Female NovelOnce Brandon arrived, Korbyn, not wanting to be outdone, arrived with his wife and daughter. Naturally, his underachieving son accompanied them.
In the lounge…
As Rena was ready to entertain the guests, a waiter knocked on door and entered the lounge. “Miss Gordon, a Mr. Coleman sent you a gift. He mentioned that he awaits your presence outside.”
The waiter presented Rena with an exquisitely crafted box.
With a sense of curiosity, Rena opened il, revealing the pink diamond necklace she had previously pawned.

However, she was well aware of Lyndon’s intentions. He sought to exploit her mother’s memory as a means to beg for forgiveness.

Lyndon’s voice quivered slightly. “Rena, please forgive me.”
Rena remained composed.

Rena tenderly presented a check. Its value stood at two million dollars, triple the market estimation of the necklace.
Lyndon’s face turned pallid.

Lyndon’s eyes narrowed and he uttered, “Rena, whether you believe it or not, I loved your mother above all else.”
Rena cast her gaze downwards.
She had no desire to listen to or place trust in those words.
In the end, Lyndon departed hastily, without even glancing at the check she held out…
After Lyndon departed, Rena found herself in solitude for an extended period.
As she finally made her entrance at the party, all preparations had been completed.
Approaching her, Zack inquired, “Has that old man approached you once again?
