“If it weren't for the fact that Fel is marrying into the Lowen family soon, would they still come?” shequeried.

A smug smile bloomed on Candace's face as she continued, “You have no idea just how jealousFrancine's and Christina's families are. If their daughters could marry someone like Patrick, they'd besmiling even in their sleep! And yet you're still telling me to be cautious and not publicize theirmarriage.”

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. As Patrick's future mother-in-law, many socialiteswould be falling over themselves to butter her up.

However, she didn't dare to go around spreading rumors as she didn't want Zachary criticizing her.

Zachary sighed. “Don't forget the last time Felicia got engaged but broke it off after. I was utterlyembarrassed. This time, I won't consider her married into the Lowen family until she obtains themarriage certificate.”

He was fully aware that it wasn't easy for Felicia to hold down a man like Patrick.

If it weren't for Hector, Patrick would have just ignored Felicia.

This was something Zachary knew well as he had done a thorough investigation.

Candace was furious when she was reminded of the previous incident. The family had sent ahousekeeper to ask for Felicia's hand in marriage, a complete disrespect to her daughter.

Zachary's words made sense to her.

She got up and hugged him, saying in a coquettish voice, “Darling, you're so smart! You see througheverything. Fel and I will keep a low profile. Don't worry!”

She nuzzled against him, looking up at him seductively.

Zachary grew flustered and narrowed his eyes.

“I'll go and take a shower. Once I'm done, I'll deal with you.”

Candace shyly gave him a little shove. “You're such a meanie. I'll be waiting!”

After Zachary went into the bathroom, she quickly headed to Felicia's room. Felicia was already lying inbed and sat up when she heard the door open.

“What is it, Mom?” She let out a yawn. After an entire day of pretending to be ladylike and being kepton her toes while accompanying Hector, she was completely exhausted.

“Fel, I came to ask you something. Why didn't Old Mrs. Lowen come today?”

It didn't make sense that Hector showed up and Alice didn't on a day like this.

“Does she not approve of your marriage?” Candace asked.

Alice certainly looked imposing and assertive. Although Felicia wouldn't have a mother-in-law after

marrying into the Lowen family, there was still Alice, a hard-to-please grandmother-in-law.

Felicia was very tired and didn't want to talk at all.

But when she heard the Lowen family being mentioned, she suddenly became invigorated.

“That old lady likes Gwendolyn. Don't you know that already, Mom?”

When Felicia had attended the socialite gathering previously, she ran into Gwendolyn, who Alice hadtaken with her there. Wasn't that her basically admitting that Gwendolyn was her granddaughter-in-law?

Naturally, Candace was aware that Alice preferred Gwendolyn.

Her face darkened as she asked, “But Old Mr. Lowen already approves of you. She can't go againsthim, right?”

I have to know if Old Mrs. Lowen or Old Mr. Lowen is the one who has the final say in that family. If it'sthe former, then Fel would have a hard time once she marries Patrick.

Felicia shook her head. “I don't know either. I feel like the three of them are very highly regarded in thefamily. That old lady is a woman, so she should obey her husband's every word, but Old Mr. Lowen isalso afraid of her. But then again, he has a temper, so sometimes Old Mrs. Lowen would be afraid ofhim too.”

In any case, every member of the Lowen family is a powerful figure. There is no single person that theywould faithfully obey.

Candace understood now. Hector and Alice had mutual respect for each other, so buttering up to onlyone of them wouldn't work. Candace and Felicia would have to work their magic on both.

She let out a chuckle. “Fel, replace out what Old Mrs. Lowen's interests are. What does she like to do inher free time? We'll begin our attack from there.”

I'm very sure we'll be able to get Old Mrs. Lowen on our side by buttering her up!

Felicia nodded. “Okay, I'll keep an eye out.”
