Chapter 231: The next day, at the Stevens family residence.

What is Keanu trying to pull? Lindy seethed, her voice sharp as she slammed the guest list onto the table.

Is he deliberately humiliating me? Its his 80th birthday, and I, his rightful daughter-in-law, am not even on the guest list! Meanwhile, hes tacitly allowing your father to bring that homewrecker and his illegitimate son to the celebration.

Even Allison was invited! Rage bubbled inside her as she gripped the wine glass too tightly, flinging it across the room where it shattered into pieces.

Ignoring the pain in her hand, she rubbed her temples, the headache building as fury clouded her vision.

Colton, your grandfather is intentionally ignoring us.

The thought of the financial support Melanys parents still hadnt provided set Lindys temper ablaze.
