“It depends on Kathy’s choice. Both schools have extended offers to her, so she can pick whichever she prefers,” Aiden said proudly.

“Why are you only here now? Didn’t I tell you to come earlier?” Aiden muttered angrily when he saw me. “Where is our daughter?”

At that moment, I noticed Maria and her daughter were also there.

“Aiden, this is unbelievable. You even brought this woman to your mother’s house,” I said angrily.

“Clare, don’t be petty. They’re here to congratulate our daughter. You wouldn’t embarrass me by not bringing her, would you?” Aiden whispered, his face showing anger.

Lydia, my mother-in-law, asked anxiously, “Clare, why didn’t my precious granddaughter come with you?”

Everyone’s eyes were on me, wondering why I was alone.

“Clare, stop causing trouble or you’ll face the consequences. Bring Kathy here immediately,” Aiden demanded.

"I brought my daughter."

“Where is she?” Aiden looked around.

“Here she i...”

seeing I took out the cinerary casket, the originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet.

Everyone stared at the urn in shock and contempt.
