The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1645

Larkin's fury was for the slap Erica had received today, and also for the two she got the last time he wasn't around.

Just then, a servant hurried in.

"Mrs. Carter's family has arrived at the hotel."

The smile on Erica's face slowly faded, and she clearly became nervous. She looked at Larkin, "Did you really invite all my family?"

"Mmhmm." Larkin nodded, "I promised you, didn't I?"

Erica was speechless.

She thought he was just joking.

Larkin had said before that he had invited her family, and she was half in doubt.

But they... actually showed up.

"I have arranged for someone to pick them up." Larkin continued, "Your face is still swollen, so don't go meet them yet."

"Okay." Erica nodded.

Rosalynn sensed Erica's unease.

After Larkin finished applying the medicine to Erica, Rosalynn pulled Erica aside and asked, "Why are you so nervous about your family being here?"

Erica was a bit upset, "It's been a long time, I guess I'm a bit anxious."

But that wasn't the whole story.

Erica had seen the guest list Larkin made. Kelly Shields' name was clearly on it.

But Kelly had successfully become their father Calvert' favorite successor.

"With Larkin around, are you worried about them bullying you?" Rosalynn patted Erica's back comfortingly, "Your main task now is to get your face better. Mrs. Strand, that wicked old lady, knowing you're getting married, but she still slapped your face. She’s just too much."

Erica sneered, "Mrs. Strand of course wants me to get married, but not to Larkin. She'd rather me marry a notorious scumbag or a nobody."
