Chapter 90: The anniversary party 2

Looking at his serious expression, the other three looked at him in confusion.

Jemma patted Vincent’s arm and gave him a nod, telling him to talk to Vernon.

Since Vernon wanted to talk about something to him in private, she wouldn’t interfere.

Vincent nodded and pointed his chin towards a place where the crowd was less for Vernon to see.

The two brothers turned in that direction to walk.

[What does he want to talk to Brother Vincent about?]

Vernon heard Helena’s doubts and stopped for a second. He looked at her and gave a smile as if he was asking her permission if she could stay with the guests without him for a while.

Helena smiled back and nodded, "Go. I have Sister Jemma with me anyway."

Even though she had her doubts, she wouldn’t ask him. If he doesn’t want her to know, she wouldn’t pry either.

"Yeah, yeah. I will take care of your wife. You can leave her in my hands for now. Go," Jemma smiled, held Helena’s hand, and said to Vernon.

Once the brothers were out of sight, Jemma and Helena looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders simultaneously.

They both then laughed.

Jemma touched Helena’s nose with a smile, "Let’s go. Let those brothers have their secrets. We sisters will also have our own secrets."

"Yes, yes. We shouldn’t tell our secrets to those brothers either. He he," Helena smiled as if she were a cunning villain in a drama. But her cute face added to that laugh, made her look so adorable that Jemma couldn’t stop herself from pinching her cheeks.

"Sister Jemma, Helena," Someone called them, and they turned to look at Grace, who was smiling at them.

"Grace," They greeted her back with a smile.

"You both look so beautiful," Grace gushed, looking at their outfits.

"You as well," Jemma and Helena said together with their standard smiles.

"Did you come with a date or just your mother?" Helena asked with a smile.

"You!" Grace mockingly glared at her. "I always heard that married women would always want everyone to get together with their partners. But I never thought that I would see you doing that as well."

"Hehe. I was just curious, okay?" Helena chuckled. "But seriously, if you want to meet someone, tell me. I will look into Vernon’s friends and set you up with a blind date."

Grace’s lips twitched, "I know all of Vernon’s friends as well. What are you doing here, introducing us? You are just showing off that you are now a married woman, right?"

Jemma laughed, "Ha ha. That is how it will be for some time after marriage. Grace, you better be prepared to see a lot of that for some more time."

"Sister Jemma. You are siding with Grace to tease me? I never thought you would do that to me. I am not talking to you now. Hmph." Helena pouted.

"Look at you, still behaving like a child. Yet, you want to pretend to be a mature married woman in front of me." Grace chuckled and pointed her finger at Helena’s nose.

Helena just stuck her tongue out and mocked her by making a face.

Jemma laughed out loud and pinched her cheek, "Okay. Stop it now. Grace is still right that you shouldn’t act so childish in front of everyone."

They all immediately looked at their surroundings and felt everyone turning their heads away from them.

"..." Helena’s lips twitched. Everyone was really looking at them, but if they dared, they should keep on looking even if she looked at them, right? Cowards!

She scoffed to herself but did not say anything. She just looked at Jemma and nodded, understanding what she meant.

Sadly, not everyone would pretend not seeing Helena like the others did.

"How are you worthy of being the Jeffery family’s daughter-in-law with how you were conducting yourself in front of everyone? I already said that you aren’t worthy of being together with Vernon. But he wouldn’t listen at all. Now look at you. Losing the face of his entire family in front of everyone," Faye’s mocking words were as harsh and stupid as ever.

Helena’s lips twitched.

[I am sorry, everyone, for calling you all cowards. Thank you for being the way you all were. If you acted like Faye did, there is no way I could handle you all. Sigh!]

Helena sighed as she apologized to everyone for mocking them in her heart earlier.

"Why are you sighing? You finally understood that you were wrong and I was right?" Faye continued mocking Helena.

"Faye, have you gone completely crazy after I married Vernon? Look at where you are standing before you talk to me," Helena could no longer calm herself and scolded Faye.

Faye blinked her eyes. As Helena said, she turned her head and looked around. Everyone was looking at her like she had gone crazy.

She frowned in confusion and turned back to look at Helena. She was crossing her arms and looking straight into her eyes.

Right beside her, Jemma was standing, looking at Faye the same way Helena did.

She understood.

This is the Jeffery family’s event, and here Helena is the host.

Insulting the host is considered a great disrespect.

In short, Faye just lost all her manners by what she had done in front of everyone. She bit her lips, not saying anything. She should salvage this situation immediately.

She opened her lips to speak, but before a word could come out, she was interrupted by someone.

"Faye. You shouldn’t talk like that. No matter how childish Helena was, here she is the hostess, and you shouldn’t talk to the host like that as a guest. Apologize to Helena immediately. Helena is a very good person. As long as you apologize to her, she wouldn’t mind this matter any longer." It was Grace who suggested it to Faye.

Helena and Faye turned to look at Grace and blinked their eyes. ’Is this woman crazy?’ They both thought at the same time.
