Christian was dragged away by a few old buddies to chat. Lea moved around on her own and sawShannon and the others among the guests..

For the formal and grand occasion, Shannon wore a white dress. Her facial features were exquisite.and beautiful, and she looked pure and clean.

Ever since Shannon got away from Donna, she grew more confident and competent. There was asense of determination and tenacity in her. Even in a gathering of socialites, the simply–dressed.Shannon was not overshadowed.

Yannis wore a suit. His posture was even more upright, and his facial features were also veryhandsome. He was not used to such an occasion, so he quietly followed Shannon.

Chris was also here. She wore a sleeveless one–piece business suit with a round collar and wide-legged pants. The material of her outfit was excellent. Her skin glowed, and her long hair was tiedbehind her head. She looked intellectual, elegant, and capable..

Chris was the one who brought Shannon and Yannis to the party. She was also the one whobrought them to buy their outfits and even styled them.

Unlike Yannis and Shannon who were worried about their friend, Lea, Chris was not worried andwas purely here to watch the drama.

Lorrand was also here. He stood not far from them and had come with the same goal.

Charles brought the big shots from the laboratory to the party too. Though they highly valued theirscientific research, they specially took time to celebrate Lea’s birthday and her admission to ConradUniversity.

At this moment, Charles was chatting with his friends.

Seeing that they were all here, Lea was in a good mood and her smile became more sincere. Shethought, ‘If Alfred were here too, it would be perfect.

On the second floor, in a VIP room, a man stood next to the glass window and looked down at thescene. His gaze followed Lea, taking in every detail of her.

“Mr. Andrews, aren’t you going down to see Miss Lea?” Craig asked in confusion.

To rush over to celebrate Lea’s birthday, Alfred had been very busy in Iverton for the last few days.that he did not sleep. He had pushed off many important things and especially rushed over on theprivate plane from Iverton.

Craig couldn’t figure out why Alfred didn’t go down to see Lea.

“With my status, if I go down, the situation will go out of control. I want Lea to celebrate her birthdayhow she intended.” Alfred turned to look at Craig. “What? You’ve been with me for so long. Can’tyou tell?”

Craig took a while to reply. “I… just think Miss Berry will be very happy to see you.”

Alfred nodded. His attitude toward Craig immediately changed.

Craig silently noted it down. However, he did not believe Afred’s words. He felt that something wasabout to happen. He could barely wait.

In the hall, everything was ready. It was almost time. Christian led Lea onto the stage to give aspeech before the party began. “Welcome, everyone, to my granddaughter’s birthday party. She’s18 years old today.”

Christian looked at Lea beside him, appearing doting and proud.

There was a round of applause.

“Congrats, Miss Berry. Congrats, Mr. Berry,” many people said to them.

“Today is also her graduation party. My little granddaughter has been accepted into ConradUniversity, Christian went on.

“Wait!” Just as the guests were about to clap again, Helen stepped forward and interrupted

everyone.

Everyone was stunned for a moment before their eyes lit up.

Although Helen was far inferior to Lea in terms of looks and temperament, she still had herbackground. Compared to her peers, Helen was also very outstanding.

Looking at Helen and Lea, some people were envious and sang their praises.

“I really envy Mr. Berry for having two outstanding and beautiful granddaughters,” a man said.

“If I had known, I would have let my son have a daughter,” an older woman whispered.

“That’s right. That grandson of mine is a good–for–nothing. He’s infuriating, another woman. added.

The voices went on.

Helen walked forward in her high heels. The stage was not high and she was almost at the same

level as Lea and Chiristian. “After Conrad University’s interview, Lea didn’t take out her acceptanceletter. Lea, do you have the letter or not?”

As soon as Helen said that, the atmosphere changed. The guests were puzzled.

Shannon was shocked. She thought, ‘Lea didn’t get the acceptance letter? She wasn’t accepted byConrad University?”

Shannon had never seen the acceptance letter. She immediately became nervous.

Yannis was just as nervous and worried as Shannon,

Chris raised an eyebrow. Lorrand and Charles were also stunned.

In the VIP lounge upstairs, Craig immediately thought to himself, ‘Fuck!”

Alfred frowned. Lea had also told Blake that she did not have an acceptance letter. Alfred stillremembered his grandfather’s expression. It turned out that Lea really did not have the acceptanceletter.

Alfred looked at Lea, who was standing beside Christian. She looked calm. Thus, he was notworried.

The entire venue fell silent for a while. The guests exchanged glances and started discussing.

A guest asked in a low voice, “What’s going on?”

Someone explained, “The acceptance letter for Conrad University is issued on the spot after theinterview.”

“Oh! So, she didn’t get accepted?” the

guest confirmed.

“That’s right,” another person chimed in.

“Then why did she still say that she got in? She even wanted to hold a school acceptance party?”the guest continued asking. “This is so embarrassing.”

“I’m embarrassed for her,” someone added.

“Look, Mr. Berry’s face is red,” a voice pointed out. “But why did Miss Helen call her out publicly?”

“Those two sisters don’t get along at all, one of the guests explained.

“Exactly. Miss Lea is illegitimate,” a man said.

“Mrs. Berry has been abusing Miss Lea all along,” another voice stated.

Matilda also heard those whispers. She no longer cared about family scandals, her past scandals,and her reputation. It didn’t matter as long as she could watch Lea be embarrassed publicly.Matilda’s lips curved into a sneer.

Helen could not help but laugh. The expression on her face became even more smug.

Christian heard everyone’s whispers and understood what was going on. He glared at Helen andsaid in a deep voice, “Leave!”

Helen was instantly enraged. She had just celebrated her nineteenth birthday not long ago. Hermother had organized a grand celebration for her, but it was not as grand as today. Christian hadonly shown up that day.

As Helen expected, Christian was biased toward Lea. Even now, he still wanted to protect the bitchand chase her away.

Helen thought, “That’s right, Grandpa did me wrong first. She said, “Grandpa, we can’t lie in front ofour friends and influential guests.”

Christian was speechless. He turned to Lea. “Where’s your acceptance letter?”

Lea looked up at Helen indifferently.

Helen grinned. “Lea, tell us then? You’re not scared silly, are you?”

The students from Vaporleon High School immediately celebrated. They finally understood why theywere invited to the party. They already had a lot of conflicts with Lea at school. Lea had beenextremely arrogant in the last month of the SAT exam.

After the SAT exam, they heard that Lea had really gotten into Conrad University. They werescolded by their parents at home.

Their parents had said, “I heard that the last place in your class got into Conrad University. How canyou be worse than her? How can I have such a disappointing child like you?”

It only increased their hatred toward Lea.

The students would not let such a good opportunity go. They scrambled to speak.

“Lea, go on. Show us your acceptance letter,” one of them said.

“Don’t tell me you really didn’t have it,” another asked.

A few of them burst into laughter. “You’re so useless. You’re an idiot. What a joke!”

The youngsters were unbridled, and the atmosphere grew extremely awkward.

Christian gritted his teeth. “You really don’t have it?

“Yeah,” Lea replied nonchalantly and self–righteously.

Christian’s body swayed. He almost fainted on the spot.

The entire hall was in an uproar. The group of youngsters laughed even more wantonly. Theparents and even the older guests could not hold it in anymore. Those who were well–manneredlowered their heads in embarrassment.

However, most of them were mocking Lea. On the surface, they were partners, allies, and friends,but in essence, they were competing for benefits.

Berry Group was in Vaporleon City. After suppressing the other families for so long, everyonehoped that they would be ruined as soon as possible. Now, they were all happy.

Upstairs, Craig was also anxious. “Miss Berry didn’t get Conrad University’s acceptance letter?” Hethought, ‘Mr. Andrews, didn’t you fail in your duty as her boyfriend?‘

Craig was extremely anxious, but he saw Alfred looking downstairs calmly. “Mr. Andrews, what areyou looking at?”

Craig followed Alfred’s gaze and immediately exclaimed, “What the hell.”
