Just thinking about her daughter Milly getting Mr. Lucas's favor made her beam.
Old Madam Gray's face instantly creased into a smile from ear to ear.
"Milly, you must make us proud on this opportunity!"
"With such a great opportunity, if you could soar into the sky and become a phoenix... Don't forget to take back the Gray family for your grandmother!"
"Enough, Mom. We're way past talking about the Gray family. If Milly does get Mr. Lucas's favor, not just one, even ten Gray families can be retrieved."
Upon hearing Rowena's words, Madam Gray's eyes turned into thin lines with laughter, "Yes, yes, indeed. Our Milly is the capable one. I knew I doted on her for good reason."
"Of course."
Rowena nodded in agreement.
"But Mom, don't forget the purpose of our visit today. If that little slut Lily Gray comes to mess things up later, you have to show her your authority as a grandmother and suppress her."
"If you handle this well, Mrs. Lucas will surely look at us with new eyes!"
