Chapter 932
Elizabeth’s family shindig was a private dinner party, with most of the invites being thedies from
the high and mighty.
Among these blue bloods, there were many skeletons in the closet. The real rich girls, with all their
wealth and power, often came off as snobbish and rude. As for their reputation as refined and
intelligent, most people justughed it off.
Wendy was always super careful when handling stuff. She had a strict door policy, keeping all the
press at bay.
Even though it was a private bash that wasn’t trying to keep a low profile, it was inevitable that
these blue–blooded get–togethers would always be a riot. So, outside the venue tonight, the
parking lot was filled with world–ss wheels. The gents anddies stepping out of the vehicles
were all decked out, sharp suits and swishing skirts.
Inside the banquet hall, it was a clinking mess of sses.
Wendy, dressed in the gown Elizabeth bought for her yesterday, stood at the entrance with a big
grin, graciously weing the guests.
Thest wee party Wendy hosted didn’t go so well, so seeing Wendy again was a treat for a
few of thedies, who couldn’t stop gabbing around her. “Wendy, long time no see. You’re getting
prettier by the day.”
“Grace has really hit the jackpot. She can birth and raise kids. Look at how great Wendy’s turned
out.”
“Yeah, and she’s going to be the future head of the Alonso family. We were all taken aback. It’s
unheard of for a woman to take control of the family.”
“The Alonso family has so many businesses. Just thinking about it scares the bejeezus out of me.
I’m afraid I’d mess things up. But Wendy seems totally chill.” Wendy was a bit embarrassed by all
the praises, “I’m just young and fearless, ignorant of the world. What the future holds, who can tell.”
“No worries. You won’t have to worry too much in the future. You and Damon grew up together,
right? If there’s any problem, he can handle it.” There were people present who had also attended
the Harper family’s dinner party, and a lot of them knew about Damon’s fiancee.
Wendy’s face stiffened a bit, and she said awkwardly, “Damon and I are just friends who grew up
together.”
A few cluelessdiesughed.
“Look, she’s blushing. Who doesn’t know that Damon’s always had a soft spot for you. Everyone
says you’ll be his wife in the future!”
“Yeah Presley likes you too, right? Look at you now, you’re arranging Mrs. Harper’s family gathering
all by yourself. Who else has that kind of clout?” Yeah, whether it’s status, appearance, or talent,
which woman can match Wendy now?”
Everyone in the room nodded in agreement when they heard this.
The Alonso family was one of the major families. In terms of status, there were hardly a few who
could hold a candle to the Alonso family.
Even though the words just now sounded like ttery, they were all true.
Wendy gave a slight smile, her face a mix of shy and humble, “Don’t say that. There’s always
someone better.”
A few people said it was impossible, “Forget it. If there were people better than you, they should
have shown up by now, not wait till now.” “Huh? Who’s that?”
“Ah, her…”
“She has such a good temperament, and she’s pretty.”
There was a stir around, a few people looked in the direction of the sound, and gasped in
astonishment.
“Oh my, this…”
Wendy frowned, turned her head to look, and the smile on her face froze instantly.
Chloe was wearing a pale pinkce embroidered gown, vintage design. The small stand cor
around her neck, although hiding her neck, only emphasized her beautiful swan–like neck.
Her slender shoulders looked very elegant. Her waist was thin, and the skirt reached her ankles,
swaying with her steps. Her long hair was tied behind her head without any extra decoration, only a
pair of pale pink teardrop diamond earrings, simple and gentle.

Light makeup, looking clean and generous, both capable and soft.
Chloe’s outfit was probably the most conservative in the whole banquet hall.
These days, women seemed to like to show as much skin as possible. They were all trying to show
off, each trying to outdo the other. However, when they saw Chloe, they were somewhat at a loss
for words.
As Chloe walked into the banquet hall. Wendy watched her elegant and gentle figure, fists secretly
clenched.
Chloe stood at the entrance of the banquet hall. Her eyes, like ss, scanned the room and then
withdrew when she didn’t see Elizabeth. When she saw Wendy, she slightly tugged the corner of
her mouth and nodded at her, as a greeting.
Then, her face returned to its cool state, as if saying, “Keep your distance“.
“My, who is thisdy? Howe I’ve never seen her before?” Someone’s eyes showed
admiration.
“Hmph, she must have dressed like that on purpose, just to attract attention.”
“Yeah, she just wants to draw eyes.
“Her dress is so conservative, such shallow thinking.”
“Look, everyone in the room is looking at her, and she’s still standing there. What on earth does she
want?”
The men in the room were also amazed and admiring when they saw Chloe. They had seen all
kinds of women, but someone as charming as Chloe was indeed
rare.
Some of them couldn’t wait to step forward and strike up a conversation, but they were shocked by
her unreachable temperament. A few young women noticed these eager men. Displeased to see
their limelight from being stolen, they all red at Chloe, wishing they could rip her clothes to
shreds.
Sly woman, was she trying to hook all the men here?
However, Chloe just stood quietly by the side of the entrance, ignoring the greedy looks around her.
After a while, she tilted her head slightly, looking in the direction of the banquet hall’s entrance. Her
red lips slowly curved into a smile, and gradually, the smile spread from the corners of her eyes.
Her originally cold face at this moment was like a lotus blooming slowly on an ice field, the ice and
snow melting, full of life.
Everyone held their breath in an instant, what on earth did she see that made herugh so
charmingly?
