"Miss Clark, Madam Joanne." Kelly suppressed her inner anxiety, gazed at Joanne quietly, and said with a smile, "Please come with me quickly. All the guests are almost here, and they've been waiting for both of you.""Joanne, this is Aunt Kelly. You can seek help from Aunt Kelly for anything in the manor," introduced Catelyn."Oh, hello, Aunt Kelly, I'm Joanne. Your help would be lovely when I'm around the manor."Joanne grinned at Kelly. The smile was sincere and naive, and it amused Kelly.Kelly could not believe that there was such a big contrast between Joanne's personality and the characters she played in the film and TV shows. She seemed to understand why Edwin would fall in love with her.She shook hands with Joanne and said respectfully, "Madam Joanne, I'll be here for you all the time. By the way, Granny Atherton has been thinking about you.""There's a show I've been working on, so I'm quite busy lately." Joanne habitually wanted to stroke her long hair, but when she re

Joanne wanted to decline Sylvie's gift when—"Since Grandma gifted this, you should accept it," a sexy, pleasant-sounding male voice came from not far.Edwin, dressed in a red suit, had his hands shoved in his trouser pockets, his glittering eyes rolled up in a smile. He looked like a handsome devil that walked out of a painting.Joanne and Catelyn were shocked by his red attire.They had long known that Edwin was handsome, but they were surprised that the red suit looked oddly great on him.Joanne's heart was beating wildly, and her eyes lit up as if they were about to pop out of her sockets. She pressed her chest with both hands, stupidly trying to slow her heartbeat down with that and suppress the urge to push him down.Edwin walked up to Joanne with a doting expression and held her right hand, realizing then that the bracelet on her wrist matched her very well."Thank you, Grandma," he said to Sylvie on Joanne's behalf.Seeing how enamored her grandson and granddaughter-in-

"Then, can you change it into a regular aluminum bracelet?" Joanne scratched her head and added, "That should be fine; they're not easily scratched."Edwin really wanted to pry open her head to see what was inside. The value of an aluminum bracelet was far less than that of a silver bracelet!'Good god, she's so daft. Can't she be a bit more vainglorious?'Edwin raised his hand and flicked her forehead. "For my sake, keep it. If it frays, the cost will be deducted from your salary. You shouldn't have any problem paying that with our long-term contract.""What?!" Joanne covered her forehead, feeling a little pain, and grinned. "Hehe. Your grandmother gave it to me as a gift, so it's mine now. I can do whatever I want! Why should I pay for it again?""So you're not hopelessly stupid after all.""I'm not, but you are!" Joanne became a little annoyed."I'm sorry, but judging from our appearance, you look more like an airhead than I am," replied Edwin calmly."Urgh!"...In the bl

Before Catelyn could finish her sentence, someone behind her bumped her arm that was holding a wine glass. Everyone watched as the red wine in the glass spilled onto the oil painting.The audience was silent for two seconds.Tracy gasped, pulled the oil painting back swiftly, and hurriedly took a tissue paper to wipe the red wine stain. Unfortunately, it was too late.The red wine seeped into the canvas, and the paint got wet, lost its original artistic conception, and became a waste product.Seeing that the painting could not be repaired, Tracy bit her lip in grief, looked at Catelyn, and said, "Miss Atherton, I know my father has offended you, but this painting had cost me tens of millions. I bid for it at the Swiss auction house for Grandma! I know you hate me, but you can't just ruin my gift like that."Sammy pulled off the hem of Tracy's clothes fearfully. "Tracy, how can you talk to Miss Atherton like that?! Hurry up and apologize!""I didn't do anything wrong. I won't apol

Catelyn did not care about being the object of ridicule, but when they joked about her father, she could not hold back her temper.Her expression suddenly changed from calm to aggressive, and she said in a strong voice, "Tens of millions of dollars for a fake oil painting as a gift for Grandma? Is this a joke? I destroyed it so it won't embarrass her when you all found out it was fake! Shouldn't I be thanked?""A fake oil painting?" Tracy's heart sank when she heard that.Truth be told, she did not buy this painting at a Swiss auction house but at an underground trading house outside the auction house instead. The seller swore that it was an authentic artwork and gave her a receipt that looked indifferent from one from a regular auction house.Afterward, she rushed back to America to take care of Eugene, so she did not have time to verify that painting.'But how could Catelyn know at a glance that it was a fake? She must be bluffing.' The lady who defended Tracy sneered again and

Cedrick's sharp eyes swept across everyone present, and with just one glance, he made everyone shut their mouths up.Tracy looked at Cedrick, trembling, and was shocked. "So, Master Cedrick, to protect Miss Atherton, are you slandering me by saying I've gifted a fake painting to Grandma?""Tracy, let's go," Sammy stepped forward to support Tracy and choked up, "The painting has been ruined, and we can't question what the superior, high above Master Cedrick said. Whatever he said will be the truth no matter what. But I believe that you will never deliberately fool Granny Atherton!"If it were not for Sammy's sincere expression, Catelyn would have thought that she was acting to ridicule her.Catelyn turned her head and instructed Kelly, "Aunt Kelly, please send someone to invite Mister Abma, the president of Sapphire's Oil Painter, to come over. He has a lot of research on Morison's works, so he can give my aunt and Tracy a satisfactory answer.""Really? That's great!" Sammy immedia

Cedrick and Mister Abma met each other in the circle of collectors before. He explained in a low voice, "Mister Abma, I guess today is your lucky day then. This painting was bought by my wife's cousin as a gift for Granny Atherton. It was said to be worth tens of millions of dollars.""Thousands of millions of dollars?!" Mister Abma nodded excitedly. "Morison's famous paintings are indeed worth the price. Well, I guess, as you said, it's my lucky day!"While waiting for Mister Abma to arrive just now, Tracy was trying to find a way to wipe off the red wine stain from the oil painting.She tried every means but still could not completely get rid of it, so she had no choice but handed it over to Mister Abma, the ruined painting.Mister Abma held the painting carefully and placed put it on a clean table. He gently stroked the surface of the painting, lowered his head to smell the fragrance of it, took down his glasses, and held the magnifier to scan through the oil painting.The more

Tracy's complexion instantly turned pale."Miss Winx, it seems that I've had too high hopes for you. You are far worse than Ezekiel when it comes to educating your daughter." Sylvie sighed regretfully, her disappointment undisguised.Ezekiel also came to attend Sylvie's birthday party that day. He was now the son-in-law of Sylvie. Everyone was treating him nicely, buttering him up. Even the file of the suspected murder case four years ago that he was suspected of was disposed of by Cedrick outside the law…Although it was just a few words of regret, it made Tracy feel more uncomfortable than giving her a few slaps, and she stammered to explain, "Grandma, this is... I was careless… I didn't expect it to be a fake painting..."Ezekiel, who was called out by Granny Atherton, walked out of the crowd and suggested, "Didn't Tracy have the receipt with her? She can contact a lawyer to hold the auction house accountable and recover some of the losses."Tracy's face paled even more."Trac

Soon, it was the Atherton family's close relatives' turn to present their gifts.There were all kinds of gifts, all of which were exquisite, overwhelming, and invaluable, including antique vases, porcelain, expensive jewelry, some high-end health supplements, and more.When it was Edwin's and Joanne's turn, Edwin gave Sylvie a lovely red coral tree, which was listed as one of the seven treasures, representing wealth and auspiciousness, and is priced by the gram in the market.It was undoubtedly the most astonishing gift throughout the banquet. Everyone could not help but praise Master Edwin for his generosity.Yet Joanne curled her lips. Her hand-woven plush scarf was in her purse. She really wanted to give it to Sylvie, so she could keep herself warm with it in winter, but Edwin disliked her shabby gift.However, little did she know Edwin's intention was to prevent her from being ridiculed. She would only be looked down upon by guests if she was given something cheap.After Edwi

There were not many photos of Sylvie alone because most of them captured Sylvie with other Atherton family members together. Those photos included one in which she and Catelyn warmly stared at each other with a smile on both faces, one in which she and Edwin played chess together, and one in which she and Harry took a stroll in the garden…Hundreds of photos were arranged clearly and orderly by Catelyn and projected on the big screen.Sylvie was deeply moved, and tears filled her eyes.The narration of the video was the voice of Catelyn. "Grandma, you are the most respected elder in my heart. It is my greatest honor to be your granddaughter. I believe that no matter what you did, you did it for my good. Now it's time for me, Ceddy, and the children to spend time with you. On your first birthday after our reunion, I thought about giving you very precious gifts like my cousin, but those gifts were dead, and I always felt that something was missing. Then, one day, I finally realized wh
