Chapter 24 Attending the Dinner Party

With the help of Luke, Claire quickly changed into a long strapless dress.

Without too much makeup, her hair was rolled up and coiled behind her head, making her look clean
and elegant. In order to match the long dress, Claire had no choice but to walk out in high heels.
Fortunately, the heels were not very high, so Claire could easily do it.

Compared with her pale face before, Claire looked much ruddy. She didn't stop until she walked up to
Henry.

Claire's face was full of expectation. She lowered her body a little and said softly, "Henry, do you think
I'm so beautiful?"

It was the first time that she had seen herself wearing such beautiful clothes. When she stood in front
of the mirror just now, Claire almost couldn't recognize her. People relied on clothes, Buddha relying on
gold. In addition, she was a beautiful woman. The white dress set off her as an otherworldly fairy, who
could only be seen from a distance and could not be touched.

The moment Henry raised his head, he was immediately amazed by her beauty. It was true that she
was beautiful, but at the moment when Henry was in a daze, Luke suddenly came up to him with a
money deduction machine and stepped in. "Can my design not be beautiful? Mr. Henry, are you going
to pay with card or cash today?"

It was impossible for Henry to bring so much cash with him, so he had everything ready except for
Henry's words.

Looking at the mischievous expression on Luke's face, Henry seemed to have been accustomed to it.
He took out a gilded card from his card bag, on which there were two letters of SC. It must have some
special meaning.



Luke's eyes lit up when he saw that Henry took out the gold card without hesitation. He snatched it
from him with a cunning smile, fearing that Henry would go back on his word, and said, "Then I won't
be so polite. This month, I can finally surpass my performance. Next time, I'll give you a twenty percent
off discount! Maybe I will be promoted to the third floor by then! "

SC was a highly competitive national clothing chain. Each floor represented a certain level. Of course,
the employees on each floor were immeasurable. This group of people were scattered in different
cities, and on the last day of each month, they would send a representative to gather in the office on
the tenth floor of the Head office in A City.

And the performance of the employees below the tenth floor was compared with each other. If they
couldn't surpass others, they would naturally fall to the last floor, and their salary would naturally be
reduced. No one was willing to go to the last floor, which was also the most important reason why the
shop assistants on the last floor would do anything to get the money.

Seeing the ingratiating expression on Luke's face when he handed the card back with a cunning look,
Henry couldn't help but roll his eyes. He took the initiative to hold the wrist of Claire, and then strode
forward. "Okay, let's go. It's too late."

Claire's face turned red again. She kicked and shouted, "Henry... Wait a minute. I'm wearing high
heels. Slow down! Your legs are longer than mine. Wait for me! "

Hearing Claire's shouting, Henry's face was full of helplessness. He took the initiative to turn around,
and held Claire directly into her arms. He didn't have much time to wait now. If he was late, he would
be surrounded by gossip.

Besides, Aaron just called and said that James had gone to the scene first. As his grandson, how could
he not go to take care of his grandfather as soon as possible? James can make it when he's sick. How
could he, a young man, be late?



An hour later, Henry changed his clothes and walked out of the resting room with Claire. During this
period, Claire had eaten something to fill her stomach secretly. Of course, it was the acquiescence of
Henry, and the food was placed on the table safe and sound after a thorough examination.

Turning her head, Claire lowered her voice and said, "Henry. There are so many people today. Are they
all here for this party? "

Up to now, Claire still didn't understand why this party was held. But if she knew, he believed that Claire
wouldn't smile so brightly. It was precisely because of this dinner party that she was exposed to the
public, causing a killing intent!

It was not easy to be Mrs. Gu. With Claire's current state, it was absolutely impossible for her to live a
peaceful life. In this world, many women's dream was to be the wife of Henry. As long as it was a
woman, basically they would be jealous of Claire!

As the music was playing, James soon stood on the stage. He coughed and then smiled, "I'm not
feeling well this morning. Thank you for your greetings, but my body can hold on for a few more years!
Today, I invite all of you here to congratulate my grandson, Henry, the chairman of OT Group, on the
successful acceptance of the successful implementation of an international program with B City, and to
announce that my grandson has been married a few days ago. I hope you can give me more blessings.
Of course, if you want to play tricks, just take it back! I like my granddaughter in law very much! "

It was true that the last sentence of James was from the bottom of his heart. He could feel the
innocence and kindness of Claire, especially when Aaron told him that Claire was innocent from the
beginning, James's feeling of guilt became stronger. Moreover, if it weren't for Claire's timely help at
that time, he might not be able to hold on.

It was rare to see such a kind granddaughter in law! People could be poor, but they couldn't be without
a kind heart. He had lived in a rich family for many years and had long forgotten what he was like in the



past. It was because of the appearance of Claire that he recalled his past. It was a great fortune for the
Gu Family to have such a rare woman.

James's words were like a time bomb, exploding in the crowd. The marriage of Henry was a big deal!
However, no one had dug it out. The rumor that Henry and Molly were going to cancel the engagement
had been confirmed at this moment.

At the corner, Molly felt as if her face had been slapped several times. James knew that Mu Family
would also come to the dinner party, but he said it in front of so many people. He did it on purpose to
embarrass her! Although sometimes she was a little vicious, she was still a woman and was afraid of
losing face.

Many people subconsciously turned their eyes to Molly. There was a trace of sympathy, banter and
ridicule on their eyes, which made Molly unbearable. She was a superior person. How could she allow
others to look at her like this?

With a whoosh, Molly stood up angrily and strode over. When she was about to lose her temper, Gerry
reached out his hand to stop her.

Here was the place of the Gu Family, and their relationship had already become subtle. If he didn't take
charge of Molly, she would be angry and talk nonsense. By then, the two families would really become
enemies. A little neglect may breed great mischief!

There was a look of grievance on Molly's face. She turned her head, tugged at Gerry's sleeve and said
coquettishly, "Dad, look at Grandpa James. He said something unpleasant. I know it must be that
shameless woman, Claire, who said something to him. Otherwise, Grandpa James used to love me
very much. Ouch, Dad, do you want your precious daughter to endure the cowardice of Claire? "



Hearing her daughter's pitiful words, Gerry's heart softened again. He sighed slightly, and then coaxed,
"Don't worry, Molly. You're my baby. I won't let anyone bully you! Don't worry. I will get it back for you in
person. But it's not the right time. Do you understand? Just give me some more time. "

Hearing the response of Gerry, Molly smiled with satisfaction. She stared at Claire for a while and then
reluctantly looked away. She clenched her fists tightly and sneered. Then she muttered to herself,
"Claire, just wait and see. You'd better pray that Henry won't kick you away in the short term, or I'll
make you suffer! If I can't hurt you, I can hurt your family! Humph! "

After the crowd calmed down a little, James continued, "Today's dinner party, we OT Group will also
draw out lucky guests and give them a pair of small earrings worth two hundred thousand. They are
made of pure gold and hope you to have a good time. As for the number plate, you can draw it from the
basket in order. Each of you can only take one number. Once you are found to get more than one, it will
be invalid. Thank you for your cooperation and wish you a happy night! "
