    Chapter 1660 Dinner Begins


    Old Mrs. Constance came downstairs a whileter. She didn’t feel too great for thest couple of days,


    so she mostly stayed upstairs.

    When she came down, Cindy greeted her like everyone did.


    Old Mrs. Constance looked like a kind old woman. She stared at Ian and Cindy, then she nodded. “This


    must be Ian’s girlfriend. They’re a lovely couple.”


    That only made Cindy even more uneasy. Now that she had met Ian’s friends, it’d be bad for him if they


    broke up in the future.


    Old Mrs. Constance could mingle with them all. She had heard about Aurora’s past, so when she sat


    down to talk, she brought up Aurora’s old career and even hummed some of her songs.


    Aurora was obviously delighted. “Nobody remembers those now.”


    Old Mrs. Constancemented, “They are ssics. Talk of the town, really.”


    Aurora sighed. Those were her glory days, but she pushed her luck and ruined her future.


    They chatted for a while longer, and William came back, though he was surprised to see that there


    were so many people in his house.


    Old Mrs. Constance smiled. “Got the wrong ce?”


    William smiled as well. “I almost thought I did. It’s been forever since we had so many guests.”


    Now that everyone was really here, it was time for dinner. They went to the dining hall, and since it was


    really big, everyone could get seatedfortably.


    It was the first time Cindy ever saw how a rich family truly acted. She remembered researching Sophia


    online and reading about her background, and she wasn’t bragging, but Sophia came from a much


    worse position than she did. Even so, Sophia still managed to handle herself well in this household. It


    was apparent that John loved her.


    The Constances didn’t look down on her just because of her background. Cindy noticed that Matilda


    was actually defensive of Sophia too. Even though most people said it was important for a couple to


    come from two families with simr backgrounds, love would always ovee that.


    Sophia made a lot of food that night, and it almost filled the whole table. John even uncorked two


    bottles of wine.


    The baby was kind enough to go to sleep not long after they sat down, so nobody disturbed them.


    After what happenedst time, Cindy promised she’d never drink again. However, when Sophia was


    trying to fill her ss up, she couldn’t bring herself to say no. All she could do was hold her ss with


    both hands and thank Sophia after she filled her ss up.


    Sophia smiled. “You don’t have to be so formal. You’re already family once you start dating Ian.”


    Ian said nothing, while Cindy nodded with a smile.


    Since thedies were drinking, the men wouldn’t lose out to them. Case in point, Ian got his ss filled


    to the brim.


    Cindy was still a little reserved when the dinner started, since she only knew Aurora and Ian. Seeing


    everyone chatting happily made her feel like an outsider.


    However, Sophia took good care of her. Sometimes she’d lead the conversation to Cindy, though it was


    mostly about her work. She never teased Cindy’s rtionship with Ian and only asked about her.


    Thanks to that, Cindy was slowly feeling more at ease.


    Ian was covering for her as well. He’d take the food for her if it was too far away. Even though they


    would argue for no reason in private, he was still a gentleman in this kind of situation.


    Cindy felt a lot better halfway into the meal and even joked with Sophia at the expense of Ian.


    William was friendly as well, contrary to what Cindy thought he would be.
