“Why is this Madam here so early today?”

Usually, when she invited Mrs. Anderson to the banquet, she would probably only come once or twice out of ten times, and she would only come later. Mrs. Ford glanced at Mrs. Hall meaningfully. “I’m afraid they’re not here for you.”

Mrs. Hall recalled the scene of her meeting with Old Madam Anderson and shook her head in confusion. “She doesn’t seem like that kind of person.”

Mrs. Hall was a career maniac, so she admired Joline who had fought hard in the business world. In comparison, Joline wasn’t really enthusiastic about her.

In any case, since they were here, they had to come out to welcome them. As the two of them came out of the banquet hall, Mrs. Hall suddenly remembered something. “I heard that Mr. Anderson is engaged?”

Old Madam Anderson had sent her an engagement invitation, but because the engagement time was set in a hurry and her schedule was already full. She only had time to get someone to send her an engagement.

Mrs. Ford nodded. “Yes, he’s engaged with the Lambert family’s daughter.”

Mrs. Hall wasn’t in the same circle as them, so she didn’t know much about the Lambert family. Since Old Madam Anderson was going to attend the event with Caroline, it seemed like they would have to deal with each other in the future.

So, Mrs. Hall asked, “Have you seen that child? What kind of woman is she?”

“The current Lambert family is just like that after the death of the previous generation. As for the young lady of the Lambert family…” Mrs. Ford thought of the rumors in the circle and frowned. It was obvious that she did not like Caroline, who was always troubled by right and wrong. “I only saw her once at the engagement banquet. She looked decent on that day. As for the other aspects, I’m not sure.”

Mrs. Hall noticed her frowning reaction. She raised her eyebrows slightly and thought that her friend was a relatively conservative person. It seemed that the future mistress of the Anderson family had done something that she didn’t like.

However, to her surprise, the first person she saw was Caroline. She was a thin and well-behaved little girl.

She maintained a smile on her face as she stood behind Old Madam Anderson.

Other than the initial greeting, she quietly listened to the few elders’ small talk. She did not say anything else, nor did she look around.

Her slender and delicate appearance, like a puppet, made Mrs. Hall think of the women in the rich circle who clung to their husbands like cobblestones.

Mrs. Hall had always been a self-reliant person. Even though her husband had been elected, and as his wife, she had to accompany him everywhere and help him deal with many things, she still retained her identity as a lawyer. She also hoped to use Mr. Hall’s influence to complete many important and meaningful things.

That was why she had always admired capable and courageous women. She didn’t have a good impression of girls who liked to use their youth, beauty, and body as a bargaining chip.

It could only be said that the original Caroline’s weak appearance made her disguise much more effective. As long as she restrained her aura and sharpness, she was indeed very deceptive just by looking at her appearance.

So, after Mrs. Hall looked at Caroline curiously, she looked away. Caroline glanced at her from the corner of her eye. She could clearly sense that the two ladies in front of her were not very satisfied with her.

Caroline didn’t know what the reason was. She recalled that she didn’t offend them, so it was more likely to be a historical problem left behind by the original body.

This Mrs. Hall didn’t seem to be an easy person to fool, so it probably wouldn’t be easy to get information from her. So, should she create an opportunity to get closer to her?

Caroline was deep in thought. Joline smiled and patted her hand. “I see that the tea garden outside is beautiful and the sun is good. You don’t have to stand here with us as punishment. You can go out for a walk. If you’re interested, you can get someone to give you a small basket and experience picking tea leaves. Their workers can also teach you how to dry tea leaves.”

Seeing how nice Joline was to Caroline, Mrs. Ford knew that Joline really valued Caroline. Thus, she called the butler over and asked him to lead Caroline to the lake. “My two daughters and Julie are playing at the center of the tea forest. You young people should be able to have fun together..”
