Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 416

The Lockwood matriarch's appearance surprised Mrs. Lockwood and the others.

After all, the old woman was an incredibly serious person.

In her world, a "victory dinner" was reserved for major company breakthroughs or for the children achieving some brilliant success.

It certainly wasn't for something like crashing someone else's wedding.

Could it be that she disapproved of their antics and was being sarcastic?

Mrs. Lockwood tiptoed over to her, trying to sound appeasing. "Mom, you don't have to go to the trouble of arranging a celebratory dinner. We're happy, so anything we eat will taste great. Hehehe."

Mrs. Lockwood's laugh was awkward. Old Mrs. Lockwood said with a stern face, "So happy you brought a goose home with you."

"A goose? What goose?"

"You were just honking like one. Who else could it be?"

Mrs. Lockwood was speechless. Someone needed to tell the matriarch her jokes were falling flat.

She felt a bit awkward, but the fact that the old woman was telling dry jokes and offering to host a victory dinner was surprising.

This was completely out of character for the family matriarch.

She was a resolute and decisive woman, one of the pioneering entrepreneurs of the post-war era.

She had married her husband, Edgar Lockwood, the eldest son of the family at the time, when she was very young, during a period of turmoil and war.

The Lockwood family was a well-established clan with a century-long history, and at that time, they were being watched by various powerful factions. One wrong move could have led to their utter destruction.
