Chapter 322


    Chapter 322 The Scapegoat


    Before Cora received a call from Flora, she was apanying Nora to attend another one of those


    wealthy wives'' parties.


    The theme this time was music appreciation.


    In addition to being the hostess of the Hansen family, Nora was also a well-known pianist.


    To make friends with her, many rich wives started to learn piano, and some of them even sent their


    children to the piano tutoring ss opened by Nora.


    Now, for the music appreciation event held by Nora, almost all the rich wives from New York gathered


    in the piano room.


    Incredibly, there were a lot of unmarried daughters who apanied their mothers to the party.


    Sara also brought Jane to attend. In addition to Jane''s extraordinary aplishments in piano, Sara


    herself was also a well-known local pianist in New York, and many of New York''s pianopetitions


    had invited her to be a judge.


    "Jane, what have you been up totely? See how thin you have be recently?"


    Jane was striking among the crowd of famousdies and daughters.


    Especially Nora''s tender affection for her made Jane the crowd''s focus.


    In contrast, Cora, who Nora had brought to be by her side for this wealthy wives'' party, her presence


    was almost transparent.


    "Yes, Nora, except for the busy work in the hospital, everything else is fine."


    Jane had a non-aggressive, easy-going attitude through her words.


    This was also the reason Nora liked her the most.


    However, Nora didn''t know that while holding Jane''s hand affectionately, Jane was secretly ncing at


    Cora from the corner of her eyes.


    Cora was wearing a long beige dress today. She tied her hair sideways with a ribbon of the same color.


    In addition, she had a pair of high heels of the same color. No matter how you looked at it, one could


    see that she was attentive to the party.


    When Jane looked at Cora carefully, she saw Cora''s eyes suddenly swept over her way.


    She quickly looked away and smiled at Nora.


    "You''re a good kid. It''s Byron who is confused." Noraforted Jane, but she was actually expressing


    her dislike of Cora to Jane in disguise.

    In fact, Jane knew that Nora didn''t like Cora.


    Otherwise, Nora wouldn''t have specially organized such a gathering to bring together many


    outstanding New York socialites.


    "Nora, it''s not Byron''s fault, don''t take it to heart." Jane kept her considerate persona, and her words


    spoke to Nora''s heart.


    Everyone knew that Nora spoiled Byron so much. She mightin about Byron, but if someone


    used Byron of making a mistake, Nora surely would go to his defense.


    So Jane spoke out her thoughts. In doing so, wouldn''t this win the favor of Nora?


    But when Cora heard these words, she inevitably felt ufortable.


    Jane didn''t admit that it was her own fault, and she also said that it wasn''t Byron''s fault, so was it Cora


    to me?


    Was she the scapegoat?


    It was just that in front of so many people, Cora didn''t want to cause a scene.


    So she didn''t express her opinion. She was like a wooden figure, and Nora didn''t take it seriously.


    "Child, you are so sensible that it makes people heartsick. I will help you to talk to Byron..."


    That hinted to Jane that Nora did not approve of Cora.


    Jane thought that she and Byron were still possible!


    Jane had been in this circle since childhood, so she naturally understood Nora''s hints and was


    immediately overjoyed.


    Because during the party, she had a smile on her face all that time.


    Especially when facing Cora, that smile was even brighter...


    Cora could only temporarily ignore Jane''s almost provocative behavior, not because she was afraid of


    standing her ground, but because she really didn''t have time.


    After greeting Jane, Nora instructed Cora to help in the reception of those wealthydies.


    The reason was that you represented me and the Hansen family, hosting the wives and youngdies.


    In all the grandeur, it made Cora a member of the waiters.


    There was thedy who said she wanted to eat some fruit and asked Cora to bring it, and there was


    the youngdy who thought there was not enough ice in the drink and asked Cora to get it.


    It was not that Cora couldn''t see through these people. They were counting on Nora didn''t ept her,


    therefore, treated her like a clown.


    But she didn''t want to refute Nora and didn''t want to make things difficult for Byron, so she could only


    grit her teeth and endure it.


    The pair of 4-inch high-heeled shoes hurt her feet from all that serving coffee and pouring water, but


    she didn''t squeak...


    When Cora was busy, Sara looked at her alluring back and suddenly suggested, "There are many


    young girls at the party today. Why don''t they alle and y a song."
