Too Late, Mr. Cooper: Your Bride Ran with Your Baby novel Chapter 50

Hearing this, Liliana reluctantly agreed.

It was no secret in their social circle that Old Mrs. Kingsley had been in love with Liliana's grandfather when they were young.

Perhaps it was a case of transferred affection.

After Old Mr. Hart passed away, Old Mrs. Kingsley had always treated Liliana like a granddaughter. Sometimes, when she looked at Liliana's face, which bore a slight resemblance to her grandfather's, she would get lost in thought, her eyes filled with a deep sadness and longing.

Liliana despised Sebastian, but she had a soft spot for his grandmother.

No one could truly dislike someone who genuinely cared for them and treated them well.

The next day, at the Kingsley Manor, guests streamed in endlessly.

The old mansion was bustling with activity.

Gabriel led Liliana into the living room. Knowing she hated socializing, he handed her a glass of juice and said softly, "Liliana, why don't you wait for me on the terrace? I'll come find you after I've greeted everyone."

This was the best part of going out with her brother—he handled all the social obligations.

Liliana smiled, happy to be left alone. She took her juice and found a quiet corner to hide in.

She was wearing a simple white dress today with light, elegant makeup that toned down her usual vibrant and bold aura, making her look quiet and gentle, almost understated.

Liliana was casually making her way to the terrace when, just as she rounded a corner, she heard a loud, cheerful voice.

"Isabella, congratulations! You just joined the Cooper Group and you're already in charge of a new company. Linton must really value you!"

"Oh, it's nothing like that. My brother just wanted to give me a chance to learn and gain some experience, so he set up a small company for me to practice with. I'm actually quite nervous, worried I won't do a good job."

"No way!" Sebastian's arrogant voice cut in, laced with a sycophantic tone.

"Isabella, you have a doctorate in economics and you've even studied jewelry design. You're so smart, you'll definitely make the company a huge success!"
