NovelOnlineChapter 427 Attending the Reception At the mention of Celia, Benjamin's eyes darkened, and his face became quite grim.
Susan snorted and also began to complain to Benjamin. "Benjamin, you sent Cece abroad, and she has already suffered so much. When are you going to bring her back? Do you really want me to never meet my daughter again?" Benjamin turned around. His tone was calm as he replied, "Mom, if you want to stay with Celia, I can arrange that for you anytime." At those words, Susan immediately shut up.
Astana, where Cece was, was poor and desolate, with a very bad living environment.
Susan wasn't young anymore. If she were sent to such a place, she might not last a few days before her life was put in danger.
"Benjamin, I didn't mean that. I just miss Cece ... Forget it. She made mistakes. It's okay if you want to punish her a bit. Luckily, I have Jessica with me now." "In that case, Ms. Landon, please take care of her." Looking obedient, Jessica said, "Mr.

Grand Hotel." "Yes, Mr. Hawkins." Once he left, Susan asked, "Ms.
Landon, where are you taking me today?" With a mysterious look, Jessica replied, "You'll find out once we get there." Half an hour later, Jessica appeared at the entrance of Santio Grand Hotel with Susan.
Once they got out of the car, Susan looked at some familiar faces around her, most of whom were wealthy ladies from the upper class. They had used to socialize with Susan quite often.
However, because of Celia's incident, Susan had lost her place in upper-class
society. They had rarely interacted since.
Now that she had suddenly shown up here, Susan felt a bit awkward. She was even afraid of being recognized. She quickly pulled Jessica over and whispered, "Jessica, why did you bring me here?" Jessica patted her hand and explained with a smile, "I heard that most of the people attending tonight's banquet are influential people in Pamore.
"You can take this opportunity to make friends with some wealthy ladies. It might help Mr. Hawkins' business." Jessica was smart with her choice of words. It instantly boosted Susan's confidence.
Susan was the matriarch of the Hawkins family, one of the most distinguished families in Pamore.
Although she had been embarrassed before due to Celia's actions, that was all in the past. How many people would still remember? "But we don't have an invitation. Will they let us in?" "Madam Hawkins, your identity speaks for itself. No one will stop you." Jessica's words made Susan very pleased, and she couldn't help but raise her chin.
"Well, since we're here, let's go in and take a look." Jessica hummed in acknowledgement.

She was well aware that, since the fall of the Quine family, the once-friendly aristocratic families had all distanced themselves.
Moreover, her identity as Danielle must not be made public.
Now, she was just the founder of a new business, lacking a foundation and connections in Pamore. To rise again, having money alone wouldn't be enough.
