Divorced but Delighted

Chapter 246 Why Don’t You Give Me a Chance

As it was William’s birthday, and he hadn’t come back for years, the Dunphy mansion had been busy since early morning.

Even Charlie got up early and didn’t go to the company as usual.

Although the relationship between the father and son was not good, they still cared about each other. Besides, William’s beloved Cierra had come back, so they couldn’t be

careless.

Cierra didn’t slack off either.

She planned to handle all the food for William’s birthday herself, so she couldn’t take a

break.

Moreover, there were two or, to be precise, three important guests in the house.

After Freddy and Dr. Charles were picked up yesterday, Sarah and Wanda had a long talk and later Wanda agreed to stay at the mansion.

She had thought that Wanda, with her personality, would hide from Jaquan when she

saw him.

The Dunphy family mansion was spacious and accommodated Joshua and Fanny until they had both moved out to start their own families and to leave more room for Sarah to

rest.

Only during holidays would they all gather together to liven up the place.

The mansion, which had been almost empty for a long time, suddenly became lively with so many people around, and everyone was brimming with happiness.

Mrs. Taylor had gotten up early to buy groceries and prepare the food.

Charlie was in the backyard, playing chess with the elders, while Wanda was playing with Will in the grape arbor.

Jaquan who didn’t want to disturb Wanda was sitting with Mrs. Chester on the other

side. He watched as his mother laughed kindly, her eyes fixed on Wanda and Will.

“Jaquan, I heard from Cici that you have feelings for that girl. When are you going to marry her?”

Jaquan nearly burned himself as he heard his mother’s words, but he quickly recovered and acted as if nothing had happened.

“Mom, I can’t rush this kind of thing.”
