She's Too Busy Winning to Watch Him Cry novel Chapter 238

In the end, it was just Kayla and Caleb at the dining table.

Feeling it was too quiet, Kayla suggested, "Is Liam here? Let's have Liam and Martha eat with us."

Like a dutiful husband, Caleb immediately went to call Liam over.

...

Meanwhile.

After dinner, Jasmine and Rowan went their separate ways. When Jasmine got home, Grandma Ford and Tabitha eagerly asked for details about her outing with Victoria. Hearing that Lyra had also tagged along, Tabitha was taken aback, and the rest of the room fell into a heavy silence.

It seemed Victoria really was dead set on marrying Lyra off to her younger son.

If Jasmine and Lyra actually ended up as sisters-in-law, it would definitely put Jasmine at a disadvantage.

Tabitha sighed in frustration. "That Caleb is so blind, just letting his sister do whatever she wants. What's even more infuriating is that Fairchild Enterprises' products have been selling incredibly well lately..."

Grandma Ford was quiet for a moment before speaking up. "It's fine. As long as Jasmine marries Rowan, our family has the CEO of Jameson Group backing us. Lyra's so-called backing is just an adopted son..."

"Wait until you have a baby. Once Victoria sees her own biological, precious little grandson, and compares him to the one who isn't blood-related—the difference in treatment will be night and day."

"Nobody's perfect. Victoria's superficial politeness is exactly that—superficial. Her current kindness toward Lyra is just temporary courtesy; it means absolutely nothing. Once her biological grandson is born, it'll be crystal clear who she truly favors."

Jasmine thought her grandmother made perfect sense. Still, the memory of Rowan actually inviting Lyra to dinner made her entire body tense with unease.

Tabitha chimed in, "You're getting engaged soon, so stop obsessing over these little things. Right now, your priority is to get good sleep, do your skincare, and make sure you look absolutely flawless and stunning throughout your engagement party."

Elara quickly agreed. "Jasmine looks gorgeous no matter what."

Jasmine nodded slightly, her expression softening, and headed upstairs.

Right then, Elara's phone rang. It was the manager from the high-end boutique. Tabitha, Elara, and Grandma Ford had already prepared their gowns for the weekend, but given their fastidious nature, they always wanted to make one last round of meticulous alterations to ensure absolute perfection.
