Six years ago, Gordon got the money and never attended the first wedding.
Now, he wanted to attend the wedding when he could not get any money.
Rosalie firmly believed that his ultimate goal was money.
Today, Rosalie was allowed to vent her long-drawn resentment of over ten years by punishing Violet severely.
Back at the villa, Rosalie personally called Melody.
She told her that she had drawn a clear line with Gordon and she was not willing to let him attend the wedding.
There was no need to entertain these people in the future.
Melody was relieved to hear that her daughter-in-law went to solve the problem herself.
In turn, she reassured her daughter-in-law that as part of the Lawrence family, she would no longer be bullied by anyone.
The two chatted a while more.
Then, Melody repeatedly apologized for the many things that had happened before.
Rosalie had come to terms with this long ago.
"Rosalie, I made so many mistakes because I was so foolish, arrogant, and prejudiced.After tomorrow's wedding, we'll be a family through and through.I hope you can give me a chance to be a good mother-in-law and a good grandmother to the kids."
Rosalie did not expect that Melody would suddenly have a profound self-reflection.
"Mom, we need to look forward in life.I hope you'll overlook my shortcomings too if I mess up in the future."
Rosalie believed that Melody was speaking from the heart this time, and so was she.
"Yes, yes, dear.You should go to bed early.The wedding ceremony will start at three or four o'clock,"
Melody reminded her, then hung up the phone.
Rosalie suddenly sat on the sofa, feeling a little dazed.
Byron noticed this and asked, "What are you thinking about? Are you thinking of your mother again?"
Sure enough, he guessed right.
Rosalie was indeed trying to recall her mother in her memory.She was still very young, maybe four or five years old at that time.
In her memory, her mother had a pair of smiling eyes.She looked sweet, and her face was always full of tenderness.She was such a good person, but she was destroyed so cruelly.
