771 Impressing Her Sister-in-law

It seems everything was happening in turns. First, it was Marcel trying to make a good first impression on his in-laws and currently, she was the one trying to impress his sister over breakfast 

"So you're Chloe, right?" She told the girl, "Your brother was not himself after your abduction and did everything possible to get you back. It's nice to know that you are home now and bonding." 

And her efforts to start a conversation - which was usually the pathway to great friendships - with the girl was met with silence. Arianna suddenly wished that she hadn't said a word, because the atmosphere now was awkward. Her lips were pressed into a thin line, nonetheless, Arianna gave a fake smile when her gaze connected with the girl's.

Unlike Rose, who was younger - and kinder - Chloe was a teenager, and if Arianna understood how the mind of girls her age works and the snobbish aura that she was giving out, she would say the girl didn't like her.
