Cory didn't really try to persuade his sister, just lost in thought.
His sister wanted a cell phone, and he had the money to buy her one.
But, she probably wanted to use the phone to contact that man, right?
After hesitating for about a second, Cory dismissed the idea of buying a cell phone for his sister.
If his suspicions were true, he would never want his sister to see or contact that person again in his life.
On her way to the banquet, Rosalynn was a bit absent-minded.
She never expected that, after so many years, Old Mrs. Silverman still had her in mind.
What merits did she have...
The banquet was held in a winery, in celebration of Hilaria's friend's golden wedding anniversary.
Rosalynn stepped out of the car and instantly became the center of attention, drawing many admiring gazes.
The hosts, a joyful couple, approached her without delay.
"You must be Gabriella, am I right?" Mrs. Lawrence's face radiated warmth and affection, making her appear younger than her actual age. It was likely because she was immersed in the bliss of love.
"Mrs. Lawrence, Mr. Lawrence, congratulations on your golden wedding," Rosalynn greeted them warmly, presenting the gift that Hilaria had prepared. "Granny couldn't make it because she's stuck at the airport, so she asked me to convey her blessings."
"No problem, we've been friends for decades. We don't mind these formalities." Mr. Lawrence laughed heartily.
Mrs. Lawrence sized Rosalynn up and down: "Hilari hid such a beautiful granddaughter for more than twenty years! If I had known she had such a beautiful granddaughter, I would have fought for my good-for-nothing grandson to have a chance."
In all modesty, Mrs. Lawrence's grandson was a world-renowned lawyer.
"Granny, don't bother. Ms. Gabriella is already married." A high-profiled, bejeweled woman swayed over at that moment.
