Lauren animatedly recounted everything that had happened at the gathering to Dominick. She also complained
about how Paisley was warm and friendly to Diana but indifferent and dismissive toward her. Hearing all this.
Dominick finally reacted. But it wasn't the reaction Lauren was hoping for. "So, the Sullivan family went to bother

Te they sad sreally awful things. And can you
believe that Christina treated Paisy so terribly? It's like she's not even her biological mom-
it made my blood boil?"
The thought of how Christina had favored her adopted daughter over her biological one made Lauren furious
again. But she quickly remembered that wasn't the main issue right now. Wait, no, son, that's not the point. The
real problem is Diana!" For the first tin her life, Lauren found herself chasing after her son's romantic interest
She and Dizna had been classmates back in the day. With their similar family backgrounds, they were constantly
compared to each other. This led to a mutual dislike that started in school Later, they both married into
prominent Harrowfell families-
Diana into the Beaumont family and Lauren into the Vanderbilt family. The comparisons between them never
stopped.
Lauren had to admit, one of the reasons she'd initially disliked Paisley so much was because of Diana.
Diana's eldest son Morris married Julia, who was outstanding both in family background and looks, while her son
Dominick married Paisley, who at the tseemed utterly unremarkable to her. She felt that Diana had
outshined her, so she had always treated Paisley poorly and never publicly acknowledged Paisley's identity. She
would always bring Marissa to public events instead. Now, she regretted her actions and wanted
to make amends with Paisley. Just at this time, Diana stepped in, trying to compete with
her for Paisley. Just thinking about it made Lauren so furious.

"Son, listen to me, Diana's methods are really clever. Paisy's been smiling at her today and ignoring me. You
need to act fast, think of a way to win Paisy over before Diana and Nathaniel capture her heart!"
Lauren was genuinely anxious now. It wasn't just regret anymore. Her reputation was at stake. However, while
Lauren was in such a hurry, Dominick on the other end of the phone remained calm. "I understand. Let's leave it
at that." Lauren noticed that Dominick seemed to want to hang up quickly, and from the sounds around him, it
seemed like he wasn't at the office. "Son, where are you now?
"Hospital"
Hearing that, Lauren immediately smiled. 'Good Go see them, make a good impression. | won't disturb you
anymore."
