Chapter 738


    “Yuna, if you don''t attend Peter''s birthday celebration, he''ll be unhappy. After all, he likes you so much." Ruby tried to persuade Yuna.


    This made Yuna be even more frustrated


    She knew that very well. Even though she had disappointed Peter previously, he liked her a lot and wouldn''tpletely lose all his affection for her


    just because of that one incident.


    But it would be hard to say if she didn’t attend the birthday celebration this time.


    She hadn''t given up on Tobias yet. If she still wanted to fight for it, she absolutely couldn''t give up on her trump card, Peter.


    "I''ll go." After a while, Yuna heaved a huge sigh. “At most, I''ll just have to endure that Natalie being all conceited."


    "Yuna, don''t worry, she definitely won''t.” A hint of scheming shed in Ruby''s eyes. "I will definitely let that country bumpkin suffer humiliation on that


    day.”


    Yuna was stunned.


    She looked at Ruby in confusion. “Mom, what do you mean?"


    Ruby curled her lips and said, "Yuna, rest assured that I''ll help you get payback for the humiliation you suffered that day. I''ll turn that country bumpkin


    into theughingstock of the night!"


    Yuna had told Ruby about Natalie before, and Ruby had done some investigating into Natalie''s background. She was absolutely confident.


    On the day of Peter''s birthday celebration, Ruby would humiliate Natalie and make her theughingstock of the crowd


    With so many of the Whitlock family''s friends and rtives present, the Whitlock family would definitely reconsider epting Natalie if she were to


    make a fool out of herself.


    The day of Peter''s birthday celebration arrived in the blink of an eye


    The Whitlock family mansion was especially decorated on this day.


    The huge vi was entirely lit up with light. the warm yellow lights mixing in with the moonlight.


    There were plenty of nobles and socialites present, and the space in front of the mansion was parked full of luxurious cars.


    A ck Lincoln stopped there, and out stepped an old man in a military uniform, holding a walking stick. Yuna and Ruby were with him as well, and


    they were dressed to the nines.


    Yuna was dressed up very beautifully.


    She was wearing a bright red dress, which outlined her beautiful figure perfectly.


    As soon as she got out of the car, she attracted everyone''s attention.


    Upon entering thevishly decorated lobby, Peter specially came out to greet them.


    "Leonald, I didn''t expect you to be here today. What an honor!" Peter greeted the old man with the walking stick.


    He was Yuna''s grandfather, Leonald Sherman, and he was one of Peter''s oldrade-in-arms.


    "Of course I had to attend your birthday celebration, Peter.” Leonald''s gaze fell on Yuna, who was standing to one side. "Yuna, why aren''t you


    greeting your Grandpa Peter?”


    Yuna bit her lip and said rather shyly, "Grandpa Peter, happy 80th birthday." She paused, then lowered her voice. "You''re... you''re not still angry at


    me, are you?"


    Her voice was deliberately lowered, making her seem to be extra apprehensive.


    Peter''s heart ached at Yuna’s appearance, and he forgot all about his anger.


    “How could I be angry with you? Don''t think too much, Yuna," Peter said cheerfully. "I''m happy to see youe today."


    Yuna immediately smiled.


    Ruby also said, “Mr. Whitlock, happy 80th birthday! May you be blessed with a long life and great prosperity."


    Peter smiled and waved his hands, saying. “You can skip the formalities. I wasn''t nning to have a birthday celebration initially, I just wanted to have


    a meal at home. But they insisted on it!"


    Ruby looked around and asked, "Mr. Whitlock, why isn''t your granddaughter-inw here?”


    Peter''s face stiffened.


    Peter had originally thought that Yuna was the only one aware of Natalie''s existence. He didn’t know the whole Sherman family knew.


    A trace of guilt shed in Peter''s eyes.


    He owed his life to Leonald, and he''d nned on matchmaking Tobias and Yuna


    However, Tobias didn''t fancy Yuna, but fell for Natalie instead.


    Peter felt very guilty.


    He said vaguely, “Who knows."


    Ruby said pointedly, "Mr. Whitlock,


    we didn''t know that Tobias had


    someonehé liked. If we''d known, we


    wouldn’ have allowed Yuna to even


    come Ato contact with him. My>


    Yuna’ one ina million, and you don''t


    even know how many young men


    afé interested in her." Coritent

    Peter''s eyes briefly shone with irritation.


    Even though Yuna had something like that the night before, it didn''tpletely wipe out Peter''s affection for her.


    Peter was conservative at heart and still believed that marriage should be between families of equal rank.


    Yuna obviously suited Tobias more than Natalie did.


    “Ruby!” Leonald looked at his daughter-inw with displeasure.


    Ruby chucklees"Oh, I just blurted it


    out by ident. It''s nothing much,


    really. MrsWhitlock, which family if~

    Ruby''s question was intended to make Peter feel ufortable.


    She was also certain that Peter wouldn''t do anything to her no matter how ufortable he felt.


    Peter was a person who valued rtionships. He owed Yuna''s grandfather his life.


    Which was why Peter wouldn''t disrespect Leonald.


    As expected, although Peter looked a little embarrassed, he didn''t get angry.


    His voice lowered as he said, "She''s from an ordinary family."


    Ruby let out a mockingugh, not hiding her contempt.


    "Ruby, take Yuna with you. I have something to say to Peter." Leonald could see what Ruby was up to.


    He sighed secretly.


    Women were so petty.


    Yuna linked arms with Ruby and headed towards the center of the hall.


    The Whitlock family mansion had an extremelyrge hall, and it could hold a few hundred people. It had been specially decorated for the celebration.


    "Mom, didn''t you say that you would humiliate Natalie? Why did you do that to Grandpa Peter instead?" Yuna whispered to Ruby.


    Ruby smirked. "What do you know? I was doing


    that to make him dislike Natalie even more so that he''ll make life harder for her.”


    Malice shed through Yuna''s eyes.


    Her lips curved into a smile. "Mom, you''re still the best.”Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Ruby looked proud. "Of course."


    When they arrived at the buffet area, there were already a number of socialites gathered there, sipping champagne as they chatted.


    Ruby and Yuna had already met with these socialites previously, and they soon got into conversation with each other.


    The topic of conversation gradually moved to Tobias
