Substitute Bride and Her Husband Who Disappeared novel Chapter 217

Charlie's third uncle, Mark Firth, immediately spoke up, "Nan, since you are Charlie's wife, we are family now. Just let us know if you need anything. We will do our best to help you!"

With the support of James and Mark, the rest of the family members naturally wouldn't give Nancy a hard time. The women even pulled Nancy away from Charlie and surrounded her.

"Hey! Charlie is really lucky. Nan is much prettier than Vivian..."

It was James' wife who spoke. Charlie's eldest aunt, Freya Firth, glared at her angrily, "No one is allowed to mention Vivian in this house anymore!"

James' wife realized she had said something wrong and quickly nodded with a smile, "Sorry, I just made a casual comment. I won't say it anymore."

Nancy didn't actually mind them mentioning Vivian. What she really cared about was that families like the Firth Family placed a lot of importance on the background of their daughters-in-law.

They must have already known her situation when they came here today. With Vivian's background, she could barely enter the Firth Family, but they didn't show any distaste towards Nancy. Nancy could even sense their fondness for her from their expressions and words.

This made her pleasantly surprised.

Their warmth cured Nancy of her social anxiety.

"Nan, I heard you're close to obtaining your doctorate?"

Nancy nodded earnestly, "Yes, I just need to defend my thesis. I will get my doctorate certificate soon."
