Evelyn Sherman's body stiffened, and with a look of astonishment, she widened her eyes and opened her mouth, wanting to explain something, but she was unsure whether Grace Yakov had actually seen Chester Yale.
If she hadn't seen him, wouldn't she be admitting something by trying to explain?
Evelyn bit her lip and asked softly, "Mom, why did you come again?"
"I suddenly remembered that since you've been back, I never formally held a celebration banquet to introduce you as the heir of the Yakov Family," Grace Yakov said indifferently as she parted her lips.
Her gaze lingered in the direction of the balcony guardrail, seemingly deep in thought.
Her eyes shone with an intensity that sent a shiver down Evelyn's spine.
Intuition told her that Grace Yakov had actually seen Chester; she was just holding back, not exposing it.
Probably just to avoid an argument...
But the matter of the banquet...
