Chapter 6

But she was someone who liked to face difficulties and challenges; she wanted to come here to train herself, of course, she would not be the kind of person who would cry or call for reinforcements after only being here for a few days.

After hearing what Caitlyn had just said, she laughed: "Let them say what they want to say."

After all, in the three years she had been at the Ethelred house, she had heard all the harshest words.

Caitlyn nodded, then talked about Philomena's actions: "... That piece of land, the Arnold family has already decided to buy it, now Philomena wants to give it to you, he wants to show off to you."

She frowned slightly: "Is it Sherwin Arnold?"

Caitlyn replied: "It's him."

She glanced at Caitlyn, smiling meaningfully: "In the end, who is threatening whom, who is showing off to whom, in the end, no one knows."

Philomena indirectly sent a threat to her, and her opponent was Bucky's subordinate, Sherwin Arnold.

How interesting.

Alina was originally someone who never gave up, but who that piece of land would eventually belong to was still uncertain.

Caitlyn was a little surprised and quickly replied: "Miss Alina, have you thought of a plan?"

She pursed her lips slightly, smiled, but said nothing.

Caitlyn understood what she meant, and didn't ask any more questions, but took out a letter and handed it to her: "Miss Alina, this is the invitation to the Devlin Group's company anniversary celebration."

She took the invitation, looked at the time of the event, which was Friday night.

"Yes."

From her attitude, Caitlyn guessed that she would attend that ceremony.

Ingrid was originally someone who only liked to watch the excitement, not interested in big things, Devlin was the property of the Devlin family, on the anniversary of the group's founding, a member of the Ethelred family would come, so she chose a high-end dress bought from Paris, on Friday afternoon Ingrid even dragged her to the beauty salon, let them take care of her skin for two hours, then spent another two hours on makeup.

When the two of them arrived at the hotel door, it was already 7:30 pm, and the party had been going on for 30 minutes.

Tonight, all the young ladies of the city are present; they are all the people who have laughed at her. Tonight, she will let those people know what it means to laugh at others today, and be laughed at by others tomorrow.

Coincidentally, as soon as she got out of the car, she met Guinevere and Eloise.

One was her ex-mother-in-law, the other was her ex-sister-in-law.

Under the gorgeous makeup, Guinevere and Eloise did not recognize her at first glance.

Looking at her, Guinevere smiled and praised: "Whose young lady is this? She grew up so beautiful, this is the first time I have seen such a beautiful girl."

Eloise also felt that she was beautiful: "Mother, I also admit that this elder sister is really beautiful. When we go inside, I must find a way to contact her to introduce her to my brother, that way you won't have to worry about not having a daughter-in-law anymore."

Alina and Ingrid walked forward, handing the invitation to the inspector, hearing what Guinevere and Eloise said, she and Ingrid looked at each other, she frowned slightly, but could not turn back to look.

She wanted to wait and see, and Eloise would ask her how to contact her in the future.

In this Y City, the status of the Devlin family was second only to the Ethelred family. Today was the anniversary of the founding of the corporation; it could be said that everyone with status in this city was attending.

As soon as she entered the hall, she met countless “acquaintances”; those people were all extremely surprised when they saw her.

Of course, they were surprised; they originally thought that she, a nobody named Alina, after leaving the Ethelred family, there was even less, but now, a nobody like her appeared at this party, making everyone here feel extremely surprised.

Ingrid stood beside her, looking at the eyes of the people here, she couldn't help but exclaim: "Haven't they seen a beauty before? Why are they staring at you like that?"

She raised her eyebrows, took two glasses of fruit juice from the waiter who had just passed by, handed one to Ingrid, lowered her head, took a sip of the juice, and smiled: "Maybe so."

Ingrid tilted her head to glance at her, although she was indeed a very narcissistic person, her current expression did not completely show her usual narcissism.

Ingrid snorted: "Isn't it rare? It's hard to believe."

She smiled, and did not continue Ingrid's words.

Bucky and Jocelyn walked in, immediately attracting the attention of everyone in the hall.

She stood outside the crowd, indifferently watching Bucky walk in step by step, feeling such peace in her heart for the first time.

Ingrid stood beside her and snorted: "Alina, don't say anything, I have to admit that that male dog Bucky is very attractive, no wonder the young girls of this city all want to marry him."

Hearing this, Alina glanced at Ingrid: "Do I look like a bad person?"

She couldn't help but say, at first, she was also moved by him, Bucky's handsome face had taken up 70% of her charm.

"That's right."

Bucky walked through the crowd, immediately recognizing the person standing next to Ingrid as Alina.

She had completely changed her gentle appearance from before; tonight she was dressed gorgeously and brightly, the red dress on her body made everyone unable to help but pay attention.

She was bowing her head to talk to her friend standing next to her, not knowing what she was saying, but smiling so calmly.

As if she felt his gaze, she raised her head to look back.

He withdrew his gaze, looking towards Quetzal.

Not long after Eloise entered the hall, Guinevere let her go find her close friends.

As soon as Eloise saw her friends, Matilda pulled her back: "Eloise, come here quickly, see if that's your ex-sister-in-law?"

Eloise hated her to death. Hearing Matilda say that, she immediately became unhappy: "What sister-in-law. How can that toad Alina be considered my sister-in-law?"

Zelda laughed loudly, pulling Eloise's hand and pointing at Alina: "Look, that girl in the red dress looks like Alina."

Eloise curled her lips, looking in the direction Zelda was pointing, discovering that the person Zelda was talking about was the beautiful girl she and Guinevere had met outside the hotel gate. She couldn't help but laugh: "Where is the similarity, how could it be Alina..."

"So beautiful." The two words "beautiful" seemed to be stuck in Eloise's mouth, her expression became stiff: "Why is Alina here?"

What qualifications did she have to come here?
