Chapter 172 Meet Your Future In Laws
Waylon regarded her with admiration. “I remember the Sce residence from before. Zachary is no
longer in charge. We need to speak with Winnie about it. Because you are both women, it makes it
easier tomunicate. You must make time to speak with Mrs. Sce these days.”
Quincy couldn’t help but smile and say, “All right.”
When Margaret and Christopher get married in the future, she and Winnie will be family.
She couldn’t help but get excited when she remembered thest time she saw Winnie in the Sce
residence
“Let’s see who still refuses to take me seriously from now on,” she mused.
Two dayster, Margaret was released from the detention center, and Quincy went to pick her up in
person. She lost a lot of weight after being locked up for half a month with subpar food and lodging,
which distressed Quincy
“Why’d you lose so much weight?” Quincy drew her daughter in for a closer look.
Margaret pursed her lips and said, “A dozen or so people live in one room, and the food they serve
daily is revolting. How could I possibly not lose weight?”
Quincy looked at her, sighed deeply, and touched her face once more. “It’s nice to be thinner. You were
a little chubby before, but you’ve dropped a few pounds now! Zachary’s birthday party at the Sce
residence is just a few days away, and we’ll show everyone how lovely my daughter is!”
Margaret was unaware that the Sce residence was nning a birthday party, so she inquired, “What
kind of birthday party?”Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
Quincy smiled. “The first day of next month will be your future father-inw’s 68th birthday. The Sce
family has decided to hold a grand ceremony for Zachary. The invitations have been sent out, and both
your father and I have also received the invitation!”
Quincy couldn’t help but feel proud when she thought about this.
Although the rest of the Ziegler family also received the invitation, it was all thanks to her daughter.
Margaret was perplexed. “Didn’t the Sce family always maintain a low profile? Why would Mr.
Sce suddenly throw a birthday party?”
Quincy raised her eyebrows and smiled. “What do you think the reason could be? Of course, it’s
because of you and Christopher! All right, let’s not put this off any longer. Let’s go home and freshen
up. I’ve prepared all of your clothes. We’ll go to the Sce residence to meet your future inws this
afternoon.”
Margaret’s face flushed, and her eyes were filled with excitement. “Okay!”
Quincy and Margaret dressed up and went to the Sce residence in the afternoon, but Zachary and
Winnie were not there. ording to Sofia, they had an afternoon tea date with their friends and went
out after lunch.
Quincy didn’t give up. “Could you please call Mr. and Mrs. Sce for me and tell them that I’vee to
visit with my daughter? We can wait!”
Sofia felt conflicted butplied anyway.
Sofia left to make the phone call and returned with a smile to inform Quincy. “Mrs. Ziegler, Mr. and Mrs.
Sce are meeting with some important friends today, and they can’t leave halfway. However, Mrs.
Sce promised they would return as soon as possible. Do you want to wait a little longer?”
Quincy immediately smiled and said, “Of course. Marge and I have nothing to do in the afternoon. We
can wait!”
“All right, I’ll prepare some refreshments for you two,” Sofia said.
Sofia then turned around and left the living room. She made a jug of coffee, prepared some more
refreshments, and served it to them ten minutester.
It was already dusk, and Zachary and his wife hadn’t returned.
They were left hanging in the living room for several hours, with Sofia stopping by every now and then
to refill their coffee jug.
Sofia reappeared in the living room after dark. “My apologies, Mrs. and Ms. Zielger. Mr. and Mrs.
Sce.
should have returned by now, but when I called, they said the guests had to take them to dinner
together. They probably won’t be able to return for a while. Why don’t youe over on another day?”
Quincy couldn’t keep a smile on her face any longer and said with a gloomy face, “Why didn’t you tell
me earlier that they wouldn’t be able to return? We’ve been waiting for hours in vain!”
Sofia kept apologizing.
In the end, Margaret tugged on Quincy’s hand and gave her a look, signaling her to stop talking.
Quincy backed down for the sake of her daughter
Quincy mmed her bag into the back of the front seat when they got into the car. Her face was
twisted with rage. “I think the Sce family is toying with us!”
Margaret grabbed Quincy’s hand and said, “Mom, that’s not true. Didn’t you say that Mr. Sce’s
birthday party was held because of me? Mr. and Mrs. Sce are probably too busy to return!
Otherwise, there’s no reason for them to make us wait. They would have demanded that we return
immediately!”
Quincy considered her daughter’s words for a moment and concluded that what she said was
reasonable. She suppressed her anger and looked at her. “You have matured a lot after being in there
for half a month!” she eximed, relieved.
Margaret became enraged when the incident was mentioned, and she secretly sneered.
In the evening, Sofia called the Ziegler family again and apologized to Quincy on behalf of Zachary and
Winnie.
Margaret arrived at Juxshire Primary School early the next morning with a fruit basket and other gifts.
She imed that she wanted to apologize to Yuliana.
The security guard at the school gate recognized her and refused her entry.
Scarlett, who was standing next to Margaret, said softly, “Marge came here today to apologize to Ms.
Livingstone. Additionally, I also came to see my cousin, who is a student in Ms. Livingstone’s ss.
Don’t be concerned. I promise Marge will not cause any problems today!”
Margaret agreed and stated, “I apologize. What I did was wrongst time. I’ve reflected on my
mistakes. I came here to apologize sincerely to Ms. Livingstone!”
The security guard didn’t dare to be careless because the headmaster had previously chastised him.
He then looked up Yuliana’s phone number in the school directory. However, Yuliana did not answer his
call. Scarlett tried to persuade the security guard once more. Finally, he saw their sincerity and took
them in personally. If anything went wrong, he could put a stop to it right away.
When the security guard brought them to the office, Yuliana had just returned from the bathroom when
she noticed the three people standing at the door from a distance and stopped for a few seconds
before walking
over.
The security guard exined the situation in advance, “Ms. Livingstone, this girl said she came here to
apologize to you. You didn’t pick up the phone when I called, so I brought her in because I don’t think
she has any malicious intent.”
Yuliana was well aware that the security guards were in a difficult situation as well. They couldn’t afford
to offend any of the students at this school who came from a prestigious family background.
Yuliana nodded and looked at Scarlett, who smiled and nodded at her. Then, Yuliana only looked at
Margaret.
Margaret handed Yuliana the items she had prepared and smiled as she said, “Yuliana, please ept
my heartfelt apologies. I hope you’ll be able to forgive me!”
Yuliana didn’t ept her peace offerings. She looked at her indifferently and said, “You’ve already
apologized You don’t have to make another trip here. As for these things, you can bring them back!”
She was about to walk into the office after she said that.
Margaret moved quickly and stood in front of her. “Aside from apologizing, I have something else to tell
you!”
Yuliana frowned slightly and looked at her without answering.
Margaret continued, “On the first day of the next month, Mr. Sce’s birthday will be held at Rhodes
Hotel. I wonder if Christopher will bring you to the party with him!”
A moment of doubt shed across Yuliana’s face.
She had no idea Zachary was nning a birthday party. If she remembered correctly, his 68th birthday
was not this year
Margaret couldn’t help but smile again when she saw Yuliana’s reaction “Did Christopher not tell you
about 197
