Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 646

Cynthia was silent.

Yvonne's words had clearly caught Nelly completely off guard. A flicker of bewilderment crossed her face before she composed herself.

Nelly had been the matriarch of the Powell family for many years; she wasn't someone who could be rattled by a few words. Mignon might be a fool, but that didn't mean Nelly was.

Nelly maintained her decorous smile, unruffled and calm.

"I think you've misunderstood, Ms. Jones. Mignon is perfectly healthy, mentally and physically, and has always been emotionally stable. She was just very angry today. You may not know this, but Bennett's mother and I are good friends. Emma is very fond of Mignon and has always wanted her as a daughter-in-law. It's a match we'd all be happy to see."

"This morning, someone whispered in Mignon's ear that they saw Bennett leaving your room. Any girl would lose her composure if she heard her fiancé was having an improper relationship with another woman. I'm sure you can understand that, Ms. Jones."

"Are the Thompsons and the Powells officially engaged? How could I have not heard about something so major?" Yvonne replied with feigned shock, even turning to Cynthia for confirmation.

"Ms. Scott, have you heard anything? Or received an invitation?"

"No," Cynthia said. She certainly wasn't going to lie for Nelly.

Cynthia had only arranged this meeting as a favor to Marshall.
