Chapter 370

Haley noticed Nancy didn’t take the tissue she offered and calmly retracted her hand. Once, she was Haley Owens, a young lady from a second–rate rich family. Even as the girlfriend of that old woman’s younger son, she had been on the receiving end of the older woman’s condescension.

Now, she stood proudly as the fiancée of the eldest son from the Janssen family, facing this old woman, and yet, Nancy still treated her with disdain.

Maybe seeing Quinlee reminded her of Nathan, or it could be that she was frustrated about her younger son’s future. Either way, Nancy wasn’t in a good mood, or her expression showed it.
