Chapter 423


    Everett blinked his eyes innocently.


    There was a sense of panic in his voice after being reprimanded by his mother.


    "Oh, I must have misunderstood Nachelle Holder''s statement," he said.


    Damien and Miley''s expressions softened.


    Everyone else looked at Damien''s family thoughtfully.


    They did not expect them to be invited to Nachelle Holder''s family banquet because the Holder family


    was one of the noble families in San Joto.


    Simr to the Johnston family, the Holder family was the oldest member of the high society in


    Hustuaburg.


    Mr.Riddle Sr.ignored whether Chloe was kicked out o f the cast or not.


    Instead, he squinted his eyes at his eldest son, who did not stop his wife from saying what seemed like


    an exnation but was an attempt a t showing off.


    "Everyone shut up and eat," he said coldly.


    All of them quieted down in an instant.


    Snow and Raine returned to their seats unwillingly when they met their grandfather''s gaze.


    The atmosphere became strange.


    There was only the sound of tableware and dishes colliding because everyone was in their own


    thoughts as they ate.


    Chloe then sent a message to Snow and Raine, "Has she handed over that diamond?"


    "No, not only did she not admit she took it, she even brought her brothers to intimidate us.Even


    Preston''s on her side," Snow replied.


    "What do you think we should do, Chloe?" Raine asked.


    Chloe looked up from her phone and nced at Nicole with an unpredictable cold gaze.


    "Don''t listen to their nonsense.Maybe her brothers are her aplices!


    "Since Preston doesn''t care about you two, you two shouldn''t care about him either.Just act like he''s no


    longer your brother."


    After sending that message, Chloe nced suspiciously at Everett, who was eating his meal.


    ‘What did he mean just now? Why did he want to embarrass me? If we didn''t get the invitation to


    Nachelle Holder''s family banquet, I would have to face everyone''s judgment! At that moment, Everett


    seemed to have noticed Chloe''s gaze.


    He looked up and shot a shy smile at her.


    "What''s wrong, Chloe?"


    She looked at his innocent smile and thought, ''Maybe he just blurted out what he knew"


    She knew that her brother was a little dense, so she let go of her suspicions.


    ''He is not a threat.


    "Nothing.Just eat your meal," she said in disdain.


    Everett did not notice her harsh tone.

    He nodded and asked considerately, "Aren''t you gonna eat, Chloe?"


    She continued to send messages to Snow and Raine.


    "Do you think I''m you? I can''t just eat the whole day away! I want to be an A-list celebrity.I have to


    watch my diet," she said in a holier-than-thou tone.
