Vivian, along with a group of young ladies, turned pale.
If they thought before that they were "condescending" by coming here, giving Selena face, then the Turner Family didn't even have the option to refuse.
But when they saw the identities of the guests who had already arrived, they realized how much they had been humiliated.
This banquet, attended by the future leaders of the Riddle and Poole families, was not at their level.
The Turner Family only showed their grace by not kicking them out.
"But..." one of the young ladies gritted her teeth and said with some resentment, "Selena only sent one invitation..."
In other words, none of them, including everyone present, were invited.
Christ and Leon were also uninvited guests.
This implied that Selena didn't even consider them.
No one paid attention to her.
Instead, Vivian remembered the person who delivered Selena's invitation and said angrily, "Shut up!"
The young lady was silenced, lowering her head, too afraid to speak again.
Freddie stared at Leon and laughed, "Did you come here today on your own or at the request of the elderly?"
Leon smiled gently, "Does it make a difference?"
Freddie's eyes suddenly darkened.
The atmosphere seemed to freeze for a moment.
Does it make a difference?
No, it doesn't!
Even if everyone in the Riddle family is celebrating Penelope's birthday internally at the moment, even if Penelope is being favored by the Riddle elders alongside the twin dragon and phoenix, it doesn't change the fact that they don't have the right to inherit.
Leon and Hattie are the legitimate heirs of the Riddle family bloodline.
Unless Leon and Hattie both die, the Riddle family will always be led by this pair of siblings.
Hattie is still young, so there might be some room for her, but Leon is cunning, and the Riddle family's illegitimate children and adopted daughter won't be able to make him fail... Are you kidding?
This pair of siblings' attitude represents everything.
And they clearly came here today to be closer to Selena than to Penelope...
Suddenly realizing this fact, the group of young ladies who had been making fun of Selena just now turned pale.
Looking at it now, Penelope, who was celebrating her birthday in the Riddle family today, will become the object of criticism from tomorrow on.
Hattie looked at them uncomfortably, snorted coldly, and let go of Leon's hand. "Brother, I'll go find Selena."
Leon ruffled her hair. "Go ahead."
Hattie lifted her skirt and ran up the stairs, turning around.
