It was Louisa!

She had just returned hwith Kenneth after bidding farewell to their guests when she caught sight of her son and Kelly in a tiff-

both unexpected and delightful, she couldn’t contain her joy.

"So you and David are in a relationship."

Louisa was ecstatic, quickly reaching for Kelly's hand and exclaiming, "You've kept this a secret so well, child. At Bella's

homecoming banquet, | asked if you had a boyfriend, and you toldno."

"Uh, Auntie." Kelly knew this misunderstanding had gone too far, and she tried to pull her hand away, but to no avail.

"lI understand, you must have been thinking of David, knowing he's under a confidentiality agreement. You'd rather take the hit

yourself than let him breach it and pay the penalty.”

Kelly was still trying to withdraw her hand.

"lI saw you two having a moment just now. Did this guy get too close to sfemale celebrity and break your heart? He's got a

girlfriend and still can't keep his distance with others. I'm going to set him straight right now!"

Kelly barely managed to say there was no need when, in the blink of an eye, Louisa had David by the ear.

"Mom, that hurts, let go." David never imagined his own mother to twist his ear quite so firmly!

A famous star with millions of fans, being reprimanded by his mother in public. How mortifying!

Where's justice in the world?!

"Louisa, please let him go. Bella already explained, it was a misunderstanding, it's not his fault." Kelly, seeing Louisa's firm grip and

feeling empathic pain for David, quickly stepped in to clarify.

Seeing Kelly rush to defend her son, Louisa knew their relationship was real, and her heart bloomed with joy.

She let go and warned her son, "See how much Kelly cares about you! From now on, whatever you do, think of Kelly first. Don't

break her heart again! Since you're dating her, you better treat her right."

David rubbed his sore ear, "You're my mom, whatever you say is right."

"Did you hear me?!"

"I heard you, | heard you."

"Kelly, cwith me. Kenneth, please entertain our guests." Louisa took Kelly by the hand and they went into the bedroom.

"Sorry, everyone, please help yourselves to stea and pastries." Kenneth took his place at the head of the table to entertain

the guests, saying with a hearty laugh, "We always thought David was single, but turns out he's been quietly seeing someone and

we're just finding out today."

"It's alright, we saw Kelly today, beautiful and graceful. She and David make a perfect match; we're just happy for David, and

happy for you as parents."

"The Collins family just keeps having good news; it's going to be a great year! Everything will go well for the Collins family."

"The Piper family is distinguished; Kelly comes from a prestigious lineage. She and David could not be more suited—it's as if it was

predestined."

"Let's toast to you in advance."

"All your six children have all found great matches, we are beyond pleased. We'll toast with tea instead of wine to honor you."

"Yes, absolutely, this calls for a toast!"

Inside the bedroom.

Louisa took out a bracelet, speaking gently to Kelly, "A long tago, Kenneth and | won a piece of mutton-fat jade at an auction.

It was exquisite, warm and lustrous. | had it made into six bracelets, one for Bella, and one for each daughter-in-law."

Kelly tried to say she wasn't her daughter-in-law, that that she was just playing along with David.

But Louisa looked at her with such genuine warmth and affection, saying each word slowly, "The other five have been given out,

this last one is for you. You don't know how happy | was to see that scene earlier. To learn that David and you are together, that

you're his girlfriend, it filled my heart with joy."
