Chapter 129 Attend The Party

Julie waved her hand dismissively and said, "Don't worry. Your father knew John can't get close to any

fountains or pools. He brought it up a while ago, and I had the fountains and the pools covered before I

even came to you."

"That's good. Thank you, Mom." Vivian breathed a sigh of relief. She couldn't let John see the fountains

or the swimming pools, or all hell would break loose.

"I've taken care of everything. You have to do your absolute best tonight. There's an enormous amount

on the line." Julie was very anxious about Vivian and John's relationship. She was worried that Vivian

would do something wrong at the party. If that happened, Julia's position as the Ye family's hostess

would be unstable.

Her words sounded distant. Vivian knew that the only reason her mother liked her at all was because of

her achievements in life. Without any of that, she wasn't sure if she would even be accepted by her

family. Vivian was left disappointed.

Julie quickly realized the sadness filling her daughter's eyes and smiled, "It doesn't matter if it doesn't

work out though."

"Mom?" Vivian was surprised.

"Don't worry. I'm here for you." Even if her daughter didn't live up to her expectations, she couldn't be

upset. Julie was pregnant after all. The only problem was that she couldn't let anyone know.

A while ago she said she was going to the hospital because she was feeling sick, but in fact, she went

to find out the gender of her child. Unfortunately for her, it was still too early to find out the gender. She

could only find out when the fetus was around four or five months old.

She hoped it was a boy just in case Noah took over the family properties. If it was a girl though, she

wasn't sure if she was going to keep it. When she had Vivian, it really sucked out so much energy from Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

her that she didn't want to go through that again. Another factor was that she was really satisfied with

her daughter now.

"Thank you, Mom." Vivian wasn't sure if her mother was just lying for her sake but she did find comfort

in her mother's words, truthful or not.

There was one thing tapping away at her mind though. How could she fail?

Jessica had told her that John would attend the banquet with Nina. So she had the perfect plan lying in

wait.

The party would be flooded with celebrities and media and by then, Nina would be notorious. John

would then know for sure what kind of woman she was and he would have to leave her.

"It's almost time. Bring my dress and shoes." Vivian ordered the servants with a smile. She behaved

like a real lady from a distinguished family.

At half past six in the evening, the darkness of the night sky began spreading in the sky.

The string quartet played melodic tunes, echoing throughout the halls. Champagne and flowers could

be seen everywhere. The servants walked around steadily with a smile. Everything was in order.

It was time for the party.

People of the rich and powerful families and celebrities from various industries were all dressed up and

in attendance. They all looked so poised and eye-catching facing the flickering media.

The Ye family had its own rules. There were different classes for different guests. Depending on their

invitations, they would be escorted to different areas.

The Song family entered with their golden invitations. The three members of the Shi family, who were

naturally respected, strode inside as well.

There were many guests from the younger generations of the powerful families. Most of them were

around Vivian's age. Harrison, who was from the He family, walked in with a gift in his hand. So did

Isabella, carrying an ink wash painting.

She heard that Vivian liked to collect paintings from famous artists.

There were also a few elders in attendance. Considering that not everyone wanted to be confronted by

media, the Ye family had prepared a separate entrance, away from attention.

There was a red carpet on which the media gathered in the east. Another entrance was filled with

countless servants in the west. The guests on different sides were led in by designated ushers.

It was common knowledge that John hated media attention so he entered from the west. His black

Rolls-Royce stopped at the side of the road with the personalized license plate giving away his

distinguished identity.

The servants of Ye family bowed respectfully, and the butler approached to welcome them in person.

"Welcome, Mr. Shi."

The servants echoed, "Welcome, Mr. Shi."

When Nina saw the scene unfolding, she felt as if they were going to welcome him back home.

John was dressed in a sharp suit, looking dashing and noble.

"Here we are." Nina gently reminded. Nine, who was laying at her feet, barked. John opened his eyes

and calmly glanced over at Nina and Nine.

He gazed at Nina in all her beauty. Looking at her face without makeup and brown overcoat covering

her strapless dress, he smiled with the utmost pleasure.

His little girl was so obedient. She deserved a reward for being so good.

John leaned over

and gently kissed the corner of Nina's mouth.

He remembered when she took the initiative to kiss him, she kissed the corner of his mouth too.

Nina blinked her eyes and was slightly stunned. Before she could blush, John had stepped out the car

and said, "Get out."

His soothing tone put Nina in a trance. If not for the trace of warmth left on her mouth, she would have

thought she imagined this whole thing.

Nine jumped out of the car first, waiting for Nina eagerly.

"I'm coming." Nina came to her senses and hunched over to get out of the car. The pink dress draped

down on the ground from under her overcoat. A pair of white and tender legs appeared. She wore a

pair of while high-heeled sandals, exposing her pink nail-polished toes.

Carl, the Ye family's butler, looked up with a strange expression. He knew that this had to be the girl

who Vivian mentioned, Nina. How was she so beautiful without makeup? No wonder Vivian was so

threatened by her.

"Who is this lady?" Carl asked, trying to confirm his suspicions. He was trying to find out her

relationship with John so he could report back to Vivian.

Vivian had to know her enemy well.

Ignoring him, John raised his arm, motioning for Nina to hold it.

Nina came here as John's date. She had to walk arm in arm with him. Nina held John's arm and smiled

at the Carl, not answering his question.

John didn't respond to him, so there was no reason for her to answer.

Carl was a little embarrassed by their reaction. Everyone knew that whether or not John replied

depended on his mood. But for Nina to just ignore him as well was a bit of a slap in the face.

"Miss, you can't bring a dog in today," Carl said unhappily.

Nina was really talented at reading people with a momentary glance so she instantly saw the disgust in

Carl's eyes. She pretended to be aggrieved.

"Can't I bring my dog in?"

Before Carl could say anything, Nina turned her head and stared at John. "Didn't you say that I could

bring Nine here? You asked me to bring it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought Nine here. What should I

do? You said that if Nine wasn't by my side, you'd feel uneasy. How about we leave?"

Raising her eyebrows, Nina turned around and was about to leave.

"Okay!" John agreed much to Nina's surprise. It was rare for him to play along.

They turned around and were about to leave. Carl broke out in a cold sweat. John was the most

important guest of the banquet today. How could he leave so easily? "Mr. Shi, Mr. Shi, please wait."

Nina slightly tilted her head and asked coldly, "Can we enter now?"

"Okay, Mr. Shi, please follow me." Carl quickly escorted them in with Nine trotting proudly behind them.

Walking in, Nina felt her phone vibrate in her bag. She checked and saw a message.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Elk. Your ink painting was sold in Lexingport City two days ago. The final price

was eight million dollars. Please check if you've received the payment."
