Chapter 316: What Does He Mean?
Alice Turner’s words made Lily Turner’s already tense nerves even tighter. She unconsciously gripped the quilt and bit her lip, saying, "Sis! Just say what you need to say, I promise I won’t get angry or emotional."
What trouble had that guy caused for her again? Why was her sister speaking to her so cautiously?
"You know Ryan Taylor, right?"
After hearing Lily Turner’s assurance, Alice Turner began to talk about the matter.
"Yes, I know him! What about him?" Just as Lily Turner finished speaking, she suddenly thought of something and asked, "Was his sister Evelyn Taylor also there tonight?"
She waited for the person on the other end of the phone to confirm her suspicion, and she was quite confident that she was very close to the truth.
Hearing this, Alice Turner was amazed, "You know Evelyn Taylor?!"
Thinking that Lily Turner and Evelyn Taylor might have already met, Alice Turner began to worry.
"Not only do I know her, but I’ve also had a few encounters with her." Lily Turner spoke very tactfully and succinctly. Those encounters were not as simple as she made them sound.
Although she had thought about this before, hearing Lily Turner say it herself still surprised Alice Turner, and her worry deepened, "She didn’t give you any trouble, did she?"
Knowing she was Lily Turner’s sister, that woman still acted like that, with no intention to avoid or hide anything. It was clear that woman did it on purpose.
"Sis! I know what you’re worried about, but don’t worry. I’m not that naive girl who was kept in the dark anymore."
If she guessed right, Evelyn Taylor must have acted affectionately towards Easton Holmes, otherwise her sister wouldn’t have called so urgently.
Lily Turner took a deep breath and spoke again before Alice could, "Just relax and go have fun with them. Don’t worry about me."
She thought her sister was sneaking out to call her and didn’t think much about it.
"You’re not here, so I sat inside for a bit and then came out. I’m getting ready to head home."
Even though Lily Turner had said that, Alice Turner still felt uneasy, "Easton’s mom is so against you two being together. Is it because of Evelyn Taylor?"
This was a thought that just occurred to her, and she thought it was very likely given the situation. That woman was so brazen; she must have Easton’s mom as her backing.
Lily Turner didn’t want to hide it from Alice Turner, so she gently nodded, "Yes! Evelyn Taylor is most likely the daughter-in-law his mom has in mind."
After several interactions, she could see that her mother-in-law really liked that woman, and they grew up together.
His mom might have had such thoughts when they were still kids, otherwise that woman wouldn’t call his mom "Mother Holmes."
Other women call his mom "Mother Holmes," but she, as the official daughter-in-law, is disliked even when calling her "Aunt."
Is she really that annoying to people?
First, it was Henry Thompson’s mom, Amber Wood, and now it’s his mom. Even her own mom doesn’t like her.
Why? Why on earth is this happening?
Is it because she’s too unattractive?
As soon as they see her, they start disliking her without caring about what kind of person she is. They don’t even seem to want to get to know her.
"What does he mean by that?"
Even after figuring out the truth, Alice Turner didn’t feel relieved; instead, she became increasingly worried.
