Chapter 308
In stark contrast to the quietude at Elspeth’s place, th
was buzzing with lifel
The hotel’s frontage was adorned with luxury cars, belonging to wealthy families and renowned figures
from the industry. Each person was dressed to the nines, adorned in jewelry, and worth billions a
gathering of tycoons and elite ladies.
Despite Emeric’s decision to keep Myra’s birthday bash low–key at her mequest, the Ashbourne
family’s reputation was not to be taken lightly. They had a burgeoning interest in developing in
Elmsworth, and who among the respected figures wouldn’t give Emeric some face?
Moreover, the big–shot also had a daughter who was enjoying remarkable fame lately!
Tonight, to avoid overshadowing Myra, Suri and Aviana didn’t show up in the main hall but were
entertaining their longtime friends upstairs.
They didn’t feel left out, rather they were elated to have such a rare, mlaxed moment.
Outside the hall, as Myra’s only daughter, Nydia was naturally busy helping her sister greet the guests.
She was wearing a light yellow chiffon evening gown that Evadne had personally chosen for her. Her
slender, white legs were faintly visible beneath the soft yellow skirt, sparkling dreamily, making her look
as beautiful as a leading lady in a romance .
She was truly grateful to her sister, knowing that Evadne had put a lot of thought into her outfit.
And yet, she couldn’t help but feel that Evadne, despite not trying hard to dress up and only wearing a
modest, off shoulder black gown, was still out of her league. Nydia stole glances at Evadne, completely

“Nydia, is there something on my face?” Evadne asked, fluttering her almond–shaped eyes at her
sister, who was standing there, dumbstruck. “No. No” Nydia flushed inexplicably.
“Are you tired? The party isn’t starting for a while. I can get you a room upstairs if you want to rest”
“No need, Evadne. I’m not tired!” Nydia quickly shook her head.
“Miss Evadne, the young masters from the Chambers Group have arrived!”
Jason, who had been greeting guests outside, rushed in, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
Seeing this, Nydia hurriedly pulled out a handkerchief from her evening bag, tightly clenching it in her
hand but not daring to approach him.
“Jason, look at you. You’re all sweaty.”
Evadne gave a meaningful smile, placing her delicate hand on Nydia’s slim waist, and nudged her
forward, “Nydia, you have a handkerchief here, go and help Jason wipe his sweat.”
Both Jason and Nydia were taken aback, their cheeks instantly flushing.
Nydia, clutching the handkerchief, awkwardly approached Jason.
She gathered her courage, raised her hand to wipe his forehead.
He quickly grabbed the handkerchief and hurriedly wiped his sweat, his heartbeat accelerating, “No
need, Ms. Nydia, thank you”
“No, it’s okay” Nydia bit her lips, feeling a wave of disappointment.
“Your handkerchief is dirty. I’ll buy you a new one later Jason said, looking embarrassed as he
pocketed her handkerchief.
“No need. Consider it a gift” Nydia said, forcing a smile.
Evadne watched, feeling frustrated.
Jason, usually so attentive and warm around her, had turned into an insensitive clod around Nydia.
But one thing she was certain of, these two definitely had something going on!
Right now, the Chambers Group had made their grand entrance
Of the four Chambers children, except for the third daughter who was abroad, the other three had said
they would come, yet Avery was nowhere to be seen.
Matthew, the eldest son, walked in with his wife Elva, followed by Byron.
Upon seeing Matthew, an updeen shadow crossed Evadne’s eyes.
“Evadne, long time no–see” Byron greeted, his eyes lighting up at the sight of Evadne
Her smile was light but not dismissive, “We met when you came to my house, Byron, it hasn’t been that
long. But it’s true that you haven’t seen my sister, Nydia, in quite a while”
She could tell that Byron was very attentive towards her, which she didn’t mind. After all, who wouldn’t
like a woman as perfect as her?
But she couldn’t stand the fact that Nydia, a daughter of the Ashboume family, was being treated like
air, ignored and neglected!
Caught off–guard, Byron didn’t recognize Nydia.
“Hello, Byron” Nydia replied, her smile warm,
Matthew, his face stoic, glanced at Nydia and Jason once, then said lightly, “Byron, you’re too
straightforward. You’re usually meticulous, but once you see the Miss
of the Ashbourne family, you only have eyes for her. That’s not right. You should apologize to Ms.
Nydia.”

Nydia smiled shyly
*Please come in Jason, please escort the young masters and lady of the Chambers family inside.”
Evadne instructed with a smile
“Yes, Miss Evadne.”

After the Chambers family left, Jason quickly returned to Evadne’s side, whispering.
“Miss Evadne, may I have a word?”
Evadne and Jason moved to a quiet corner of the comdor.
“Miss Evadne, Matthew’s lover, the one who humiliated Ms. Nydia that night, has shown up! She even
has an invitation and has already made her way to the private
area!”
With a furrowed brow, Jason asked in a deep voice, “Should I have her thrown out right away?”
“Thrown out? Why bother, she’s got an invitation. We don’t want to seem like we can’t handle a little
drama, do we?” Evadne leaned against the wall, her porcelain–like arms crossed over her chest, her
beauty comparable to a finely crafted sculptur
“That’s odd! I personally checked every invitation that was sent out, no mistakes, one per person! How
could that woman possibly have one?” Jason was perplexed “Oh, because I gave her the invitation.”
Jason gasped. “Miss Evadne, what did you say?”
“I said, it’s me, I invited that woman called Mia”
The curve of Evadne’s lips was as beautiful as a crescent moon, but her eyes sparkled with a fox–like
cunning. “There’s no better time than tonight to get some payback for my sister”
Jason was gobsmacked
