Chapter 532 Birthday Banquet

Today was significant for Summer as it marked her birthday, symbolizing her rise within

the Olsen family.

Since taking the reins, more and more people began to grasp the true importance of this

young lady.

To honor her, a special feature titled ‘From Researcher to Heiress- The Summer Olsen’s

Journey’ was created, lavishing her with commends, as society loves witnessing capable

socialites in action.

The Olsen family’s unconventional decision to place their daughter in charge of family

affairs rather than the eldest son stirred up a whirlwind of gossip and fascination. This

public appearance was Summer’s first since returning to the country. Mark spared no

effort in organizing a grand celebration.

Guests had been streaming in since the afternoon, and the room was filled with gifts from

high-ranking officials and dignitaries.

However, truly meaningful celebrations for Summer’s birthday were few and far between.

Nearly every guest at the banquet tonight was engaging in social interactions solely

driven by their personal interests, and Summer was acutely aware of this fact.

“What time is it? Why hasn’t Dex arrived yet?”

Summer gathered her dress and walked toward the window, hoping to spot Dexter’s car

pulling up outside. Much to her disappointment, it was not in view

A vigilant servant looked up and informed her, “Ms. Olsen, Mr. Russell has left a gift for

you.”

The servant hesitated to finish the sentence. Mr. Russell’s probably not coming.

Summer furrowed her brow, “What gift?”

The packaging was exquisite, revealing a valuable necklace, and to her, it was nothing

extraordinary for a typical birthday gift.

Summer’s anger surged as she examined the necklace, causing her to fling the gift onto

the ground. “Why on earth would I need a necklace?”

The servant dared not utter a word. Suddenly, her eyes lit up as she spotted a potential

savior, “Mrs. Olsen!”

Summer looked up and saw Claudia approaching with a glass of water. Still, she remained

silent.

Claudia donned a petite Chanel-style jacket paired with an elegant skirt. She glanced at

the discarded necklace and stooped down to retrieve it. “Not fancy it? Let me unwrap

another one for you.”

She casually unwrapped another gift, exclaiming, “Oh, check this out. It’s a Picasso

painting. It’s totally your style. Let’s see who sent it… Oh, it’s from Arnold. Man, as usual,

Arnold is super generous to you!”

This painting actually sold for a crazy amount at a Sotheby’s auction.

Arnold insisted it was a simple gift, showcasing his incredible generosity.

Summer glanced at it briefly and said, “Not really my thing. Even if Dex handed me a leaf,

I would appreciate it because it’s from him. But even if Arnold gave me an entire city, I still

wouldn’t like it.”

Her preference was crystal clear.

Claudia shook her head and placed the artwork aside. “Hey, you gotta know. Having

someone like Arnold spoil you like this is not an everyday occurrence. You’re lucky and

blessed, Summer. And remember. Dexter is a married man now.”

Hearing this, Summer instantly felt a pang of injustice. “Mom, are you also trying to give

me away to Arnold, just like Dad?”

Claudia gave her shoulder a reassuring pat. “I hope you can live a life that is simple,

uncomplicated, and filled with happiness. I never intended for you to become the Olsen

Group’s heir and carry the Olsen family’s weight.”

Summer pursed her lips, feeling a hint of resistance. “I can handle it.”

Observing her reaction, Claudia refrained from saying anything further. She wasn’t fond of

overly festive occasions, but today was a significant day for Summer, so she had to be

there.

“I haven’t seen your brother and sister-in-law since my return. Do you know where they

are?”

Summer’s expression turned slightly peculiar. “How would I know? I’m going downstairs

now, my guests should have all arrived.”

“Eh… Claudia watched Summer walk away, and Mark’s voice reached her just then.

“Alright. Enough already. Just let her be.”

She turned around. “By the way, Zach and Laura, are they not home?”

Mark’s expression appeared somewhat secretive. He took her hand and said, “Young

people have their own matters to attend to. They’ll be back later. Let’s go downstairs.

Don’t keep Summer and the guests waiting.”
