Chapter 1038

"Oh really, and who's your aunt? That's quite the attitude you've got there."

Anya, cheeks flushed with emotion, shot back, "My aunt is Mrs. Cedillo, the wife of the president of Cedillo Inc."

Her words hung in the air, and the restaurant went dead quiet.

The group of well-heeled ladies exchanged nervous glances, suddenly aware that the Calder family and the Cedillo family have always been thick as thieves.

Sure, the Calder family might be influential, but it's the Cedillo family that's got their back, which speaks volumes about Andre's clout.

"I'm just mad," Anya confessed as soon as she got home. She went straight to her dad, describing every detail of the incident, "Dad, I don't know what those people's families do, but can you pull up the security footage and find out who they are? They need a lesson."

Mrs. Calder, visibly pregnant, waddled over with a gentle smile, "Sweetheart, I'm not even upset, so why are you? Let me see, my love, you're all frowny. Did you forget the rice crackers I asked you to get because of the spat?"
