about?" Kelly plopped into the seat Victor had just vacated, her face filled with dissatisfaction. "If only I could get close to Jared. That b Tina is glued to him all day. I have no way to make a move!" "That's because you're not clever enough!" Vivienne's sharp eyes flickered as she glanced at her daughter but said nothing more. "Don't worry. This time, with my help, Jared will definitely fall for you." Kelly pouted, unconvinced at first, but when she heard Vivienne promise to help her, her eyes lit up. "Really, Mom?! You better not be lying to me. If I succeed, I'll take care of Uncle's problem for you!"

Vivienne had been waiting for those very words. A satisfied smile stretched across her face, though it quickly faded into a more motherly expression. She lovingly ruffled Kelly's hair. "I'm your mother-how could I lie to you? Besides, do you really think you'll need to say anything to Jared on my behalf? Once you're with him and have the Farrell family's support, that country bumpkin Tina will be nothing. The Bailey family can crush her with ease."

At a teahouse.

Tina stepped into a private room, glanced at the person sitting across from her, and pulled out a chair to sit down. "Mr. Bailey, shouldn't you be busy restoring your mother's gravestone? How do you have the time to meet with me?" Victor's expression darkened. At the mention of his mother's grave, the air in the room instantly grew heavy, almost suffocating.
