Chapter 292: Chapter 294: It will only hurt the relationship between Aria and her kid!

If she refused again, she would seem unreasonable.

She hesitated for a moment and looked up at Ashton Heath.

Ashton Heath met her gaze and guessed what she was worried about. He answered for her, "Grandma wants to hold a banquet to invite your acquaintances, of course, that’s no problem. Just let Joanna and me know when you’ve set the date. As for having dinner together with both families, we’ll let you know when we’ve decided on a date."

"Then it’s settled."

Lady Octavia and Madam Heath stood by the fountain pool, watching the Rolls-Royce slowly drive into the night until it disappeared from sight.

Madam Heath reluctantly withdrew her gaze.

Turning to look at Lady Octavia, who also had a reluctant look on her face, she thought for a moment and said seriously, "Octavia, what’s the matter with you today? Do you have any issues with Joanna?"

Lady Octavia was still immersed in the sadness of her son leaving. Hearing this, she suddenly snapped back to her senses.

Her eyes held a hint of panic, "Mom, why would you think that? What could I possibly have against Joanna?"

Madam Heath stared at her steadily, her eyes full of suspicion, "You really don’t have any issues? Then why didn’t you accept the broth Joanna offered you? Octavia, don’t think that because you’re a mother-in-law now, you have to show your new daughter-in-law who’s boss. You know what kind of person your son is. If you treat his wife like this, do you think he won’t mind?"

Lady Octavia was upset by these words, "What could he possibly mind? I’m his mother."

Could it be that he would get angry with his own mother for an outsider?

Madam Heath frowned, her expression becoming serious, "So what if you’re his mother? Don’t blame me for not warning you, but with your son’s temper, if you really anger him, you’ll only hurt your mother-son relationship!"

"Don’t you know your son’s temper? The woman he’s finally interested in means the world to him, he cherishes her so much that he wouldn’t even let his own mother upset her. Octavia, if you still want to maintain a good relationship with your son, try to be more loving and treat your daughter-in-law well."

"Even if you’re dissatisfied in your heart, don’t show it in front of Ashton. Did you notice how much colder he was towards you today than usual? Even I could see it; do you really think he didn’t notice?"

Lady Octavia’s face changed at Madam Heath’s words.

Her son had indeed been colder to her this time.

He didn’t seem as close to her as before when he came home.

Especially after she deliberately didn’t accept the bowl of broth Joanna handed her, his attitude became much colder all of a sudden.

For a moment, Lady Octavia felt a mix of anger and sadness, as well as a hint of coldness in her heart.

Just because she was a little cold to his wife, he showed his displeasure?

Was this the son she had raised and loved for over twenty years?

"Also, now that Ashton’s lifelong matter has been settled, you shouldn’t think about those pointless things anymore. I’ve already explained things clearly to that girl from the Kelloway family. She’s always been sensible and probably won’t have any more thoughts about Ashton."

Madam Heath saw everything clearly.

She could see Lady Octavia’s dissatisfaction with Joanna and her desire for Rebecca Kelloway to become her daughter-in-law.

That’s why she said so much to Lady Octavia, partly to console her, but also to warn and remind her.

She was very satisfied with her current granddaughter-in-law and didn’t want anyone to cause any trouble for her.
