Chapter 317: 132: Embarrass yourself in public? Xiaoge will dazzle your eyes!
She knew Iris’s nature well.
To please Edward, to make him happy, she would do anything.
A woman’s IQ was negative when she was in love.
Even if it was unrequited love.
Iris held Sylvia’s hand, her tone gentle, “Sylvia, aren’t you going to introduce me to your new sister?”
“As long as you promise me not to make things difficult for my sister,” Sylvia continued, “My sister has had a hard time living alone outside all these years.”
She looked like a good, innocent little sister, and anyone who didn’t know better would think she was harmless.
“Okay,” Iris nodded, “You wait here for a moment, I have to go to the restroom.”
“Alright.”
Iris went to the restroom.
She made a phone call.
“Hello.”
“I’m at Hibis International Center.”
“Do you still have any Charm? Send some over.”
“Don’t worry. It won’t be a big deal.”
Iris hooked the corner of her lips.
She was just a country bumpkin; if anything happened, she could only blame herself for being indiscreet.
Perhaps the Thompson Family was just waiting for something unfortunate to happen to her.
It would save them the embarrassment.
Iris came out of the restroom again.
Although the banquet had not officially started, the atmosphere inside the hall was getting more lively, with elegant ladies and gentlemen mingling.
The Thompsons had also arranged for a famous band to perform live.
Beautiful music filled every corner of the hall, and some people had already entered the dance floor, embracing each other and dancing gracefully.
From time to time, someone would greet Iris.
“Miss White.”
Iris nodded, “Miss Tiarks.”
Of course, there were also those who had higher status than the White family, and Iris had to greet them proactively, “Uncle Swantz, Aunt.”
“Iris is getting more and more beautiful.”
“Thank you, Aunt.”
With a proper smile on her face, Iris walked on.
It was easy to see that the guests at the Thompsons’ today were all elite members of Capital City society.
“Sylvia,” Iris walked to Sylvia’s side and continued, “It seems that your parents are quite doting on your new sister! They even invited the Autumn Band to be the background music!”
Autumn Band was a well-known band in the entertainment industry.
With millions of fans.
Who would have thought that the Thompson Family would hire them as the background music for the banquet?
Probably no other family in the Capital City could pull off such a grand gesture besides the Thompsons.
Sylvia nodded, “Yeah, my parents really like my sister.”
At this point, Sylvia continued, “The Autumn Band is nothing. There’s something even better coming.”
Iris asked, “Did your brother invite other stars from the entertainment industry?”
“My brother didn’t, he… never liked my sister.” Sylvia responded.
After saying this, Sylvia continued, “It was my grandmother. She dotes on my sister a lot, so she invited Master Dean to support her.”
“Dean?” Iris’s eyes widened, “The pianist Dean Legel from Uron Country?”
Dean Legel was not only a famous pianist in Country Yolta but also an international superstar.
He became famous at the age of thirteen.
Though he was already fifty years old, no one in the world of piano music has surpassed him.
If Edward was Iris’s dream man, then Dean Legel was her idol.
Dean Legel was indeed the idol of almost every piano student.
Hence, hearing this name, Iris was incredibly excited.
Sylvia nodded.
Iris frowned slightly, and then said, “Has your grandmother gone senile? She doesn’t like her brilliant granddaughter but a country bumpkin! On your 18th birthday, I don’t remember her sending you any valuable gifts.”
Inviting Dean Legel for a country bumpkin.
Could a country bumpkin understand piano?
Did a country bumpkin know what art was?
“It’s fine, I don’t mind,” Sylvia said.
Iris glanced at Sylvia, “No wonder your brother doesn’t like her. If it were me, I wouldn’t like her either.”
It was well known that Bob was obsessed with pampering his sister.
When Viola Thompson appeared, she stole all the love that belonged to Sylvia. Anyone would find it unbearable!
Take Edward for example; even she felt angry just hearing about it.
Mrs. Thompson was just too partial and biased!
“Don’t say that, Iris. My sister is actually quite nice,” Sylvia continued, “She’s just new to the family and is still unfamiliar with the environment.”
“Your brother was right, you’re like a little bunny, easy to be bullied by anyone. Now even a country bumpkin could ride on your head and poop.”
