Chapter 1070 Remember to Attend the Wedding
The woman shook her head in panic at Wendy's words, and tears welled up in her eyes as she cried, "M-Miss Gardner, I didn't mean it. I—"
Wendy sneered at her snobbish attitude, "It's too late!"
Evelyn tried to put in a good word for the pitiful lady after seeing how the situation had taken such a twist. "Wendy, she didn't mean it. Don't be mad at her nor stoop to her level."
After Evelyn tried to put in a good word for her, the woman bobbed her head eagerly and chirped along, "Yes, Miss Gardner. Please don't stoop to my level. I was full of sh*t earlier and it's all my fault!"
Wendy merely cast an indifferent look at the woman before letting out a snooty huff. Meanwhile, Nicole held her hand, saying calmly, "Let's go."
Wendy rolled her eyes at Evelyn's lackey. Then, she turned to Evelyn with all smiles and told her, "By the way, Evelyn. There's something I haven't told you yet. Colton and Nicole will be getting married soon. Make sure you attend their wedding, okay?"
Almost immediately, blood drained from Evelyn's face, and her hands that were hanging by her sides clenched tightly. She pursed her lips, and fury brewed in her eyes as she gave Nicole a death glare. However, she squashed the blazing anger in her chest as Wendy was still around. "When did this happen? Why… didn't I hear anything about it?" she said through gritted teeth.
The smile on Wendy's face broadened when she saw the defeated expression Evelyn was wearing. She snorted disdainfully and then answered, "Maybe there's no need to let an outsider know about something between the Wrenn and Gardner Families."
Although it was such a breezy statement, it immediately turned Evelyn's face pale. Even though the public didn't know that she wasn't truly part of the Wrenn Family, Wendy was definitely in the know.
So, she squeezed out a smile as she met Wendy's eyes and said in a flat tone, "I've heard my mother mention it briefly before but didn't expect it to happen so quickly. Congratulations." The words sounded as though they were forced out of her throat—stiff and unpleasant.
Wendy chuckled in amusement as she felt a wave of delight washing over her chest at Evelyn's sullen face. She even deliberately hugged Nicole's arm affectionately as she said haughtily, "You're too kind. Just remember to attend the wedding, okay?" Then, she dragged Nicole and left.
By the time Wendy and Nicole were strolling on the street side-by-side, Wendy couldn't help but turn to her. When she saw the nonchalant look on her face, she asked curiously, "Nicole, aren't you mad that the woman was so provocative earlier?"
A faint smile appeared on Nicole's face, tossing her hair as she answered, "You can't chase after a dog to try and bite it in return after it bit you, can you?"
Wendy felt a great sense of joy in her chest at the analogy Nicole used. Nonetheless, she was still going to drag Nicole to have their meal in another restaurant. When they returned home, Siobhan and Rita were already gone, leaving Anna behind. Regardless, Anna knew that she had a huge task before her as she attentively explained to Nicole the process and flow of the wedding. "The wedding is already set. Although we're a little tight on time, it doesn't affect anything. Let me know if you have anything else to add to this and I'll get it done."
Nicole's eyes flitted across the detailed information Anna presented her. Then, she smiled and shook her head, saying gently, "Let's do everything according to your arrangements."
Anna flashed her a smile but sighed afterward. "After all that has happened, you guys can finally be together. Hayden has been saying that he misses you and is currently upstairs. Do you want to check on him?"
Nicole ran into Anna the moment she returned home. Thus, her time was utterly occupied with wedding discussions. Once the conversation came to a close, Wendy dragged her out. Hence, she didn't have time to spend some quality time with her son at all. The past few days had been so hectic that she missed her son more than ever.
