Although the invitations to this birthday party had been sent out, not many people had t the eldest daughter of the Smith Family, let alone knew that the eldest daughter of the Smith Family was Helen lendy.
As a result, everyone was waiting for soone from the Smith Family to solve their confusion.
At this point, the guests had basically arrived, and the Smith Family also knew that many people were very confused about Helen lendy’s identity.
These people basically knew she was Harry Hall’s wife, but didn’t know she was the eldest daughter of the Smith Family.
Evelyn Taylor and her husband were the first to walk over to Helen and her husband, looking at the guests in the hall.
Each of them was holding a glass of champagne, and Evelyn Taylor was the first to speak:
"Let introduce to all of you, this is our youngest daughter next to . I’m sure everyone here has t our Helen before. Today is her birthday, and we really appreciate you all taking ti out of your busy schedules to attend our daughter’s birthday party..."
After introducing Helen lendy’s identity, Evelyn Taylor went on to say so polite words.
But she didn’t ntion the incident of switching children all those years ago.
Her purpose was simply to let others know who their true daughter of the Smith Family was, so that in the future, no matter what they did, they would weigh her identity carefully.
Everyone knew tonight was the Smith Family’s youngest daughter’s birthday, so when Helen lendy ca down from upstairs, many people naturally guessed that she was the Smith Family’s youngest daughter.
But everyone knew that Helen lendy was an orphan with no family background. In a blink of an eye, she turned out to be the Smith Family’s eldest daughter, and many were curious about this.
However, curiosity remained curiosity, and no one pursued questions in such an occasion. If they wanted to know, there would be plenty of opportunities later.
But just because most people were aware, it didn’t an everyone had the sa awareness.
After Evelyn Taylor introduced Helen lendy, she and her husband Charles Smith prepared to greet the guests, but then a slightly arrogant female voice rang out from within the crowd—
"Aunt, today isn’t it Olivia’s birthday? You and Uncle are celebrating this Miss Helen’s birthday, so where is Olivia?"
When this female voice spoke, everyone turned their attention to Evelyn Taylor.
It was clear that just because they didn’t ask, it didn’t an they weren’t curious.
Evelyn Taylor’s face, which had been brimming with a smile, now slightly restrained, albeit not too obviously.
She wasn’t angry at the young woman for asking this question; rather, she had detected a tone in the young woman’s voice that clearly disdained her daughter.
This young woman, who called her "Aunt," was from a collateral branch of the Smith Family, nad Molly Smith.
Her grandfather and Edward Smith’s grandfather were cousins, a bit distant, but they still had so interactions.
The matter of Charles Smith and his wife finding their biological daughter was only known to the few direct family mbers of the Smith Family, and they hadn’t inford everyone.
Molly Smith’s family was one of those who hadn’t been inford.
So it wasn’t surprising that Molly Smith didn’t know Helen lendy was the true daughter of the Smith Family.
Moreover, she usually got along well with Olivia Smith, and asking this question now was obviously trying to stand up for Olivia Smith.
Evelyn Taylor was thoroughly displeased with Olivia Smith, and naturally, she wouldn’t be very fond of Molly Smith, who was close to Olivia.
Her gaze swept over Molly Smith lightly and she ignored her.
But Molly Smith didn’t understand Evelyn Taylor’s expression, though her parents did, and they quickly pulled their daughter, who was charging ahead, back.
Molly Smith had always thought today’s birthday party was for Olivia Smith, and she had been looking for Olivia Smith since she arrived, but no one told her where Olivia was.
