Chapter 287
Sabina said, “Though our Macin family isn’t as prestigious as the Lamont family, we’re not some n
obodies either. It’s just an invitation, so just send it openly. No need to look for any excuses!”
Natalia nodded slowly, “Your grandparents are more conservative, but you’re much more open–
minded.”
Sabina just smiled faintly without replying.
Natalia chuckled, “Even though it’s your grandmother’s birthday celebration, I still hope you
can invite Jonathan. If hees, wouldn’t it show your status in the Lamont Group?”
Sabina suddenly remembered the scene she saw in
the CEO’s office this afternoon and was a bit dazed, only replying after a while, “I think grandpa’s right.
It’s grandma’s birthday, and most of the guests are wives. It’s not quite appropriate to invite Mr. Lamont.
Besides, he doesn’t seem to like attending these kinds of events.”
“Oh, is that so!” Natalia
was a bit disappointed but immediately smiled, “Alright, as long as someone from the Lamont family co
mes, it’s fine. If Cathrine Lamontes, it would be such an honor for us!”
“Hmm!” Sabina absentmindedly nodded.
“A month ago, I already ordered a dress and jewelry for you. If Cathrinees, you have to dress appr
opriately and make asting impression on her!” Natalia proudly said, looking at her daughter.
Sabina’s face turned a bit red, but she replied sarcastically, “Mom, what kind of girls haven’t they seen?
Are you trying to make me aughingstock?”
Natalia realized her mistake and nodded regretfully, “You’re right. How could I be so confused? Thank g
oodness you reminded me!”
Sabina smiled faintly, “Don’t worry about me. I’m going back to my room if there’s nothing else.”
“You go ahead!”
Watching her tall daughter leave, Natalia felt more and more certain that her daughter would be
the future Mrs. Lamont of the Lamont Group.
The next day, Cathrine received the invitation from the Macin family.
She discussed with Norah, “We don’t usually
have much contact with the Macin family. Should we go or not?”
Norah was binge–
watching a show on the couch and casually said, “It’s simple. If you want to go, then go. If you
don’t, then don’t!”
Cathrine shook her head, “Have you forgotten? We were once inws with the Macin family!”
Norah suddenly realized, “I’ve totally forgotten about that!”
Cathrine pondered, “Even though the marriage has been dissolved, we still had that rtionship, so it’s
awkward whether we go or not.”
“Why don’t you ask my uncle?” Norah suggested.
Cathrine snorted, “Jonathan couldn’t care less about social interactions like this! I’ll just not go and
have Mird prepare a gift to be sent.”
Norah looked up and asked, “Why send Mird?”
Cathrine nced at her, “Jonathan is the one who married their daughter, and Mird is his subordinate
. He knows how to handle what kind of gift to send!”
Norah wasn’t convinced, “Our marriage with the Macin family was a business deal anyway. It doesn’
t matter what we send, since we won’t have much to do with them in the future!”
“That’s true, but we were once inws, so we can’t just let the Macin family think we’re unreliable.”
As Cathrine spoke, she picked up the phone and called Mird, telling him about sending a birthday gift
to the Macin family.
Mird respectfully responded that he would arrange it.
Although he had to obey Cathrine’s orders, after hanging up the phone, Mird couldn’t help but frown.
Cathrine and Jonathan both thought that their marriage with the Macin family had been dissolved, b
ut only he knew the marriage still existed. More importantly, Estelle, who Jonathan thought, had nothing
to do with him anymore, was sleeping in his own bed every day!
Estelle would definitely attend Elizabeth’s birthday. Mird thought about
it and decided that even for Estelle’s sake, he should prepare a generous gift for the Macin family.

After inquiring about Elizabeth’s preferences, Mird learned that she liked watercolor paintings. So, h
e went to an auction house and bought one as a gift for the olddy.
