Chapter 77

Chapter: 77 Claudia’s tone was condescending, and it was clear that she was dissatisfied with Millie. As the guests quieted down, the two well-dressed women beside Claudia smirked with obvious schadenfreude.

The two women were Madison Thomas and Della Thomas, wives of Marcus’s two uncles. In the Thomas family, these two women had long been rivals, each constantly competing with Celeste.

Upon seeing Millie, Celeste’s face darkened. Why was she still present?

Directing a reprimanding glare at her son, Celeste realized she would have to resolve this awkward situation herself. She approached Claudia, a bright smile on her face.

“Mother, you've been conversing for a while. Here, have stea to soothe your throat.” Claudia dismissed the teacup, but her stern expression quickly softened, her gaze settling kindly on Millie.

“There’s no need, my dear. Don’t be anxious, Millie. | may be old, but | don’t judge people solely on their looks. Your eyes are beautiful; | quite like them.”

Millie felt somewhat uncomfortable, but managed to thank her. surprised by this abrupt shift in demeanor, she couldn’t help but feel that Claudia’s strict expression earlier suggested disdain.

However, it seemed now that the difficult times were over, and she was in Claudia’s good graces. It was a situation with only upsides for her.

Claudia gestured to the people around her, introducing them to Millie warmly.

“Millie, this is your eldest uncle and his wife, your second uncle and his wife. This young man here is Leon, your eldest uncle’s son, and this one is Bruce, your second uncle's son... Oh, and this is Leon’s fiancée, Lois. Grandma is quite fond of Lois. | imagine it won't be long before she becomes your cousin-in-law.”

Millie nodded and proceeded to politely greet everyone by name.

However, after this round of introductions, apart from Bruce and Lois Rayne who offered friendly smiles, the others merely responded with an indifferent “hm.”

It was evident that no one held much regard for Marcus’s ugly-looking wife. So, his nwas Leon. Millie repressed her excitement as she subtly observed him. He was indeed a striking and talented individual. His high-bridged nose and eyes, filled with an intense undercurrent, gave him a

captivating aura. His expression was stoic and resolute, reminiscent of a lone wolf concealed in the shadows, distant and inaccessible.

Millie couldn’t help but sigh. Among the three grandsons of Claudia, Leon was merely engaged, yet it was the second grandson, Marcus, who was married first.

Millie suddenly remembered that she hadn't given her gift yet. She promptly presented the box of cookies in her hand. “Grandma, happy birthday. This is my gift. It's from Woody's...” “Huh, you must be joking! It’s mom’s birthday, and someone has the audacity to bring cheap biscuits.”

Before Millie could finish her sentence, Madison, having noticed the word “biscuits” on the package, abruptly interrupted her.
