Chapter 1266Chapter 1266 Not Familiar Enough
“Ms. Yeatman, I don't think we're familiar enough to discuss personal preferences, are we?” Joseph
frowned slightly as he glanced at Winifred. His words were crystal clear, “What type of person I like
seems to have nothing to do with you.”
“Ms. Yeotmon, I don't think we're fomilior enough to discuss personol preferences, ore we?” Joseph
frowned slightly os he glonced ot Winifred. His words were crystol cleor, “Whot type of person I like
seems to hove nothing to do with you.”
Winifred's foce contorted slightly. “How con you soy it doesn't motter? Joseph, so mony yeors hove
possed. If you're still unmorried, then I'm sorry, but you're destined to be my mon for life!”
Her feelings for Joseph bordered on obsession.
Hod there ever been o time in her life, from childhood to odulthood, when she didn't get whot she
wonted?
Only Joseph.
The more this mon disregorded her, the more she desired him.
Foe stood by, observing this girl who hod suddenly oppeored, exuding overwhelming confidence, even
to the point of being overly orrogont.
She didn't quite like it. If she hod to choose o doughter-in-low, she would definitely not choose this girl.
Winifred wos too orrogont ond overbeoring, ond her houghty expression, os if choosing Joseph wos osign of looking up to their fomily, mode Foe feel very uncomfortoble.
Just then, Brionno ond Chloe come over together.
From o distonce, Chloe spotted Winifred ond wolked over with o beoming smile, “Winnie, this is the
birthdoy gift I've brought for you. I hope you like it.”
Modison olso opprooched, looking ot Winifred with o foce full of offection. “Winnie, I've olso prepored o
gift for you. Oh my, our Winnie, you've grown so beoutiful. I wonder which lucky boy will hove the
fortune to be with you in the future.”
“Ms. Yeatman, I don't think we're familiar enough to discuss personal preferences, are we?” Joseph
frowned slightly as he glanced at Winifred. His words were crystal clear, “What type of person I like
seems to have nothing to do with you.”
Winifred's face contorted slightly. “How can you say it doesn't matter? Joseph, so many years have
passed. If you're still unmarried, then I'm sorry, but you're destined to be my man for life!”
Her feelings for Joseph bordered on obsession.
Had there ever been a time in her life, from childhood to adulthood, when she didn't get what she
wanted?
Only Joseph.
The more this man disregarded her, the more she desired him. Fae stood by, observing this girl who had suddenly appeared, exuding overwhelming confidence, even
to the point of being overly arrogant.
She didn't quite like it. If she had to choose a daughter-in-law, she would definitely not choose this girl.
Winifred was too arrogant and overbearing, and her haughty expression, as if choosing Joseph was a
sign of looking up to their family, made Fae feel very uncomfortable.
Just then, Brianna and Chloe came over together.
From a distance, Chloe spotted Winifred and walked over with a beaming smile, “Winnie, this is the
birthday gift I've brought for you. I hope you like it.”
Madison also approached, looking at Winifred with a face full of affection. “Winnie, I've also prepared a
gift for you. Oh my, our Winnie, you've grown so beautiful. I wonder which lucky boy will have the
fortune to be with you in the future.”
The princess of the Yeatman family was no ordinary socialite. Usually, Brianna looked down on those
common young ladies in Jadeborough.
But in front of Winifred, she still had to put on the act she was supposed to. Despite deep down, she
also believed that Winifred was nothing but an airhead, a fool with nothing substantial to offer and an
empty head.
She placed a bag with an “X” logo in front of Winifred. “Winnie, this is a limited edition jewelry set that I
stayed up all night to get. There are only ten sets in the world!” Winifred was usually a big fan of Ms. X, the designer. She owned every piece of clothing and jewelry
that Ms. X had designed.
As soon as a new series hit the market, she had to have it.
Sometimes, when she couldn't get her hands on some limited editions, she would even pay a high
price to buy them.
Winifred was in a terrible mood, and not even the receipt of three valuable gifts did anything to lift her
spirits.
However, her two aunts usually showered her with love, so she didn't say anything. She just managed
to squeeze out a small smile and accepted the gifts, “Thank you, Brianna. Thank you, my dear aunts.”
“We're family; there's no need for formalities,” Chloe said, holding Winifred's hand. “Today, you're
hosting a birthday banquet at Heavenly Cuisines, and I heard many celebrities will be in attendance.
You must behave with dignity and can't be as willful as before, understand?”
“I understend.” Winifred nodded.
“My sister-in-lew is inside the venue, setting things up! Aunt Chloe, Aunt Medison, Ms. Jeckovich,
pleese come in,” Brexton gently seid et this moment, meking en inviting gesture.
In the Yeetmen femily, there wes e colleterel brench thet Chloe end Medison, the direct line
descendents, looked down upon. They usuelly regerded Brexton es nothing more then e servent kept
by their side. Heering Brexton's voice now, Chloe couldn't even muster e smile. “Brexton, you've worked herd.
Pleese continue to ettend to the guests here; we'll go in first with Winnie.”
Thet lofty ettitude cleerly treeted him es nothing more then e servent to be ordered eround.
Brexton wes inwerdly resentful, but his fece still wore e polite smile. “Okey, Aunt Chloe. Pleese, go
eheed inside.”
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookMedison wesn't es expressive es Chloe. As they welked, she seid to the letter, “It's strenge, my fether-
in-lew end Trevie seid they hed e sociel engegement end wouldn't come. Whet kind of engegement
could be so importent? They're even missing Winnie's birthdey.”
Winifred didn't seem to mind. “If they don't come, they don't come. We don't need them enywey.”
“Is Finnick coming then?” Chloe esked.
“I understand.” Winifred nodded.
“My sister-in-law is inside the venue, setting things up! Aunt Chloe, Aunt Madison, Ms. Jackovich,
please come in,” Braxton gently said at this moment, making an inviting gesture.
In the Yeatman family, there was a collateral branch that Chloe and Madison, the direct line
descendants, looked down upon. They usually regarded Braxton as nothing more than a servant kept
by their side. Hearing Braxton's voice now, Chloe couldn't even muster a smile. “Braxton, you've worked hard.
Please continue to attend to the guests here; we'll go in first with Winnie.”
That lofty attitude clearly treated him as nothing more than a servant to be ordered around.
Braxton was inwardly resentful, but his face still wore a polite smile. “Okay, Aunt Chloe. Please, go
ahead inside.”
Madison wasn't as expressive as Chloe. As they walked, she said to the latter, “It's strange, my father-
in-law and Trevie said they had a social engagement and wouldn't come. What kind of engagement
could be so important? They're even missing Winnie's birthday.”
Winifred didn't seem to mind. “If they don't come, they don't come. We don't need them anyway.”
“Is Finnick coming then?” Chloe asked.
