Chapter 261 - 261 260 Cant Surpass the Dead Payne Family Dinner
?Chapter 261: 260 Can’t Surpass the Dead? Payne Family Dinner Party Chapter 261: 260 Can’t Surpass the Dead? Payne Family Dinner Party “The cold night air chills the pillow, and the frost makes one timid to put on the morning makeup.”
“It’s the season when it’s too cold to even want to get out of bed, but the Payne Family’s banquet is just around the corner, and Zoe Bell went to Payne Corps two days ago to pick up a ring that was custom made for her.”
As soon as she got out of the car, Assistant Law greeted her with a pleasing smile, “You’ve arrived?”

“Quite happy, I really like it,” Zoe said, exchanging pleasantries briefly with her before leaving. Celine Payne watched Assistant Law tending to her with great care, and her hand by her side subconsciously tightened a bit.
The cousin sure treats her well.
It’s one thing to send a trusted assistant to receive her, but to escort all the way to the car too.
After Zoe had left and Assistant Law returned, Celine casually inquired, “Assistant Law, my brother seems to pay extra attention to this Mrs. Hale.”
Assistant Law chuckled reluctantly, “Well, Little Wyatt is helping our family design the old mansion, and since she is Mr. Hale’s wife, there was an incident last time where she was intentionally troubled and felt aggrieved. We dare not neglect her this time…”
