Chapter 71: His Attitude Was a Little Defying Towards Her

Grandma also sensed that something was wrong with Emily. She gently asked her, “Emily, do you
know Vincent?”



Emily, stunned, quickly snapped out of her thoughts.



Without waiting for her response, Vincent denied lightly, “No, we don’t know each other.”



His attitude was a little defying towards her; everyone could see that.



However, it was also true that Vincent, just like Hunter, kept a respectful distance between themselves
and women.



The way Emily was staring at him was like her eyes glued onto him, his behavior was normal.



Hunter's grandfather cleared his throat and said, his tone a bit cold, “It's almost time.”



He stood up.





As he stood up, except for the grandma in the wheelchair, everyone else stood up as well.



Emily knew that she was being impolite. However, a moment ago, she really couldn’t control her
emotions.



She was extremely happy. Other people could not understand this kind of excitement and joy.



“Emily, come push me!” Grandma didn't think much about it.



Every time Emily came to visit, Grandma especially liked to talk to her and get along. Even, Vincent,
who had just returned home, was thrown aside her.



Emily immediately walked behind grandma and pushed her wheelchair carefully.



Grandfather walked ahead, and Emily pushed Grandma's wheelchair behind him. As for Hunter and
Vincent, they walked at the end.





“So, this is your fiancée?” Vincent stared at the slender figure in front of him, his expressions getting
colder.



“Yeah.” Hunter responded, but did not explained any further about her.



“Do you really want to marry her?” Vincent asked again.



However, Hunter asked another question instead of replying, “Are you back for good this time?”



Hunter avoided the topic, which showed, he was still not sure if he was going to marry Emily after two
years or not.



As a result, Vincent's expressions became a bit relaxed.



“Yeah, I am going to stay here and follow your footsteps.”



“Not staying in the Jackson family?” Hunter smiled; he only smiled occasionally in front of his brother.





“Grandpa is going to skin you alive.”



“Is your skin still on your body?” Vincent's thin lips curled slightly, “if he wants to peel anyone's skin off,
you should be the first one.”



Hunter didn’t say anything after that. Soon, they arrived at the banquet hall.



The banquet hall was already full of people from the Jackson family. To know how big was the Jackson
family, one just needed to look at the ostentation.



Although many of the people sitting at the back were friends brought over by the younger generation of
the family, all of the people sitting in the front were from the Jackson family indeed.



Women accounted for the majority, men sat at the front few tables, the five whole tables at the back
were filled with women.



Naturally, Grandma sat with Grandfather. Besides them on the table, there were several gentlemen at
that table, as well as several sons of the eldest gentleman.





Some people were absent. Only the eldest gentleman, his two brothers and Hunter and Vincent were
there.



It was said that the fifth young master Porter Jackson was currently abroad and couldn't come back in
time.



At the table beside them, the sons of grandfather's two brothers were sitting.



And the table diagonally beside that one, was taken by the sons and grandsons of the two brothers of
eldest gentleman.



Every table, every seat, represented a different status.



In the rich and powerful world of the Jackson family, the distinction between status and position was
clear and rigorous.



Even if the number of people was not enough for a table, no one else could just casually join at the
table. This was the rule of

the formal banquet of the Jackson family.





The side where men sat looked a bit cold and cheerless, however, the women's side was lively and
excited.



There were so many women in the Jackson family, which made people feel dazzled.



When Emily came in, she was led by a maid to the first table for women.



There was Sarah, the eldest gentleman's wife, and his two daughters, the fourth daughter of the family,
Tabby Jackson and the sixth daughter of the family, Snowy Jackson.



After them, sat the two daughters of one of the brothers of the eldest gentleman and then the youngest
daughter of the other

brother.



Then, sat a person who Emily knew well as an acquaintance, that was Rosy Jackson, the one she met
today in the mansion.





Emily's seat was arranged besides Sarah, which could be seen as the second most important seat at
the table.



It showed that Emily's status was higher than that of the two daughters of the family.



She was just the fiancée of Hunter Jackson but she already sat in such a high position even before she
officially married in the family.



Not to mention the other women sitting at the table, they all felt a bit offended.



Emily still hadn't entered the family officially and this was happening. In the future, with Hunter's status
in the family, even Sarah was going to have to give up her status for Emily.



However, Sarah didn't seem to care much about all this. Seeing Emily coming, she laughed softly,
“Emily, let's have a look at the menu tonight.”



She took the menu from the maid and handed it to Emily herself.





“Look and see if there's something you don't like; I'll have it replaced immediately.”



In order to show her respect, Emily looked at the menu carefully for a while before shaking her head, “I
like it all.”



“Good.” Sarah returned the menu to the maid, then looked at everyone and said, “This is a Hunter's
fiancée, the second lady of the Gale family, Emily Gale.”



Nobody spoke.



Of course, Hunter could not be offended, but Emily was so ugly that no one believed that hunter would
like her.



For a woman like Emily who was not even pretty enough to be loved, why would the rich spoiled ladies
be willing to win over

her favor.



Seeing everyone's cold and indifferent attitude towards Emily, Rosy was relieved.





Rosy was thinking: It seemed to her that Emily really had no status in the family, but because of the
relationship between her

and Hunter, everyone was being polite.



The reason why she could sit on that table was also because of Hunter's status.



That day, she offended Hunter, not because he really loved Emily, but because of Venessa that idiot's
fault.



Venessa, to Hunter's face, said that the man behind Emily must be some rotten old rich man. Of
course, Venessa angered

Hunter.



Oh! How much longer was that ugly monster going to keep her pretentious little smile.



She was so ugly, sooner or later, Hunter was going to leave her.





Rosy was sure that when the time came, Emily would want to die of shame.



Seeing that everyone was so cold and indifferent towards Emily, Sarah took the initiative to look at
Tabby and Snowy and said, “Tabby, Snowy, call her sister-in- law.



“Aunt Sarah, it is not suitable!” Snowy flitted a light smile at her and said, “She hasn't officially married
into our family yet. How

can you tell me to call her with those words?”



Tabby, who was two years older than Snowy, didn't dare to say anything. She merely pretended that
she didn’t hear Sarah and continued to chat with Rosy.



Sarah felt a little embarrassed. Neither of them was her own daughter, so it was hard to scold them for
her.



Emily could see that the eldest lady of the Jackson family had no dignity in front of her children.



Being a stepmother was hard, especially in such a big family.





In order not to embarrass Sarah, Emily could only take initiative in greeting the girls, “Tabby and
Snowy, right? Hi, I am Emily.”
