Chapter 738

Shelly retorted, “Don’t feed me that courtesy speech, I’m not naïve

to fall for it. Tim and Monalize will marry and have a baby. That’s whe we’ll have the true heir. The

illegitimate child will be sent away in the end.

Luna’s expression turned icy.

At that moment, Sharon stormed down the stairs. “Shelly, what nonsense are you spouting? Asher is

part of our family, too. Why would we send him, away?”

“We’ll see,” Shelly replied dismissively, heading upstairs without a care.

Luna approached Sharon with coffee. “Please don’t be upset, Mrs. Barrett. That’s just how Shelly is.”

Sharon snorted. “What is she so smug about? Despite cutting ties with

certain family members, she and her mother still live in the Barrett residence. If it weren’t for Tim’s

generosity, I would have kicked them out long ago. Shameless!”

Sharon’s anger still simmered from the fashion show debacle, where Shelly sided with an outsider,

putting Sharon in an uncomfortable position.

It was infuriating.

“Mre Barrett, I overheard Shelly saying that Tim has invited that woman to the birthday party. So,

perhaps you should consider postponing the blind date with Ms. Chapman?”

Sharon disagreed. “No need for that. I intend to give that woman a taste of her own medicine at the

party.”

Luna internally celebrated the news, as that was exactly what she was hoping for. She had only

mentioned it to provoke Sharon.

The ideal outcome would be for both parties to suffer losses when Nikki

Chapman stirred up trouble tomorrow.

Luna beckoned Asher. “Come, you should wish your grandmother an early birthday. Otherwise, you’ll

be too shy when the party begins. It’s going to be crowded.”

Smiling, Sharon ruffled his hair before instructing the maid to take him

away.

Only then did she say, “Luna, as you know, Ms. Chapman will be attending the party. Therefore, it

wouldn’t be appropriate for Asher to be there. Do you get what I mean?”

Although Asher’s existence was widely known, his status within the family was an entirely different

matter. Luna’s expression stiffened. Her mood plummeted.

Why did her son not deserve to attend the party?

Still, her rationality prevailed. “Yes, I understand.”

“Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, I will ensure that Asher is treated right.”

Luna lowered her head meekly, but a glint of determination shone in her eyes. It hadn’t been easy to

come this far. She couldn’t just give up now.

As Mia’s car approached the vicinity of Aide Castle in the evening, her spirits soared at the sight of her

project brought to life. If Aide Castle’s popularity surged, she could start contemplating plans for the

next one.

Mia strode confidently toward the party venue in a stunning red evening gown. Her bold demeanor

attracted the attention of many.

Luna, stationed near the entrance, caught sight of Mia. She arrived like a star, radiating a captivating

presence. Jealousy surged within Luna, and she tightly clenched her fists to steady herself.

After all, today’s event held significant importance for her.

Two bodyguards stopped Mia at the entrance. “Miss, may we see your

invitation card, please?”
