Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 186

Meg Wagner's birthday was coming up soon, and Izzy was definitely gonna show up. Phoebe would pick her up personally, and she asked her to bring Ethan along. Ethan said it was cool and that he'd head over after work.

Meg's birthday isn't a big deal or anything. It's just a family dinner at home and Izzy is the only one invited.

When Izzy heard about Meg's birthday, she got a present ready. It was this cool necklace made of agate and diamonds. It was Ethan's idea. He thought they couldn't show up at the Wagner’s empty-handed for the first time, so Izzy had to listen to him.

Phoebe got a look at Izzy's gift and couldn't help saying, "Man, rich people are different, they are always so generous. I bet my mom's gonna give me an earful later."

"Afraid of Meg, are you?" Izzy laughed.

"As if! I'm not scared of her at all."

When they got to the Wagner's, Meg was just sitting in the living room knitting. She spotted Izzy and waved her over right away. Phoebe was already used to this kind of treatment.

"Meg."

Meg took a serious look at Izzy and finally said, "Izzy, you look good. Seems like you've put on some weight."

"Really?" Izzy pinched her own face. She hadn't noticed until Meg mentioned it.

Phoebe chuckled and said, "Izzy, you've definitely gained a bit. Your hubby's doing a great job. You've recovered so well in such a short time after being discharged from the hospital. But be careful, keep this up and you'll lose your figure."

Meg gave Phoebe a glare and told Izzy, "Don't listen to her nonsense. You're great now. I've seen you grow up. You were chubby for a while when you were little and then you've been pretty skinny. From my experience, people with your body type won't get too fat."

Izzy didn't take it to heart and just nodded. Phoebe was giggling on the side, and Meg said to her, "Aren't you ashamed of yourself? You seem to have high EQ, how come you're still single?"

Phoebe stood up and said, "I'm not hanging out with you guys anymore; I'm gonna prep the meal."

Phoebe's cooking skills were pretty dope. She usually took on the role of head chef when they have guests over, with the household staff helping out.
