The Love of Violets

Mrs. Campbell saw through Kelly's intentions at a glance, but she was happy to see it happen. It was best to blow up the matter of the engagement as much as possible. After all, Austin was the one who dumped her, not him.

If he announced it in public, he could also send a signal to the outside world that the position of the future lady of the Campbell family would be open.

Therefore, Mrs. Campbell immediately agreed. "Indeed, it's better to bring up such an important matter in a formal setting. Otherwise, if word gets out, people might think that we, the Campbell family, love the rich while we're poor, and that we're taking advantage of the Lambert family's decline to kick them out."

Austin nodded nonchalantly. "Then I'll send Caroline an invitation."

Mrs. Campbell didn't want to step into this old apartment, nor did she want to face Kelly. "Then I'll wait for you in the car. Come back as soon as possible."
