Chapter 22


    Lilith, who had always been submissive, actually made such a request to Mildred today for the sake


    of Hera Giselle, once again, had a sense of crisis.


    “Really?” Mildred asked doubtfully, ncing at Hera without the disgust in her eyes as yesterday,


    She didn’t expect a bumpkin like Hera to be so intelligent that she actually scored full marks in the


    exam


    It had to be the Everetts‘ genes! Her genius first grandson was the best proof.


    “Mr. Larkin personally announced the results. All the teachers and students of Cavenridge know


    about it. I’ve decided to invite everyone in the academy to a banquet tomorrow and have also


    notified the reporters,” James said excitedly.


    Hearing this, Mildred felt distressed. “It’ll cost a fortune!”


    The current financial situation of the Everett family looked good on the surface but was


    optimistic in realit


    They could manage to hold a small party, but there were tens of thousands of people at


    Cavenridge. Moreover, for a school of Cavenridge’s level, they couldn’t just prepare


    ordinary meals


    After making a rough calction of the cost, Mildred nearly passed out.


    “No matter how much it costs, we have to spend it! This is the best chance to prove our family’s


    financial strength and cultural level.


    “After this banquet, I believe the Everett family can be one of the prominent families in


    Norburgh By then, we’ll naturally have more business!” James spoke enthusiastically.


    He had already thought about it. If there wasn’t enough money, he could mortgage the mansion and


    get a loan from the bank to hold a grand celebration banquet and invite arge group of reporters.


    In this way, the Everett family would be famous. Then, they could advertise Everett Group and


    wait for business toe. Within half a year, they would earn back the money and redeem the


    house from the bank.


    Mildred had spent half of her life as a farmer in the countryside. After the Everett family became


    wealthy, she became a richdy who only knew how to show off but didn’t know how to run a


    business.


    To her, James‘ eloquent speech sounded like he would make a fortune soon. Since it was also for


    the sake of the Everett family’s reputation, she thought it might be a good idea.


    “Okay, let’s do as you say.” Mildred nodded at james and then looked at Hera. “I can give you


    Gino’s study, but you have to change your surname back to ”


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    All of Hera’s glory at tomorrow’s banquet would truly belong to the Everett family only if she were an


    Everett instead of an adopted daughter. Mildred’s n was wless


    “Will I also have the identity as the Everett family’s daughter back?” Hera asked.


    Listening to them discussing holding a banquet for Hera, Giselle felt that her status in the Everett


    family seemed to be in jeopardy. Hera’s question further put her on the alert


    Sure enough, this country bumpkin still wanted to take back her identity as the daughter of the


    Everett family!


    The thought of the dpidated house in the rural vige was repulsive to Giselle. She would never


    return to that slum again in her life!


    Giselle quietly went out to make a phone call while nobody was paying a


    In the living room, Mildred choked at Hera’s question.


    attention


    “Didn’t I tell you before? The Gaskell family is interested in Gigi. The Everett family’s daughter can’t


    be changed!” James exined with displeasure


    The Everett family formed a marriage of convenience with the Gaskell family in order to maintain


    their business rtionship. It just so happened that Zyler fell in love with Giselle.


    If Hera were revealed to be the real daughter of the Everett family, the Gaskell family would


    definitely not ept a country bumpkin to be their daughter–inw.


    By then, if Zyler insisted on marrying Giselle, it would no longer have anything to do with the Everett


    family


    Therefore,


    Hera’s à identity couldn’t be disclosed before the Everett family’s business bloomed.


    “In that cas, it’s not necessary to change my surname. Anyway, I’m still the adopted daughter of the


    Everett family whichever surname I have,” Hera uttered in a calm tone


    The Everett family just wanted to have the reputation but was unwilling to take the risk. What a


    perfect calction!


    For a moment, Hera’s words rendered James and Mildred speechless.
