Robin's expression shifted slightly at Terence's offer. "I don't think that's a good idea," she pointed out with a sheepish laugh. After all, she was not invited in the first place.Terence ruffled Robin's hair and asked gently, "Why not? You know most of the invited guests. Jean and Tyler will likely show up too."The Harpers are the ones throwing the party, and they've worked with Larson Group before. Tyler told me you were the project planner."Robin nodded. "Yeah, they had a few collaborations with Larson Group."Terence pulled Robin up from her seat. Holding her hand, he said evenly, "You've only just joined Weiss Group, and with your current role, you're expected to show up at a few social events. Come on, we'll go together."He did not let go of her hand as he said this and led her out of the office.Robin looked down at their clasped hands. She made a move to draw hers back, worried that the other employees might talk if they saw her and Terence like this.However, T

Bethany, Donovan Harper's wife, showed up at that moment and reached for Robin's hand. She greeted her warmly, "Ms. Sage, it's been a while. You've only gotten prettier since the last time I saw you."　　Bethany had met Robin before, but she had not been quite as enthusiastic toward Robin as she was being now.As far as the women in the upper crust were concerned, capable young ladies with average backgrounds such as Robin had a tendency to be ambitious. Women like her would do anything to climb the corporate ladder.As such, despite being much older, Bethany had been wary of Robin during the Harpers' previous collaboration with Larson Group.Presently, Robin smiled. She was admittedly a little taken aback by Bethany's enthusiasm. However, she did not show it.　　The business circle in Henkel was small enough that Robin and Bethany would run into each other frequently. With that in mind, Robin matched the older lady's enthusiasm.Robin had attended plenty of social events like this

Robin spoke calmly while looking at Kathy, as if she wasn't worried about offending Kathy in the slightest.Kathy's expression immediately darkened upon hearing that. Her hands were clenched tightly together. If it weren't for the inappropriate setting, Kathy would've raised her hand against Robin to teach her a lesson already.Bethany stood to the side and felt somewhat embarrassed about the situation that was unfolding. She then said to Kathy, "Our friends are over there. Why bother arguing with the youngsters? Come on, I'll bring you over there to meet them."Bethany intended to give Kathy a way out of the situation.After all, Robin didn't seem to be an easy person to deal with.Bethany had initially thought that Robin had a weak personality, but she hadn't expected Robin to bring up something embarrassing about Kathy in such a setting. Robin had hit Kathy's weak spot right away.Naturally, Kathy couldn't say anything to refute that.Bethany took Kathy's hand and started to

"Aunt Kathy, do you need something?" Monica asked, trying to hold back the displeasure in her tone.Upon hearing Monica's voice, Kathy immediately replied, "Hurry over to the Harper residence now. They're hosting a banquet. Terence and Robin are here as well. Make sure to dress up nicely. I'll be waiting for you here."Monica's expression revealed a hint of hesitation upon hearing that.When she heard that Terence was at the Harper residence, Monica's heart filled with excitement.However, she thought about how she hadn't received an invitation to the banquet from the Harpers. If she were to show up unannounced, it would seem very impolite. As such, Monica felt conflicted."Aunt Kathy, won't it be inappropriate? I didn't get an invite from the Harpers," Monica said softly, even though she really wanted to go.On the other end of the line, Kathy merely chuckled. "I've already talked to Mrs. Harper about it. She said that it's been ages since she's seen you, so she wants you to c

Monica sighed softly and withdrew her gaze from Terence. With a faint smile on her face, she said, "You've just officially returned to the Weiss family, after all. It's only natural for Terence to take you out to social events."Once you familiarize yourself with these occasions, you'll start to enjoy them."The words Monica spoke held deep implications.No one would be able to discern the underlying meaning if they did not put more thought into it.Everyone assumed that Monica and Robin were on good terms with each other, so no one thought anything of what was said.After all, Robin was officially recognized as the young lady of the Weiss family.Robin regarded Monica with a composed smile on her face and said, "You're right, Ms. Blake. Whenever such occasions arise, I'll be sure to get Terence to take me in the future."Monica gritted her teeth inwardly, but she maintained a smile on her face.At this moment, Selena cast her gaze toward Terence. She looked somewhat puzzled as
