Jessy complained in a low voice, “Grandpa, see? She doesn’t even bother with you. Look at her arrogant attitude.
So what if she’s the Xander family’s daughter? She still grew up in the countryside and still look as such. Look at
what she’s wearing. A small dress with flats. This is a real country bumpkin…” “Shut up already! Couldn’t you close
your mouth for once?” Christopher scolded. “Grandpa…” Jessy was furious. Her tone was as aggrieved as it could
be. Christopher added, “Kristina, keep your daughter in check.” Kristina was Jessy’s mother. “Jess, eat. Don’t talk
anymore.” Kristina got caught in the crossfire, feeling rather irked as well, so she scolded Jessy. Jessy got even
angrier. She directly slammed her fork down. “I’m not eating.” “Do that again, I dare you!” Christopher looked at
Jessy with a dark expression. Jessy stood up angrily. “Sit down!” Christopher scolded again. Kristina immediately
said to her, “Jess. Sit down. and eat.” “I’m not eating anymore, alright?” Jessy was so angry that she cried.
Cassandra said pertinently, “You did the right thing. You should have been more strict with her well long ago. She’s
the daughter of a wealthy family, yet she hardly looks like one. How is she any different from those gossipy women
everywhere else?” Jessy was so angry that she felt like she was about to explode on the spot. Jane was also
depressed today. At this moment, she stood up and said, “I’m done eating too. Take your time. Jess, I’ll take you
back to your room.” Jessy immediately took advantage of the situation and left the banquet hall with Jane. “Pfftt…
This is so wrong.” After leaving the banquet hall, Jessy let out a long breath. Jane rolled her eyes, then said
sarcastically, “Right? Look at Annalise’s arrogant behavior. I bet you didn’t see her looking at you with disdain when
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe left…” “I saw it.” Jessy thought of Annalise’s disdainful gaze and felt even more stifled. Jane held Jessy’s hand.
The two of them walked toward the guest rooms and complained along the way. “She can dress like a princess but
she sure as hell doesn’t look like one. She thinks that she’s that much of a big deal, huh?” “That’s right. Look at that
flats she’s wearing. It’s really ugly.” “So what if she’s the daughter of the Xander family?” “But she’s the real
daughter of the Xander family. How infuriating!” The more Jane thought about it, the more jealous she became.
She had always liked Julian. Originally, she thought that even if she was only the Hiller family’s adopted daughter,
her status would be much, higher than Annalise, just a woman from the countryside. After that, when she found out
that Annalise was Joseph’s disciple, making her jealous, yet she still felt that her status as a Hiller family’s daughter
was better. However, Annalise eventually turned out to be Lee’s biological daughter. Not only that, but Yechiel was
also dead. Now, Lee was the one in charge of the Xander family. In other words, Annalise’s status was higher than
all of the Xander family’s daughters. “Ah, I’m so angry!” Jane was so angry that she wanted to reach out and pull
her hair. She thought about how she had done her hair and endured it. In the banquet hall, Annalise glanced at the
door and looked away. She figured that status really came in handy at times. When those dazzling identities were
put to the table, the undesirables would automatically retreat. Layla watched as Annalise held Julian’s arm and went
to another table. She ate calmly. She was not as stupid as Jared, going to the point that she had to do it herself.
Julian and Annalise shuttled through the banquet hall. Layla ate while paying attention to the movements from the
corner of her eye. “Closer, closer. They are almost at the table in the northwest corner.” She thought. She did not
spend money to hire anyone. Instead, she got two girls who were very close with her. These two girls had known
her for more than 10 years. Of course, she knew that nothing motivated people. more than wealth. Her relationship
with the girls. was little more than a mutually beneficial deal. So, she was using benefits to rope them over. When
Tony went to be in charge of Parks Group’s overseas project, she expanded her small circle and introduced
businesses to a few wealthy ladies. These two girls had always enjoyed her Parks Group’s overseas company
dividends. All these years, they had earned a lot by following her. Therefore, all these years, whenever she returned
to the country, the girls would rush over immediately to treat her to a meal, buy her stuff, and give her jewelry.
They were being quite generous. This time, she invited the two girls to her room for a face-to-face meeting. Of
course, she would not leave any evidence. behind. When the two girls heard that as long as they dealt with the child
in Annalise’s stomach, the possibility of her son, Alexander, rising to the top would greatly increase, they
immediately expressed that they would definitely try their best to help. Of course, they would work hard to help.
With such a good relationship, they had earned a lot for their own companies through said overseas projects alone.
They deemed that if Layla’s son took over, their earnings would rise as well. When they arrived at the table in the
northwest corner, Julian and his wife toasted everyone. Julian held a glass of wine and said politely, “Thank you for
taking the time to attend our wedding. We would like to toast everyone at this table. Thank you!” Most of the people
at the table stood up with their glasses to show their courtesy. A lady in her forties happened to be beside Annalise.
She also picked up her glass. The people at the table were all smiling as they said their blessings. After drinking,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJulian and his wife thanked them again and prepared to go to another table. The 40-year-old lady saw her chance.
Her pupils. constricted, and she immediately extended her leg to trip Annalise. Julian immediately held Annalise’s
waist and pulled her into his arms. Annalise had long felt that there was something wrong with this woman. When
the woman. extended her leg, she stood still. She looked down at the woman’s outstretched leg and looked at her
mockingly. “Madam, what are you trying to do by stretching your leg out so long?” Everyone turned to look at the
lady’s legs. Everyone was standing and happened to see it at a glance. The rich lady was extremely embarrassed.
She quickly retracted her leg and smiled awkwardly. “My leg was just a little numb just now, so I wanted to stretch.”
“Oh? Your leg was numb?” Annalise’s voice rose. “I thought you wanted to trip me?” “I wouldn’t, how could I… I just
sat for too long and suddenly stood up, so my legs were a little numb, then I stretched my leg…” The lady
explained. Annalise smiled. “Oh, deliberately stretching your leg toward me would help?” Everyone looked at the
spot where Annalise was standing. She was clearly about to leave, but this rich lady stretched out her leg. It
became obvious that she was indeed trying to trip Annalise. Hence, the rich lady’s husband raised his hand and
slapped the rich lady. Someone chimed in, “Well done!” “This is too much. What has gotten into her? I wonder what
is she trying to pull?” “This kind of person doesn’t deserve to attend the wedding.” The others chastised. “I really
didn’t mean it.” The lady covered her face and looked at her husband in an aggrieved manner. The main project of
her husband’s company was gotten by her from Layla. All these years, the man had been very good to her. Now, he
actually hit her for such a small matter. It was infuriating. After hitting the woman, the rich lady’s husband
immediately apologized to Julian. “Mr. Parks, I’m sorry. My wife didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely
teach this stupid thing a lesson when I get back!”
