When she was told that the Qis would be at the party this evening, Linda's eyes widened. Surprised, she asked, "Does this mean that Amy Qi would be there?" Linda couldn't help but clench her fists; her nails dug into her palms.
She was completely numb.
"Yes."
Linda knew her grandfather threw the party to show how much he valued her.
"On the invitation, I introduced you as Haley Nalan, a long-lost daughter of the Nalan clan. I planned to tell everyone that you are Linda Xia, a part of the Nalan clan, but I changed my mind because I knew you wanted to personally seek revenge on the people who hurt you."
"I see. Thank you, Grandfather." Linda held her grandfather's hands tightly. The whole purpose of this party, the announcement of her being a Nalan, was a grand but sweet gesture.
Lord Nalan was capable of destroying the Qi clan, but Linda wanted to get back at Amy Qi herself.
Amy ruined everything she had, including her face.
She could have been looked worse, if it had not been for Anna. Still, she looked different now, so she didn't mind being a Nalan instead of a Xia for the time being.
"Linda, I understand your hatred. But remember to be rational with your actions. Don't act in haste, and take it step-by-step, " Lord Nalan said with one hand on Linda's shoulder.
He understood how Linda felt.
When he found out it was Amy Qi who almost killed Linda, Lord Nalan wanted to banish the Qi clan from SH City, but he thought of how Linda would feel. He knew that Linda wanted to take revenge on Amy on her own. He had confidence in his grandaughter. She was brilliant enough to get back at her rivals.
Lord Nalan wanted give Linda the satisfaction of doing it on her own.
"Don't worry, Grandfather. I won't act upon my plan until I've made sure that it's perfect." Linda smiled at her grandfather.
"I will always be right behind you. If you need any help, tell Nelson Li. He would be of great help."
"Thank you, Grandfather."
"Now, go and get ready. All of the SH City elite will attend the party tonight. It will be fun. I will get going, " Lord Nalan said.
As she imagined how tonight would go, Charles' face popped into her head.
"Grandfather, will the Mu clan come?"
"Of course."
After Lord Nalan left, Linda had an internal argument. Should she tell Charles the truth or not?
Would Charles Mu bring Lisa Xia with him?
Linda's heart raced uncontrollably whenever she thought of Charles Mu.
After all, she was madly in love with, not to mention the father of her baby.
Linda stroked her belly. She vowed to give birth safely and to let Amy pay for what everything she had done.
Linda had never meant to hurt her, but Amy needed to learn her lesson.
She not only ruined Linda's face but also threw her into the water.
