Chapter 345


    Cordelia looked over, following the voice, and saw Yelena sashaying among the crowd in a long


    golden tube dress. Nelly stood nearby with a mocking gaze as she watched the show.


    “So what if she’s Mrs. Hamerton? She’s just an upstart! Who in Centrolis doesn’t know that the


    Clouds sell pig slop? Hahaha…”


    Kate’s expression changed for the worse when she heard themotion there. Plenty of guests


    heard thement as well and woreplicated looks.


    Compared to the other major families, it was true that the Clouds did not have much topare to.


    However, they were wealthy. Aside from agricultural business, they were generous in buyingnds


    and construction.


    Actually, no one in high society dared look down on the Clouds, and no one would even mention the


    word “upstart”…


    Cordelia looked over. Yelena looked like a fool with how triumphant she was. She was sure that


    Yelena was being treated as a pawn again.


    Cordelia felt embarrassed for her. Although she was not rted to Yelena by blood, she still has


    over 20 years of history with the Jenners.


    “Aunt Cloud…” She felt apologetic. “Don’t listen to her. She’s—”


    “She’s that elder sister of yours?” Kate was indifferent.


    Before Cordelia could answer, Yelena came over and waved exaggeratedly at her.


    “Oh, sis! You’re here too?”


    Cordelia was helpless and looked elsewhere.


    The onlookersmented softly, “Hah, these sisters are really something. I wonder what they did to


    hook themselves up with the two Hamerton heirs!”


    “Whether they’re able to marry in the Hamertons, though, is another story.”


    “Mrs. Hamerton’s attitude toward Ms. Jenner just now isn’t the same. It must be due to Mr. Zephyr…


    Now that she knows her rtionship with this Ms. Yelena Jenner, she might look down on her,


    huh?”


    Cordelia’s heart lurched. She was going to pull her hand away from Kate, but thetter tightened


    her hold.


    Kate looked at her with a smile. Her gaze was fond as usual.


    “There are many gossipers in events like this,” Kate said softly. “The more people talk, the more you


    can’t let go of me! Or some despicable ones will really think that they’ve gotten their way.”


    “Aunt Cloud…” A surge of warmth gushed into Cordelia.


    “It’s okay!” Kate patted the back of her hand. “I’m here.”


    Cordelia nodded with a smile and recovered her calmposure.


    Despite that, Kate…


    “Oh, Ms. Yelena!”


    Cordelia froze as she watched Kate put on a front. Her movement and expression were extremely


    dramatic, with her red lips blossoming into a grin while she threw herself to Yelena in a little over-


    friendlily manner.


    Cordelia found that it was kind of funny.

    Yelena was also shocked, unable to snap back to herself when Kate hugged her unexpectedly.


    “Wee, wee! Haha…” Kate’sugh was loud. “Who did youe with, Ms. Yelena?”


    “I—”


    “Oh, it wouldn’t be Yale, would it?” Kate dragged her words. “I saw him just now! That kid’s got a


    female celebrity in his arms, and I think the Hamertons will get another daughter-inw!”


    Yelena scowled instantly as she clutched the flute in her hand tighter.


    “Oh, Ms. Yelena, I’ve always thought that you match Yale very much!” Kate scoffed. “What is it


    called… a wolf and a jackal often go hunting together?”


    Yelena widened her eyes and red at her.


    “Anyway! Something along the line!”


    Kate ignored Yelena’s reaction.


    “Ms. Yelena, don’t mind me if I misuse my vocabry! I’m an ‘upstart’, after all! I was so busy


    making money that I didn’t study well!”


    Yelena kept rolling her eyes but could not retort.


    “Oh, you look great today.” Kate scanned her up and down. “What’s that word again… Wh*rish? Or


    is it sl*tty?”


    “You!”


    Yelena was furious and wanted to ssh the champagne on Kate, only for thetter to do it in


    advance as she sshed her iced wine on her face.
