“D-Did you make a mistake?”
After a moment of silence, Yelena yelled with her shrill voice, “How is it possible that you’re looking for
her!?”
“May I know if you’re Ms. Cordelia Jenner?” The man had a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.
“If you’re not, please step back!”
“You—”
“This is the Splendor Dynasty. The Hamertons are hosting the dinner,” the man said flatly. “It’s my job to
decide who to welcome and who not to welcome. I don’t need you to tell me how to do my job!”
Yelena’s face paled from the rage. The corner of her lips twitched, and she could not squeeze a word.
Joanne and William looked at each other, troubled. They thought what was happening was odd.
It was Cordelia! How would a disgraced illegitimate daughter deserve to be in such an event!?
“Ms. Jenner.” The man walked to Cordelia and nodded respectfully. “Please come with me.”
Cordelia’s heart was pounding. As if she was struck by lightning, her chaotic mind was now empty.
“Sir, d-did you make a mistake?” she asked softly in a testing manner. “I don’t have an invitation. And
I’m not here for the ball. I just want to deliver some documents…”
“Please come with me, Ms. Jenner. Don’t get me in trouble.” Smiling, the man looked at her.
“Hey!” Joanne was pissed and tucked at the man. “What about us?”
The man smirked. “Do you have an invitation?”
“What invitation!?” Joanne looked like a shrewd woman with her hands on her hips. “Go ask around.
The young lady of the Quimbies of Centrolis is m-my aunt’s niece! She’ll grant us access to the ball!
Who are you to ask for the invitation from me!?”
“The Quimbies?” The man pursed his lips and chuckled out loud. “Ma’am, I’m the Splendor Dynasty’s
general manager. I work for the four families. Forgive me for being ignorant, but I don’t see the
Quimbies on the list.”
Joanne’s expression changed. William glared at her angrily.
At that moment, more and more people were passing by. Some looked at them curiously. Their eyes
were like sharp blades, making William ashamed.
“Ms. Jenner.” The general manager stretched his arm respectfully. “After you!”
Cordelia pursed her lips and went with him. The general manager clapped, and two attendants instantly
came over, stopping reporters from bothering her.
Yelena stomped hard as she watched Cordelia being escorted to the dazzling hall like a star.
Cordelia went into a room with the general manager. It was beautiful as if it was a fairy’s lair.
However, the room was located far from the banquet hall. She could no longer hear the noise.
Exquisite and sumptuous dishes were served on the table. There were even attendants on call.
Just as Cordelia was confused by the situation, the general manager smiled at her. “You may eat first,
Ms. Jenner. My master knew that you didn’t come in a gown, so he arranged to put you here. Are you
happy with this?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCordelia was stunned before nodding hard.
“Master said it’s fine if you don’t go to the dinner as long as you’re well-fed and have fun.”
“May I know who your master is…”
The general manager showed a cryptic smile while looking at the documents she was holding.
“Who are you giving these documents to, Ms. Jenner?”
Cordelia thought about it. Could it be that Josiah had seen her trying to get into the Bayer Group this
afternoon?
She was surprised by the high and mighty man being kind to a guest. He had arranged her somewhere
far from the hall. She did not have to be drowned in the crowd, yet she would be fed and rested all she
wanted here.
Perhaps she could get this man to deliver the sales proposal…
Cordelia smiled and bowed at the general manager. She then placed the documents in his hands with
all seriousness.
…
After returning to Jangasas, Cordelia excitedly told Marcus about it.
He sat on the couch, watching her lady cleaning the house while telling her story like a happy magpie.
He chuckled as if they were a world apart.
Cordelia was over the moon. Not only had she managed to deliver the sales proposal, but she was also
happy that she saw Joanne and Yelena’s raging faces when they were stopped at the door.
However, she did not tell Marcus about it.
Therefore, Josiah’s name was repeated many times throughout her story.
“I thought I’d return with nothing. All thanks to Mr. Bayer, I finally sent the proposal out. I’ve done my
job.
“I didn’t expect Mr. Bayer to be so nice to be inviting me in! But I didn’t join that ball. I was only eating in
a beautiful room.
“He’s different from what I imagined. I thought a person who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth
like him would be playful… I didn’t expect him to be ambitious!”
“Ambitious?”
Marcus was quite pissed already. He was fuming when he heard that. He could not help but scoff.
“Did you see him? Did you talk to him?”
“I didn’t.” Feeling embarrassed, Cordelia scratched her head. “But isn’t he ambitious to be willing to
look at my proposal?”
“All you know about him is limited to pictures and some official information. The dinner was the biggest
connection you guys had, but you have never met him… You can tell that he’s ambitious just from
that?”
Cordelia peeped at Marcus carefully and noticed something was wrong. He looked terrible.
She was stunned when she asked softly, “Wh-What’s wrong, hubby? Are you mad?”
“D-Did you make a mistake?”
After a moment of silence, Yelena yelled with her shrill voice, “How is it possible that you’re looking for
