CHAPTER 778 MOTHER-IN-LAW ARRIVES
Chapter 778 Mother-in-Law Arrives
"Hattie is at the Riddle family headquarters company, Madam, should we go pick her up now?"
Selena lowered her eyes and nodded without any special emotion.
Leia stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the Riddle family building.
...
Inside the Riddle family building.
Hattie put the thermos cup into her backpack, changed her shoes, and walked out of the room.
She knocked on the door of the adjacent conference room and reported in a crisp voice, "Brother, I'm
going out. I'll be back tonight."
Leon paused the video conference, looked at her rare happy expression, and reminded her, "Grandma
just called and asked you to come back to the mansion for dinner tonight."
Hattie walked away without looking back with her backpack on, "Just tell her I'm busy and have no
time!" ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
The secretary sighed, "Young master, if Hattie continues like this... Grandpa and grandma will have
even more opinions about Lady Selena."
A good and obedient granddaughter turned into someone who is distant from them after being with
Selena for four months... Anyone would have thoughts.
Leon pinched his brow bone with a headache.
Selena is heartless, and Hattie's psychological illness is a ticking time bomb. If these two sisters unite
to cause trouble for the Riddle family... He is worried that the old lady will be angered to death.
...
As soon as Leia parked the car, Hattie jumped onto the back seat and threw herself into Selena's arms,
"Selena, I missed you so much!"
Selena touched her head, seeing her rosy complexion and good spirits, indicating that she hasn't
suffered any grievances after coming back.
She smiled slightly and without even glancing at the Riddle family building, she said, "Let's go."
Leia drove the Riddle family's two sisters to a cafe.
When they arrived, Lady Lauren was already sitting on the sofa.
The cafe was heated, and this beautiful lady took off her coat and played with a feather fan in her hand.
When she saw the two sisters from the Riddle family walk in, she let out a sigh, "These days, it's really
hard for a mother-in-law to see her daughter-in-law."
Selena sat down calmly under the deep and meaningful gaze of this lady and smiled, "Madam, it's
been a long time, are you doing well as always?"
Lady Lauren chuckled and blinked, "Selena, even if my son is just a 'tool man', you can't dislike him to
the point where you won't even call me as mother-in-law, right?"
This was definitely revenge on Selena for refusing to visit the Turner family's door yesterday!
Selena had just started to explain when Lady Lauren chuckled softly, "You've been married to my son
for so long and yet you don't want to visit our home to pay respects to your elders, nor do you want to
let my son visit your home to announce your relationship. Selena, you're really terrible, you know that?"
Selena was stunned
Leia stood behind Selena and watched Osvaldo's mother, who was always on the brink of death, with a
wild imagination. Her lips twitched.
Although Lady Lauren's words hit the nail on the head, they might have the opposite effect.
In case Selena was filled with guilt and really went to tell Osvaldo about divorce...
Oh, Madam, I wish you good luck!
Hattie sat quietly next to them, drinking her milk tea and, unusually, didn't speak up for Selena after
hearing Lady Lauren's accusations.
It was mainly because she had screened through the capital and found that Osvaldo was the most
suitable match for Selena in all aspects.
Compared with Osvaldo, other men were dull and unremarkable.
The fact proved that as long as Selena didn't talk about emotions, she was definitely a very intelligent
person.
She walked up to Lady Lauren and put on a charming and elegant smile, "Mother, I am new here and
haven't prepared any gifts for you yet. Would you like to take me around the capital?"
Leia was surprised to hear that.
Lady Lauren smiled enigmatically, "You've been mistreating my son for so long, and now you want to
get away with it so easily?"
Selena smiled, "How could I? I will personally visit all the elders later."
Leia was shocked.
The fact proved that she was indeed a woman who could be Osvaldo's mother!
Her efficiency was more than a hundred times higher than her son's!
Lady Lauren, seeing that the girl had finally acquiesced, finally mercifully moved on, "Let's go."
She had just stood up when Selena's phone in her bag vibrated.
She took out her phone, looked at the number, and a lively and sweet smile appeared on her face, "I
was just about to go with-" She paused and changed her words, "mother-in-law to go shopping."
Osvaldo was silent for a moment, his low voice tinged with tenderness, making people's eardrums
tingle, "Go ahead. If she bullies you, call me."
Lady Lauren was standing right beside her, and she heard Osvaldo's words loud and clear. A hint of
cracks appeared on her smile.
After a few seconds of silence, Lady Lauren suddenly opened her fan and covered her face. Tears
streamed down as she exclaimed, "You unfilial son! You little scoundrel! I suffered for three whole days
and nights when I gave birth to you, and I worked so hard to raise you. Yet, you treat your mother like
this for the sake of a vixen outside..."
Leia was stunned.
Is this about to turn into a fight right here and now???
Although Selena felt a bit sorry for Lady Lauren, she thought the label of "vixen" seemed a bit unfair for
the girl.
"Mother-in-law is crying, apologize to her."
Osvaldo said in a gentle voice with a hint of seduction. "She has people to comfort her, but you are my
wife, so of course, I will stand by your side."
Hattie wrinkled her nose and held Selena's hand, looking up at her. "Selena, Osvaldo is not wrong. I've
heard that Osvaldo's father taught him this when he was young. No matter where or when, wife should
come first. Never let his beloved wife suffer..."
If it weren't for his "excellent" upbringing, she wouldn't have been so quick to accept her brother-in-law.
For the first time, Selena felt a strong curiosity about Osvaldo's father, the big boss.
Lady Lauren couldn't cry anymore. She smiled slightly, closed her fan, and regained her elegant and
understanding demeanor. She took Hattie's hand and said to Selena, "You talk to him for a while
longer. I'll take the little girl outside and wait for you."
Selena was confused.
This lady's temperament is quite... unique.
After Lady Lauren left, Selena said to Osvaldo, "It's okay," paused, and then asked, "Did you receive
the invitation?"
Osvaldo chuckled, "Did you write it to anyone else besides me?"
"No," Selena smiled, "I only know you, so naturally, I only invited you."
As for whom the Turner family would invite, she had no idea.
