Chapter 538
But what Agnes didn’t expect was that even before she set foot into the venue, there were already a
bunch of peopleing up to her to say hi.
“Ms. Pritchard, congrats!”
“Ms. Pritchard, love your new hairdo.”
“Ms. Pritchard, happy birthday.”
Agnes frowned.
It was clear. They had mistaken her for someone else.
They thought she was Beatrice.
But that left Agnes feeling puzzled.
Even though she and Beatrice were half–sisters, they looked nothing alike.
The fact that they had mistaken her for Beatrice was quite a shocker.
Feeling confused, Agnes walked into the banquet hall.
There were a few security guards standing at the entrance.
Their job was to check invitations and confirm the identities of guests.
When they saw Agnes, they seemed a bit perplexed.
“Ms. Beatrice, weren’t you just inside?”
Looks like even these guards had gotten her mixed up.
The confusion in Agnes‘ mind deepened.
But at least she didn’t have to show her invitation.
Agnes simply replied, “I stepped out to change my outfit.”
The guards found this very strange.
There was only one entrance to the banquet hall, and they knew all about theings and goings of
the guests.
Ms. Pritchard had just walked in less than ten minutes ago, and now she was back at the door with a
new outfit, makeover, and even a new hairstyle. It was mind–boggling.
But there was no mistaking that face, even though there was something off about it.
Now, the face seemed more pleasing to the eye.
But today was Ms. Pritchard’s birthday, so they didn’t dare to ck off.
They immediately opened the doors to the banquet hall.
And just like that, Agnes walked in.
Her entrance caused quite a stir.
This was something Agnes had expected, but not because people knew about her past, but because

of her face.
Today’s birthday girl was Beatrice.
Beatrice had just arrived in stunning attire ten minutes ago.
Her morous outfit attracted praises and gazes from everyone.
At this moment, many socialites wereplimenting and ttering her.
In this circle, Beatrice’s name was well–known.
Everyone referred to her as Ms. Beatrice.
She wasn’t originally from the Capital.
The Pritchard family was said to be a prestigious family in Willowbrook Town.
She was originally the daughter of Preston Pritchard, the chairman of Starlight International Group.
After Preston’s unexpected death, his wife married Berlin Thomas.
Beatrice became Berlin’s stepdaughter, and everyone started calling her Ms. Beatrice.
Ms. Beatrice’s reputation wasplicated. It was said that she was ruthless in the past, even hiring
killers. Her reputation was not good.
But then she had a car ident and forgot about her past.
Ever since then, she changed a lot and started doing charity work.
Although Ms. Beatrice’s influence wasn’t significant, her mother Laura was not to be underestimated.
People in the Capital knew what kind of person Berlin was. Over the years, he and his legitimate wife
led separate lives, each enjoying their own decadent life.
As Berlin got older, his girlfriends kept getting younger.
But what no one expected was, Berlin, who was in his fifties, had just divorced and married Laura,
who was in her forties.
That woman was very well–maintained and still full of charm.
But she was very different from Berlin’s preferred type of women over the decades.
What’s more, Berlin was originally the general manager of the Thomas Group, butter his
position was taken over by his biological daughter with his legitimate wife, Valeria.
In the end, he became the vice–president of the Thomas Group.
The position was a bit awkward, without much real power.
But anyhow, he was Cilian Thomas’s only brother.
Cilian had always been very indulgent and lenient towards this brother.
Therefore, Laura, riding on Berlin’s coattails, also made great progress in this circle.
She even founded her own jewelry brand and opened a few stores,
