Be knew that it was a risk trying to make Justin fall in love with her. She had already shed tears for


    Justin, and it was time for her to let go.

    Time flew by.


    In the blink of an eye, it was Old Master Nigel’s birthday.


    Everyone in the Salvador family viewed this as the most important event because it was Nigel’s 80th


    birthday. Gregory spent hundreds of millions of dors to buy arge European- style mansion as a


    birthday gift for his father. That was where the banquet would be held.


    The guests who attended Nigel’s birthday banquet were all prominent figures in Savrow’s upper ss.


    Most of them were tycoons, and some of them were Nigel’s old friends from the Calligraphy and


    Painting Association, all of whom were famous artists in the country.


    For this banquet, Rosalind and Bethany started choosing their dresses and doing their beauty regimen


    a week in advance.

    The way they tried to outshine other women felt less like Nigel’s birthday celebration and more like their


    own wedding.


    Unfortunately, they never expected the venue to be in the new mansion, so their ballroom gowns


    seemed too extravagant for the asion.


    “Bethany, what are you giving Grandpa Nigel?” Rosalind asked curiously.


    “I


    gave Grandpa an antique vase. He likes antique porcin, so he’ll definitely like the gift that


    I prepared!” Bethany fiddled with her newly purchased pink diamond ring with a proud look on her face.


    “Oh, from which century?”


    “From thete 19th century.”


    “Oh, is it appropriate to give Grandpa an antique from such a recent year?”


    Rosalind pretended to be innocent and blinked her carefully drawn eyes. “Justin bought a pair of


    porcin teacups from the 18th century at a charity auction that cost $40 million. He said he wanted to


    give it to Grandpa as a gift, so wouldn’t his gift outshine yours?”


    Seeing that she was being slighted, Bethany red at Rosalind angrily. “Justin is the president of


    Salvador Corporation, so naturally, his gift must be more expensive than ours since he represents the


    whole family.”


    “Oh, right. My husband is amazing!” Rosalind sighed with pride.


    “Besides, I’m Grandpa’s favorite granddaughter, so he will like whatever I give him.”


    Bethany looked at her coldly. “Rose, what gift are you nning to give Grandpa?”


    “I bought a Renaissance treasure for $10 million at an auction. You’ll find out in a moment.” Rosalind


    smiled mysteriously.


    Bethany thought, “Ten million?! How did this bitch still have so much money?! Didn’t Mom


    say that her family was going bankrupt?’


    Sure enough, there were benefits to being Justin’s woman. Rosalind had not even married Justin yet,


    but she was already spending his moneyvishly.


    The more Bethany thought about it, the more upset she became. Thus, she wanted to stir the pot. She


    pursed her lips and said, “Rose, I’m really worried about you today. Grandpa likes my ex-sister-inw


    so much, so he’ll definitely invite her. What will you do if shees? Won’t it be embarrassing for you


    two to meet like this?”


    “Why would it be embarrassing? I’m Justin’s fiancée. She’s the one who should be embarrassed!”


    Rosalind’s eyes were slightly red because she was a little anxious.


    “But Anna and Justin have yet to finalize the divorce. Although it will only be a matter of time, her status


    seems more legitimate than yours today.”


    Bethany snickered in her heart, feeling relieved when she saw Rosalind’s irritable look. “If Grandpa


    introduces her as his granddaughter-inw, what will that make you, Rose?”


    Rosalind’s face turned pale. Her heart was filled with resentment.


    “Don’t worry, Rose.’


    Bethany shrugged her shoulders and turned around to see Shannon walking toward them with a ss


    of red wine in hand.


    “Aunt Shannon!” Rosalind hurriedly took Shannon’s arm and leaned on her shoulder.


    Bethany never cared about this before, but today she felt annoyed seeing Rosalind being so close to


    her mother.


    Bethany thought, ‘She’s my mother, not yours! You’re so shameless to steal my mother!’


    Shannon patted Rosalind’s arm. Her eyes were cold as she said, “Rose, don’t be afraid. Although your


    mother isn’t here today, I’ll support you. Anna won’t be able to cause any trouble tonight!”
