I'll go if you're going!] [Yeah, my dad knows I was just making up excuses not to go last time, so he resorted to threateningto go this time. Cwith me. Otherwise, it'll be so awkward forto go alone.] [The dinner party sounds more like a grand matchmaking event... I wish you all the best. Haha.] Rita's frown deepened at her best friend's joke.

They're so fake, too! I don't get why our parents are forcing us to get married so fast.] Camille sent a hug emoji. [I don't get it either. Why is your dad in such a hurry to marry you off? You're only twenty years old, barely an adult yet!] [It's all because of Karen and Sadie! They're the ones who've been secretly persuading my dad to marryoff, and you know how soft-hearted my dad is. Karen kept on telling him who's and who's daughters are getting engaged or married, and then she'd point out I've never been in a relationship before. So of course my dad would be worried. He's probably afraid that there might be something withfor having no interest in dating.] Rita could only vent about Karen and Sadie to her best friend.
[I don't understand why your stepmom is so concerned about your love life. She'd better worry more about her daughter. She clast in her grade again. Even I feel embarrassed for her.] Both Rita and Camille knew that Karen's eagerness to marry off Rita quickly was driven by the fear that the lion's share of the Russell family fortune might end up with her. Then again, what was wrong with that? Why should Sadie, who was not a Russell by blood, get any of the share? [Not only are they greedy but delusional as well.] Camille's comment on Karen and Sadie could not be more on point.
[Anyway, I didn't care much about these things before, but what's mine is mine. I'll never give them up without a fight. Remember, you're going withto the dinner party tomorrow!] Rita reiterated, and only after getting Camille's affirmative answer did she log off to rest. She would deal with whatever that might cher way. In any case, Rita was no longer the easily bullied child she used to be. en.Find"Sir, here's your schedule for today. You need to attend the Russell family's dinner party at 6 o'clock, and I've already prepared your attire for you." The secretary placed the invitation next to Sherman's hand. en.FindSherman picked it up and glanced at it. "Another dinner party at the Russell's? Vince seems to be quite active lately." "I've looked into it, and it seems like he's doing all this to marry his daughter off." "Oh, his daughter? Is she at the age for marriage?"

Sherman found it somewhat amusing too. Vince was a force to be O reckoned with in the business world, but when it cto his family matters, he was known for being a clueless old man in his social circles.
