Chapter 268

Mr. Delaney's grand 70th birthday bash was the talk of the town, especially since Mr. Hackett himself had agreed to attend. When word spread that the Delaney family had managed such a feat, the guest list grew considerably.

The men gathered to discuss future business ventures, while the women clustered together to indulge in the latest gossip.

Feeling triumphant, Rachel shot Lorna a smug look, which Lorna chose to ignore, continuing her warm engagement with the guests. Someone whispered to her, "Did you know?
