Chapter 171 Bad Taste
Christopher didn’t know if there was any misunderstanding.
“Margaret’s parents came to the Solace residence today and brought a pile of things here!” Zachary took a sip of tea and said, “She said she came to visit your mother.”
Christopher finally reacted when he heard this.
He looked up at Zachary and Winnie, “What did they say?”
The Solace family and the Ziegler family always had no contact. At most, they had business deals. However, the two families were also competitors, so the possibility of cooperation was very low. Over the years, the Ziegler family had been suppressed by the Solace family. They were kind and generous on the surface. In reality, they scolded the Solace family secretly.
Would they come and visit Winnie with a pile of gifts?
No one would believe it.
Winnie sighed and became angry. “They said you have forcefully taken their daughter and asked us to be responsible for her!”
Although Waylon and his wife didn’t say anything, Winnie understood what they said.
Christopher sneered and lowered his head to play the game again.
Seeing that he didn’t respond, Winnie was a little confused. “You don’t really have anything to do with the daughter from the Ziegler family, do you?”
Christopher laughed. “Is my taste that bad?”
Hearing this, Winnie was relieved. Then, she paused and couldn’t help saying. “How good do you think you
are?”
Christopher didn’t argue with her.
Looking at her son’s arrogant countenance, Winnie was a little angry. She said, “You’re the one who wanted the marriage. Since you are married, you have to shoulder the responsibility of a man. Look at you! How can you be a husband and a father?”
Christopher rubbed his ears, lifted his eyelids, and glanced at Winnie. “I wonder if you’ve passed menopause, Mom.”
“Christopher!” Zachary shouted.
Christopher immediately stopped talking.
Usually, Zachary didn’t care much about Christopher and even Layla. He only raised Kendrick up.
And Kendrick and Zachary were very similar in temperament.
But since he stepped down, Zachary had become much calmer. Except for Winnie’s matter, he didn’t bother to interfere in anything else.
Layla put away her phone, looked at the two elders, and said, “I’ll ask someone to investigate this. I won’t let the Ziegler family stain Christopher.”
Winnie nodded. “Find out what’s going on as soon as possible. We can’t get involved in these messy things. ”
When they got back, Joyce stuffed a lot of tonics in Christopher’s car.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Looking at the bags, Yuliana felt a headache. “Joyce, I haven’t finished what you gave me last time!”
Joyce smiled and said, “I gave it to you last time, and this time it was Mrs Solace’s order. Yuliana, do you want to let her down?”
Yuliana was stunned and looked in the direction of the main building.
Joyce said, “Mrs. Solace said that you are too thin. Go back and ask Hailey to cook them for you. It’s for health replenishment.”
Yuliana smiled and said, “Joyce, please thank Mrs. Solace on my behalf.”
“Okay,” Joyce answered with a smile. “Get in the car and go back. It’s getting late. You have to go to class
tomorrow!
Yuliana nodded, said goodbye to Joyce, and got in the car.
Joyce walked to the driver’s side and said, “Have a safe drive.”
Christopher replied, “Joyce, we’ll leave now.”
The car slowly drove out of the Solace residence Yuliana was still a little confused. Today, Joyce called them back to the Solace residence to eat dinner. Was it only a simple dinner?
Yuliana remembered that Joyce deliberately took her for a walk in the yard and stared at Christopher for a while
Christopher noticed her gaze and tilted his head to look at her. “Is there something on my face?”
Yuliana was stunned. She stared at him and asked, “What is it?”
“My handsomeness!”
Christopher was so arrogant that he felt a little silly after saying that.
Yuliana ignored him and turned her head to look out of the window.
After a moment of silence, Christopher looked at her again. “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing.”
She felt something was amiss. Why did Winnie suddenly change her attitude toward her?
It was quite late when they got back to Celestial Garden. Yuliana had to prepare for the next day’s class. It was almost 12 o’clock after washing up..
After a while, Christopher pestered Yuliana. However, she ignored him and fell asleep.
Layla arranged for someone to check Margaret’s recent whereabouts. She also found that Christopher went with Margaret on a business trip to Romdale some time ago. She contacted Cameron to learn about the situation. She confirmed with Cameron that Christopher must have nothing to do with Margaret.
Why did Waylon and his wife say that Margaret and Christopher had slept together?
Only Margaret knew the entire picture.
A few days later, the investigation came to an end.
Layla received a video from the hotel surveillance cameras.
In the video, Margaret and Lincoln entered the hotel together. The next day, they came out of the hotel room one after another. What happened was self-evident.
Layla told Winnie about the investigation result. She was frustrated.
She didn’t comment on Margaret’s behavior. It was disgusting to frame Christopher up for this kind of thing. “I can’t just let it go like this!” Winnie said.
Layla was stunned. “What do you want to do, Mom?”
Winnie sighed. “Isn’t your father’s birthday around the corner?”
Layla nodded. “It’s the first day of next month. It falls exactly on New Year’s Day.”
Winnie laughed and said, “In that case, let’s hold a banquet in the name of his birthday and invite all families in Juxshire, especially Mr. Waylon and Mrs. Waylon, to join us.”
Layla’s scalp went numb. “Mom, what do you want to do?”
Since Zachary handed over the matters of the Solace family to Kendrick, Winnie hadn’t taken care of
anything at all. She and Joyce were in charge of many social engagements. Obviously, Winnie had something
her sleeves this time.
up
Winnie told Layla about what Quincy said that day and said, “The others don’t have the right to talk about the Solace family!”
Layla understood what she meant and said, “Okay, I’ll discuss this with Joyce.”
Soon, the news of Zachary’s birthday party that would be held in the Solace residence came out. The whole upper class of Juxshire started to talk about it, and the invitations were sent to the families one after another.
When Quincy received the invitation, she was so happy that she hurried to the company and told Waylon
about it
Honey Mr Solace hasn’t held a birthday party for many years. This year is only his 68th birthday it shouldn’t be that eventful Do you think it has something to do with our daughter since he chooses to organize a birthday party this year?”
was two days away from Margaret being released from the detention center.
The news spread out all of a sudden. The invitation was sent in a hurry. Obviously, it was a temporary decision
Looking at the invitation, Waylon couldn’t help laughing. 1 think so.” Since Zachary stepped down, they have rarely made public appearances. They won’t hold this birthday party for no reason.”
Hearing Waylon’s words, Quincy became more confident. “Marge will be out in two more days, and she can join in time But do you think we should discuss this with the Solace family again? If anything goes wrong, it will be bad”
