Chapter 31


    Benjamin was about to say something when dys beat him to it. “Oh, now you want to talk? What


    were you doing earlier on, cowering in the corner? It’s so embarrassing being your wife. I want a


    divorce!”


    There was a crowd at The Gourmand’s entrance.


    However, none of them were interested in their family argument. Their minds were still on the Blithe


    King.


    “The Blithe King’s session ceremony is in five days.”


    “Oh, yes. I heard that it’ll be held at Cansington’s military region. Apparently, the ceremony will be open


    to the public, but only the most powerful and influential people will receive an invitation.”


    “That’s what I heard too! Only the true upper-ss families who are rich and powerful enough will be


    able to attend.”


    “Ah, I bet the only people who will get invited are the celebrities.”


    Everyone was busy talking about the Blithe King.


    Not James though. He sat on a chair outside The Gourmand, smoking a cigarette.


    To save her family, dys had embarrassed herself thoroughly. She even knelt to Belinda! After


    “dys, is that you? You’re here too!”


    Benjamin and his family were waiting in line to enter The Gourmand when a voice rang out.


    dys looked up. A pretty, well-kept woman approached, holding the arm of a man in a suit and tie. A


    young couple followed them.


    “Felicia?”


    dys stood up. She was surprised as she surveyed the woman before her, who still looked like she


    was in her twenties. She asked, “Are you Felicia Lockwood? The same Felicia who sat behind me in


    ss?”


    “That’s right! dys, it really is you! I haven’t seen you in years! My, your social standing seems to be


    deteriorating, isn’t it? Once upon a time, you were the school belle. I thought you’d marry rich! Who


    knew you’d end up this way, even having to wait at The Gourmand?”


    Felicia nced at dys, her hand still on the man’s arm. “This is my husband, the chairman of Lucky


    Logistics. He has a worth of tens of millions. What about you? Where’s your husband? What does


    he do?”


    dys knew that Felicia was showing off.


    She jerked Benjamin toward her, holding her head high. “This is my husband, Benjamin Cahan, a


    ten-percent shareholder of Eternality. The Cahans’ have a worth of billions, while my husband is


    worth millions.”


    Since Benjamin had be a shareholder of Eternality, dys was finally able to enjoy some social


    standing. ncing at Felicia out of the corner of her eyes, she felt more and more gleeful.


    Felicia looked surprised. “Wow, really? Eternality’s shareholder, eh? Then why are you still waiting in


    line? Aren’t you a member? Oh, I know. You were just boasting, weren’t you?”


    The man next to her said, “Fel, I have a lot of work to do today. Hurry up, let’s go. I have to be in the


    office againter on.”

    Felicia saw dys’ expression shift. Immediately, she knew that dys was just boasting.


    Years ago, dys was the school belle.


    Though Felicia was pretty as well, she was only a wallflower in dys’ presence.


    Now that she had done better in life than dys, she was not going to pass up the opportunity to gloat.


    She grabbed a cute-looking girl from behind her. “This is my daughter. You know who the Wilsons are,


    right? She married a Wilson!”


    The young man beside the girl tossed his head, putting his arm around the girl smugly. “The Wilsons


    are doing okay, I guess. We’re only worth tens of billions and we rank the third among The Great Four


    in Cansington.”


    dys was speechless.


    She red at Thea viciously.


    Thanks to Thea, dys could not even look her ssmate in the eye.


    Thea hung her head, keeping her gaze firmly on the floor.


    “dys, this must be your daughter! It’s Thea, right? We saw you on the news. Oh, I heard that your


    daughter married some nobody. All he does is cook and pick Thea up from work with an electric


    motorcycle. Oh, she’s disfigured again now?”


    Sensing another opportunity to attack dys, Felicia took it. She kept putting Thea and James down


    whilstplimenting her own daughter and son-inw.


    David and Alyssa kept quiet in the face of these insults. Their family was nothingpared to the


    others.


    dys was so embarrassed that she wanted nothing more than to hide.


    Even after obtaining the shares, it still was not enough.


    She red at James, who was still smoking in his seat without a care in the world. She hated him with


    a vengeance. It was him who affected her social standing.


    After watching this y out, James felt like he had no choice.


    As Thea’s husband, he did not want to be an embarrassment to her or her parents.


    He called Henry immediately. “Make a reservation for the Diamond Room at The Gourmand. Make


    sure it’s under Thea’s name.”


    After that, he stood up and approached dys. “Mom, didn’t we make a reservation for the Diamond


    Room? Let’s go in.”


    Felicia burst outughing. “Haha, the Diamond Room? What a joke!”


    Her husband looked unimpressed as well. “Boy, do you even know what the Diamond Room is? You’re


    taking this ruse too far.”


    Chad Wilson, Felicia’s son-inw, sneered at James. “Even as a member of the Wilson family, I’m only


    a silver member. That means I’m just entitled to the Silver Room. And you’re saying you have a


    reservation for the Diamond Room? In Cansington, there are only a handful of people who have ess


    to the Diamond Room.”
