Shannon brand everything

his high–end dress and personally
She now understood why Chris didn’t let her use the dress and car sent by the Moure family but instead chose this drove her in a luxury car.
Inparison, the dress her parents sent was <b>an </b>out<b>–</b>of–season design, with only a mid–level grade, and the car was an older, mid–tier model.
If she had shown up in front of these people like that, she would <b>have </b>appeared very ordinary
Now, she could suppress <b>these </b>people on the surface, N?velDrama.Org owns this text.
This was exactly the <b>effect </b>she wanted. It could give the Moore family enougli prestige, suppress those who might cause trouble, and help her establish herself in this family.
At the same time, she also realized that she was still far from being truly strong and could only rely on Chris
She knew she had to work harder to be strong soci
She gently raised the corners of her mouth, took two steps towards the Moore couple, directly reached out to take Jessie’s hand, and asked them “Dad, <b>Mom</b>. Are these uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters here to wee me home?
Since this was a family banquet held to wee her, it was reasonable and close–knit for her to address the guests this way,
Her voice was pleasant, and she controlled the volume and tone perfectly, exuding an aura winile remaining polite and appropriate.
Jessie was suddenly shocked. She tightened her grip on the hand holding hers, and when she looked up at her again, she finally dared to confirm that this was indeed Shannon.
“Yes… yes!” She was so
as so excited that her voice trembled violently. ncing <b>at </b>her husband, her eyes filled with uncontroble joy, she replied. These people are all here to wee you home.
“Min!” Quintin nodded excitedly. His face flushed with excitement, his head involuntarily lifted higher, and his entire demeanor was full of vigor
He <b>hadn’t </b>felt this proud in many years
“What? What The surrounding wealthy women were utterly incredulous as they
The younger members of the Moore family were also dumbfounded.
They murmured, “What did the Bentleydy <b>say</b>?”
Another questioned. “Did she say she’s that wild child, that worthless one!”
Others gasped, “How is that possible?”
The rest were in denial, “I must be hallucinating”
But Quintin had already begun introducing her to the elders.
<b>Yes</b><b>, </b>she was indeed Shannon Yancey.
No, from now on, she was Shannon Moore.
Everyone’s faces fell; they couldn’t ept such a <b>stark </b>contrast
At this moment, Lea and Willow finally stepped out of the car
Lea
was wearing <b>a </b>simple ck dress
Willow was dressed in a beige–white <b>cocktail </b>dress
lectively gasped
Today was Shannon’s day, so both of them kept a low profile, dressing quite simply. Now, everyone’s attention was focused on Shannon, and no one paid much attention to them
They, aking with Chris, who stayed in the back, the group followed the crowd into the banquet hall
After entering the ball, the Moore couple had already taken their daughter around to introduce her to the guests, Jessie was now introducing her to a wealthydy in her circle.
“Shannon, how did you manage to borrow that Bentley?” thedy askeil, her tone tinged with jealousy as she nced towards the car parked outside the floor–to–ceiling windows.

Shannon naturally understood what she meant and smiled, “I was borrowed. The car’s owner personally drove us here.”
“<b>No</b>, what I meant was, you know, that luxury car collector,” she suddenly realized and nced towards theck, Chris, Lea, and a few others quietly stayed together, appearing inconspicanus in her ey
Her face darkened immediately, and shemented, “Miss Moore, your words ilon’t seem sincere enough”
She had just met her and was already tr
y trying to deceive het.
even though she was an elder
“The car really belongs to Chris,” Shannon said with a smile. Her face was bright and cheerful, but her tone was full of certainty.
Thedy gasped, “How how could that be?“
How could someone like Chris, who was <b>just </b>a working woman, possibly own such a car?
“Could it be that someone recently gave it to her?” Thedy asked as she stared mockingly at Chris in the distance andmented, “Riverview Hospital is indeed doing quite well recently. <b>Many </b>big investors must be seeking her out. Investors are always willing to spend big money, and someone like her couldn’t resist such temptations”
She retracted her gaze and looked back <b>at </b>Shannon, adding, “But Miss <b>Moore</b>, don’t you know? This is bribery, and it’s practically a life sentence for something of this magnitude”
Jessie’s face turned pale, and Quintin stood by them in silence.
This was the first time their daughter had returned home, the first time meeting these elders. Knowing her past experiences, they were both very nervous, afraid she might make a mistake, so they followed her closely.
At this point, his face also couldn’t hold up anymore.
She was directly using Chris ofmitting a crime and using Riverview Hospital ofmitting a crime, and these were all her daughter’s friends. This was essentially not <b>giving </b>the Moore family <b>any </b>respect
Just as he was about to <b>speak</b>, Shannon smiled and looked at the woman sarcastically as she replied, “Thisdy is really amusing, but these words might be better suited for the police
“Would you like me to introduce y
you to some police officers?”
The woman’s face immediately changed, and she pressed her lips together, not daring to speak further.
In’t be b
Shannon couldn’t be bothered to look at her again and walked away.
After taking just one step, another wealthydy nearby said, “Miss Moore, your <b>dress </b>is very beautiful. Is it from <b>a </b>renowned designer, or is it thetest design! Did you <b>ask </b>someone to pull some strings to borrow. ir”
She nced at Lea and the others in the back andmented, “Did you <b>have </b>that Dr. Berry‘ help you out!”
In their circle, the only one with such capability was Dr. Berry.
To make a grand impression, the Moore family must have pulled out all the stops but borrowed things were never theirs and would only make them look even more pathetic.
This was clearly an attempt to embarrass her and disgrace the Moore family publicly.
“No.” Shannon said calmly.
“No! Then it must be rented, right? The rental fee must be quite high, the wealthydy smiled even more broadly,
If she didn’t tear off this wild child’s <b>mask </b>today, then in the future, Jessie would climb above her in the social circle, and she would <b>end </b>up being the lowest ranked
A crowd had already <b>gathered </b>around, <b>curious </b>and eager to strip away the elegant <b>facade </b>of the Moore <b>family’s </b>daughter, exposing the wild child who grew up being abused by a criminal
“Madam, you’ve <b>guessed </b>twice and still didn’t get it right! How could <b>you </b>be so stupid? Chris stepped forward, unable to watch any longer, andmented
She twirled a ss of red wine in her hand and <b>gave </b>the woman a once–over before adding. You really don’t seem that smart
“You, a mere worker… The wealthydy was about tosh out.
Chris didn’t <b>allow </b>her to continue <b>speaking </b><b>and </b>pressed on. “This dress was bought by Shannun herself. It was indeed a bit pricey, about twenty thousand dors“>
The dress, of course, wasn’t bought by Shannon herself. She usually wouldn’t even buy <b>clothes </b>costing over 40 dors, let alone spend 20 thousand
dors on a dress<b>. </b>

Shannon straightened her back, and the new of them exchanged nces<b>, </b>understanding each other without words
Now, she nned to buy the dress to disy her strength appropriately.
Chris continued, “Our Shannon is the technical director at Riverview Hoyital and also a shareholder. This small amount of money is nothing But Madam,” she shifted her gaze and probed, “what position ile you hold! Whichpany are you a shareholder of?”

“Oh, asking like this might be offensive. After all, you are all of the same generation as Mrs. Moore,” Chris said with a yful smile and added. “Then what about your children? Where are they employed? What have they achieved?”
