Hearing his words was like a breath of fresh air.

“Shouldn’t we also congratulate Mr. Alonso on scoring such a great son–in–law?”

Cole’s face stiffened a bit.

But then she remembered that Phoebe was still the daughter of the Alonso family. So, didn’t that mean that everything in the Bowles family would also belong to the Alonso family?

Thinking about this, the smile on her face deepened. “Phoebe’s really lucked out. Compared to our Wendy, her fate is miles better. I’ve done right by my poor, late sister, making sure her daughter is set.”

Everyone knew who she was referring to as her “late sister,” Phoebe’s deceased mother.
