Since Jacob and Lilian appeared in the hall at the same time, many people gathered around, including
Lilian’s college classmates, two of whom were Anna’s roommates when she was in . college.
Lilian held Jacob’s arm on purpose and said to Anna with a fake smile, “Jacob told me that you
wouldn’t want to come to our engagement party and said that there was no need to invite you. But I
didn’t think so. I knew you would come to our engagement party as long as I invited you. After all, we
are not only college classmates but also good friends.”
Anna looked at her with the same fake smile and said, “Congratulations.”
With a frown, Jacob tried to pull his arms out of Lilian’s hand and said, “Well, we still need to entertain
other guests. Let’s go.”
“What’s the rush? I still want to talk with Anna.” Lilian said as she pulled Jacob’s arm again to stop him.
Then she raised her voice and said, “Anna, why didn’t your boyfriend come here with you?”
“Anna has a boyfriend?” A lady behind Lilian asked and walked out of the crowd arrogantly. She was
wearing Channel haute couture and her hair was well arranged. And the diamond necklace that she
wore was shining and dazzling.
Her dressing style was so exaggerated as if she was afraid that others wouldn’t know that she was rich
if she didn’t dress up like this.
The lady was no other than Allie.
Anna was surprised when she saw Allie. But then she remembered that the Palmer family and the
Gabriel family had been in a good relationship and realized that Allie might come to the engagement
party on behalf of their father.
“Allie, you don’t know that?” Lilian deliberately asked with a surprised look. “You are Anna’s sister.
Don’t you know that she has a boyfriend? Didn’t she tell you about it?”
With a glass of wine in her hand, Allie said with a contemptuous look, “My sister doesn’t live with us
and rarely comes back home. I don’t even have a chance to talk to her. How is it possible that she tells
me about it?”
“If she dates an average person, it doesn’t matter that she doesn’t tell you about it. But the one that
Anna is dating is Wayne, the president of the Carousel Group. How could she hide it from you?” Lilian
said in an exaggerated tone and then observed the reaction of the other people secretly
As soon as she finished her words, the crowd was in an uproar.
Everyone present knew that Wayne, the president of the Carousel Group, was rich and powerful. It was
said that many women wanted to seduce him but no one could get close to him. Therefore, when they
heard that Anna was Wayne’s girlfriend, they all looked at Anna with doubt in their eyes.
Being stared at by others, Anna felt embarrassed and clenched her handbag subconsciously
The last time she met Lilian and Jacob, she lied to them on the spur of the moment and said Wayne
was her boyfriend. Thanks to Wayne’s cooperation at that time, she didn’t lose face in . front of them
Anna didn’t expect that Lilian would mention it in such a situation.
Sure enough, Allie sneered when hearing Lilian’s words and said to Anna, “Oh, it’s the funniest joke
that I’ve heard recently. Anna, who do you think you are? You didn’t even finish college. Do you want
Wayne to be your backer? Don’t flatter yourself! Even if you are willing to be the stepmother of his son,
he won’t marry you. Besides, I’ve heard that Wayne and Ada are going to get married.”
After she said that, the others began to gossip about the relationship among Anna, Ada, and Wayne.
Some said that Wayne’s son was born by Ada, and some said that Anna was so vain and
greedy that she even wanted to seduce Wayne.
“I don’t make a fool of yourself here. As your sister, I have to remind you that if our father knows that
you are so shameless to deceive others by pretending to be Wayne’s girlfriend, he will be very angry.”
Allie said sharply with her voice heavy with sarcasm. It could be seen that she didn’t treat Anna as a
sister at all.
The guests only knew Allie was the daughter of the Gabriel family and few of them had seen Anna
before. Therefore, they all thought that Anna was the illegitimate daughter of the Old Mr. Wright and no
one spoke for her.
“I haven’t heard that Miss. Gabriel has a sister.” “Is she really Allie’s younger sister?”
“Who knows? The Gabriel family is rich and powerful. It’s not strange that Old Mr. Wright has
illegitimate children.”
“..”
Anna didn’t care what others thought of her. But when the others misunderstood that she was an
illegitimate daughter because Allie distorted the fact, she was irritated. Besides, Allie’s words made her
think of her sad past.
The next moment, she clenched her fists and said coldly, “Allie, you have no right to say such words to
me. Who do you think you are?”
“I’m the elder daughter of the Gabriel family and your sister. You did the wrong thing and disgraced our
family so I certainly have the right to scold you,” Allie said.
Hearing this, Anna sneered, “Only the child born by our father’s lawfully wedded wife can be called the
eldest daughter of our family,” she said with a meaningful look.
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Allie’s face turned livid with rage and she immediately raised her hand to slap
Anna.
“Whether she is talking nonsense, you shouldn’t hit her.” Suddenly, Wayne’s low and deep voice came
from beside her.
As Wayne spoke, he pulled Anna into his arms and then grabbed Allie’s arm before she could slap
Anna.
“Mr. Wright?” “What is he doing here?” The crowd was in an uproar again and the hall became noisier.
Surprised, Anna raised her head and saw Wayne’s side face. At this moment, he was staring at Allie
coldly.
“Wayne?” Lilian and Allie spoke at the same time and their faces turned pale.
Back then, When Lilian said that Anna was dating Wayne, Allie didn’t believe it at all because she knew
that Wayne was going to marry Ada. Therefore, Lilian and Allie believed that Anna had lied so they had
planned to join hands to humiliate Anna and expose her lie in front of everyone at the party.
However, when they saw Wayne come and speak for Anna, they were dumbfounded.
“Are you Mr. Wright from the Carousel Group?” Allie felt embarrassed and couldn’t help asking Wayne
for confirmation..
Wayne said coldly, “Do you need me to show you my ID card?” “No, no, no, I’m not doubting you,” Allie
said immediately and shook her head.
“I don’t care whether you doubt me or not. I just want to know why you wanted to hit my fiancee in front
of so many people just now. You’d better give me an explanation.”
“Fiancee?” Allie’s face froze and stared at Anna while asking in disbelief, “How could it be possible?
She… she is your fiancee?”
Anna was also stunned. She didn’t expect that Wayne would say such words in front of so many
people.
“Why is it impossible?” Wayne said calmly and put his arm around Anna’s shoulder. “Do you have any
problem with it?”
Pursing her lips, Allie still didn’t believe what Wayne had said. Then she asked, “Then why didn’t Anna
explain your relationship to us when I misunderstood her just now?”
At this moment, Anna came to herself from the shock and immediately said, “You kept talking just now
and I didn’t have a chance to speak at all. You and Lilian embarrassed me in front of so many people
on purpose. Even if I explained it to you, you wouldn’t believe me.”
“No, I didn’t mean to do that. It’s not me, “Lilian said in a hurry, indicating that it was Allie who plotted
everything. She was afraid that Wayne would vent his anger on her.
Hearing that, Allie glared at Lilian angrily.
Since Wayne was here, Anna was emboldened and said, “As you can see, Wayne is indeed not my
boyfriend. He’s my fiance. What else do you want to say about it? I have never done anything to offend
the two of you but you two slandered me in front of so many people. You’ve gone too far. Lilian, no
wonder you invited me to the party. It turns out that you and Allie have planned to embarrass me in
front of everyone. One of you isiny best friend, and the other is my sister. I’m so unlucky to have you
two in my life.”
