Surprised, she immediately dragged her husband to greet Richard, “Mr. Shaw, why are you here?”
Mr. Shaw?
It stunned the Chapman family at once.
There seems to be only one Shaw family in Lake City. Is he who we think he is?
The Shaw family, like the Haddocks and the Nolans, was one of the most prominent families in Lake City.
The lack of competent successors led to the decline of the Chapman family.
Old Mr. Shaw was a respected figure, yet he basically stayed out of public sight. Nevertheless, he had a son who worked as the sole distributor of luxurious goods in the fashion industry.
In fact, the Shaws distributed all the luxury goods in H Nation.
Although Mr. and Mrs. Hunt were influential in the music industry, they were modest in front of the Shaws for the resources in the fashion circles.
After all, out of the five prominent fashion magazines, the Shaws owned three of them.
Therefore, Mr. and Mrs. Hunt would not want to see their music artists blacklisted by the Shaws.
Speaking of which, isn’t Hera Chapman, the lady of the Chapman family, blacklisted by the Shaw family before? It became a sensational story when all brands in H Nation blacklisted her.
Hence, Mr. and Mrs. Hunt looked conflicted.
Since we had lunch with the person who Mr. Shaw hates, what will he think about us?
However, Richard actually wasn’t aware of their thoughts and only felt that they looked familiar somehow. He had many acquaintances, he could hardly recognize everybody.
Despite that, he responded politely, “I was having lunch with my sister.”
“Sister?” Once Mrs. Hunt glanced at Ashlyn, who looked remarkably graceful.
She immediately added smilingly, “Your sister is indeed beautiful. She has the looks of a lady from a prominent family.”
However, she mistook Ashlyn for Teresa Shaw, the young lady of the Shaw family.
