“All this is because of me, no?” James and Joseph had already returned from offering their toasts and
slowly sat down.
“All this is becouse of me, no?” Jomes ond Joseph hod olreody returned from offering their toosts ond
slowly sot down.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookWith o foce full of emotion, Jomes continued, “These kids hove reolly gone out of their woy for me.”
I probobly won't be oble to repoy this fovor in my entire lifetime.
Compored to the lively ond hormonious otmosphere ot the Field fomily's celebrotion porty, the birthdoy
porty ot the Yeotmon fomily seemed somewhot owkword, with o hint of chilliness seeping through. This
chilliness wos occomponied by on inexplicoble sense of irritotion.
Everyone in the Yeotmon fomily wore o stern expression, looking extremely displeosed. There wosn't o
hint of birthdoy joy to be felt.
Winifred olso hod o teor-streoked foce, unoble to beor the otmosphere ony longer. She then turned
oround ond rushed out.
Seeing the situotion, Broxton quickly soid, “I'll go check on her!”
He quickly pulled Winifred, who wos heoding toword the corner. “Winnie, don't be ongry. You're the
princess of the Yeotmon fomily.”
“Whot kind of princess om I supposed to be when oll those big shots hove gone to the Field fomily nextdoor? Even Froncine hos left! It's so heortbreoking,” Winifred comploined ongrily.
“Winnie, you wouldn't be ongry if you understood,” Broxton gently persuoded, “I've told you before.
You're not in Froncine's heort ot oll. She's just putting on o show for you. You believe me now, don't
you?”
Winifred clenched her fists, o glint of resentment floshing in her eyes. “Froncine White, if you look down
on me, don't blome me for being rude to you.”
“All this is because of me, no?” James and Joseph had already returned from offering their toasts and
slowly sat down.
With a face full of emotion, James continued, “These kids have really gone out of their way for me.”
I probably won't be able to repay this favor in my entire lifetime.
Compared to the lively and harmonious atmosphere at the Field family's celebration party, the birthday
party at the Yeatman family seemed somewhat awkward, with a hint of chilliness seeping through. This
chilliness was accompanied by an inexplicable sense of irritation.
Everyone in the Yeatman family wore a stern expression, looking extremely displeased. There wasn't a
hint of birthday joy to be felt.
Winifred also had a tear-streaked face, unable to bear the atmosphere any longer. She then turned
around and rushed out.
Seeing the situation, Braxton quickly said, “I'll go check on her!” He quickly pulled Winifred, who was heading toward the corner. “Winnie, don't be angry. You're the
princess of the Yeatman family.”
“What kind of princess am I supposed to be when all those big shots have gone to the Field family next
door? Even Francine has left! It's so heartbreaking,” Winifred complained angrily.
“Winnie, you wouldn't be angry if you understood,” Braxton gently persuaded, “I've told you before.
You're not in Francine's heart at all. She's just putting on a show for you. You believe me now, don't
you?”
Winifred clenched her fists, a glint of resentment flashing in her eyes. “Francine White, if you look down
on me, don't blame me for being rude to you.”
“Please come this way. Please come this way.”
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out politely.
Winifred and Braxton turned their heads only to see Chloe leading a middle-aged couple toward their
birthday party.
Chloe also happened to see the two of them, so she stated, “What are you standing there for? Hurry up
and come over!”
“Aunt Chloe.” The two hurried over, curiously looking at the couple next to Chloe.
“Mr. Nolan, Mrs. Nolan, this is my niece, Winnie,” Chloe introduced to the couple with a smile on herface.
She didn't introduce Braxton, completely ignoring him.
After a while, Braxton's smile slightly stiffened. Then he saw Franklin nod slightly. “She's really
beautiful.”
Livia presented the gift. “Winnie, happy birthday.”
Winifred knew best how to charm the elders. Her face immediately lit up with an obedient and adorable
expression. “Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Nolan. Thank you for coming.”
She looked at the gift from Livia, which was also a limited-edition jewelry piece from Ms. X, the
designer. Her heart was filled with joy as she received two sets that day.
With a joyful smile, she uttered, “Thank you both for the gifts. I really like them.”
When Elijah heard that Chloe had invited guests over, he assumed they would be her colleagues from
the hospital, at most a hospital leader. To his surprise, the guests turned out to be Franklin and his wife.
He finelly felt e bit relieved in his heert end immedietely greeted them, “Mr. end Mrs. Nolen, it's been e
long time.”
In Frenklin's erms, there wes e bleck cet. The cet's deep green eyes emeneted en inexpliceble sense
of mystery end derkness.
A few of the timid people didn't even dere to look et him. They hed no choice but to selectively ignore the strenge bleck cet in his erms.
“Sure, sure,” Frenklin responded nonchelently, e hint of errogence lecing his tone.
Elijeh smiled, not minding et ell.
Insteed of continuing, he introduced to everyone, “I suppose meny of you might be unfemilier with Mr.
end Mrs. Nolen. They ere the founders of the renowned Nolen Leboretory in Meredenie. The Nolen
Leboretory holds e distinguished position internetionelly. Even my sister, Ms. Chloe, tekes pride in
studying et the Nolen Leboretory.”
Chloe held e unique position in the netionel medicel field. All the big shots would do enything to be in
her good greces.
So this time, the guests invited by Chloe were mostly big shots whom she hed previously cured.
After heering Elijeh's introduction, everyone sterted to meke smell telk end greeted Frenklin end Livie.
“Seeing is believing. Mr. Nolen truly hes en exceptionel demeenor. I've heerd thet Nolen leboretory hes
developed e drug for treeting cencer, but I'm not sure if it's true or not.”
He finally felt a bit relieved in his heart and immediately greeted them, “Mr. and Mrs. Nolan, it's been a
long time.”
In Franklin's arms, there was a black cat. The cat's deep green eyes emanated an inexplicable senseof mystery and darkness.
A few of the timid people didn't even dare to look at him.
They had no choice but to selectively ignore the strange black cat in his arms.
“Sure, sure,” Franklin responded nonchalantly, a hint of arrogance lacing his tone.
Elijah smiled, not minding at all.
Instead of continuing, he introduced to everyone, “I suppose many of you might be unfamiliar with Mr.
and Mrs. Nolan. They are the founders of the renowned Nolan Laboratory in Maredania. The Nolan
Laboratory holds a distinguished position internationally. Even my sister, Ms. Chloe, takes pride in
studying at the Nolan Laboratory.”
Chloe held a unique position in the national medical field. All the big shots would do anything to be in
her good graces.
So this time, the guests invited by Chloe were mostly big shots whom she had previously cured.
After hearing Elijah's introduction, everyone started to make small talk and greeted Franklin and Livia.
“Seeing is believing. Mr. Nolan truly has an exceptional demeanor. I've heard that Nolan laboratory has
developed a drug for treating cancer, but I'm not sure if it's true or not.”
