Chapter 356 Must I Have An Invitation

Upon seeing Gwenn’s confident appearance, Kareen immediately stepped forward to help. “That’s

right. Cherise, show her the invitation card if you have it!”

“If you don’t, don’t blame Gwenn for following the rules and instructing people to show you out!”

Cherise gritted her teeth. “My husband and I have been staying at Tanner Residence for the past few

days. Do I really need an invitation to prove my identity?”

“Absolutely.”

Gwenn deliberately wanted to embarrass Cherise. After all, it was only half an hour until the official

start of the birthday banquet. Mr. Tanner and Beckham wouldn’t arrive in advance, and Damien was in

the backyard. As long as her people found an excuse to stop him, he couldn’t save this damsel in

distress!

As she thought about it, she smiled more arrogantly. “Here’s the situation. The Tanner family has a rule

that our guests can stay at Tanner Residence with their partners. However, only those who have

received invitations have the right to attend our banquets.”

“After all, the banquet is a formal occasion. Only those with invitations may attend.”

“If you don’t believe me, take a look. Mrs. Gruth and Ms. Ludgate from a few days ago. aren’t here, are

they? That’s because they didn’t receive an invitation.”

Cherise’s hands were clenched tightly. She took a deep breath. “Ms. Tanner, you said it yourself. Those

without invitation cards can’t enter this hall.”

“If I didn’t have an invitation, the security outside wouldn’t have let me in.”

“Why must you make things difficult for me?”

Kareen rolled her eyes. “How would we know if the security outside were attracted by your flirtatious

demeanor and made an exception by letting you in?”

“As the daughter of the Tanner family, Gwenn just wants to look at your invitation. Doesn’t she have the

right to do this?”

The two spoke loudly, and people around them started discussing it spiritedly.

“Don’t tell me this girl doesn’t have an invitation?”

“How embarrassing. Why did she sneak in without an invitation?”

“She can’t act so recklessly even if Mr. Tanner favors her…”

Gwenn and Kareen grew even more delighted as the people around them made nastier remarks about

Cherise.

Cherise took a deep breath and organized her thoughts. “It’s not that I don’t want to show you my

invitation card. Are you trying to declare war on the Lenoir family by being so aggressive, Ms. Tanner?”

Gwenn wrinkled her brows. “What are you talking about? I just want to take a look at your invitation.

Why are you coming up with all sorts of excuses?”

Why does this stupid girl know so much?

Cherise smiled callously. “Because everyone kept taunting me for being unsophisticated, I stayed in my

room for the past few days and familiarized myself with high society’s social etiquette.”

“Your current behavior, Ms. Tanner, shows your disrespect for the Lenoir family.”

“If I don’t show you my invitation, I’m not obeying the Tanner family’s rules.”

“If I do, wouldn’t you have violated social etiquette, Ms. Tanner? Wouldn’t you be declaring war on the

Lenoir family?”

Gwenn narrowed her eyes and didn’t say anything.

Kareen frowned. “What nonsense are you spouting? If you have an invitation, show it to

us.”

“The Tanner family only invited your husband, not you!”

Cherise stood her ground and looked at Gwenn with a faint smile. “Do you really think I can’t show you

my invitation, Ms. Tanner?”

“Mr. Lenoir…”

In the corridor outside the hall, Mr. Hampson looked at Damien. “Mr. Lenoir, Mrs. Lenoir is in a difficult

spot. Aren’t you going in to help her out?”

Damien shook his head. “Don’t you think she has matured?”

The crowd in the hall was in a frenzy.

Gwenn wrinkled her brows. After a long time, she finally spoke coldly. “You don’t have to keep bluffing.

If you had an invitation, you would have shown it to me long ago.”

“Alright.”

Cherise took a deep breath and took out a gilded black invitation from her handbag.
