Chapter 413 Gossip Between Families

During the meal, toasts were raised, and the voices in the private room gradually grew louder. However, Evelyn, who had always been low-key, remained quiet and calmly ate the food on her plate.

When it was almost over, she gave the prepared gifts to the family members. Some of them were given by Huston, as he had given them too many, and they couldn't possibly use them all. So, Lucy thought of sharing them with everyone.

When it was time to give the gift to Evelyn's eldest uncle's

family, Lucy took out an expensive box of supplements. Evelyn's aunt glanced at the packaging, and her facial expression immediately changed. Though she smiled, it gave

a somewhat peculiar feeling. "Oh, this box must be very

expensive. My son mentioned it to us before, saying it's sold by

weight and even more expensive than gold."

Lucy knew it was a valuable and expensive item, but she

wasn't sure about the exact price. She was not materialistic,

so she straightforwardly said, "It was given to us by someone else, and I don't know its exact value. Just take it. It's good for the body, and you can give it to other elders if you like."

"Someone else gave it to you?" Evelyn's aunt rolled her eyes, picked it up, and looked at it. "Who gave it to you?"

Previously, Evelyn's marriage to Jerry was considered illustrious. After all, the Graves family was already considered a "prominent family" for ordinary people. Now that she had divorced, how could their family still receive such extravagant

things?

Hearing her ask so carefully, Lucy felt somewhat displeased, but she didn't show it and simply replied casually, "It was a gift

from one of Evelyn's friends."

Unexpectedly, instead of dropping the matter, Evelyn's aunt made a meaningful remark and sarcastically said, "It seems like it's not an ordinary relationship. Your daughter Evelyn must have some abilities. She's beautiful, so even after a

divorce, she can find a new man quickly..."

Evelyn didn't know the purpose behind her words. Perhaps it was just her being straightforward without thinking, but regardless of the reason, it made her feel uncomfortable

when she heard it.

From the start of dinner until now, no one had mentioned her

divorce. Everyone seemed deliberately avoid this sensitive topic, but it was her aunt-in-law who kept bringing it up and even passing judgment, seemingly enjoying the drama. without considering the consequences.

Evelyn would have been indifferent if it were any other time, but now, in front of Lucy, she couldn't bear it. She tactfully retorted, "Auntie, it's so flattering. I can't compare to Samuel, no matter how capable I am. He has achieved academic success and even has a girlfriend this year. I estimate they'll be planning a wedding next year."

Hearing this, her aunt immediately covered her mouth and laughed. "It's not that fast. It depends on how well he studies. abroad."

If they were not planning a wedding so soon, why did Samuel bring his girlfriend home?

Lucy had long understood what she was thinking. She glanced at Samuel and his girlfriend and said, "Samuel is at an age suitable for marriage."

"There's no hurry." Evelyn's aunt looked at Evelyn meaningfully. "Young people nowadays get married quickly and divorce quickly. It wouldn't hurt to spend more time getting to know each other. Just look at Evelyn. Isn't she a victim of rushing into marriage?"

Lucy's patient heart finally reached its limit with this remark. Even if her daughter's life wasn't going well, she could say it herself, but others had no right to make unwarranted

comments!

"I don't like what you said. What do you mean that Evelyn was a victim? Now divorce is very common, and it is their own

choice. Besides, now Evelyn has a new beginning. Why do you

make things difficult for her?"
