Chapter 156 The Wrong Venue

• Billie's attendance was prompted solely by his son's mention of the Kane family's annual gathering, an event to which they were invited by Meredith. Yet, as they observed Nicholas and his wife's welcoming demeanor and heard their hospitable words, a question nagged at them. Have we mistakenly entered the wrong venue?
• Seth, too, found himself puzzled by the situation. He double-checked Meredith's WhatsApp message, confirming the time and location she had sent him earlier. There was no mistake. Moreover, this was the first time the girl he admired had extended an invitation to him for a banquet. There was no way he would have made such a simple error. He had even made a point to ask his parents to accompany him.
• Why is the Hale family welcoming us? Is it because I previously broke off my friendship with Julian? Did they deliberately wait here to curry favor with Dad?
