Chapter 36

“Bringing up a breakup at Ms. Schnabel’s birthday bash, isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”

After all the Schnabel and Pollack families had been tight for decades, and the whole point of their kids‘ engagement was to take their friendship to the next level. Palmer dropping the breakup bomb at Ms. Schnabel’s party was like slapping the Schnabel family in the face.

Palmer spoke up with an icy voice. I’m definitely calling off this engagement; I can’t wait any longer!”

Without breaking it off, he wouldn’t be free to chase after Noella with all his heart!

Even if Yvonne’s character wasn’t his cup of tea, they were still engaged. Calling it quits was the respectful thing to do for both her and Noella!

It was the respect that the relationship deserved!

Annie thought about all of Yvonne’s dramatic antics and couldn’t bring herself to like her either. Yvonne had already tried to fire Annie before even joining the family. Thus, Annie had zero warm fuzzy for her.

Compared to her, Ms. Noella was a whole different story–leagues better!

Old Mrs. Lambert didn’t have a single share to her name, and Belinda knew it more than

anyone!

The Lambert family’s missing funds? She had quietly siphoned them off, propping up her own folks!

If Vincent found out, it would be another row. Just the thought of it gave her a headache.

“Ma’am, that Noella girl’s sharp as a tack. She’s never seen eye to eye with you. I bet she’s scheming to worm her way back into the Lambert family. Mr. Lambert’s a soft touch, and if Noella gets her way, what will happen to Ms. Briony?”

“You’ve got a point. Noella’s sticking around because she can’t let go of the Lambert family. Last time, she was flirting with Milford right in front of me. Get in touch with the papers. We need to publicly cut ties with her, snap her out of this daydream!”

“Alright, will do!”
