Chapter 30: Chapter 30 The Protagonist of Tonight Has Finally Arrived Chapter 30 -30 The Protagonist of Tonight Has Finally Arrived The Jennings family’s decor had an understated luxury. Once the glass doors connecting the front hall and the garden platform were opened, the entire banquet appeared semi-open.

The decorations, the flow of events, and the variety of delicacies were all arranged by a specialized planning company.

Even though the Garrison family often attended various parties, they couldn’t help but feel envious when they saw the Jennings family’s presentation.

Looking at the elites and socialites coming and going, Isolde Garrison straightened her back unconsciously as soon as she walked in, striving to showcase her most beautiful side to everyone tonight.

For this evening’s banquet, she specifically insisted on having her father spend a fortune on a new spring haute couture gown from Blue, a princess-

style strapless tulle dress, paired with a small crown on her head, accentuating her as if she were a princess.

With the sweet smile she deliberately put on, indeed, she caught quite a few sideways glances as she entered.

But before Isolde could strike a more beautiful pose, the gazes that had initially lingered swiftly withdrew. In the corner of her eyes, she even caught some disdain.

Isolde was somewhat bewildered, unsure of what was wrong with her look.

Unbeknownst to her, after she and her parents left, a girl in a black dress quietly chuckled with someone next to her in the corner.

“Who was that lady just now? Doesn’t she know who the main star is today? Wearing a crown, does she think she’s the “princess’ of the night?”

Someone beside her added, “She seems familiar, but I can’t recall who she is.”

“Isn’t that the president of the Garrison Clan? How did the Garrison family make it onto the guest list today?”

Not to mention a few people at the banquet paid attention to the Garrison family, even Blaise Jennings became visibly confused when he saw the Garrison family approaching him.

Wasn’t that the Garrison family? Who let them in here?

Elder brother had repeatedly told everyone that the Garrison family mistreated their daughter from the Jennings family and barred any future collaboration with the Garrison family. The previous partnerships were all canceled, so how were these people here?

“Assistant Jennings, it’s so great to see you! I’ve always wanted to find a chance to meet with you again, but unfortunately, we never managed it.

What a coincidence.”

At the moment he caught sight of him, Timothy Garrison effusively expressed his enthusiasm, as it was initially Assistant Jennings who contacted him for cooperation in the first place. Timothy’s first priority upon entering the Jennings’s event was, of course, to find him.

Blaise Jennings’s wife, who was the Third Mrs. Jennings, Flora Xalvadora, originally had her arm linked with her husband’s as they mingled in the banquet hall greeting guests, paused in surprise upon seeing the Garrison family, but maintained a gentle smile as she inquired, “Yutong, who are these people?”

Flora Xalvadora hadn’t met the Garrison family before. Emma White had visited, but unfortunately, she was turned away before reaching the door, so Flora didn’t recognize them either.

Blaise Jennings explained, “Let me introduce you. This is President Garrison and his wife, and this should be their daughter.”

Upon learning their surname was Garrison, Flora Xalvadora’s expression became subtly nuanced.

Even though the Jennings Group was inherited by the eldest brother, Blaise Jennings always followed his elder brother’s lead, and the entire family was accustomed to taking his direction.

Flora knew well that the elder brother had no regard for the Garrison family.

In fact, neither she nor the elder brother thought much of them.

She later found out that although Scarlett from the Garrison family was officially the eldest daughter, she was actually raised as a companion to Isolde. Carrying bags and buying snacks for Isolde, checking in when she was hospitalized, Scarlett was always there.

Under the guise of an elder sister looking after her younger sibling, but the Garrison family could afford caregivers, couldn’t they? Was it necessary to make one child take care of another?

Scarlett was hit by a car and hospitalized while saving Isolde, yet the Garrison family showed no gratitude, even kicking her out empty-handed.

If it hadn’t been for Emma White’s unexpected attitude towards Scarlett during her visit yesterday, Luca Jennings wouldn’t have rushed to investigate.

What they found made them angrier the more they saw.

Even without evidence of Emma White directly mistreating Scarlett, Scarlett did suffer many grievances in the Garrison family.

So Flora Xalvadora didn’t hold any good feelings towards this family, and her expression turned colder, “So these are President Garrison and his wife.

It’s finally a pleasure to meet.”

Having recognized their faces, she planned to ensure the guards wouldn’t let them in next time.

Timothy Garrison, preoccupied with the cooperation, didn’t overthink Flora’s attitude and instead laughed heartily, “Yes, my wife brought our daughter to visit the other day. Unfortunately, they didn’t meet. She mentioned the missed opportunity with regret, but it’s good that we met today.”

“Oh?” Flora Xalvadora raised an eyebrow at his words, half-smiling, “Did Mrs. Garrison not tell you why she didn’t meet anyone?”

If Flora Xalvadora’s earlier attitude made Isolde and her mother slightly nervous, hearing this question made their hearts skip a beat.

Timothy was initially confused but, being shrewd, noticed something amiss upon glancing at his wife and daughter, whose guilty expressions made his heart sink. Quickly, he said, “My wife and daughter have been a bit spoiled by me. If they offended the Third Madam, please don’t mind them.”

Flora Xalvadora exchanged a glance with Blaise Jennings, both seemingly understanding something.

So the Garrison’s mother and daughter had said nothing about what happened at the Jennings family that day.

The situation was getting interesting.

“Mrs. Garrison and the young lady didn’t even meet my wife that day, so talking about any offense isn’t applicable.”

Blaise Jennings laughed it off, knowing he couldn’t directly mention that the cooperation ended due to the elder brother’s displeasure with the Garrison family, as that would tarnish the Jennings family’s reputation.

Timothy Garrison, familiar with the art of business conversations, was now convinced that his business with the Jennings family was ruined because of Emma White and Isolde’s visit that day!

And they had kept it from him!

Timothy shot a cold glance at them, mindful of the occasion, refraining from showing too much anger but wearing a look promising a reckoning later, and turned to Blaise Jennings with sincerity, The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon!

Chapter 29 Raising the Curtain His Genius Wife Is A Superstar Chapter 1646: Master Beauty Taming The Villainesses “Assistant Jennings, there must be a misunderstanding. Please, don’t let a small misunderstanding ruin the cooperation between our families. I truly wish to cooperate with the Jennings Group. If you have any terms regarding the partnership, the Garrison Clan will comply.”

Blaise Jennings looked at him and just shook his head, “Actually, this cancellation was my elder brother’s decision, and I really can’t be of any help here.”

Blaise Jennings feigned a troubled look, as if saying, “This wasn’t my wish, but I have to listen to my elder brother.’

Timothy felt another jolt upon hearing that it was President Jiang’s decision. Confused as to why this had to do with him, he instinctively glanced at his wife and daughter, who looked even more guilty than before.

He almost lost his cool on the spot.

What kind of trouble had they stirred at the Jennings family that day?!

Before Timothy could think of how to question the mother and daughter when they returned, Third Mrs. Jennings suddenly spoke, shifting to an unrelated topic, “Oh, tonight’s main star has finally appeared. Since President Garrison has always been so attentive to our child, now that you’re here, you must have a good drink tonight.”

Feeling bewildered, Timothy instinctively followed the crowd’s gaze toward the corner of the staircase in the front hall.

And upon clearly seeing the graceful figure descending the stairs with a pure white camellia, He froze on the spot.
