Originally, the Patwins were planning to arrange a marriage alliance with the Schultz family from Peacevile.
But who would have thought that just at this critical moment, Cynthia's uncle conveniently got into trouble. To avoid stirring up any other scandals, the marriage talks had to be temporarily suspended.
Who knows if this delay will make the Schultz family rethink the union because of what happened to her uncle.
Thinking about this, Suri couldn't help but show some resentment on her face.
"Suri, I wasn't expecting you to offer help at this time," Cynthia suddenly spoke up, her eyebrows lowered, looking at her nails casually. "But if you can't keep your mouth shut, I can teach you for free!"
Her tone was calm and indifferent, yet there was an undertone of chilling threat that made everyone shudder.
Suri felt as if her heart was being squeezed by something, her breath caught in her chest.
