Chapter 739 The Protagonist Tonight

"Wow! Are you still my cousin? Why don't you look like the same as before?"

"According to my preliminary judgment, she is your cousin!" Derek rolled his eyes at him and despised
his exaggerated acting skills. "Although she does surprise me, she must be the same!"

Raising his hand to give a punch to Derek, Leo smiled happily. "It's natural that my cousin is beautiful. I
don't need you to tell me what to do!"

Then he turned around and looked at Hester with a smile, which was a little creepy.

"Of course Hester is the best person in the world and deserves better love!"

Hester trembled and touched her chin, feeling that he acted to strangely. She raised her hand and
touched Leo's forehead, but didn't feel anything wrong. Was he hit?

"Don't doubt it. He's just too excited," said Derek coldly, looking at the man who had laughed like an
idiot. He couldn't bear to touch his forehead.

"Excited?" Hester didn't understand what he was excited about. Was it related to the dinner party
tonight?

"We are leaving now. You change your clothes and go to see grandpa!" Leo held Hester in his arms
and patted her on the back. His eyes were filled with tears.

He was so happy!

Looking at Hester's back inexplicably, Hester only felt creepy. She frowned and thought for a while, but
finally she didn't know what to do.



Following Leo's instructions, Hester changed her clothes and went to look for her grandfather. Her feet
were covered with a long dress. She was not used to it, so she had to walk quickly with holding the
corner of her dress.

"Miss Hester, please slow down!" Seeing that Hester was out of breath, the old butler hurried forward
and persuaded her. If the she was injured, how could he explain it to the master!

"I'm fine! I'm just not used to this dress!" Hester smiled sheepishly and raised her hand to roll up her
scattered hair behind her ears. A pair of round and full pearls set off her earlobes, making her petite
and cute.

"I saw a lot of cars outside. The guests have arrived. It's the first time that I've attended the party as a
member of the Liu family. If I'm late, it will leave a bad impression!"

Although she didn't understand why her grandfather asked her to dress up, she was still her mother's
family. She couldn't lose face!

"The master has just taken the medicine. He can't go out until he feels better. You can go in and have a
talk with him!" The butler smiled kindly, opened the door and said softly.

The decoration was still antique. Hester reached into half of her body and smiled at the old man on the
sofa. "Grandpa!"

The crisp words made Edmund smile instantly. He raised his hand and patted the seat next to him,
indicating her to sit next to him.

Hester walked over obediently and sat down beside him. Then she put the water on the table in his
hand. "Grandpa, you have just taken the medicine. It must be bitter in your mouth. Drink some water to
moisten your throat!"



Edmund took it over with a smile, and his eyes flashed a trace of darkness. If Rosemary were here,
would he be happier today?

"I've been used to this taste for so many years. I don't think it's a hard question." As he spoke, he
turned around, looked at Hester up and down, and nodded with satisfaction. "It's your first time to show
up today. Are you nervous?"

"Of course." Hester lowered her head, looking a little depressed. "I've never attended such a grand
banquet since I was a child. I'm so nervous that my palms are sweating!"

"Silly girl!" A hint of pity flashed through Edmund's eyes. He hoped that he could hold her hand as
much as he could. "This is the first time you appear as a member of the Liu family today. The more
grand it is, the better. Don't be nervous. This is our place. If anyone dares to say no to you, I will let him
out immediately!"

"Ha ha!" Hester was amused by his words. She didn't wear any makeup before, so she blinked her
eyes uncomfortably. "With grandpa's support, I don't need to be afraid."

"That's for sure. As a member of the Liu family, you never need to look at others' faces. You have to
remember this, and always remember it."

Hearing this, Hester's eyes were slightly wet. Although her grandfather's appearance was a little
blurred in her memory, it still couldn't affect him in her heart.

"I know, grandpa!"

On the other side, the main house of the Liu family was also the venue for the dinner party. It was
usually quiet, but tonight it was exceptionally glorious.



The servants had been busy for less than a week, so it was pleasant to see that the place had changed
a lot. Standing by the window and looking at the group of people below, Hester actually had a sense of
panic, as if something was about to happen, making her restless.

"What's wrong?" Looking at Hester's pale face, Edmund asked worriedly. Now no one could compare
with his precious granddaughter.

"If you don't feel well, have a good rest tonight. You don't have to attend the dinner party."

"How can I?" Hester said with a faint smile of helplessness. Although she didn't know what her
grandfather was up to, she had a vague feeling that the dinner party tonight had something to do with
her.

"Tonight is the first time I show up as a member of the Liu family. In order not to embarrass my mother,
I must behave well!"

"Who dares to say that my granddaughter is humiliated? I won't let him go!" After throwing these words
domineeringly, he took his walking stick and looked at Hester with a faint smile. "Are you ready?"

Hester was not used to such caution all of a sudden. She took a deep breath, pulled her lips upward
and nodded hard. "Yes, I'm ready."

The two floors were winding, covered with thick red carpet, mysterious and noble. Edmund and a
young woman slowly walked over. The two of them walked over with smiles on their faces.

It was her! Terence felt a lump in his throat and an indescribable feeling. He had been looking for her
for such a long time, but it turned out that she was the granddaughter of the Liu family. This result was
ridiculous.



Under the gaze of everyone, Hester stood on the stage with her grandfather. She looked straight
ahead, trying to think of nothing.

'Calm down! Hester, you must hold on for mother's sake! Grandpa is getting old, and he has been very
sad about mother. You must make up for her!' she thought.

One was her mother, and the other was her father. As their daughter, she had to bear the responsibility
with all her might.

"As you can see, this is my granddaughter, the protagonist tonight!"
