Thank you all for taking the ti to attend this seminar. I appreciate it.”
Lydia wore a black dress. She walked downstairs and glanced at the hall with an overwhelming
presence.
Abel imdiately gasped, “I haven’t seen her for so many years. She still looks fierce!”
Wynter raised her eyebrows. “Do you know her?”
“She’s Lydia, the eldest daughter of the Yarwoods. She was in the army. But now, she
seems to be in business.”
Abel added, “Don’t be presumptuous in front of her. She might punch you.”
Accepting the advice, she lowered her head and chewed another gum harmlessly.
Lydia had a cool appearance, undoubtedly a beauty. It was clear that although she had a fighting spirit,
she was extrely well–educated.
“The Yarwoods have prepared so gifts for you all.”
Upon saying that, she clapped her hands as a signal, and a gift box rose next to everyone’s seat. The
gift box contained root herbs, truffles, cordyceps, and cash.
Wynter’s gaze beca more aningful after she saw the things in the gift box.
George was sitting not far from her, sneering, “I bet so people have never seen such a good thing.
She looks so excited!”
Abel was tired of George, but she didn’t care about him. The Yarwoods‘ gift was good. She
could take it ho for Wolf.
So, she didn’t let George’s ridicule get the best of her.
Lydia looked around, finding that most people were too timid to touch the gift box. Even the Gibsons
and the Shepherds seed unmoved by the high–quality gift.
She felt sowhat disappointed. The Gibsons and the Shepherds were the top four most prestigious
families in Southdale, but they seed hypocritical.
She was in business, so she had only one principle–no one hated money. If they disliked it,
it ant she hadn’t given enough.
When she felt bored and wanted to look away, she saw Wynter putting the cordyceps into
the black bag.
Lydia smiled. “Miss, it seems you like the gift.”
As soon as she said that, Wynter beca the center of attention.
The aristocratic families showed contempt and disdain toward her. Hilda also shook her head. “She’s
indeed not up to par.”
Charlie felt relieved that he had cut off the relationship with her. On the other hand, Yvette
was drinking tea to hide her smile.
Seeing that everyone had misunderstood her aning, Lydia was about to explain. But Wynter replied,
“Yes, the Yarwoods‘ gifts are all in excellent condition.”
George seed to be hearing a joke. “We all know that the Yarwoods have good stuff. But
none of us are as eager as you are!”
Everyone agreed, “That’s right!”
Wynter tapped the gift box slowly, saying sothing astonishing, “I always doubted
whether the Gibsons understand dicine.”
“You fledgling!”
George was pissed off. “How dare you keep provoking the Gibsons! Even if we’ve endured.
you, I won’t let you go anymore!”
She responded calmly, “I’ve broken your arm. How will you deal with ?”
“You b*tch!”
He was about to rush forward, but Hilda slapped the table, which stopped his move. Young lady, I don’t
care where you co from. But you keep humiliating us! If you can’t
explain, I won’t go easy on you!”
Abel tugged on Wynter’s sleeve, trying to stop her. She had gotten so impulsive that he
couldn’t protect her.
Margaret clearly said she was well–behaved. But she did the exact opposite of being well-
behaved!
He hinted at her desperately.
“Explain?” Wynter was unmoved. “Do you know what I took earlier?”
George imdiately answered, “It’s cordyceps! Don’t you even know about cordyceps
sinensis?”
Hilda seed to think of sothing and wanted to stop Wynter from speaking. But it was
too late.
