"What's the meaning of this,mom?"Mason asks,his voice firm."Harper Reese is my woman and she has every right to attend our family banquet."
He threw a deadly glare at his relatives,shutting them up instantly.
"Some women are totally shameless,always scheming,plotting and misleading others into thinking that they are the Reeds family's daughter-in-law.We're all adults here,so don't be fooled by these type of manipulative women!"
I sneered.I swear,if I could smack him from where I was,I would.How dare he say such lies about me?
How could they even listen to him and conclude in my absence?It seemed like disliking someone gave one the right to tell lies about them.
I didn't want to see Mason's face,but I caught Harper's subtle,but almost visible triumphant smile.She was enjoying this.
Just then,Mason's phone rings.It was my best friend,Skylar Wade.
"Mason Reed,what the hell did you do to Peyton?Where did you hide her?"Skylar's said,rambling into the phone.Her voice was urgent and berserk.
He laughed,his voice losing its warmth,"Skylar,stop with all the pretense.I know that Peyton is with you.Or are we still playing the missing card?"
