The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1763

Julian Young, oh, Julian Young. You've been dead for years, and you still manage to drop a bomb like this on me!

Throughout her smooth, peaceful marriage, Yvette never imagined that years after her husband's death, she would suddenly be thrust into a mother-in-law crisis.

Julian must have thought she was getting too bored down here, so he sent his own mother to keep her on her toes.

Queenie was equally restless.

Half of her anxiety was about her grandson, but the other half was sheer terror over how to handle her daughter-in-law.

Her adopted son had a wife and children as well.

But the dynamics overseas were completely different from Solenia.

Over there, you treated your in-laws like standard relatives. There was no intense, built-in friction.

They rarely saw each other, and when they did, everyone was polite.

How could you have conflict when everyone was practically strangers?

Claire, on the other hand, slept like a baby.

Tomorrow was Saturday, which meant she had the whole day free to watch Queenie's dramatic family reunion unfold.

But Claire had no intention of actually crashing the event.

She was simply dropping Mary off at the hospital when she witnessed Queenie's grand arrival.

Eight men in black suits shadowed her every move, though as they approached the entrance, she commanded all but two to wait outside.

"If we storm in there with an entire army, we're going to terrify my grandson and daughter-in-law."

Queenie's concern was perfectly valid.

Pandora chimed in right on cue, "You really don't need this much security. It's a military hospital—there isn't a safer place in the city."

"If you march in with that many guards, the hospital staff might think you're planning a hostile takeover."

Though Pandora rarely left The James Village, let alone visited Cabinda, she was incredibly well-informed.

Half the village had moved to the city for school or work, and every time they called home to gossip, Pandora heard about it.

They practically reported directly to her.
