Chapter 83

Clara used to put Ada on a pedestal and practically bent over backward if Ada showed even a hint of displeasure. Now that Clara had turned into a bit of a rebel, someone needed to step in and check her!

When Clara got Ada's call, she rummaged through her memory for the info Dylan had given her, finally piecing together who was on the other end. She answered the phone and was greeted by a gentle voice. "Hey Clara, are you free tonight? How about you and Simon come over for dinner? It's been ages since you guys stopped by."

Ada no longer lived in the Ferguson family estate. The elders lived there, while the rest had their own places and only gathered occasionally for family dinners. Clara wasn't sure how she'd acted around Ada before, but since the tone was friendly, she thought it might be a good time to bring up ending the engagement.

"Sure thing, Ada."

After hanging up, Ada glanced at her son sitting next to her and playfully tapped him on the forehead. "See how cooperative she is? Simon, don't get mad at me for saying this, but if you're into Quinn, you should break off the engagement with Clara and be with Quinn."

Simon had thought the same before, but now he felt uneasy. He wanted Clara to make a big fuss about keeping him, just like she used to. He needed her to create a scene for everyone to know. That would make him feel better. Maybe he'd consider dragging out the engagement a bit longer, just because of all she'd done in the past.
