Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 787 Slap in the Face! The implication is that the Turner family has long since declined, and everyone else present is only here out of respect for Osvaldo.

Moreover, although Christ's attitude is uncertain, the Shaw family is clearly here to make trouble for Selena! Even if the Riddle family is barely holding up the scene, tonight's banquet will certainly make Selena the laughingstock of the entire capital! Patrick's eyes were tinged with a hint of coldness as he calmly asked, "Is that so?" In the pause between her words, he looked up towards the direction of the entrance.

Vivian sneered, "Apart from Osvaldo, James, and Richard who are only here because of him, who in the capital would even remember the Turner family?" Selena is bound to be disappointed tonight! Thinking this, Vivian crossed her arms and looked at Patrick with a proud expression, following his gaze.

Just then, the doors of the hall were pushed open from the outside, and a group of people walked in, chatting and laughing.

When they saw the group of people walking in, Vivian's smile suddenly froze on her face.

The young ladies standing beside her couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

It was Lady Lauren, and besides her were seven or eight high society ladies.

War journalist Savannah Cunningham, charity ambassador Kayla Clarke, diplomatic queen Melissa Jordan... each one was a legendary woman in various fields of the capital.

Even if all the noble ladies attending the banquet at the Riddle family tonight were added together, they could not match the weight of one of these ladies.

Vivian's face turned pale and she staggered in place. Suddenly losing her composure, she rushed up to block Lady Lauren and forced a smile, "Madam, did you invite a few ladies to come with you?" Lady Lauren was taken aback for a moment, then smiled slightly, "No, | just happened to run into them outside and came in together with them." The blood drained from Vivian's face in an instant.

Melissa crossed her arms and looked Vivian up and down. A hint of scrutiny appeared on her cold face as she said, "Is this Callum's daughter? Why doesn't she look anything like her parents?" Melissa was cold-hearted and had been abroad for years, so she wasn't familiar with the socialites and debutantes of the capital.

As a result, this one sentence was simply devastating.

Vivian looked embarrassed.

Looking at Vivian's pale face, Lady Lauren gently said, "You misunderstood. This is the lady from the Shaw family, Selena should not have arrived yet." "No wonder," Melissa immediately withdrew her gaze, bypassed Vivian, and walked forward. "This is too far away..." Vivian's face turned pale again in an instant.

Before she could recover from this shock, a group of people walked in together from the door, led by two elderly people, one with a serious face and the other with a smiling and benevolent expression.

At the sight of the two old people, there was another round of exclamations on the scene. Almost all the young ladies couldn't stand steady.

"Isn't that the principal of Capital University and Mr. Jenkins from the fragrance industry? Why are they here?" someone asked.

"Selena is the champion of the domestic fragrance industry, so it makes sense for Mr. Jenkins to come, but why did Mr. Chow come?" another person wondered.

Patrick greeted them personally, "Mr. Chow, Mr. Jenkins." Mr. Jenkins looked around the hall and asked in a deep voice, "Where is the girl?" Patrick smiled, "Selena hasn't arrived yet." Mr. Jenkins immediately turned around and left.

Principal Chow said cheerfully, "I heard that that girl didn't want to come to our Capital University, so | had to come and invite her myself. The President of Creephia University and Mr. Newman personally called me, asking me to bring her over no matter what..." Patrick laughed and said, "Selena will come to register in two days." Mr. Chow patted his shoulder and said, "That's good. She has won the domestic championship for her mother in the fragrance industry. How can she neglect her father's specialty? Favoritism is absolutely unacceptable!" Vivian and the group of young ladies were all stunned.

If the group of ladies just now were at the pinnacle of the female circle, Mr. Chow and Mr. Jenkins were definitely the most prestigious figures in the country.

Why did the Turner family suddenly invite so many big shots to attend the event? Not long after Mr. Jenkins and Mr. Chow walked in, a slender figure walked in at the door.

Even Freddie, who had been expressionless, had a momentary change in his eyes when he saw the figure.

Christ narrowed his eyes slightly, and Leon seemed lost in thought.

The person was dressed in a black windbreaker, with both hands in the pockets of the coat. The slender figure stood straight like a white poplar tree, with pale skin, long and straight black hair, and gentle eyes. The temperament that was inadvertently revealed overwhelmed all the socialites present.

She smiled faintly, "I came without an invitation, please don't mind, Mr. Turner." Seeing the vice-captain of the Judicature Tribunal, Patrick was clearly stunned for a moment. "Welcome, Miss Wallace." Matilda nodded gently, "Lady Selena and | are old acquaintances. | should come to congratulate her on her return home today." In other words, she came here for private reasons, not representing the stance of the Judicature Tribunal.

Vivian immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But in an instant, she remembered that Matilda had never entered the doors of any noble family, yet she came to the Turner family just for Selena. That was enough to make people feel disgusted! Before she could fully relax, she saw Matilda take out a gift box from her body and hand it to Patrick. Her tone was gentle and she smiled, "This is a gift from my captain to Lady Selena. He is on a mission and cannot come in person, but when he returns, he will definitely come to celebrate Miss Turner.” Everyone present who heard these words had a change in their facial expression.

As a powerful force in the capital, the Judiciary is not controlled by anyone. The captain is also a very mysterious figure, and few people outside can see him.

Judging from Matilda's words, it was obvious that the captain of the Judiciary knew Selena and was extra friendly to her...

The Judiciary... are they openly declaring their support for the Turner family? Thinking back to the members of the Gallagher family and the Jackson family who were arrested before, everyone's facial expressions changed at this moment.

Patrick was also particularly surprised by this unexpected development.

He looked at Matilda, seeming to want to see deep into her heart through her cool and gentle eyes.

The Judiciary's attitude could bring protection to Selena, but at the same time... it could also bring danger to her! Matilda gently lowered her eyelashes and smiled, "Mr. Turner, you don't need to be so surprised. It has nothing to do with anything else, but the Judiciary takes it upon themselves to safeguard the safety of the people. Mr. Turner and Lady Nevaeh's daughter should naturally be treated well by us." Patrick smiled and accepted the gift, "Thank you, Miss Wallace." Matilda nodded and walked aside.

Vivian, who was standing next to the others, looked extremely unpleasant.

Although Matilda denied that the Judiciary was taking sides with the Turner family, Selena had ultimately gained the protection of the ruling power.

It should be noted that even though the Shaw family has developed rapidly over the years, they have never had any relationship with the military.

As soon as Selena arrived, she gained the protection of the Judiciary. How could that not make people jealous? At this point, no one in the room dared to say anything about the Turner family's banquet tonight.

A group of people stood stiffly, waiting anxiously. When they finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned around, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door again.

Everyone instinctively turned their heads.

When they saw clearly the group of people walking in, everyone present, including Leon and Christ, turned pale.
