Flirted Wrong, Married Right-Chapter 822: Not Quite Appropriate

And it was always certain that the Sinclair family would attend such gatherings.

In the past, whenever Evelyn Clayton was in the country and happened to coincide with such occasions, Pauline Warren was very keen on having Evelyn join them.

In the name of, "A family has to be whole and together."

Now she can finally realize that wish.

Nowadays, Evelyn Clayton is also planning to gradually enter Aethelburg’s high society, following the Sinclair family.

This is quite a good opportunity.

"By the way, speaking of banquets, there is indeed a wedding coming up," Pauline Warren said, quickening her pace as she spoke, "A high school classmate of Shane’s, whose family is also quite prominent in Aethelburg, is getting married at the end of the month. The wedding is at a manor on the outskirts, and they’ve sent us an invitation. You should go with Shane!"

Naturally, Evelyn Clayton wouldn’t refuse; she just instinctively asked, "What about you and Dad?"

"Oh, their sort of weddings are all young people. We, the older generation, will be gathering elsewhere," Pauline said with a chuckle, "You and Shane go together, just right to meet his friends."

Evelyn instinctively felt that attending a wedding together seemed somewhat inappropriate, but hearing Pauline talk about meeting friends, she merely assumed that Pauline wanted Shane to have her as company and didn’t think much more about it.

She glanced at her schedule and joked, "Will my brother be willing? What if he wants to bring another date?"

"What other date?" Pauline’s voice rose, "If he dares to bring someone else, I’ll break his leg! Don’t worry, Evelyn; he’s definitely bringing you. Let’s do this, come home early today; Mom will take you to pick a dress."

After hanging up, Evelyn pondered Pauline’s words and felt that something was a bit off, though she couldn’t pinpoint what.

What she didn’t know was that Shane also received a call from Pauline soon after.

Shane was busy with the equity transfer documents, with no less than ten stable agreements to sign, so when he got Pauline’s call, he was somewhat perfunctory.

Pauline instantly noticed and expressed her dissatisfaction, "What are you busy with? Can’t you speak properly with your mom?"

Shane paused his actions, somewhat helpless, "Of course, I’m signing the agreement for transferring shares to Evelyn. What’s up, Mom?"

"Why do you have to sign them now? Can you not finish signing them when you’re back to work in the afternoon? Do you have to rush to complete all your work by noon?"

Pauline fired off three questions in a row, making Shane both laugh and cry.

Shane quickly stopped her, "I get it, Mom; I’ll sign them this afternoon."

"That’s more like it! It’s already noon, why haven’t you gone to lunch with Evelyn yet? Stop working during meal times, both of you! After I finish talking to you, you should quickly find Evelyn and get lunch, understand?"

"Alright, got it." Shane laughed helplessly, "What do you want to say?"

Only then did Pauline get to the point, "At the end of the month, your high school classmate, with the last name Zhong, isn’t he having his wedding at a manor on the outskirts? Make sure you bring Evelyn with you, got it?"

Shane froze, then couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

"Mom, don’t you know what it means for us young people to bring a date to a wedding?" Shane cleared his throat, "Bringing Evelyn might not be suitable."

Pauline immediately began to lecture him again.

"Why wouldn’t I know? I’m not that old yet!" Pauline snorted, "I’m telling you to bring Evelyn for that very reason!"
