A Beautiful Misunderstanding

When Zac arrived back home, Essie was on the phone coordinating with the printing company about the design of the invitation card for the party.

When the phone call ended, he glanced at her with raised eyebrows and asked, "Are you going to throw a party?"

"It's mommy. She is holding a ball to find a suitable wife for your brother. She's inviting all the single, rich, young ladies in Dragon City from the age of 18-30." Essie smiled and continued, "Perhaps it's because she is so unsatisfied with me that she decided to go out of her way to choose her daughter-in-law for your brother herself."

Zac frowned and wondered if his mother had too much free time on her hands. Mother found a pregnant woman to pester him, and now she was coercing his brother to find a wife. Zac wondered what any of this had to do with the mother when it's a personal matter to choose your own wife. Besides that, his brother could change his women faster than changing his clothes. It was unlikely that he would just care about any kind of woman she laid in front of him.

While he was lost in his thoughts, Essie interrupted and said, "I have never held a ball in my life. Are there any particular details I should pay attention to?"

Zac was shocked to hear this. "Did my mother ask you to organize this ball all by yourself?" He previously assumed that she was only learning some of the ropes and helping a little here and there.

"Yes, and it's my first time to take care of such an important occasion. I need to make sure I don't screw it up, or the mother-in-law will find more reasons to kick me out," said Essie with a subtle nod.

A blaze of fire appeared in Zac's eyes.

'What the hell?

She had already sent a girl named Cherry to harass me in the company just the other day! Now she is asking for my wife to arrange a ball all by herself. This is outrageous!

It seems that mother has decided that she will not leave me and my wife alone. She seems to want to make sure we can't live in peace at all,' Zac silently thought to himself feeling distressed about the situation.
