The Swanson family was completely stunned, unable to react for a long time.

Someone couldn’t help but ask, “The top-floor party hall? Only diamond members can get a spot there. How did Nina pull that off?”

Another chimed in, “Isn’t it obvious? It’s all thanks to Ryan. How did Nina get so lucky? Ryan is totally head over heels for

her.”

Someone said, “Forget how Nina booked it, the real problem is the starting price for the whole top floor is 3 million, and the Swanson family has to foot the bill.”

When Nina’s elders heard this, their expressions changed instantly.

Linda burst out, “Nina, are you out of your mind? The minimum spend for the top-floor party hall is 3 million. Do you think our money grows on trees?”

She was totally fine with throwing a birthday party for Sarah, but dropping over 3 million on it? That was just insane.

The Swanson family had been on a downward slide for years, constantly losing projects one after another. They only recently secured a deal with SN Corporation, but the project wasn’t complete yet, and the payment hadn’t been received.

If they spend 3 million on this party, the Swanson family would be in a tight spot financially.

It could seriously impact the company’s financial situation.

And if the company suffers, Robert’s family would take a hit. Linda would definitely be the first to oppose that.

Judy frowned and said, “Nina, you’ve got Ryan backing you up, but the Swanson family doesn’t. You can’t just put your own pride above the family’s interests. Nina, you need to know when to stop.”

Waverly sneered, “She doesn’t know when to quit. She’s just trying to keep up appearances, showing off like she’s got it all. For all we know, she probably went behind Ryan’s back and booked the top-floor party hall under his name.”

After saying that, Waverly turned to Sarah and said, “Mom, you’ve never been one for vanity. How come ever since Nina came home, you’ve gotten so caught up in showing off?

“You’re supposed to be enjoying a peaceful life in your old age. Our family just isn’t in a position to enjoy the Grand Crest Hotel’s top-floor party hall. Don’t you realize that?”

Sarah’s face went pale with anger, and she was left speechless for a long moment.

Sarah knew deep down she was never meant to enjoy the top-floor party hall at the Grand Crest Hotel,

With a minimum spend of 3 million, it was a huge financial burden for the Swanson family right now.

Recently, James had invested almost all their money into growing the company.

The Swanson family was really strapped for cash.

”

Sarah thought, ‘But this is Nina’s way of celebrating my birthday: She just wants to give me the best.

‘I can’t embarrass Nina!’

So even though Sarah felt uneasy, she still followed Nina inside, determined to stand by her,

But now, being called out by her own daughter in front of everyone, Sarah felt both angry and frustrated, with no way to

fight back.

Nina shot Waverly a cold glare, the words “Are you looking to get yourself killed?” right on the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed them down, forcing herself to stay calm.

She thought, ‘It’s Grandma’s birthday today. Talking about death is just bad luck.’

Nina took a deep breath, tamping down her anger, and said calinly, “I’ll cover everything today. You don’t need to pay a

cent.”

Waverly sneered, “Oh, you say we don’t need to pay, so we don’t? That’s real convenient. But when you can’t cough up the money later, who do you think will have to pick up the tab?

“The Swanson family? What, are we supposed to be as shameless as you and just skip out on the bill?”

Nina’s face went cold, and the anger she’d just forced down caine surging right back up.

Before she could snap, Vivian suddenly blurted out, “Crap, the guests are here!”

Everyone whipped around to look behind them.

A few luxury cars pulled up at the hotel entrance.

Vivian’s face went pale. She didn’t even have time to argue with Nina anymore. She rushed over to Raymond and blurted out, “Can we cancel the party? There’s no way we can cover 3 million.”

At this point, she didn’t care about looking bad.

It was better to look embarrassed in front of Raymond than to be humiliated in front of all the guests.
