She Is My Daughter In Law
In the blink of an eye, a month flew by. As Susanne’s birthday party was coming up in a few days,
Arielle brought a tailored gown to the older woman.
“Mom, I designed this myself and had someone sew it. Why don’t you give it a try? If it fits, you can
wear it for your birthday party,” Arielle explained with a smile as she pulled the gown out of a bag.
It never crossed Susanne’s mind that Arielle knew how to design clothes. Receiving it in surprise, she
beamed at the latter. “You shouldn’t have. I’m fine with just getting one off the rack.”
Despite her words, Susanne felt very much appreciated and blessed to have such a wonderful
daughter-in-law. In fact, she had more than once lamented at how blind she had been to miss a gem
like Arielle. Fortunately, her son—who had the better eye—insisted on marrying the latter. Otherwise,
there was no way she could ever find someone so caring and filial.
“I’ll go try it on right now.” Upon returning to her room, Susanne was stunned the moment she retrieved
the gown from the bag. It was made from a luxurious fabric, and its silky smooth texture was evident
when she ran her fingers over it. The intricate motifs embroidered on the gown accentuated its already
distinguished air.
Just a touch and she already couldn’t bring herself to put it on.
Twenty minutes later, Susanne emerged wearing the gown. The sight of her sparked a look of
amazement in Arielle’s eyes.
“Mom, you look perfect in it!”
“Sannie, I can’t bring myself to wear this gown out,” Susanne commented with a smile.
“It’s fine. If you like it, I’ll have them tailor a few more for you. You can then wear them as often as you
please,” the beaming Arielle replied.
“In that case, I can’t thank you enough.”
Soon, the day of Susanne’s birthday party arrived. It was held in one of Nightshire Group’s largest
hotels. Even when Arielle was preparing for it, news of the event had already spread like wildfire.
As a result, many guests from all over attended the party. With the hotel’s parking lot filled to the brim,
they had to find paid parking elsewhere.
When Arielle entertained the guests by Susanne’s side, many guests were surprised to see her doing
so as they were cognizant of who she was.
Those who brought their daughters, in particular, complained softly amongst themselves, for they had
intended to matchmake their daughter with Vinson.
As for those few who were close to Susanne, they—upon seeing Arielle walk away—hurried up to the
latter’s side and inquired, “Mrs. Nightshire, why is the Chairman of Moore Group entertaining your
guests with you? How are both of you related?”
That woman was looking to find a suitable partner for her son. Hence, she intended to solicit Susanne’s
help to do so.
Her son was already twenty-eight that year but constantly refused to marry. Thus, when she saw how
pretty and capable Arielle was, she figured that her son would change his mind. Once they were
together, Arielle would take care of the family while he focused on his career. Both of them would then
live out their days in a simple yet fulfilling manner.
Obviously, her scheme didn’t escape Susanne’s sharp eye. With an indifferent yet proud tone, Susanne
replied, “Her? She’s my daughter-in-law, whose wedding will be held soon. Why do you ask?”
