Chapter 713 Reconciling With Yourself

As soon as Nora said that, Mrs. Landis, who was next to her, said, “But we don’t have an invitation!”

Nora and Iris looked at each other. The two spoke at the same time, “We will have one very soon.”

Mrs. Landis: “?”

A puzzled Mrs. Landis looked at Justin. “Are you going to ask Mr. Hunt to ask for two tickets?”

“No, it’s fine.”

As soon as Iris said that, someone knocked at the door. Then, the mailman appeared and said, “Mdm. Iris, mail for you.”

Iris and Nora looked at each other again.

A look of realization flashed across Nora’s eyes, and she said to Mrs. Landis, “See, isn’t that the invitation?”

Mrs. Landis: “?”

Mrs. Landis took the mail from the mailman. When she opened it, she found that it was indeed an invitation for the orchid exhibition. She was astounded. “Ms. Smith, Ma’am, aren’t the two of you too amazing?”

Iris scoffed. “By holding the orchid exhibition right after she returned to New York, she’s clearly coming right at me. Since she wants to slap me in the face, how could she possibly not invite me?”

Mrs. Landis couldn’t help but smack her own forehead. “Look at me, because I’ve been living here all this time and haven’t come into contact with people much, I’ve even forgotten about such basic household infighting!”

Both Nora and Iris were amused by Mrs. Landis’s use of the words “household infighting”:

Iris patted her and asked, “Where did you learn all these words from?”

Mrs. Landis replied with a smile, “Oh, you know how I watch all those TV dramas when I have nothing to do! I learned it from them!”

Iris suddenly gave her a fierce look and said, “Mrs. Landis, how dare you slack off while I wasn’t paying attention! You sneaky treacherous woman! I’m going to deduct your
