Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 98

Bella hadn't expected the Mercer men to be so generous over the small incident at the conference.

The diamond set she received was incredibly valuable, and the emerald set her mother was wearing, crafted from old-mine, glass-like jadeite, was even more precious.

To think that these treasures, once belonging to Lillian's mother while her own mother couldn't even touch them, were now in their hands. Any lingering resentment Bella felt instantly vanished.

In the future, she would take everything.

At Halfridge Villas, Lillian had barely walked in the door when Leonard arrived with an invitation.

"What's this?"

"A product launch reception for tomorrow night."

Lillian took the invitation from Leonard and frowned. "I just got back from a banquet. Why is there another reception so soon? Besides, I can't drink."

She was on medication and had to abstain from alcohol.

Leonard replied, "You don't have to drink at a reception, but now that you're running your own company, attending these industry events is necessary.

This company sent it to your office personally after you went into that private dining room tonight."

Lillian opened it and read.

It was an invitation to a product launch reception for Nexora Technologies.

Nexora Technologies was one of the top-ranking companies in the industry.

From what Leonard said, it seemed her fledgling company hadn't even been on their original guest list.

They only extended an invitation after seeing that she had powerful connections.
