Chapter58 The Arrogant Old Lady Shaw

    The Arrogant Old Lady Shaw


    After entering the banquet hall, Diana walked up to Old Lady Shaw and greeted respectfully, "Happy


    birthday grandma, I wish you good health and all the best..."


    After seeing Diana, Old Lady Shaw nodded and said, “Find a ce to sit..." Old Lady Shaw just looked


    through Diana, and her attitude waspletely indifferent.


    Diana''s second elder uncle Lennox scolded Diana, "Diana, What''s the matter with you? Why are you


    here sote? Don''t you know that today is your grandma''s 70th birthday?"


    Diana said apologetically, "Sorry, I just came back from SKY City today, and I packed my luggage for a


    long time..."


    Lennox sneered, "Hmm, it seems that in your heart, your packing is more important than your


    grandma''s birthday..."


    Seeing Lennox’s constant criticism of Diana, Sally couldn’t help but smirked and replied, “Brother

    Lennox, how can wepare to you? Your family has a big business, and you are the second fiddle of


    Shaw’spany. But we are in a bad situation. After Mentog was dead, who cared about us?"


    As soon as Sally finished speaking, Old Lady Shaw suddenly snorted, "Huh, Sally, you mean to imply


    that I''m partial and I''m doing something wrong, right?"


    Sally sneered and pinched her nails, then said in an ironic tone, "Huh, Mom, how can I dare to speak ill


    of you? When Mentog was alive, I didn''t dare to do that, let alone that he was dead. I am an outsider,


    who cares if we live or die..."


    Old Lady Shaw narrowed her eyes. Lennox pped on the table, “Sally! How can you talk to mom like


    that? If you don''t want to attend mom''s birthday banquet, don''te here, you can go now! "


    Sally sneered, "Heh, I''m leaving now! My son-inw, Judson, was said to be an outsider and was


    stopped outside by the Shaw Family. I am also an outsider, so I won''t be embarrassed here anymore.


    I''d better be a little self-conscious... "


    Sally left after speaking. Sally was a typical snob, who tended to be a follower of the rich and powerful.


    But despite her snobbery, she was not really stupid. Although Judson told her that he had no money,


    Judson still had a rtionship with the dignitaries in society. He was friends with Bruce, president of


    Ray Group, and he also knew the boss of “Yanis” this afternoon. So even if Sally offended the Shaw


    Family now, she didn''t panic at all.


    Diana was stunned when she watched Sally contradict the others. Is this Sally she knew? Wasn''t Sally


    meek and subservient in front of the Shaw Family before? And why did she defend Judson so much


    now? But despite doubts, Diana felt quitefortable seeing Sally defending Judson now.


    "Well, Sally, we are all a family, why are you making trouble like this? Today is Mom''s birthday, you and


    Diana go and sit down..." Diana’s uncle Dexter tried to ease the atmosphere.


    Dexter then spoke to Diana, "Diana, I heard that you sold yourpany. What are you going to do


    next?"


    Diana hesitated and said to Old Lady Shaw, "Grandma, I... can I go back to work in Shaw''spany?"


    Old Lady Shaw frowned, "Diana, thepany''s current economic situation is not very good now. I


    wee you back to work, but now thepany does not have a suitable job position for you, and


    there are no vacancies for the management post. Grandma can''t let you be a small employee, right?"


    When Diana heard this, her eyes dimmed, and then she smiled and said, "Well, it''s okay, thank you


    grandma, I... I will find a job by myself..."


    Diana then took Sally to the seat in the distance where there was no one.


    At this moment, not long after Diana left, she heard uncle Lennox behind her whisper, "She still wants


    toe back. Is sheing back to share the wealth of our Shaw Family? If she is not married, she


    can still do this. But she has been married now and Mentog was dead, so she has no reason toe


    back. Our property cannot be given to outsiders casually. Anyway, I don''t agree with this matter..."


    Lennox didn''t speak in a low voice, and Diana could just hear him. Diana trembled slightly and turned


    to look at Lennox, "Uncle Lennox, you told me on purpose, right?"


    Lennox waved his hand and said, "I just said casually. Didn''t your grandma say that thepany has


    no position now? Of course, if you want toe over to be a small employee, I have no objection..."


    Diana was so angry that her body was trembling, and she gave the Shaw Family members a


    meaningful look. Lennox smiled indifferently and stared at her, while Dexter smiled and turned his head


    aside, obviously not willing to pay attention to her. Old Lady Shaw got up and chatted with a partner of


    the Shaw Family...


    Diana understood it all in an instant. She quietly clenched her fist and said to Lennox, "UncleLennox,


    uncle Dexter, don''t worry, even if I starve to death, I won''te back to snatch your property!"


    Diana walked far away after speaking. Sally pulled Diana''s arm and looked at her daughter worriedly,


    "Diana, don''t take it seriously. Don''t be afraid, you still have me and Judson by your side. From now on,


    our family will live a peaceful life... we don’t have to seek help..."


    Diana felt much better when she heard Sally''s words. She nodded vigorously, "well, thank you, mom..."


    Sally''s attitude towards Judson made Diana feel much better. In fact, she really didn''t care how much


    money she earned. All she wanted was a in happiness.


    Sally pulled Diana to an empty table at the end of the banquet hall, "Diana, now you can see that the


    Shaw Family didn''t take you seriously at all. Since your father died, they havepletely ignored you.


    In the main seat, they would rather allow outsiders to sit there than give us a ce...Well, your father


    was dead, no one cared about us..."


    As Sally was talking, she became sadder, with tears fell from her cheeks. Diana quickly wiped her tears


    with tissue andforted her, "Mom, it''s okay, you still have me and Judson by your side. Judson and I


    will take care of you in the future..."


    "Okay..." Sally nodded...


    "Miss Shaw? Why are you here?" Just as Dianaforted Sally, she suddenly heard a voice in


    surprise. Then two people walked in from the back of the banquet hall.


    Diana turned her head and saw that it was Bruce in a ck suit. Bruce was followed by the fat middle-


    aged man George.


    Diana looked at Bruce and was also a little surprised, "President Hill? Why are you here? Are you also


    here for my grandma''s birthday party?"


    Bruce took a suspicious look at Diana, and then he looked at Old Lady Shaw who was in front of the


    crowd before he understood what Diana meant. Then he said to Diana, "No, I just finished my business


    with others upstairs, and I happened to see you when I was about to leave. Miss Shaw, is your


    grandmother''s birthday today?”


    Diana nodded...


    Bruce nodded, and then said to George, "Manager Konhey, since it''s the birthday of Miss Shaw’s


    grandmother, please go and congratte her..."
