Chapter 822 A Special Invitation (Part Two)
Sharon hastily said, "That''s right. Look." She took the invitation and handed it to Greg. Then she
added, "The JC Group is really affluent. You can easily tell by just looking at the design of their
invitation. Our names are here and if you touch them, you can feel them with your fingers."
Greg looked at the invitation and seemed to understand what happened. He thought that this party was
intentionally held by Lawrence, possibly targeting at Sharon.
Greg turned to her father, "Father, if you''re busy, you don''t need to go there. The JC Group might have
invited a lot of people and you might feel ufortable there. It will only waste your time." He wanted
to stop them from going to the party to avoid meeting Lawrence. Knowing that his family might be in
danger, he would need to stop them before something happened.
Before Fred could open his mouth, Sharon spoke up, "Greg, you can''t say that. We know that lots of
people will be at that party because the JC Group is the most powerfulpany in this city. This is also
the reason why we should go there. Juste to think of it. We will meet a lot of powerful and
important people there such as the managers and the CEOs of the JS Group, ZM Group and H King
Group. So many top management personnel will attend the party. If we go there tomorrow night, we will
probably get the chance to know these people."
When he saw Sharon''s wide smile, Greg could already tell that she was now imagining the party.
However, he was worried that the party wouldn''t be as wonderful and cheerful as she thought of it.
Instead, tomorrow night might be the most embarrassing moment for her.
Fred looked at Greg then turned to Sharon. But he didn''t know what to say. Besides, Sharon didn''t
know that Lawrence was Violet''s brother.
Since Fred and Greg remained silent, Sharon happily dered, "So it''s settled then. I''ll go and cook
dinner now. Greg, you should talk with your father."
Then she stood up and walked to the kitchen.
After Sharon had left and Fred was sure that she couldn''t hear them anymore, he turned to Greg and
asked seriously, "Greg, what is going on?" His expression now was totally different from the expression
he showed in front of Sharon a while ago. "Why did Lawrence suddenly invite all of us?" he added.
Fred clearly knew that the rtionship between his son and Violet was not going well now. He actually
felt sorry for her and her family. But the JC Group suddenly invited them to a party so he couldn''t figure
out what Lawrence wanted to do. He was wondering what really happened that pushed Lawrence to do
this.
Greg lowered his head to avoid Fred''s gaze, "Father, do you still remember what happened to Cassie?"
Fred was puzzled at first then he became astonished. He looked at his son and quickly asked, "Are you
saying that..."
Before he could finish, Greg nodded his head and replied, "Yes. It was Lawrence who did it to her."
Fred stared at his son and questioned, "So he has known what happened between you and Violet?"
"Yes, he has. You should already know what kind of person Lawrence is. Nobody can hide anything
from him."
Fred said, "Then he must hate us all because he thinks that we mistreated Violet bad." After Violet had
lost her baby, he also med himself for what happened. Actually, this made everyone unhappy.
Greg didn''t reply anymore. Now that Lawrence hated him that much, he couldn''t find a reason to
defend himself. He couldn''t deny the fact that he did something wrong. However, if only Violet would
return to him, he would be willing to do anything.
After a moment of silence, Greg said, "Father, you better discourage aunt from going to the party
tomorrow. Anyway, nobody will pay attention to her even though she shows up there. Besides, this
party was arranged by Lawrence so I''m afraid that he might do something bad to aunt."
Fred fell into silence. He lowered his head, seemed to be contemting.
Since Fred didn''t say anything, Greg continued, "Father, I know that you have a very good rtionship
with Uncle Derek. However, she is currently not in the city and his rtionship with my father-inw is
better than yours. So, if you and aunt will go to the party and Lawrence really does something to you,
Derek won''t be able to help you. Lawrence is like a son to Uncle Derek and they are very close to each
other."
Fred knew that Greg was right. The rtionship between the Chu Family and the Lu Family was well-
known in this city. As Greg had just said, his rtion with Derek Lu was good butpared to the Chu
Family, he was nothing to Derek.

Greg kept persuading his father, "I don''t like aunt because she has mistreated Violet and she even tried
to ruin our rtionship. But father, I know how important she is to you and I also have to consider your
safety. So it would be best if you don''t go to the party tomorrow." Tomorrow, he would also talk to Tim
and Alice before he would decide whether he would go to the party or not.
Fred said, "I actually didn''t intend to go. We owe the Chu Family and Violet and we should apologize to
them." Then he looked into Greg''s eyes and continued, "But Greg, something just can''t be avoided. If
Lawrence decides to do something and it is not so way out of line, I can totally ept it because we
owe the Chu Family and we owe Violet''s unborn baby.''
Greg''s heart softened. He had wanted to shoulder this responsibility alone but he wasn''t excepting that
his father also med himself for what happened. He couldn''t help but call him, "Father."
"My son, I know what you want to say. I know you and Violet are the saddest people since you''ve lost
your baby. But if I can do something for you, I will be happy. I will talk to your aunt tonight but if she still
wants to go, I''ll go with her."
Greg looked at his father''s face and found nothing else to say. He had never enjoyed his mother''s care
and love but he now felt warm because of his father''s concern.
