Chapter 270
After she turned her around, the young man couldn’t help but break into a heartyugh. “Dr. Pendleton,
your medical skills are impable. I thought I’d be bedridden for at least a couple of weeks after that
beating I took. But after your treatment, I’m up and about today.”
“Even with the best medical skills, your body can’t handle continuous reckless behavior. Don’t be so
rash next time.” Calista warned him casually. “I can’t believe you meddled in Tam’s affairs. You even
live streamed it. Look at where that got you.”
“But I gained a lot of poprity because of it.” The young man stuck out his tongue at Calista in a
yful manner, showing her his phone. “Look, I’ve got a million followers now. That beating was worth
it.”
Calista simply shook her head as the young man left, chuckling.
"That guy..." Pa asked in surprise. "Isn''t he the one who live streamed Tam''s mistress scandal?"
"Yep." Calista answered nonchntly. "He''s a popr live streamer known as Stardust. He’s quite the
daredevil."
"These inte celebrities would do anything for fame. Last time, when Tam''s fifth wife was ganged up
on by the other four for feeling left out, Stardust sneaked in and live streamed the whole thing. He got

seriously injured and was sent here."
"He''s so bold enough to live stream anything?" Pa''s eyes sparkled with intrigue.
"Yes. Anything." Calista answered, "He once told me about a celebrity who drugged her rival to create
a scandal. He was going to live stream it but got beaten to the punch."
"I see." Pa munched on an apple, not asking any further.
Calista exchanged a knowing nce with M.
Two hourster.
Fiona was walking weakly in the hospital garden. The memories of being trapped for three days in the
Spring Pavilion by the woman in a golden mask were still fresh in her mind.
When the resort staff found her three dayster, she was severely dehydrated, starved, and had lost
control of her bodily functions. It was aplete mess. If it weren''t for her mask and her refusal to let
them take it off, she would have died of shame.
It was her subordinates who finally received the message and secretly brought her to the hospital. She
could never forget their faces as they tried so hard to hide their amusement.
It was clear that the Frostfire Intelligence Agency was behind the whole ordeal. She decided she would
never cross paths with them again.
At least she managed to get her hands on the boar poison.
Last time, Isolde took the hit for Percival. This time, he wouldn''t be so lucky.
But before that, she had to take care of one person, Vivienne.
She knew that it was Vivienne who had cured Isolde of the boar poison. So Percival''s fiancée had to
go.
Suddenly, she heard two people talking from behind a holly bush.
"Is it true that the Brooks family''s newly recognized daughter could cause such a scene at her reunion
banquet?"
"Yes. She''s a country bumpkin. She is very crude and has no respect for decorum."
Fiona recognized the two people talking. One was a young man she didn''t know, and the other was
Pa.
She listened quietly.
"You don''t need to do anything." Pa told Stardust. "I''ll have the pinhole cameras installed. All you
need to do is live stream the footage. Simple."
"Okay, sure." Stardust nodded. Although he had just been hospitalized for live streaming a scandal, he
knew they were nothingpared to the prestigious Brooks family.
After hearing Pa and Stardust''s conversation, Fiona turned off her phone''s recording function and
quietly slunk away. It seemed like the Brooks family had its own problems, and Vivienne''s life wasn''t as
smooth as she thought.
...
Two dayster.
Vivienne''s reunion banquet was held at the luxurious Yette Pce Hotel''s top-floor banquet hall in
Rivenwood.
The Brooks family took this banquet very seriously, especially after the scandal involving the fake
Arabe.
The hospitality the Brooks family showed today waspletely different from what they showcased at
Arabe''s reunion banquet in Havenwood.
At that time, the Brooks family, with their high status, let Arabe greet the guests alone. But this time,
it was theplete opposite.
Judith and Baron yed host in the grand ballroom, while Vivienne secluded herself in the lounge,
waiting to make her grand debut when she was formally introduced to the guests.
By the time the Ellington family arrived, the ballroom was bustling with guests. Richard took a nce
around the room as a satisfied grunt escaped his lips. "At least they haven''t disgraced Vivienne this
time."
He then turned to Percival, who was trailing behind him. "Your engagement party must be grander than
this, understood? We can''t be outdone!"
"Richard, have you lost your marbles?" Baron retorted angrily as his mustache quivered in indignation.
"Must you alwayspete with me? Have I stolen your wife or desecrated your ancestors'' graves?"
"Steal my wife? You couldn''t even manage that when we were young, let alone now when you''re
knocking on heaven''s door! Even if you did try, you''d never seed!" Richard haughtily huffed. "As for
desecrating my ancestors'' graves, try me."
"You!" Baron was so choked with rage that he was rendered speechless.
"Scott, where''s Vivienne?" Percival asked, ignoring the heated exchange between the two old men.
"She''s still getting ready in the lounge." Scott responded.
"I''ll go see her then." Percival had been finding it hard to see Vivieely. Each time he tried to visit,
Baron would find a way to make things difficult for him.
Sure enough, just as he was about to step forward, Baron, who had been seething with fury at
Richard''s taunts, swiftly blocked his path. "It''s not right for a young man and woman to be alone
together!"
