Chapter 108 The Arrival of Mrs.

Swan

Wendy was momentarily at a loss for words and quickly tried to recover, saying, “I just feel like those people are showing a lack of respect for our engagement banquet…”

Joe didn’t comment, and soon, someone came up to engage in conversation, cutting their dialogue short.

Wendy’s expression grew more somber. As she lifted her eyes, she noticed someone not far away discreetly greeting her.

It was her mother.

Wendy was taken aback, hastily surveying the surroundings. She quickly pulled the person into a storeroom and whispered, “Why are you here?”

On her records, both her parents had been shown as working abroad, unable to return. She certainly couldn’t let Joe or

Charlotte see her mother’s presence.

Observing Wendy elegantly dressed in luxury attire, Mrs. Swan curled her lip and remarked, “Today is the day of my daughter’s engagement. Can’t I come and see what’s going

on?”

Hearing her words, Wendy sneered. “Are you sure you’re here now to talk about family bonds?”
