Chapter 2316
Even though they had a big family, everyone had their own thoughts, and the atmosphere at the table was not as relaxed as it should be.
Occasionally, someone would chat in a low voice, but most of the time, they ate in silence, creating a somewhat stifling atmosphere.
"Damien, you asked all of us to come back, but why aren't you saying anything?" Dillon felt pressured by Mr. Riddle Sr.'s gaze, so he tried to shift everyone's attention.
"I've been coming back frequently these days and felt that the house still feels quite empty as I am alone. So, I wanted everyone to come back and liven things up,” Damien calmly responded, seeing through Dillon's thoughts.
Dillon's expression froze for a moment, resenting the fact that Damien seemed determined to hold him accountable.' How annoying!'
"Let's eat," Mr. Riddle Sr. said, not wanting to listen to their endless arguments.
"Alright, let's eat," Dillon replied, deciding to stay silent from now on and act like he was invisible.
With Dillon not speaking, Snow knew that she had made a mistake and did not dare to make a sound. Raine, feeling discouraged, was sulking. James, on the other hand, was taking care of her and trying to make her happy.
Karen, feeling frustrated by the whole family’s predicament, was fuming inside.
She could not stand the fact that her family had to endure such humiliation. 'How could we be treated like this?'
She clenched her teeth and her eyes flashed. 'Ugh! Look at Daniel's family. They're basking in the limelight!'
Her gaze ultimately landed on Nicole. She figured that if she could humiliate Nicole, Daniel's family would not be able to enjoy themselves, and that would make her feel much better.
With a sinister scheme forming in her mind, Karen stood up and pretended to serve soup to everyone.
