Nicolette refused to let Candace get away with her snide comment. I invited Gwen to my party, and I won't let anyone bully her.

Nicolette asked, “Aunt Candace, when is your daughter coming? Did she claim she was busy because she didn't want to give me a present?”

She changed the conversation topic to divert attention from Gwendolyn's affairs.

She had been too young to understand what had happened back then. Over the years, she pieced things together from gossip by the other Ashton family members. Nicolette learned the Ashtons kicked Gwendolyn out of the house over her teenage pregnancy. Her elder cousin went missing shortly after that.

Nicolette would have remained in the dark if her mother had not mentioned Gwendolyn's return. She and Francine tracked Gwendolyn down and invited her to the party.

Nicolette had been ecstatic to see Gwendolyn again. She missed the latter dearly over the years.

Meanwhile, Candace eyed her husband, whose displeasure was palpable. She had spent years badmouthing Gwendolyn, ensuring his support for her and Felicia.

Zachary firmly believed that Gwendolyn was a shame to him and the Ashton family. He would never help her out of such an awkward situation.
