Chapter 247

After making up her mind, Felicity quickly reached out and snagged her phone from the coffee table.

Swiping the answer button, she spoke without waiting for Rhonda to do so. “Ronni, I'm having a party at home today. Would you like to come over and join me? After all, you're now the mistress of the Luther family, so some socializing is a necessary evil.”

On the other end of the phone, Rhonda was slightly startled.

I wonder if the old biddy has gone crazy. Otherwise, why would her attitude toward me do a one-eighty out of the blue?

However, on second thought, understanding dawned upon her.

She's probably repulsed by that b*tch from the Shurmer family, so she's frantic to get me over to knock Zoey down a peg or two, embarrassing and humiliating her.

“I phoned you precisely to inquire whether you needed my help to entertain your guest, Mrs. Luther. If you do, I'll make a trip to the Luther residence. You're right that I'm now the mistress of the Luther family, so I should be attending such an event.”

Felicity swiftly answered, “Of course, I need your help! Come over earlier and entertain Ms. Shurmer well. Both of you are young, so you've got common topics. That way, she won't be left out.”

“Sure.”

When Felicity hung up the phone, she lifted her eyes to look at her husband, whose expression had gone grim. Arching a brow, she drawled, “I reckon you have no objections that I have the daughter-in-law of the Luther family come back and entertain our guest, right, Mr. Luther?”

Gerald cradled his head helplessly, lamenting with a sigh, “Is this necessary? Not only is Zoey a well-mannered and obedient child, but she also has an influential family background. If you put aside your prejudice, you'll definitely like her.”

“Hah!” Sneering, Felicity mocked, “How much trouble did that woman cause me back then? Like her daughter? Sorry, but I'm not that dumb.”

“How impertinent!” Gerald saw red. He paced back and forth in the room while pointing a finger right at her, seemingly having something to say yet hesitant to do so. After doing so a few times, he flicked his sleeves and stormed toward the door.

In the next instant, Felicity's nonchalant voice drifted into the air. “You'd best give that daughter of your first crush a phone call and warn her not to come over to the Luther residence to invite humiliation. As long as I'm alive, there's no way she's marrying my son. Tell her to just give up.”

Gerald went silent.
