Cecelia took the list and quickly glanced at it. She knew that the Mainstay Group was a large domestic industrial investment group in the country and also one of the shareholders of the Linsey Group.

If she guessed correctly, the Linsey family would definitely take. advantage of this opportunity to solidify the relationship between Mainstay and the Linsey family.

How could Cecelia give Gary a chance?

Her goal in attending the banquet was to win over the Mainstay Group as well.

In the list, Cecelia found a name. It happened to be the husband of Karen, the president of Star Dream, Chris.

If Chris was present, it would be the perfect opportunity to implement her plan.

Thinking of something, Cecelia asked, “Did you invite the psychic we found?”

“We have invited Master Ronnie, and he will go with Mr. Chase.”

“Good.”

Everything was ready, and they just needed to wait for the party to begin!

The grand celebration banquet for the 50th anniversary of the Mainstay Group, owned by the Wood family, was held in the largest banquet hall of the Celestial Hotel.

Chris and Karen also attended the banquet. It seemed to outsiders that they were deep in love, but only Karen knew that it was just an illusion.

The mistress was also present at the banquet today. She wished she could rush up and fear the mistress apart, but she couldn’t embarrass herself in front of everyone, so she could only temporarily swallow her anger.

Representing the Linsey Corp., Gary personally attended the

banquet after recovering from his injuries, to show the importance of the shareholder, Mainstay.

The LC Group was also invited to the event. Upton and Master Ronnie arrived together and received extremely respectful

treatment.

Many big shots who believed in me ntal powers quickly gathered around Master Ronnie who was well-

known in the industry and greeted him.

Recently, many corporate leaders had been trying to curry favor with Upton from LC Group. How could Gary easily give up such a good opportunity to win Upton over?

He approached Upton with a glass of wine, trying to strike up a conversation, but unfortunately, Upton excused himself and walked

away.

The LC Group had never paid any attention to Gary!

Gary suspected that Cecelia had approached Upton behind his back. Maybe they were lovers! How shameless!

It was almost time, and the upper-class people gathered together, with the daughters of various rich families also present.

John was consulting Master Ronnie about some questions about me ntal powers, and everyone around was listening attentively.

Master Ronnie calculated John’s birth chart. “Mr. Wood, in your birth chart, there is a dark line on your forehead, indicating that there will be a blood disaster in the near future. You need to be more cautious to avoid it.”

Upon hearing this, John’s heart sank. “Please enlighten me, Master, and help me overcome this blood disaster!”

Master Ronnie nodded and continued to calculate for a moment. “Mr. Wood, you get a benefactor in your fate, dressed in purple. As long as this benefactor arrives, you will definitely avoid the disaster!”

“A benefactor in purple?”

John was confused, and those around him also felt a bit mysterious, but Upton knew exactly what it meant.

Upon hearing the master’s words, Chris on the side felt that the master was just being mysterious, and he didn’t believe in all this. He muttered, “How could there be a benefactor in purple?”

Upon hearing his words, everyone started scanning the room, trying to find the so-called purple-clothed benefactor in purple that the master mentioned.

John was also searching, but among the crowd, he didn’t see anyone wearing purple clothes.

At this moment, when Cecelia arrived alone at the entrance of the banquet hall, she was stopped by the bodyguards who asked her to show the invitation.

“I don’t have an invitation.”

“Miss, you can provide the name of your accompanying guest.”

Before Cecelia could speak, a female voice sounded. “Cecelia, what are you doing here?”

At a glance, Winnie noticed Cecelia who appeared at the entrance and hurriedly walked over angrily with her skirt raised.

Seeing Cecelia dressed in a purple evening gown, looking glamorous and radiant, Winnie sarcastically said, “What’s wrong? Do you want to crash the upper-class c ocktail party again? Don’t you see what occasion it is today? Whose territory do you think this is?”

“I know it’s the Wood family’s c ocktail party!”

“Listen carefully. Mainstay is my grandfather, and John is my eldest uncle. You are not welcome here, please leave immediately!”

Winnie pointed outside and was determined to drive Cecelia out of the hotel.

But at this moment, John, as if seeing a long-lost relative, rushed over from the party venue, his eyes shining with excitement.

“Oh, my benefactor has arrived!”

John came closer, looking up and down at the beautiful woman in purple clothes. He thought about something and said in surprise, “Are you Miss Cecelia?

It should be noted that in their upper-class circle, Cecelia had

Seeing her in person today, he found her even more beautiful and mysterious.

Moreover, she was wearing a purple evening gown and perfectly matched Master Ronnie’s words.

“Mr. Wood, you have a keen eye.”

“Miss Linsey, please come in quickly!”

John respectfully escorted his benefactor into the party venue.

Winnie was so mad and going crazy. She grabbed John’s arm and said, “Uncle, do you know who she is? Why are you inviting her in?” “How could I not know? She is my distinguished guest!”

John finished speaking and invited Cecelia inside. Cecelial straightened her back and glanced at Winnie with a gloomy gaze.

Humph, she loved it when Winnie couldn’t stand her but couldn’t do anything about her!

Winnie was so infuriated that her face was about to twist.

Could it be that even her uncle had been bewitched by Cecelia?

Cecelia was really disgusting!

As Cecelia was being invited in, she glanced at Upton and Master Ronnie unintentionally.

AL

John was overjoyed and said, “Master Ronnie, is this the lady the benefactor you were talking about?

She is the only one wearing purple today.”

Master Ronnie looked at Cecelia, examined her from head to toe, and nodded. “This lady is dressed in purple. She was born with great luck. She is truly indescribably benefactor!”

“That’s great! Thanks to you, I hope everything could go smoothly!”

John was so excited as if his fate was now in Cecelia’s hands. He already regarded her as his destined benefactor.

Cecelia’s arrival attracted the attention of all the men in the room. Coupled with Master Ronnie’s words, everyone felt that she was extraordinary.

The more attention Cecelia received, the angrier Winnie became.

Camelia was also present, and both of them were extremely jealous of the attention Cecelia was receiving.

Wherever Cecelia went, John deliberately followed her, treating her like a talisman.

Winnie was pis sed off and went to instigate her aunt. “Aunt, why don’t you go and stop Uncle? Look, he’s been following that tease the whole time!”

John’s wife was busy greeting the rich ladies. She just turned back to take a glance at her husband.

“What tease? Your uncle is talking to Mr. Chase from the LC Group. Don’t bother him!”

Winnie looked over again. At this moment, her uncle was indeed. talking to Mr. Chase, while Cecelia was chatting with someone two meters away.

However, just at that moment, a crystal lamp hanging from the ceiling suddenly loosened and fell straight toward John and Upton..

“Mr. Wood, Mr. Chase! Watch out!”
