Chapter 474

“Garrett has never lied to me like that before,” she said.

“Usually he would just tell me directly what he wants.”

Vera felt depressed and even a little aggrieved.

After all that she had done for him over the years, now all her son and daughter-in-law wanted was to avoid her.

Laney was clearly the reason she and Garrett had grown apart, that she believed.

“Well, you should go back to work now, Kelly,” Vera said glumly.

Vera calmed herself down. She couldn’t afford to lose her temper.

Kelly had achieved her goal.

Vera was furious, which meant that she would now find a way to deal with Laney and stop Garrett from moving out.

After hanging up the phone, Vera was still too angry to even enjoy her tea. She decided to speak with Laney first.

If Laney didn’t listen to her, she would try to make Laney leave Garrett after having the baby © Meanwhile, Laney had no idea about the trouble that was heading her way.

Gentle music filled the bedroom and she lay on the bed leisurely, chatting happily with Natalie over the phone.

“Be honest,” she said.

“Are you really not upset about the dress?” Natalie sighed.

“Well, I was a little upset at the time,” she confessed, “but that’s all. I’m fine now. Even if you can’t wear it to a party soon, the order was still highly profitable.”

“Brandon and your parents are all wealthy,” Laney t**sed.

“You don’t lack money.”

Natalie could hear her smiling over the phone.
