A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 271

The young masters started whispering to each other. They were all wondering if this Lady Haley was currently engaged.

In their opinion, Lady Haley was not only beautiful, but she was also an heiress to a great amount of wealth.

"Haley, you haven't officially met these families, have you? Let me introduce to you, " Lord Nalan beamed.

Apart from Rosy and Devin, Linda indeed had no idea of who the others were.

But she could tell that those who were sitting around the head table were all elders of Nalan clan.

"This is your uncle Lenny."

"Good evening, Uncle Lenny, " Linda stood up and greeted Lenny graciously.

"This is your aunt..."

Linda politely smiled and curtsied in front of each family member that Lord Nalan introduced to her.

The moment Linda sat down, Rosy muttered, "How could someone be so impolite to let all elders wait for her!"

Linda smiled and ignored her.

But Rosy took Linda's silence as guilt.

She smirked and said in a louder voice, "You're finally here, Haley. Nobody dared to start eating while waiting for you."

Everyone knew Rosy was deliberately trying to make things difficult for Linda.

At Rosy's words, Lord Nalan pulled a long face. He snapped at Rosy before Linda spoke, "Are you that hungry?"

Being scolded by Lord Nalan, Rosy was too frightened to utter one more word.

"Grandpa advised me to get fully prepared. Sorry to keep you waiting, Rosy. If you are hungry, you can eat first, " Linda said in a tender voice, with a grin.

"Haley, I hope you can forgive Rosy's rudeness. She bears no ill will, " Devin said as he turned to Linda. It was not the first time that Devin had seen Linda, but he was still captivated by Linda's beauty.

Although Linda's face was covered with evident scars when he saw her the first time, he could tell that Linda was beautiful. His assumption was proved right.

Devin's words embarrassed Rosy even more.

Knowing there would be many young rich men of famous clans in the party, Rosy dressed up and wore heavy make-up to steal Linda's spotlight. But it turned out that she was the one being overshadowed.

Rosy felt angry and embarrassed. She pinched Devin's thigh under the table with all her strength to vent her anger.

How could her brother be on her enemy's side?

"Ouch! Rosy, what are you doing?" Devin cried in pain. He didn't realize that he pissed his sister off.

"Humph!" Rosy rolled her eyes and turned aside.

"Oops, I just forgot to introduce your cousin. Haley, this is..."

Before Lord Nalan could utter Devin's name, Linda said with a smile, "Grandpa, I know him."
