As Mia glanced up, she couldn't help but notice Raymond approaching. With a meaningful expression, she remarked, "Well, it certainly seems that Ms. Maynard isn't particularly welcoming to me." "Ms. Lane, perhaps you're being a bit harsh. Luna is still learning and getting used to things. Please be patient with her," Raymond interjected, attempting to mediate.

"But Ms. Maynard is in her thirties; she's an adult, not a toddler. Should I be the one bending over backward to accommodate her? Frankly, smight even question her intelligence if they knew about this." Feeling defensive, Luna retorted, "Whom are you suggesting might have maturity issues?" "Luna, what's with the attitude? Apologize to Ms. Lane right away, understood? She's a guest I personally invited today. How could you speak to her like that?" Raymond's disappointment was evident as he observed Luna's behavior. He had always seen her as an intelligent woman, but it seemed she struggled to foster positive relationships with others.

"But Dad, I didn't even extend an invitation to her for today's event." Luna had meticulously reviewed the guest list beforehand, making sure to familiarize herself with everyone attending the occasion.

It was essential for her to recognize the relatives and friends of the Shelbert family in attendance, as they might becvaluable connections for her in the future.

Upon reviewing the guest list and noticing the absence of the Lane family, Luna couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. After all, Mia's presence always seemed to disrupt her plans.

"Ms. Lane is a distinguished guest, invited bypersonally. A formal invitation wasn't necessary. Is there any concern about that?" However, Luna's inner objections persisted. Today held immense significance for her.

Whenever Mia showed up, her meticulous plans seemed to unravel. The sight of Mia earlier had stirred a sense of dread within Luna, fueling her desire for Mia to leave the event.

Despite her inner turmoil, Luna refrained from expressing her thoughts. After all, her livelihood still depended on Raymond.

But with Asher gradually solidifying his place within the Shelbert family and Raymond approaching his golden years, Luna saw a window for redemption.

Thus, she resolved to persevere, drawing on the endurance she had displayed over many years. With an opportunity finally presenting itself, Luna felt a renewed determination.

Swiftly altering her demeanor, Luna turned to Mia, saying, "I apologize, Ms. Lane. My words earlier were out of line. Please don't take offense.

"It's truly an honor to have you, the esteemed heiress of the Lane family, grace our event today. How could I not extend a warm welcome? was simply caught off guard by your presence." Raymond nodded approvingly at the scene before turning his attention to the other guests.

Approaching Luna, Mia gave her a light pat on the shoulder. "Well done. Your restraint was impressive this time. hope you can maintain this façade and keep your true intentions concealed in the future." S Luna's expression shifted uncomfortably at Mia's words. "What do you mean? What is it that you're after?" "Hey, why are you tense? Have you been up to smischief, fretting over the consequences catching up with you?" Mia teased before strolling away, paying no further heed to Luna. The day's real had yet to unfold, and Mia knew she wasn't the protagonist in it.

As Mia walked away, Luna couldn't shake off a sudden wave of unease.

Nonetheless, she couldn't quite grasp what else Mia might have in store.

After all, Jasmine had already been ousted from the family, and rumors swirled about Raymond's impending divorce from Alison.

If their marriage did dissolve, Luna and Asher would be the only ones left by his side.

Thus, it seemed plausible that the inheritance from Raymond would naturally fall into the hands of Luna and Asher.

Was Jasmine perhaps plotting something behind the scenes? However, it appeared unlikely.

As long as Raymond remained committed to adopting Asher, Jasmine's efforts would be in vain.

After all, individuals from families as proud and arrogant as Jasmine's would never abide by such a scenario.
