Filed To Story: Returning to Her Not-So-Poor Family
“Well.” Demetrius was left speechless, stuttering for two seconds before saying. “This is my last savings. I once said, as long as I have something, I’d give you all of it.”
Seeing Mirabella’s disbelief, Demetrius added, “You saw it in the mall earlier. Zachary paid for Yoli’s stuff. I’m broke and can’t afford it.”
“And why should I care? I’m telling you for the last time, get out of my way. Mirabella was done arguing.
Someone like Yolanda wanted to be part of the Panter family? Was the Panter family’s bar really that low?
“How about this, I’ll have Yoli apologize to you privately?”
After saying this, regardless of Mirabella’s response, Demetrius turned to Yolanda and said, “Yoli, come here, apologize to your sister.”
Reluctantly, Yolanda approached and put on a pitiful face. “Sis, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were the founder of QY, or that you’re really capable. Please believe me, I was just afraid you’d go astray. I meant well.”
Before she could finish her sentence, she noticed Mirabella’s gaze turning even colder. She quickly added, “I’m sorry, please forgive me.”
“Do I look like a saint to you? Get lost.” Mirabella lost her patience, pushed her away and was about to get into her car.
Demetrius rushed to help Yolanda as Olga once again blocked the car door. “Mirabella, are you really going to drive us into a corner?”
Hearing this, Mirabella raised an eyebrow. “If this can drive you into a corner, then I’m quite happy.”
Olga’s face turned sour. Realizing something, she pulled Yolanda to kneel down beside her.
“Aren’t you mad because Yoli spread rumors about you in public? I’m making her kneel down and apologize. Isn’t this sincerity enough?”
Hearing this, Mirabella laughed coldly. “Even if you all commit suicide in front of me, I won’t drop the charges. Give up.”
“Sis, are you mad because Zachary has been nice to me? If you really like him, I can step aside.”
Kneeling on the ground, Yolanda cried pitifully, “It’s just that he’s been pestering me, I really had no choice.”
She added earnestly, “I’ve tried to persuade him several times to be with you, but he just wouldn’t listen.”
Mirabella, who had been about to get into the car, laughed. “What, didn’t he tell you that he’s been pursuing me lately?”
This left the three stunned.
What??
Zachary had been pursuing her??
“You haven’t checked his phone? You don’t know how many different accounts he’s been using to text me. I guess you must have used some underhanded tricks to keep him, but you can’t keep his heart. I find you quite pathetic, living like a joke.”
After saying this, Mirabella immediately opened the car door, hitting the mother and daughter who yelped in pain.
Mirabella left them there, huddled together in shock. They had been genuinely afraid that Mirabella would run them over as she started the car.
Demetrius watched Mirabella drive away, didn’t expect the engine sound of a limited–edition Rolls–Royce to be that pleasing. What a car.
On the way home, Yolanda pulled out her phone to call Zachary, intending to confront him about what had happened.
Unexpectedly, Zachary spoke first after picking up, “Yoli, I can’t make it to dinner tonight, I’m not feeling well.”
Upon hearing this, Yolanda immediately guessed that Zachary was mad at her because of what happened at the mall.
He must’ve felt she embarrassed him.
But they, the Melton family, had already told everyone that Zachary would be there, if he was a no–show tonight, the quests would think they were just blowing. smoke.
If their wedding got called off, the Melton family will only be looked down upon even more.
Thinking about all this, Yolanda decided to play a different card, Zachary, my stomach’s a bit upset, I felt like puking just now, I don’t know, maybe I’m pregnant. Don’t worry, if it’s true, I’ll get rid of it, I won’t put you in a tough spot.”
Zachary felt very awkward after hearing this, “That time, I took precautions, there shouldn’t be anything. If there is, let’s keep it.”
“But,”
“Let me rest for a bit, I’ll come to your dinner later, don’t overthink.”
Yolanda breathed a sigh of relief, “Then you take a good rest, I’ll wait for you at the restaurant tonight.“.
After hanging up, she felt a bit more relaxed, thank god she had this to keep Zachary in check.
She suddenly felt her decision was right, at least she had this to hold over Zachary if he ever tried to ditch her.
In the evening, Demetrius, Olga, and Yolanda decided to dress to the nines..
Yolanda wore a simple yet elegant dress, although it was a designer piece, there was no brand logo, her hair was let down making her look innocent and charming.
As soon as they got out of the car, a family enthusiastically greeted them.
“Hahaha Demetrius, long time no see. I thought your family might be having some troubles, seeing the car you’re driving, and you’re able to book at Dawn Restaurant. I heard this place is under the McMllian Corporation, pretty tough to get a reservation.”
“Olga, you’re looking more and more beautiful! Looking at your figure, and your dress, those negative rumors must be false.” The woman speaking was Carroll Farley’s wife, Olivia Farley, who was also dressed to the nines!
With a smile on her face, Olga replied, “Our business is doing better and better, naturally, there will be jealousy.”
In her mind, Olivia thought, if they were really going bankrupt, how could they be hosting a banquet here?
Thinking this, she turned to Yolanda, “And who is this? Isn’t it Bellà who was said to do well in her exams and invited us for dinner? Where’s Bella?”
Why did a girl with lesser looks and charm than Bella show up? Where was Bella?
Hearing this, Yolanda felt a bit embarrassed, but still maintained a polite smile.
Olga gently patted Yolanda on the shoulder and said, “When I say my daughter, I mean Yoli. I’ll formally introduce her to everyone later.”
Olivia’s daughter, Jean Farley, was attracted by the dress Yolanda was wearing and couldn’t help but ask, “Is your dress the latest LV?”
Yolanda nodded graciously, smiling at her, “And yours is Dior, right?”
Jean laughed, “You look very low–key, wearing designer clothing without any logos. I’m Jean, nice to meet you.”
“I’m Yolanda, thank you for coming to my party.”
Jean was surprised, “This party is for you?”
Where was Mirabella?
Actually, Jean was looking forward to seeing Mirabella because she really liked Mirabella’s personality.
“Let’s go in first.” Demetrius happily invited his friends in.
He had reserved eleven large tables in the lobby for tonight, a total of eighty–eight seats that could accommodate eighty–eight friends and relatives. He planned to publicly announce Yoli’s identity in front of everyone.
Since the Dawn Restaurant was not accepting other guests today, the lobby was only occupied by their family. If others didn’t know better, they might think they had booked the entire floor.
As soon as Olga and Yolanda walked into the lobby, many friends and relatives who had arrived early stood up to greet them.
“Olga, long time no see, you guys have been doing better and better over the years.”
“You guys are so extravagant, booking the whole floor in one go.”
