Chapter 1400: Chapter 1314: The situation of the Rowlett family is much worse than that of the Lawrence family.
"It’s not a prank call."
"Not a prank call?" Aria Rowlett looked puzzled, her eyes filled with confusion. "Baby, what do you really want to ask me?"
Seeing the puzzled look on Aria’s face, Joanna Lawrence guessed that Lady Octavia Heath probably had not contacted her yet.
Perhaps, Lady Octavia didn’t know that her oldest son Brandon was dating Aria.
But, if Brandon brought Aria to Jeremy’s banquet tonight, Lady Octavia would definitely know about her.
Thinking of this, Joanna frowned.
Because she knew, Lady Octavia would absolutely not like Aria.
What Lady Octavia wanted was a daughter-in-law who matched in social and economic status.
Aria wouldn’t satisfy her.
But she could not tell Aria directly about this situation.
If she frightened off Aria, what would Brandon do when he looked for her.
Perhaps, she was overthinking it.
With Brandon there, even if Lady Octavia didn’t approve, she wouldn’t treat Aria poorly in front of him.
Moreover, it was at a banquet, everyone was watching.
Lady Octavia also had her image to consider.
"It’s nothing. I was just worried that due to Brandon’s status, you’d be targeted."
Aria’s face changed: "Do you mean someone has targeted Brandon? Is he facing any danger now?"
"Aria, don’t worry. Brandon is surrounded by a lot of bodyguards, all of them seasoned specialists, they will definitely protect him. Even if someone is watching him, they won’t be able to harm him. I’m afraid that, if these people cannot touch him, they’ll turn their attention towards you instead."
Upon hearing her explanation, Aria seems to relax all of a sudden.
As long as Brandon was fine, everything was good.
As for herself, she wasn’t scared at all.
"Ha ha ha, don’t worry about me. The house here is very safe, and every time I go out, he arranges bodyguards for me. He said those bodyguards are all formidable people who can protect me well."
"Hmm, that’s good."
Joanna was silent for a while, thinking about the banquet tonight, she couldn’t help but ask: "Aria, are you going to attend the banquet tonight?"
"Of course. The banquet tonight is specifically for Jeremy, I definitely have to attend."
Going to the Heath family meant that she would meet Brandon’s family.
Aria was actually very torn about this.
She didn’t want to meet Brandon’s family so early.
She and Brandon had just confirmed their relationship not too long ago.
Meeting the parents so early seemed a bit too soon for her.
Furthermore, she was a little bit scared.
She didn’t know what kind of people Brandon’s parents and other family members are, whether they’re easy to get along with.
"Baby, tell me about Brandon’s family," Aria asked after some thought, "Are his parents easy to get along with? What’s your relationship with his parents like? Do they value social status a lot?"
The situation at the Rowlett family was always a lingering worry for Aria.
If the situation at the Lawrence family was bad.
Then the situation at the Rowlett family is many times worse than that of the Lawrence family.
Regardless of how ill-treated Joanna was by her stepmother, at least her father loved her dearly.
But her own family...
Aria clenched her fists and pursed her lips.
Joanna was silent for a moment before saying, "Wealthy and influential families usually value family status, don’t they? According to Ashton Heath, Dad went abroad for a study tour and probably won’t be back until the end of the year. As for mother-in-law, I also followed Ashton back to the family’s old mansion only two or three times, I don’t have much contact with her."
"Grandma is quite nice and warm. As for the others, I’m not too sure."
