"Let's have dinner at home. I will cook for you. Your mom learned her cooking skills from me. There's nothing good at the restaurants nowadays," Yvette suggested. "Okay," Felix agreed.
He was at a stage where he craved family bonds, and Yvette was technically a relative. Otherwise, he would have no relatives showing up to his wedding.
"Ronald has lived a pampered life. His mom spoiled him rotten. If he offended you in any way, I hope you won't take it too personally."
"Alright."
Yvette's phone buzzed during the drive. She answered the phone on Bluetooth.
"Hi, Margaret.

"I've secured an appointment with Mrs. Walsh. Hurry over!"
Yvette furrowed her brows, looking troubled. "But Margaret, I can't make it."
"What's more important than meeting Mrs. Walsh? You knew she could help put in a good word. It'll help immensely with that business deal! I dropped you the location. Just come now."
A thought struck Margaret Holmes. She added, "By the way, I nearly forgot that Ronald told me about your nephew, Felix. Bring him along. Ronald's on his way. Having two young men at the table might help lighten the mood.' Then, Margaret hung up with an air of authority
"Aunt Yvette, feel free to leave if you need to. I'll only travel home tomorrow," Felix said.
She glanced at Felix and came to a decision. "Felix, come with me. Shaun is respected in the family, but his older brother, Nathaniel, is the one who has the final say.
"It's good for you to meet with Margaret so I would have a better excuse if I need to ask her for favors."
Felix knew that Yvette's suggestion came from a good place, but he was in no mood to entertain the Sullivans. "I'm good, Aunt Yvette. Really."
"Do not turn me down! I've married a powerful guy, and you are my only flesh and blood. Of course I will help you out! Just do as I say.
With that, Yvette swerved the car in a different direction, leaving Felix speechless.
Yvette had laid it out. If he turned down the invitation, he would only hurt her feelings. He decided to go to that dinner with Yvette and play along.

At the same time, Ronald had arrived at a private room of a fine-dining restaurant in Aleshire. He was seated beside a graceful and regal lady. The rings stacked on her fingers were expensive. Even her perm must have cost a fortune.
"Ronald, are you sure this nephew of Yvette's-Felix-is a guy who can't take any insults?" Ronald nodded. "Of course! Do you not trust me, Mom? He might have pretended to be who he isn't. I bet he is even more smug after he learns about Yvette's new life." Margaret chuckled cunningly. "Great! We finally found a target. Mrs. Walsh is quick-tempered, too. Watch me as I pit them against each other!
"I will make sure that Felix takes all the blame, which makes it Yvette's fault, too! Your dad can leverage this incident to reclaim something from Shaun."
Ronald's eyes lit up after hearing Margaret's plan. "Mom, you're awesome. This is a scheme involving tens of billions of dollars in business! Dad will surely be furious, but Uncle Shaun-given his personality-won't argue with Dad. What a golden opportunity!" "Indeed. But that depends on one condition. Felix must act out, like how you described him, or my plan won't work."
Ronald smiled, thinking, "Dear Felix, you should make a scene just like the way you lashed out at the scarf boutique!"
