Chapter 1426: Chapter 1340: What daughter-in-law, don’t talk nonsense
Thanks to Joanna’s heads-up, she didn’t feel too upset about it.
She already knew that her family background was not matching with Brandon Heath’s, and that his family would definitely disdain her.
Not everyone in the Heath family would accept her.
Having Madam Heath liking her was enough to satisfy her.
However, regardless of Lady Octavia’s attitude towards her, Aria Rowlett still politely greeted her: "Hello, Madam White."
Lady Octavia glanced at her indifferently and coldly said: "As a guest, enjoy yourself, Ms. Aria."
After saying that, she ignored Aria and turned to Madam Heath: "Mom, I will go attend to the guests."
Madam Heath frowned but refrained from saying anything to Lady Octavia in front of so many people.
She could only nod and say: "Alright, you go ahead."
Lady Octavia then turned around to find her usual group of best friends.
When they saw her, they pulled her over and began to ask: "Who are those two girls? Are they your daughter-in-laws? Your two sons are quite something, taking care of their lifelong matters without making a sound."
"But those two daughter-in-laws look unfamiliar; which noble family’s well-bred ladies are they from?"
"Are they really married? Why wasn’t there any wedding ceremony?"
Lady Octavia didn’t know if her best friends were genuinely curious or just mocking her.
Either way, it sounded like mockery to her.
She said with a dark face: "Don’t talk nonsense about daughter-in-laws. Isn’t it normal to bring a female companion to a banquet?"
"Female companions?" One of her best friends glanced over at Madam Heath and raised a doubt: "But I just saw Madam Heath giving her a very expensive bracelet. That bracelet is worth at least several million dollars, would she casually give it to a female companion?"
"Yeah, your sons have never brought a woman to a party before. They don’t seem like ordinary female companions."
"The two girls look quite young and pretty. Just don’t know about their background."
"The two young masters of the Heath family are so outstanding that they certainly wouldn’t be interested in someone not equally outstanding. But these two girls do look unfamiliar. Octavia, do you know which family’s well-bred ladies they are?"
Lady Octavia’s face grew darker and darker as she listened.
Of course, she couldn’t reveal the true identity of Joanna and Aria to these sisters.
If she did, it would be a laughingstock.
What would she say?
Telling them that her two sons found actresses?
That would make people laugh their heads off.
"I’ve said it, they are just companions my sons brought back. Don’t ask me about anything else, I don’t know either. Ashton and Brandon’s marriage partners must be well-bred ladies matching in social and economic status with the Heath family; not any random women."
"Is that so?" Her best friends were obviously not convinced.
They had all seen Madam Heath give the bracelet to Aria earlier.
If it were just a normal female companion, Madam Heath would never give a gift.
However, seeing that Lady Octavia was visibly in a bad mood, they wisely stopped asking more questions.

At tonight’s banquet, many brought their daughters along.
At first, they thought that the Heath brothers were still single and felt that their daughters might still have a chance.
If they were lucky enough to be chosen by one of the Heath brothers, they’d marry into the Heath family, and then they’d become family with the Heaths.
