Mitchell also thought it made sense, if that person from the Lambert family really is the son–in–law of the Acosta family, the Acosta family would have long ago entered high society, and wouldn’t still need support from his wife’s family.
“Lizeth, Dorothy did indeed marry Dwayne, but… it was not made public.”
Gianna tried to explain.
Lizeth sneered, “Gianna, I’m not saying this to offend you, but even though Dorothy is somewhat attractive, what social status does the Lambert family have? They don’t even make their marriage public, could they be frauds?”
Gianna choked, her face turning ugly.
The fact that the Lambert family did not allow public secret marriages is now misunderstood, and they all feel like they are being unfairly criticized.
“These days, there are quite a few men who deceive women into marriage by pretending to be tall, rich, and handsome. You all must keep your eyes open and not be deceived. If that happens, it will be our Acosta family who loses face.”
Madam Acosta also joined in criticizing Lizeth, “How old are you, and you still can’t tell people apart? Can’t you be a bit more successful like your brother?”
Bryson was full of anger again and had nowhere to vent it. He was even scolded by his elders in front of the younger generation during the meal. He was so full of anger!
“Dorothy, you are still young, there is still a chance to regret now.” Lizeth looked at her and advised, “It’s better to leave this kind of scammer early. I will introduce you to some relatives from my mother’s side, they have a car and a house, although they are a bit older, but they will treat you well!”
Without waiting for Dorothy to react, Rogelio chuckled, “Yeah, getting old can be painful. So why don’t you introduce your own daughter?”
Lizeth hesitated, just about to say something, when Madam Acosta stepped in as a peacemaker and ended the conversation.
Halfway through the meal, Dorothy got up from the table to go to the restroom to deal with the wine stain on her pants.
Rogelio turned his head and saw the screen of her phone light up on the table.
Thinking it was a message from Dwayne, he took the phone and entered the password to unlock the screen. Her screen lock password had always been the same four–digit number, 0322.
It was neither her birthday nor Dwayne’s birthday, nor the day they got married, and he didn’t know what significance it held.
