Chapter 457 How Long Would They Be Deceived
Finished
Brody's gaze toward his mother was filled with skepticism and uncertainty, but it would have to do for
now.
He turned on his heel and walked away, pulling out his phone and starting to type. Liana trailed behind him, watching her son's retreating figure. She seemed to want to say something, but in the end, she remained silent. After returning, Eula had already explained the situation to everyone.
Jake wasn't particularly interested in the celebration dinner. He had previously sent photos of the scene to his girlfriend, but she hadn't responded. He was planning to have a video call with her that evening. Although they rarely communicated through video or voice calls, mainly relying on text messages, his growing unease made him want to see her more and persuade her.
Just after he texted her to request a video call that evening, she responded with a flurry of messages, thanking him for the pictures he had sent earlier, saying she liked them and enjoyed seeing them, followed by an admission of missing him. However, the final message was an apology for being busy that evening due to attending a gathering. She even asked if he had other plans, seemingly feeling guilty about potentially standing him up.
Jake replied that he had been invited to a celebration dinner that evening. However, he preferred to video
call, so he planned on declining the invitation.
Yet, she enthusiastically recommended him to go, urging him to take more photos of the scene.
Jake could only express his regret upon seeing that he couldn't make an appointment with his girlfriend.
Hence, when Eula extended an invitation later, Jake entertained the idea of having a drink.
Christopher was interested, while Rosalie didn't care, leaving it up to Isabella.
As for Isabella, she thought a change of scenery for a date and to enjoy a little wine with her husband in the evening would be nice, so she agreed to go along.
As they were conversing, there came a knock at the door. Everyone immediately fell silent, exchanging glances before assuming a respectful demeanor, suitable for greeting a family member.
Brody entered with his mother. The moment Liana stepped in, her gaze wandered around the room, finally resting on Eula and Jake.
Yet, her expression was far from pleasant.
As for Brody, he quickly glanced at Jake upon entering before approaching Eula, saying, "Eula, I've brought my mom to apologize. Mom, this is my girlfriend, Eula Quirk, and her elder brother, Jake Quirk. These others are..." Eula quickly introduced everyone around, and they cooperated, greeting with a smile except for Isabella.
However, she was amidst the crowd, so no one paid her any attention.
"Mom, you misunderstood her brother earlier. You should apologize." Brody gently nudged his mother.
