Chapter 192


    “What a sucker! She picked out the fakes and the rejects.”


    Tve been into antiques for over a decade, and I’ve never seen anyons so foolish. Even a three


    year–old wouldn’t end up with all fakes and rejects.”


    Their voices were delibemtely kept low, but Yvonne still heard them. Her face suddenly turned ugly,


    and she stared daggers at Flora. “Flora, you yed me!”


    “Only just figured that out?” Flora couldn’t help butugh.


    “You-” Yvonne was livid, raising her hand to strike Flora, forgetting she was holding a bunch of stuff


    in her arms. As she let go, everything crashed to the ground, shattering into pieces.


    Yvonne felt her heart bleeding.


    Eight million, just gone like that….


    The culprit, Flora, had already left, striding confidently away.


    On the day of the banquet.


    The Bryant family was universally respected, and at Josiah’s birthday banquet, almost every


    notable person in Cedarvale was present


    Outside the vi, expensive cars came and went. Inside, the hall was filled with elegant dresses and


    fine wines, with guests mingling everywhere


    Flora wore a pale blue knee–length dress, dignified and elegant, with brown hair cascading over her


    shoulders, curling slightly at the ends, adding a touch of yfulness. Her lightly made–up face


    under the lights made her skin look almost translucent, stunningly beautiful She captivated


    everyone’s attention.


    Raul and Henrik also wore suits in a simr shade, and the three of them immediately became the


    center of attention upon their arrival.

    Among the guests were several eligible bachelors who, upon seeing Flora walk in, couldn’t hide


    their admiration.


    In aer, Yvonne shyly covered her face with her hand, giggling demurely


    “You’re quite theedian, I enjoy traveling as well; we should go together sometime…” Yvonne


    spoke, her voice tinged with shyness


    However, the man who had been eagerly chatting with her a moment ago was now distractedly


    looking towards the door soon excusing himself in a hurry. “Miss Yvonne, I’ve got something to


    attend to, Please excuse me.”


    “Hey, you…” Yvonne was taken aback. He had just said he waspletely free today and that his


    only task was to stay by her side!


    The man hurried off, then stopped to straighten his outfit before picking up a new ss of wine and


    approaching a girl in a light blue dress


    Recognizing the girl, Yvonne’s eyes widened, filled with hatred.


    Flora was here, too!


    “What are you looking at?” Selene asked, approaching with a ss of red wine and noticing


    Yvonne’s unusual demeanor


    She found these types of gatherings quite boring, but Josiah had once been kind to the Brimer


    family. Her grandfather had specifically asked her to attend the banquet.


    “Selene, that bitch Flora is here!” Yvonne said angrily, her eyes zing with fury.


    Selene nced in the direction Yvonne had been looking and, indeed, saw Flora in her gown.


    Remembering the incident with the speech and the antique shop, she frowned slightly and then


    looked away.


    “Don’t provoke her, you’re no match for her.”


    “Selene, how can even you be afraid of her!”


    Selene’s expression darkened.


    Selene was hailed as a prodigy doctor and pampered since childhood. Would she be afraid of


    Flora? Impossible.


    Sensing Selene’s displeasure, Yvonne realized she had misspoken and quickly fell silent, not daring


    to say more.
