Chapter 212 Causing A Scene

They were talking about Tony happily when a few people suddenly appeared in the hall. At once, the tension in the room grew.

Olivia was playing with Tony and immediately scowled at the unwanted guests’ arrival. As there were other guests around, she immediately regained her composure.

“Lily, I’ve asked my chef to prepare a few desserts. Let’s go try them out. I need your opinion. If you like them, tell the maid to pack some up for you to bring back home.”

The other ladies knew Olivia was trying to send them away, for the unwanted guests were none other than the Yards. Everyone witnessed Cassie’s escape from the wedding five years ago. Her actions caused the Clinton family to become the joke of the upper-class society. Even though Oscar married Amelia shortly after, he still got mocked. Both families remained at peace for the next few years, but Cassie and Oscar were still in an ambiguous relationship. After all, no man could accept being left at the altar by his fiancée.

“We need to try, then. Let’s talk to the chef if they are really good,” replied Lily with a smile. The other ladies nodded obligingly and left with her.

With Tony in her arms, Olivia turned to Oscar. “Oscar, bring your wife to the other end to socialize with the guests there. I’ll handle the Yard family. Don’t interfere lest Cassie kicks up a fuss.”

Oscar held Amelia’s hand and said, “Amelia and I shall go talk to Mr. Ferguson. He only came back to the country yesterday and has never seen Amelia before. When he called me two days ago, he kept reminding me to introduce him to Amelia.”

Olivia nodded. “All right. Go.”

Oscar led Amelia away, while Tiffany remained by Olivia’s side.

“Mrs. Clinton, if they are rude to you, I’ll sew their lips up!” She gestured to zip their lips sternly.

A corner of Olivia’s mouth lifted in response. The next moment, her smile froze in place when she saw the person who appeared behind Charlie.

Upon spotting Olivia’s expression, Tiffany voiced her concern. “Mrs. Clinton, what’s wrong?”
