Even the ever-calm Coleen looked at her daughter with a shocked expression.

Unlike Mia and Leo, who had long grown used to Molly's sharp tongue, Coleen was taken aback. If Molly wasn't a sharp-shooter, she wouldn't be Molly.

The first time Coleen saw her daughter's skill, she wanted to praise her, but she also wondered how she had raised her daughter to have such a temperament.

Aiden and Jack's faces turned purple with rage.

She had absolutely embarrassed them.

They were waiting for her downfall in the business world later.

Molly rolled her eyes internally. When Aiden and Jack were trying to smooth things over with her, had they put her into considerations?

If she denied it gently, in the eyes of others, they might take it as her being shyly admitting it. She had to respond firmly. If there was mud on her, she needed to wash it off immediately. It would be difficult to clean up her image once she left this place. In this way, she was indeed like Coleen.

It was eventually the old man Don, who had organized the dinner, who stepped in to mediate the situation. What had started as a simple meal now had everyone aware of the Byrne family daughter's character - she was not someone to be messed with. Chad brought Leo to a quiet diner. In the hustle and bustle of the summer, this place was a peaceful haven.

As they ate, Leo suddenly asked, "Chad, you know that my aunt isn't your real sister, so why are you so good to her?"

"I treat her like my real sister," Chad replied.

Leo pressed on, "But if she wanted to marry you, what would you do?"

He stopped eating, his gaze fixed on Chad, hoping to glean something from his reaction.

Unexpectedly, Chad continued eating and casually asked, "Did Molly tell you this?"

Leo couldn't read anything from Chad's face. "No, I guessed. If my aunt really wanted to marry you, considering how much you spoil her, would you let her become your wife?"

"Probably."

Leo was shocked.
