Chapter 919
Besides being in charge of Eugene's funeral, Tracy had been secretly observing Catelyn and Cedrick all this while.
Tracy and Sammy were still saddened by the loss of their loved one, yet Catelyn and Cedrick were happily chatting and laughing.
To Tracy, it was no different than mocking the death of her father.
"Tracy, enough." Sammy stared at Tracy with red eyes.
"No! Why can't I voice it out? He's your husband. Your husband was killed! Shouldn't you avenge him?"
"But the two of us have no status in the Atherton family. How can we fight Catelyn and Cedrick?" Of course, Sammy wanted to seek revenge for her husband, but she could do nothing.
Tracy wrung her fingers together and said indignantly, "Isn't grandma's seventy-seventh birthday just around the corner?"
"What?! Are you planning to do something at your grandma's birthday party? ' Sammy was taken aback by his daughter's bold idea. "Don’t. If something goes wrong, we'll be kicked out of the Atherton family!"
The only thing they could rely on was the Atherton family. After all, Eugene's inheritance that was left for them was not much.
"Anyway, I won't let them get away with that!"
The heavy burden on her heart finally disappeared, and Catelyn could finally plan for the wedding with peace of mind.
She and Cedrick planned to hold a wedding on an artificial island near Sapphire City. It was a tourist attraction with mountains and rivers, and there were many local farms nearby that could be the source of fresh food for their wedding.
'It must be very majestic to walk toward an officiant against the sea breeze in an elegant wedding dress,' Catelyn pondered.
Most of the things had been prepared and arranged by the Mason family, and Catelyn only had to decide on her style and preference.
Sylvie also wanted to be at the helm of Catelyn's wedding, but her seventyseventh birthday was approaching, and the Atherton family had been busy preparing for that.
Initially, not long after Eugene died, she did not want to hold a big birthday party. However, life had to go on, and so did everyone else. She faintly felt that her health was getting worse every day, especially the wounds that were caused by Eugene on the cruise ship, which made her uncomfortable and could not sleep at night.
She wanted to take that opportunity to popularize Catelyn among the wealthy ladies and socialites of the upper class, hence she specially invited famous nobles and a few relatives of the Atherton family abroad to the wedding dress and let the Mason family take care of the arrangement of the wedding.
The Mason family even prepared a booklet that included all the details of the wedding for her to look over.
Sylvie's birthday party was such a big event as every one of the Atherton family was preparing gifts and surprises for her. Catelyn and her children were no exception.
On the eve of her birthday, Catelyn and the two little kids had built a snowman in the garden of the manor, putting on a hat and holding a carrot in its hand. They looked very happy, and Sylvie could hear the laughter of the three from afar.
Tracy and Sammy passed by the garden and snorted in disgust. "Let's see if you can still laugh tomorrow!"
"Mommy, does my snowman look good?" asked Miles as he drew two lines on the snowman's cheek, representing wrinkles.
