Semua Bab Of Pillows and Pampering: Bab 781 - Bab 790

“That’s Tina Castillo?” Stephen did not seem to sense there was anything wrong with Magnolia as he leaned against the railing on the second floor and yawned as he looked at the middle-aged woman dressed in a purple gown. “She looks pretty good.” Sally smiled as she said jokingly, “So, are you planning to meet her yourself tonight?” Stephen hurriedly shook his head. “You must be joking. I’m only in my twenties.”“Perhaps she’ll be my type in thirty years.” “But that’s where the problem is. Can you imagine how old she’ll look in thirty years?” Sally shook her head helplessly. When she turned around, she saw Magnolia gripping the railing with both hands. The woman frowned slightly. Magnolia’s reaction seemed a little… extreme.By logic, she was supposed to be excited today, not nervous. After all, they had been prepping for a whole week, and she had been excited during the entire process. Why had she suddenly become nervous two hours before the ceremony was scheduled

Sally stood rooted to the spot, waves of emotion and warmth washing over her. She had been busy helping Jill and Magnolia prep the wedding, and Elijah had claimed to be busy too. All this while, she had thought he was busy with work. She would never have imagined that this man… Would have done so many things behind her back. She had the urge to jump straight into Elijah’s arms. And she did just that. Leaving Magnolia to catch up with her family on the third floor, Sally took her phone and called Elijah. “Where are you?” “Downstairs.” The man’s deep voice was gentle. “Sam and Sarah just arrived. They’re taking pictures with the balloons at the entrance.” “I’m accompanying two kids who have no worldly experience.” He had just finished speaking when Little Sarah’s indignant voice rang out. “Daddy, who did you say has no worldly experience!?” Then, Sam’s solemn voice rang out. “I told you, we can only call him Daddy after they get married!” “Grandpa said it’ll hap

Bennett frowned slightly as he gazed at Queenie and said, “Sal and Elijah just reunited after a long while. They finally got back together, it’s only normal they’re being clingy.” Then, he smiled kindly and said, “You still don’t understand.” “You’re about to get engaged to Christian, but you’re still such a stickler for rules.” “You’ll understand once you’re married.” Queenie laughed coldly and said, “Perhaps I’m more of a modest person.” As she spoke, she swept a cold gaze across Sally and said, “Even if I’m married, I would never be so flagrant to make out in front of my kids. That's so inappropriate!” Then, she smiled slightly at Sally. “Perhaps I’m not as thick-skinned as you are, dear sister.” Sally’s face paled slightly but she smiled as she raised her head and looked at Queenie’s clothes, which had just barely managed to cover her intimate parts. “What are you talking about, sister? No matter how thick-skinned I am, I could never be so thick-skinned that I attend

In the end, Bennett still dragged Queenie up the stairs with them. In Bennett’s words, Queenie had bad taste. What if she ended up buying an even more revealing outfit? It was better she went upstairs with them. After all, Natalie’s sister would be a middle-aged woman, and whatever she wore was sure to receive approval from the older generation. Of course, this was just Bennett’s way of making Queenie go upstairs. He had always thought of both Queenie and Sally as his daughters. If he was going to meet his wife’s sister, of course he had to take both daughters with him. Ever since Sally had returned five years ago, there had been some barriers between Queenie and the rest of the family. Bennett secretly hoped that by making Queenie and Sally spend more time together, his two daughters would grow closer. However, what he did not understand was some things had been determined way in advance. No matter how hard he tried, Queenie and Sally would never act like blood sisters

Queenie managed to extricate herself completely from the situation with just a couple of sentences. On the surface, she seemed to be apologizing, but in reality, she was critiquing Sally for being petty and holding onto a grudge for something that had happened so long ago. She had even used phrases like “it’s contents might have sounded even worse”, and “I set out with good intentions, but I ended up causing so many more people to learn about you” to further pin the blame on Sally for not being ethical. However, there were plenty of people, like Bennett, who were so touched they sighed and said, “Queenie, that’s all in the past.” “Sal wouldn’t hold a grudge.” “Besides, you came from a place of kindness…” Elijah smiled as he pulled Sally into his arms. “Why wouldn’t she hold a grudge?” “With my temper, I would never forgive anyone who dared defame my wife.” “I did not seek revenge upon Ms. Tate because I took the fact that my wife’s father had adopted her into considerat
