Friday, at the Emersons' banquet.
Looking at the repainted gate of the Emerson Residence, Charlotte's heart was filled with mixed emotions.
She had left this place for five years.
Today, she donned the dress that Sheryl had bought for her. She put on slight makeup and let her long, silky hair fall loose behind her.
Being intellectual while still as beautifully sexy as ever, it is as though Charlotte had becanother person.
At this moment, the banquet had not officially begun, but their guests were already flowing in endlessly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFrom the looks of the situation, the Emerson family's status had leveled up in the short span of five years. Because of Anne's invitation card, Charlotte was able to get through the security with ease.
Upon entering the main hall of the banquet, Charlotte noticed that the decorations in the house had changed. It was no longer the Chinese-styled decoration that her mother had arranged herself.
Other than that, she could no longer recognize any of the servants that were scurrying in and out of the banquet hall.
Charlotte couldn't help but smile bitterly. After she left, the Emerson family had undergone major changes from the inside out.
'Are they that afraid of my return?' she thought.
While Charlotte was lost in her thoughts, Elaine quickly spotted her from the center of the crowd surrounding her. The bright smile on her face froze.
"I'm sorry. Excusefor a while" Elaine said to the people around her.
"How did she get in?" Elaine quickly found the butler and asked, while pointing at Charlotte.
"Madam, she is the second daughter of the Jane family. She has an invitation." The butler did not recognize Charlotte. Upon hearing this, Elaine frowned. It seemed that she had really underestimated Charlotte's methods. However, it would not be easy returning to the Emerson family.
An idea immediately popped into Elaine's mind.
On the other side, Charlotte's attention was focused on the huge poster that was placed in the center of the banquet.
On the poster, there was a little boy with a cute smile, along with a blessing posted on the side.
It read, "Happy Birthday, Alistair." 'Is this Timothy and Elaine's child?' Charlotte thought.
'My younger brother?' Charlotte was a little absent-minded. Looking at her little brother who was the sage as Sheryl, she did not have the heart to hate him.

The small commotion was quite loud that it caught the attention of the people around.
"It's fine, it's fine." Charlotte lowered her head while trying to leave the crowd.
The only reason she cto the Emerson residence was to retrieve her mother's belongings. It was not atalhhe intention to bump into any of the Emersons. However, the servant wouldn't stop apologizing profusely and blocking her exit. "As I said, it is okay. Would you please step aside?" It was unlikely for the staff to make such a silly mistake at a grand event. Something was off.
Charlotte was frustrated and couldn't help but raise her voice at the servant.
But just as she finished her sentence, with a microphone in her hand, Elaine filled the banquet hall with her voice. En Everyone looked up. "Dear all, I'm very sorry, but we may have to put today's banquet on hold."
"Why, you may ask? It's because there is a thief among us. Just now, e my red agate necklace was stolen." X
