“We planned to host a party at our home tonight, you were to come and join.”
Mallory’s tone was so cold, one would think Briana owed her a lot of money that she hadn’t paid back.
Surprise flashed in Briana’s eyes, followed by an immediate refusal, “I’m busy tonight, I don’t have time.”
“Briana!”
Mallory’s voice was filled with anger. “If it wasn’t for Kiley wanting to mend things with you, do you think I would have called you back? If people found out you were doing temp work, you would definitely have disgraced the Schneider family!”
Briana found it somewhat amusing, yet she was afraid of embarrassing her. She also wanted to call her back to the party, really not knowing what Mallory was thinking.

She wore light makeup today, her hair was pinned up, her demeanor was gentle and easily attracted the attention of others.
“Mallory, I’m so envious of you, how did you manage to have such an outstanding daughter! If I were you, I would wake up laughing from my dreams every day!”
“Yeah, exactly, why is it that my child learns everything but can’t excel at anything! If my child were half as good as Kiley, I wouldn’t have to worry!”
“Who knows who will be the lucky one to marry such an excellent wife like Kiley in the future!”
Amidst the compliments and praises of the crowd, Mallory couldn’t stop the smile tugging at her lips, her eyes full of pride, yet she still insisted on feigning modesty.
“You guys exaggerated too much. Kiley’s success today is all due to her own efforts. Oh, by the way, she also got the autographs you wanted.”
