Mr. Grant Treats Me Like a Treasure
Chapter 694 - 693: Changing Faces
The Ford Family’s banquet, not many in the Imperial Capital actually want to attend!
However, whether they want to or not, they have to go!
Firstly, the Kane Family is known for their small-mindedness; if you fail to give them face by attending their rare banquet, you risk being targeted for revenge;
Secondly, they heard that the entire Sterling Family would actually be attending.
This past month, the feud between the Kane and Sterling families has been the talk of the Imperial Capital, leaving everyone thinking the two families could never be separated. Who would have thought that an illegitimate daughter could cause such a stir in the Sterling Family? Because of her, The Sterling Corporation sent Young Master Kane to the police station; because of her, Simon Sterling and June Kane got divorced.
These events truly took high society in the Imperial Capital by surprise.
Just a few days ago, the story of Nancy Sterling’s biological mother spread throughout the Imperial Capital again, and everyone couldn’t help but be fascinated by the Sterling and Kane families’ strife, wondering who would win or lose!
Drawn by the spectacle, they all went.
Upon arriving at the Kane’s residence, they discovered a complete change in the Kane family’s attitude. When they saw the Eldest Miss Sterling, their faces were all smiles, which was utterly perplexing.
Since they had to go to the Kane’s, the entire Sterling family went.
This time, they didn’t go in groups; instead, the whole Sterling family went together.
Even Mindy Sterling set aside her overseas matters and hurried back to accompany Serena Sullivan.
The several cars belonging to the Sterling family parked outside the Kane’s residence, and a group of people followed alongside Serena Sullivan and walked in.
When they came, they had made up their minds that today they must protect Serena Sullivan at all costs and not let anything happen to her within the Kane’s residence.
Serena looked at the Eldest Master and Second Master Sterling by her sides and smiled helplessly. With them protecting her so well, how could there be any opportunity for the Kane family to act against her!
On second thought, it’s probably for the best. The more thoroughly they protect her, the more the Kane family will want to find a chance to counter her, which will lead them to let their guard down.
If the Kane family truly wanted to act against her, being on their own territory, they would definitely find an opportunity to do so!
Ethan Grant pushed Serena Sullivan inside, and as they entered the garden of the Kane’s residence, The Dowager Kane, aided by an old maid, approached the group from the Sterling family.
She wore a smiling face, and when she saw Serena Sullivan, she called out warmly and kindly, "Nancy."
This address left the Sterling family in a daze, and that smiling face made them all feel uncomfortable.
Instead of feeling pleased by the change in The Dowager Kane’s attitude, they found her unusual and suspected she was up to something.
"Mr. Sterling, Mrs. Sterling!"
The Dowager Kane smiled and called out to the two elders of the Sterling family.
From her expression and tone, all that could be sensed was happiness, as if the relationship between the Kane and Sterling families was just as before, no, even better than before.
"Hello, Dowager Kane."
Mistress Sterling, adept at socializing, smiled and gave face to the Kane family.
"I am truly delighted that you could come." The Dowager Kane said, lowering her head to look at Serena Sullivan, "Eldest Miss Sterling, no, Nancy, seeing you come truly makes me happy!"
"Previously, there were some misunderstandings between you and Wayne, and I also held some prejudices against you."
"These issues were what caused a rift between the Sterling and Kane families!"
A rift! A rift was putting it mildly; it was clearly a rupture in relations.
No one would be willing to come to the Kane’s banquet if not for Serena Sullivan’s presence!
This attendance was not to give face to the Kane family, but to protect Serena Sullivan!
"Haha!" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
The other members of the Sterling family looked to the sky, to the ground, or displayed expressions of indifference, choosing to ignore The Dowager Kane’s insincerity.
Mistress Sterling responded with two "hahas," which was a form of acknowledgement.
The Dowager Kane was not satisfied just yet; she smiled and continued, "This time I hosted the banquet specifically to invite Nancy."
