In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 354

He glanced at me and uttered in a low voice, “Girl, now that you are the legitimate daughter of the Stovall family, you should call me uncle!”

I was stunned and said, “Uncle Zachery.”

He looked at me with an unpredictable gaze. “Girl, I know you still hold a grudge against Cam. But Louis had specially prepared this banquet for you today. You shouldn’t ruin it!”

I held onto the tall glass in my hands, and my face turned pale. So they knew about it?

I raised my eyes to look at him. I shrugged my shoulders and said nonchalantly, “As Uncle Zachery had mentioned, this is my own banquet. I can decide how I want it to be. No matter what, as long as I meet my goal, it would have achieved its purpose.”

Cameron looked at me with a sigh. “Nevermind. This is karma, Zachary!”

Looking at their unusual attitude, I couldn’t comprehend what was happening at the moment!

Was it because I became the daughter of the Stovall family, so they became hesitant and were treating me differently?

John stood beside me and was silent all along. He saw me frowning and went quiet. He said calmly, “What are you thinking?”

I shook my head and looked up subconsciously towards the people who were prepared on the second floor.

John saw my hesitation and said, “Actually, this is for the best. At least it’s not worse off.”

Worse?

The child and Macy had died. Rebecca only suffered from some injuries, but the rest had left my world forever. I couldn’t get them back anymore even if I tried.

That thought alone had made me calm. The people on the second floor nodded. There was a huge projection screen on the stage of the hotel lobby.

Two minutes later, the scenes on the screen had attracted the guests of the banquet. The Moore family had stood on top of K City for years. And Cameron’s fame was on par with the Moore family due to her success over the years.

Gasps were coming from the guests every time she appeared in the video.

I didn’t look at the screen since I wasn’t interested in what was playing. I was only interested in Cameron’s reaction when she watched these scenes.

But she didn’t seem as devastated as I thought she would be. Instead, she seemed to have prepared beforehand and leaned closely against Zachary’s embrace.

My brain was buzzing. In the noisy crowd, Zachary looked at me with an indecipherable look. It wasn’t filled with rage, neither was it bloodthirsty, but sympathy.

I saw him held onto Cameron and left in the crowd. But I didn’t feel any pleasure. I knew that after today, Cameron’s reputation was going to be in tatters.

My goal seemed to have been achieved!
