Snatched A Billionaire To Be My Husband by Shabi's pen

Chapter 195 Coming for Her

As soon as Cecilia spoke, the merry atmosphere died out

almost instantly.

It was apparent that Cecilia didn’t approve of Cora, her potential daughter-in-law.

“Mom!” Tyler quickly reminded Cecilia of the occasion, well

aware of the situation, much like everyone else.

Cecilia didn’t retort and proceeded to tell the others to enjoy

the meal.

Everyone shied away from the topic of marriage, maintaining a cheerful disposition while continuing to

enjoy their meal at

the dinner table.

Nonetheless, Cora felt disrespected even though she never

planned on marrying into the Cooper family to begin with.

Consequently, she was no longer as engaged in conversations as before, only offering perfunctory

answers to questions about herself and chewing on her food, her attention mainly

on her phone.

Thus, she immediately saw the message Byron sent her:

Thus, she immediately saw the message Byron sent her:

[Come out!]

Cora couldn’t help but frown, wondering what he meant.

Before she could ask for clarification, Byron sent another

message: [Don’t make me go get you at the Cooper Villa!]

Cora was confounded by the suddenness of it: [Are you outside the Cooper Villa?]

Yet, upon sending the message, Cora felt certain that he was

indeed outside.

Knowing Byron was one to follow through on his word, she

was certain he would come to get her if she didn’t go out right

away.

In that case, their relationship would be exposed.

While she didn’t care much about her reputation, she didn’t

want to implicate Tyler or make him a topic for gossip.

Thus, she promptly put down her fork, saying, “I’m full. I should be leaving.”

Her words immediately drew everyone’s attention.

Tyler was the first to insist she stay. “Cora, you’ve barely eaten.

Why are you leaving?”

Cecilia also chimed in at the right moment. “These dishes may not be extravagant, but they were

carefully prepared. Miss Lane, please stay until you’ve had your share.”

Though it sounded like a suggestion for Cora to stay and eat, it was also a subtle criticism of Cora’s

apparent refusal to finish her meal before leaving, hinting that Cora thought the food was inadequate.

The others at the table exchanged glances, understanding

that Cecilia wasn’t just dissatisfied with her future

daughter-in-law. She might even object to Cora being with Tyler at all.

They all speculated that there might be upcoming conflicts

between Tyler and Cecilia, but no one expected Tyler to

address the issue directly in front of everyone in Cora’s

defense. “Cora, if my mother’s words upset you, I apologize on

her behalf.”

Cecilia wore a livid expression. “Tyler, what is the meaning of

this? Are you defying me?”

In an instant, tension filled the air, and sparks flew as the

mother and son confronted each other. Tyler was about to say something. However, Cora hastily pulled

him back and then

faced Cecilia with a smile.

“Mrs. Cecilia Cooper, in truth, I don’t find the food

unappetizing. I merely felt my presence might have upset

you.”

Cecilia perceived that as part of her manipulative strategy, so she was still unfriendly. “Your hasty

departure is what will further upset us. Isn’t this just so you can make Tyler feel guilty toward you?”

“Mrs. Cecilia Cooper, you must’ve misunderstood something. Tyler and I are just ordinary friends. He

saw that I was alone and helpless on Christmas Eve, so he kindly invited me for dinner. I thoughtlessly

agreed and came here. It was my thick skin that led to this awkward situation.”

Cora took the opportunity to clarify her relationship with Tyler, anticipating that her relationship with

Byron might eventually be exposed, so she didn’t want to put Tyler in a difficult position.

Cecilia was still glowering at her.

However, having experienced the Lane family’s downfall, she was already used to being on the

receiving end of such hostility and ridicule. Cecilia’s mistreatment of her was nothing compared to

those, so she remained unfazed.

After conveying her thoughts, Cora offered an apologetic

smile and left.

Staying any longer might result in Byron actually breaking into the house to get her.
