“This was a last–minute decision, right? I didn’t plan to make it such a big deal…”
“Even if it was a spur of the moment thing, you should’ve still informed your family, right? What the hell
is the Alonso family up to? Or did you purposely not tell Phoebe because you don’t consider her part of
the family? Speaking of which, where are all the other Alonso family members?”
When one friend was down, the other one had to step up! Phoebe was always gentle and humble,
never fighting for anything, but Angie would always stand up for her, protecting her from being bullied.
And Angie’s words had managed to make the usually calm Grace nervous.
“How could the other members of the Alonso family not attend the engagement party? They should be
resting backstage, right?”
“Even if they’re resting backstage, isn’t Ms. Phoebe supposed to be here anyway? Why did she just get
so worked up?”
Grace looked uncomfortable, unable to find an answer to this question. The other members of the
Alonso family indeed hadn’t come. But if they hadn’t come, how would people view the engagement
party? But if they had, she wouldn’t be so surprised by Phoebe’s sudden appearance. Her earlier
nervousness was due to worrying that Phoebe might blurt out something she shouldn’t, which made
her cautious. But now…
Without everthinking it, Phoebe turned to Wendy and whispered, “Wendy, isn’t what you’re doing a bit
over the line? You knew, today…”
“Phoebe Wendy, seeing that things were going south, immediately interrupted her. Then she put on a
face of helplessness. “I’ve already been through so much, do you want to make it worse for me? It’s
fine if I feel embarrassed, but what about the Alonso family? How would we explain this to our father?”
Phoebe’s expression subtly changed. Since she was little, she’d always craved her father’s attention
and love, but his mind was always on her sister. She consoled herself, understanding that as the lady
of the Alonso family, the future leader, it was natural for her father to pay more attention to her sister.
Even though she was sensible and considerate, she still longed for the love of a father who had
disappointed her time and time again. And she didn’t want to bring shame upon the Alonso family
But…
“Is it really alright to suddenly announce an engagement? Moreover, this is someone else’s venue,
even the guests are someone else’s. Don’t you think this is too much?” Hearing this, Wendy felt
extremely uncomfortable. After all, no one would want to rely on someone else’s popularity to elevate
their own wedding. But then she thought about it and felt extremely smug.
Weren’t these all the things Chloe wanted but couldn’t have? Chloe’s fiancé now belonged to her. Her
engagement venue now belonged to Wendy. The guests Chloe invited to bless her, now were blessing
her.
Thinking about all this, she felt that everything she had been through, everything she had endured, and
all the difficulties she was about to face, were all worth it, and she wouldn’t regret a thing.
“Phoebe, Ms. Chloe‘ cancellation of the engagement was never made public, and we thought everyone
knew. We originally just planned to have a small gathering at home, but Grandpa Presley thought it
was unfair to me. When he found out that this wedding feast was canceled and the guests hadn’t left
yet, he decided to temporarily use this banquet hall…”
What she meant was that she thought these people already knew and stayed because they wanted to
attend her and Damon’s engagement party.
She also explained that Grandpa Presley was thinking about her and decided to hold a grand banquet.
Even though it might’ve been a bit inappropriate to exploit Chloe’s popularity, she believed this was a
great favor Grandpa Presley was doing for the people present, those who wanted to make connections
with the Alonso family and the Harper family
A few people nearby also felt that attending such an engagement party was a great thing. Someone
started a debate, unable to hold back. “It’s an honor for us to attend the engagement party of the lady
of the Alonso family and the CEO. There’s nothing to argue about.”
“Right, we came here today to attend an engagement party. We didn’t attend Ms. Chloe‘, so attending
this one is even more meaningful for us.”
Grace immediately smiled and said, “Now that everyone knows, on behalf of the Alonso family, I’d like
to sincerely invite you all to attend the engagement party of the lady of the Alonso family and the
grandson of the Harper family.”
“Great, great! It’s an honor!” Most people were very happy and nodded in agreement.
Some people even showed great enthusiasm, saying, “But what about Ms. Chloe? She made an
announcement at the beginning, but why did she cancel it without any notice? How could such a big
misunderstanding occur?”
Grace laughed. “I’m not sure about that…”
“Who said today’s engagement party was cancelled?!”
As Grace spoke, her face was full of smiles. However, as soon as she finished speaking, a harsh voice
rang out. The clear voice echoed in the venue.
Everyone turned their heads and saw Elizabeth standing in front of the door leading to the backstage
rest area. Her expression was so cold it sent chills down people’s
epines
A few sharp–eyed people recognized her. “Isn’t that Elizabeth?”
“Elizabeth? The CEO mother?”
“Who else could be
“What did she mean by what she just said?”
“What engagement party hasn’t been cancelled? Isn’t this the CEO’s engagement party? I didn’t hear
anything about it being cancelled?”
“Hmm?”
“What’s going on?”
Grace and Wendy’s faces suddenly turned tense Hadn’t Grandpa said he wouldn’t let her show up?
Why did she suddenly appear?
Elizabeth’s foot was still aching! The wound on her arm hurt so much she wanted to cry. When had she
ever suffered such pain since being with Royce, apart from
childbirth?
Only she knew how much anger she had pent up in her heart. To pull off this surprise engagement
party. Presley actually had her locked in a lounge and even had guards posted on her. Would she have
been here if she hadn’t kicked the door open and threatened the bodyguards with a knife after cutting
her own arm?
Royce hadn’t shown up yet, so she was certain that Presley must have had him holed up somewhere
too!
Presley’s face darkened even more when she saw her. “How did you get out?”
Elizabeth, gritting her teeth against the pain, shot Presley a cold look. “You’re asking me how I got out
to attend my own son’s engagement party?”
