    374 Charity event


    “I think so too,” Jeslyn smiled. (1)


    Madam Caroline’s lips curled into a sneer when she heard that. Her thoughts were unknown. “Piper


    dear, you didn’t tell me-”


    “Kim, step closer, we should take a picture together,” Piper cut her mother off and dragged Kimberly


    and Jeslyn to take a group picture.


    “Mrs. Lu, you and your Sisters–inw look beautiful,” one reporter stylishly shoved Madam Caroline


    out of the way to get in front of Jeslyn and Co.


    Madam Caroline could feel her nails digging into her palm as she tried hard to restrain herself. Seeing


    the big innocent smile on Jeslyn’s face made her want to wipe it off, but she can’t do anything in public.


    Besides, Jeslyn should have herugh now, her doom is nearer than she imagined. As for the


    reporters, they’ll regret the humiliation they caused her soon.


    With that in mind, Madam Caroline stormed off and went into the hotel.


    Jeslyn chuckled lightly when she saw that, but addressed the reporter in a friendly tone, “Everyone,


    including yourself, is beautiful,” Jeslyn replied.


    The reporter blushed. “Thank you… please, can you answer a few questions about your fabulous


    dresses and jewelry?” She said to Jeslyn and her sisters–inw.


    Jeslyn was wearing a white knee–length off–shoulder dress. It was in and simple but one would


    know that it cost a fortune when they saw it.


    Piper wore a purple mermaid dress, embellished with beautiful pearls, making her look like a goddess.


    Kimberly on the other hand, wore a sexy red dress and a long white overcoat.


    The three pretty girl goddesses took photos for a while before they went into the hotel.


    Inside the hall of the hotel, there were already tens ofdies and women either sitting on their seats or


    standing around and gisting with drinks in hand.


    The interior of the hall looked nothing like a simple venue for a charity event, rather it gave the vibe of a


    huge celebration.


    Jeslyn frowned slightly. This wasn’t the decoration she talked about with the event nners, so


    what’s this about?


    Kimberly and Piper also looked confused but decided to not say a word since Jeslyn wasn’t talking


    either.


    The front row had a seat with Piper’s name but Jeslyn’s and Kimberly’s seats couldn’t be found


    anywhere.


    Seeing this, Jeslyn looked around the hall. There were a few faces she was familiar with. Faces like the


    ex–Mayor and new Mayor’s wives, Madam Lu’s, and the women from the Xu and Yu family.


    She only had an issue with Madam Lu at Valen’s school but she believed the woman wouldn’t dare to


    cross her. The only person who would do such a thing would be none other than her mother–inw.


    At this junction, Jeslyn chuckled and shook her head. It seems my mother–inw wants a public


    disy of *love*.


    I’ll show you some *love*, dear mother–inw.‘ she smiled.


    When Jeslyn and her Sisters–inw entered the hall, most of the women anddies were pleased to


    see them. Who wouldn’t want to make friends with the women from the second branch of the Lu


    family?


    Beverly and Celestine smiled and started walking towards Jeslyn with their ss of drinks.


    “Long time no see, dear sister,” Beverly smiled.

    “How have you been?” Jeslyn chuckled and enveloped Beverly in a friendly hug before she greeted


    Celestine.


    The other people felt this was a great chance to get close to Jeslyn, so they approached her one after


    the other to strike up a conversation.


    Unlike before when they’d crowd around Madam Caroline, this time, those who were crowding around


    her were a few she considered to be of the same ss as her, which made her hatred for Jeslyn hike


    up.


    Madam Caroline loved the feeling of being the center of attention. She wants to be the name on


    everyone’s lips but Jeslyn was stealing her limelight and she hated it with every fiber of her being.


    The event soon started but Madam Caroline couldn’t find peace, She was more worried about the


    luxury she was seeing.


    This is her hard–earned money!


    Although she made changes to everything that Jeslyn wanted, she was still not pleased with spending


    so much money. Thinking of that, Madam Caroline traveled down memoryne.


    After Jeslyn sent her an invitation card and mocked her, Madam Caroline mourned for a while before


    she tracked down the event nner Jeslyn contacted, then she forced thepany to change


    everything that Jeslyn told them to do, including the drinks.


    Nobody knew that she had no money anymore, so everyone still sees her as the wealthiest woman in


    the world. Besides, her connections were more than her money.


    How could Jeslyn be this wicked? Jeslyn’s husband stole her money and Jeslyn wasted the money on


    irrelevant things! The woman suddenly feels a migraine whenever she thinks of the money spent.


    “Carol, isn’t that your daughter–inw? She seems happy, why are you still tolerating her?” One of the


    women standing close to Madam Caroline asked with a frown.


    “I wonder. I thought you said you’d take care of her. I don’t see you doing any of that,” another woman


    supported.


    “It seems Carol has started to consider her-”


    “Don’t spout nonsense,” Madam Caroline cut her friend off. “My son is still with her just to get back at


    me. Don’t worry, I told her before that she’d be sorry for crossing my path and today, she can’t


    escape!” Her eyes narrowed as she looked in Jeslyn’s direction.


    The ssy Madam Caroline didn’t want to create a scene in public but the happiness that was


    radiating from Jeslyn kept tempting her to throw this ce into a chaotic ground.


    While the woman was deep in thought, she didn’t see Jeslyne to her. Not until Jeslyn tapped her


    arm and smiled sweetly, “Mother–inw, the hostess needs


    your attention.”


    The hostess was already on stage and was getting ready to start.


    “How dare you touch me!” Madam Caroline


    raised her hand to p her but Jeslyn was quick enough to grab the hand in mid–air.
