Chapter 716
At this moment, over at the Phil family, Sharon was cleaning up East Court with the servants.
Sharon felt rather unwilling. She was not a servant, Why did they always get her to do this? However, she did not have to clean the area herself, Instead, she stood at the side and supervised the work like a butler.
She was very unhappy. “Didn’t we clean this place a few days ago?”
“Ms. Sharon,” the servant explained. “That was just a simple cleaning, Mr. Walter will be here in two days, so we have to clean the area more carefully.”
“Got it.” Sharon was impatient.
She crossed her arms and strolled around the various rooms. She noticed that there were items for females when she arrived at the master bedroom
on the second floor.
There were also two sets of toiletries in the bathroom.
Sharon was shocked. “Is Mr. Walter bringing a female companion over?”
At this moment, the butler came over and explained softly, “It’s not just the female companion. Mr. Walter will be bringing his wife with him.”
“He’s married?” Sharon became even more shocked. “Why was there no
news of it?”
The butler shook his head, not looking pleased.
He originally did not want to talk about his master’s family matters, but Sharon was obviously not very smart. Sharon might cause some trouble if he did not explain it clearly and she made wild guesses.
He said, “I heard that Mr. Walter likes his new wife very much, so he hurriedly registered his marriage. However, Mr. Joshua was not very happy about that. He feels that Mr. Walter hadn’t told him about the marriage in advance and has been angry with Mr. Walter.”

At this point, the butler reminded Sharon, “Ms. Sharon, remember this. Don’t mention Mr. Walter’s wife in front of Mr. Joshua.”
Sharon nodded.
She had yet to recover from her shock even after leaving East Court.
She thought, ‘Heavens, that was really shocking news.’

She walked to the front hall in a daze. A group of juniors was chatting and laughing there, and they hurriedly greeted Sharon when they saw her. “Sharon, you came at the right time. We were just discussing that we’ll send Ian’s wife an invitation at night for a gathering.
“Everyone can get to know each other so we won’t feel awkward when interacting with each other.”
Sharon did not usually interact much with the members of the Phil family and would not express her opinion even if she did. Thus, all she did was smile and nod as she replied, “You guys can make the decision.”
“That means you agree!” A pretty girl clapped and looked around, then suddenly said, “If that’s the case, let’s make it livelier and invite a few celebrities to liven up the gathering.”
Then, Lucia turned to Sharon. “Sharon, you’re familiar with celebrities. I’ll leave the matter of hiring celebrities to you. Um, there’s that person called Kelly Sebastian. She’s not bad. She sings and dances well.”
Sharon clenched her fists tightly to suppress the anger in her heart.
She wanted to hit the members of the Phil family when she heard their tone. They were treating celebrities as clowns for their amusement. However, she admitted that her mood had improved after she witnessed Lucia’s disrespect for Kelly.
Her mood did not improve much, however. She thought, ‘What does she mean by I’m familiar with celebrities?’
Sharon looked down and only agreed after a long while. “Sure.”
“Thank you, Sharon.” Lucia had a nonchalant tone. She ignored Sharon

after thanking her and continued chatting with the others.
Sharon stood there for a long time, feeling like an outsider.
She wanted to leave, but she did not know what to say. Lucia turned around again and said, “I almost forgot. Sharon, you should plan the other matters too, such as the food, accommodations, banquet hall, etc. It’ll be more convenient that way.”
“Um…” Sharon was anxious. She did not have that much time.
She still had many things to do at the old residence.
“What’s wrong?” Lucia looked at Sharon in surprise and disbelief. “Don’t tell me you don’t want to help?”
Although Sharon was ambitious, she was timid in the face of a true noble lady like Lucia. She explained meekly, “I’m willing to help, of course. It’s Just that I still have many things to do at the old residence. I…”
“Is there a lot?” Lucia did not think much of it. “Aren’t these what
matriarchs of aristocratic families should do?”
Speaking of this, she looked at Sharon with a faint smile. “Are you not capable enough and can’t handle it?”
Sharon was stunned.
