The Cricton residence in Antaria sat on a vast seaside villa area with more than 300 villas stretching as far as the eye could see. This was the home of the Cricton family and its many branches.
They were a family with deep roots and intricate connections, reminiscent of an old tree with entwined roots. Today, many of the family's younger members had gathered at Tatiana's private villa.
"Tatiana, tomorrow is your big day. Congratulations!" said a beautiful young girl. She smiled sweetly as her large, black, gem-like eyes shone with sincerity.
Tatiana responded with a smile, "Delilah, I see youβve been working on your acting!"
Her grandfather had five brothers, and Delilah was the granddaughter of the fifth brother. Out of everyone in the Cricton family, Delilah was the least sincere about wishing Tatiana well. Beneath her innocent and cute exterior lay a heart full of pretense and deceit.
Hearing Tatiana's sarcastic comment, Delilah's eyes suddenly reddened. "Tatiana, how can you say that about me? I truly wish you well!"
Her pitiful look made her the object of sympathy.
"Tatiana, you're being too harsh. Yesterday, Delilah even went to a jewelry store and ordered a pair of bracelets worth 800,000 to give you as a wedding gift," scolded another relative as they frowned at her.
Tatiana glanced sideways and retorted sarcastically, "Wow, Delilah, I havenβt seen you for a few days and you've already found yourself a new lapdog?"
"Tatiana, watch your mouth!" Devin's expression darkened as he stared at her. He was Delilah's childhood friend, and their mothers were as close as sisters, which gave him access to the Cricton family estate.
Despite his fear of Tatiana, he could not stand to see his childhood friend insulted.
With a swift slap, Tatiana struck Devin across the face. Her tone was icy as she said, "How dare you speak to me like this?"
