Chapter 164
Then, Felicia whispered something in her mother's ear, and her mother immediately smiled and nodded at me.
"Hello, hello."
The woman next to us sizedup and then suddenly asked, "Are you Felicia's friend? What does your family
do?"
"My... My family sells fruit."
It was a half-truth.
"Oh, you sell fruit? Do you drive a cart to the market?"
| shook my head. "No."
"Ah, so you sell on the street? Selling on the street has no future. You'll never make it big."

The woman let out a disdainful hum and then turned to her two flashy friends, signaling us to move forward. We
all got into a rundown SUV parked by the roadside.
With so many people in one car, it was obviously cramped. The car smelled indescribably bad, and the
combination of body odor and bad breath nearly madepass out.
Finally, when we reached the school entrance, | waited for Felicia and Laura to alight from the car before |
followed suit. As soon as | stepped out, | took a deep inhale.
When Felicia saw my reaction, she couldn't help but laugh. "The car smelled bad, right?"
| whispered, "I almost died!"
She immediately burst out laughing. How dare she find joy in my suffering.
At that moment, Louis and Veronica, who had been waiting at the school gate, approached.
When Veronica saw her mother, she wasn't as emotional as Felicia. She held her mother's hand, exchanged a
few casual words, and started introducing Louis.
Louis was dressed up that day. He even wore a gold necklace, which madechuckle.
| whispered to Felicia, "It looks like Louis is serious about Veronica. He's all dressed up to meet his future mother-
in-law."
Felicia whispered back, "He borrowed that necklace. Last night, Veronica ran around to several dorms to borrow
things."
"Oh."
That showed how much Louis cared about Veronica, which | respected. He might not be great, but he treated his
girlfriend well.
"Darling, letintroduce you. This is my mother. You can just call her Mrs. Brown: These are my mother's two
cousins, Madam Aubrie and Madam Scarlett. You can call them that, too. And this is Felicia's mom. You can call
her Mrs. Cylon Senior since she's older."
Felicia was taken aback and immediately said, "Veronica, that's not right. He should just call my mother 'Mrs.

Veronica raised an eyebrow and
asked, "What's wrong with that? She's already quite old. Besides, Louis calls my mom 'Mrs. Brown, So if he calls
your mom 'Mrs. Cylon’, what does that make my mom? Don't be so petty, alright? It's really boring!"
"It's not about being petty. My mother-"
Seeing her daughter about to argue with Veronica, Laura quickly intervened, "Forget it, Felicia. It's just an
address. | don't mind. | just cto check on you to ensure you're doing well at school and feel at ease."
"Mom."
The mother and daughter exchanged smiles, not caring about the others around them.
| shot Veronica a cold glance and silently noted her behavior. How dare she disrespect Laura in front of so many
people! | couldn't just let that go.
At that moment, Louis suddenly
said, "Alright, Mrs. Brown, Madam Aubrie, Madam Scarlett, and Mrs. Cylon Senior, you must be hungry after your
long journey. I've already booked a private room at the restaurant. Let's head there and eat!"
