Yvonne Donovan initially wanted to decline, but she couldn’t resist the temptation of the large gift box.
If soone really gifted her sothing big, she would definitely be the talk of the circle today.
So, Yvonne Donovan couldn’t withstand the temptation and took a few steps forward to open the gift box in front of her.
Everyone else also turned their gaze towards Yvonne, eager to see what kind of treasure was inside such a large box.
Even Old Master Donovan, who was mingling, took a mont to glance in that direction and said, "It seems our sweet Yvonne is more well-liked!"
Afterward, he deliberately looked at Richard Donovan, as if to say, your own child is a troublemaker and won’t easily surpass Yvonne.
Richard Donovan noticed the elder’s implied gaze and then looked towards the direction of the gift box.
Actually, he didn’t think that receiving many gifts today necessarily ant popularity.
In his opinion, personal charm was more important.
Yvonne herself, although not bad, still fell short compared to July Quinn, who could make peers admire her so much they’d want her to be their ntor.
Moreover, Richard found it intriguing that July Quinn could make Roman Kidd start to curry favor with him...
Even though they had worked together for a long ti, Roman Kidd was not soone who would flatter others.
Moreover, achieving so much at a young age, his arrogance was not sothing ordinary people could match.
So during their previous working ti, Roman Kidd’s conversations with him were usually only about work, and even if they occasionally t in private, their words seldom exceeded five sentences.
Yet, today, Roman Kidd took the initiative to chat about personal matters and even spoke flattering words.
Considering Roman Kidd had also made it clear that he ca specifically for July Quinn to avoid misunderstandings...
Richard Donovan, having been young once himself, naturally understood all of Roman Kidd’s motives instantly.
Knowing his child was liked, especially by soone young with a position no lower than his own, naturally pleased Richard Donovan.
Moreover, he believed Roman Kidd was more suitable for his daughter than Kyle Keaton.
You see, even in such a formal gathering, Roman Kidd, who didn’t usually like attending events, was present and even said supportive words for July Quinn.
In contrast, Kyle Keaton had yet to make an appearance.
Richard naturally doubted whether soone who didn’t value his daughter in such a manner could provide her with a happy life in the future.
Richard ignored Old Master Donovan, contemplating how to persuade July Quinn to break up with soone who didn’t value her in a few days.
By this ti, Yvonne had already reached the side of the gift box and reached out to pull the ribbon tied to it.
But before she could touch the ribbon, the gift box suddenly began to shake.
This movent startled Yvonne considerably.
"What on earth is this? It can even move."
The crowd, who had gathered out of curiosity, also instantly backed away, afraid of being hard by whatever living thing was inside.
Yvonne, at one point, wanted to hide behind these people, but they scrambled to get away.
Indeed, they wanted to appease Yvonne to gain benefits, but what good were benefits if one was dead?
So, Yvonne was quickly pushed to the forefront again.
"Don’t push , I’m scared."
"But this gift is yours; if you don’t go, who will?"
"Who said this gift is mine?"
Yvonne was almost driven to tears by anger.
These people would flock to her when there was gain to be had, yet now, sensing a life threat, they pushed her out.
As for Evan Zachary, who always cared for her, he was busy socializing with Roman Kidd earlier.
When he noticed the box moving and hurried to her side, it was already too late.
Seeing the box shaking more vigorously, Yvonne’s legs were becoming weaker.
It was completely unexpected for July Quinn to stand in front of her and swiftly pull off the ribbon of the gift box...
