    The car sent by the branch office had arrived, and Dennis left. He could not be bothered by such


    a trivial matter as this.


    Marie knew that in such wealthy families, there was often little to none affection among family

    members. Even if Asher was extremely happy, he would still leave the shares to Noel and Olive if Marie


    didn’t showcase her abilities. At most, Asher would give her some real estates to rely on, but


    she would never be allowed to get involved in the group’s affairs.


    However, what Marie wanted was power and a strong background. After all, she could onlypete


    with Wren if she had those.


    In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Asher’s birthday party. The Spence family was a well-known


    wealthy household in Las Vegas. Asher was highly respected due to his prominent position in the


    business world.


    The Spence mansion was decoratedvishly that day to celebrate Asher’s 60th birthday.


    Mia led Carly to the front door to greet the guests, and the former’s smile was radiant as a blooming


    flower.


    She gave birth to three children for Mason before finally being able to rece Marie’s mother and


    marrying into the prestigious Spence family. Although there were gossips among the high society


    families. Thus, as long as she was a part of the Spence family, she would always be the respected Mrs.


    Spence!


    The guests mainly had arrived and were seated in the main hall when a housekeeper came in to


    announce that Noel had returned.


    Asher immediately said, “Let hime inside quickly. Usher him in.”


    Noel was Asher’s only grandson and the sole male heir of the Spence family. Thus, he was


    practically Asher’s favorite, causing him to hold 10% of the shares in the Spence Group, Moreover, he


    held the important position of general manager in thepany.


    A tall young man wearing a hand-tailored ck suit strode into the room. His expression was


    gentle, and his demeanor was calm. As he approached Asher, he presented a brocade box, and said,


    “May Grandpa be blessed with endless happiness and a long life!”


    Asher opened the brocade box, revealing two sets of chess inside. Noel’s assistant immediately


    stepped forward and said, “Old Mr. Spence, Mr. Spence knows you enjoy ying chess. These were


    specially brought back from Melrose on his behalf. The chess pieces are made of ivory, providing a


    warm touch in winter and a cool feel in summer. We hope they bring you joy.”


    Asher smiled widely as he couldn’t contain his excitement. Then, he asked someone to put away the


    items and arrange for Noel to be seated.


    Suddenly, there was a burst of exmations from outside. Everyone turned around and saw the hottest


    celebrity in the entertainment industry, Olive, walking through the door.

    Olive wore a long bright red dress, and her makeup was exquisite, causing her to look like a blooming


    rose. There were quite a few journalists at that day’s birthday party. Thus, as soon as Olive walked in,


    the shlights were non-ending.


    Olive walked and smiled, handed over the gift, and greeted, “Happy birthday, Grandpa! I wish you a


    long and healthy life!”


    Asher unwrapped the gift, revealing a book of chess moves from ancient times. Oliveughed and said,


    “I spent three months searching for these chess moves for Grandpa and finally got it at an auction. I


    hope you like it.”


    “I like it, of course! Good child, sit down and rest now,” Asher said happily.


    “Old Mr. Spence is truly blessed! His children are so respectful!” a senior man from nearby eximed.


    “The Spence family has an amazing grandson, and Ms. Olive, a hotshot! The Spence family is


    imposing!” said a well-dresseddy.


    “Mrs. Spence is the one truly blessed. Her children are all outstanding, and I heard that Ms. Carly is


    quite beautiful too!”mented anotherdy.


    Listening to everyone’spliments, Mia felt even happier in her heart. I am the one and only Mrs.


    Spence of the Spence family!


    Carly was even more proud of herself. With Noel and Olive so outstanding, what could Marie, an


    unwanted orphan, possibly have topare with her?


    As everyone was engaged in lively discussions, a housekeeper hurriedly entered the room and


    announced, “The Whitney family has arrived.
