Three days later, the annual B City Feast kicked off.Ashley and her mom had got their wish to the main
venue, Wolf Group Hotel.
It was the first time for both of them to attend such a grand meeting.
They had been practicing social etiquette at home these days.
In order not to be disgraced, Ronald bought jewelry and dresses for them.
It was said that clothes make the man.
The high- end dress made Ashley look more beautiful and sexy.
Middle-aged Julie also changed a lot.
Putting on a high-end dress and a piece of jewelry, she looked very graceful and elegant.
Mason went to the feast with Ashley, and Ronald with Julie.
When Mason came to pick up Ashley, he thought Ronald would bring Valeria.
But when he saw that it was Ashley's mother, he was stunned for a while.
He couldn't help ask, "Why didn't I see Valeria?"
Ronald did not disclose the news of Valeria's disappearance, and Ashley did not tell Mason either.
Now Mason asked like this, it was obvious that he still cared about Valeria.
Ashley felt quite resentful but smiled and said, "Valeria is in a rage with my father.She hasn't been
home for several days."
"She hasn't been home for days? Where does she live? I remember that my uncle had frozen her
card."
Where else can she live? She must be with the man who drove Maybach that day.She can't be bored
with such a rich man in a short time.Mason's face darkened, and his worry for Valeria immediately
turned into hatred.
Soon Mason and Ronald parked at the entrance of the Wolf Group Hotel, and they four got out of the
car and entered the venue separately.
There were already quite a few people in the hall, all of whom were prestigious people from the B City
with their ladies.
When they suddenly saw Ronald and Mason bring in two strangers, they began whispering to each
other.
"Didn't Mr.Brown's wife pass away? Who is the middle-aged Madam he brought in?"
"I guess it's his new sweetheart.’’
"New sweetheart? Such an aged one? It's a easy thing for Mr.Brown to find a young and beautiful
one.Why did him choose such an old woman? Is there any reason behind?"
"Who knows? Have you seen Mason's lady friend? We haven't seen her before.Isn't Mason and
Mr.Brwon's daughter a couple? Then who's this woman?"
"Yeah.Where is Mr.Brown's daughter? Did she break up with Mason?"
"May be.Otherwise, Mason wouldn't have brought a woman whose appearance and temperament are
not as good as Miss Brown to the party."
The buzz of those ladies passed into the ears of Ashley and her mom intermittently.
The two were extremely angry They thought that they could cut a dash as they dressing up so
beautifully, but they never expected to be talked about like this.
Ronald also heard the discussions and felt uncomfortable .
However, he couldn't shut up others’ mouths.
It was at this awkward moment that the President of the Howard family, Charles Howard], and his wife,
Elizabeth Eich, showed up.
Upon seeing them, Ronald and Mason, along with Ashley and Julie, came forward to greet them.
Mason greeted Charles and Elizabeth and called them "uncle" and "aunt" with a smile.
Elizabeth glanced at Ashley and her mom.
She knew the relationship between her nephew and Ashley, and also between Julie and Ronald.
Seeing Ronald bring Ashley and her mom here, it was obvious that he was ready to admit their
identities.
She had a lot of favor of her nephew Mason, so Eliazabeth wouldn't embarrass him.
She smiled and said, "Ms.Evans and Miss Evans, come with me.I'll introduce some friends to you"
With Elizabeth's introduction, those ladies stopped talking about Ashley and Julie.
Both Ashley and Julie were "diplomats" and glib- tongued so they quickly merged into these people.
Valeria stepped in on high heels and saw this scene.
When she saw that Ashley and Julie were having good chats with the wealthy ladies inside, a sneer
appeared on her lips.
The higher the head, the greater the fall.Ashley would deeply understand it before long.
