Vatching Eliza arrogantly walk away, Vivian was so angry she almost cried. “Cousin, look at her!”
Don’t worry, I’ll settle the score with her for you!” Medea was just as angry.
ut she was calmer than Vivian, knowing this wasn’t the time or place to retaliate, so she could only swallow her anger.
With Medea’s words, Vivian felt a little better.
When Eliza returned, Grayson looked at her with a subtle smile, clearly in a good mood, and his expression softened involuntarily. “You didn’t drink, right?”
No.”
1 the past, whenever Eliza attended such occasions, she would always have to drink.
ut since she came with Grayson today, most people didn’t dare to ask her to drink. Plus, she had to drive Grayson later, so she didn’t touch a drop of alcohol night.
y now, the wine party had entered its later stages, and some people were starting to leave.
Then Grayson took Eliza to say goodbye to the host, Calvin arrived.
e wasn’t wearing a suit, so it seemed he had come to the party on a whim.
edea’s mood improved when Calvin appeared. After all, the one who could back her up had arrived!
ven Vivian was puffing out her chest, bustling around with the two of them.
fter Calvin arrived, Medea once again became the center of attention, and even more than before.
eople eagerly came to talk to her, and she regained her sense of superiority, looking at Eliza with an intentional air of pride.
‘hen Eliza didn’t look at her, Medea turned to Calvin. “Calv, Uncle Young is here too. Let’s go greet him.”
is time, Calvin didn’t refuse, and Medea was overjoyed.
ad.” Calvin called out to Grayson when he arrived, but his gaze lingered on Eliza for a moment longer.
his action made Medea subconsciously tense up.
Ickily, after a brief pause, Calvin moved his gaze away.
rayson didn’t even look at him directly, but asked, “Are you going back tonight?”
dvin paused before answering, “No, I just got back from a business trip. I haven’t even changed my clothes yet.”
seemed he had come straight from the airport. He probably knew that Medea had felt wronged at the banquet, so he hurried over to support her.
Then Grayson heard that Calvin wasn’t going back, he didn’t say much, taking Eliza and leaving.
rayson didn’t look at Medea once during the entire process, which made her feel quite uncomfortable.
alvin said to Medea, “Let’s go too.”
ledea didn’t really want to leave so early; after all, all the spotlight had been stolen by Fliza.
inally, when Calvin arrived, she was once again the focus of attention, and she wanted to stay a little longer.
he wanted everyone in Washington to know their relationship.
Chapter 127
However, considering that Calvin had just returned from a business trip and must have been exhausted, she tactfully agreed to leave with him.
At the door, Grayson ran into the business minister, with whom he had some connections, and stopped to chat for a moment.
Young Old Master is so fortunate; both his son and daughter–in–law are so capable. It’s truly enviable.”
Grayson paused, clearly confused. “Daughter–in–law?”
The one here, Miss Wynn. She’s been working with me on the port renovation project, and she’s quite capable. Plus, her academic background is mpressive–she’s a finance Ph.D. from WT Business School. Isn’t it enviable to have a top–tier academic background?”
The business minister’s tone was full of admiration. “Your son is a financial prodigy, and your daughter–in–law is a top–tier talent. The Young family is destined
or greater heights!”
The minister’s flattery made Medea feel very proud, and she looked at Eliza with a sneer.
Jut when she saw that Eliza didn’t react and didn’t feel inferior because of her titles, Medea scoffed inwardly.
liza was really good at pretending.
Did she think that by acting indifferent, it would mean she didn’t care?
Vithout talking about their family backgrounds, their parents, or their men!
1st her overseas Ph.D. degree was enough to make Eliza feel inferior for a lifetime!
t this point, Medea didn’t care about Eliza anymore. Now, she was more concerned about Grayson’s opinion of her.
he firmly believed that Grayson had ignored her before because he didn’t know about her academic background.
le probably thought she was just another woman trying to attach herself to Calvin.
ut now that the business minister had revealed her background, she didn’t believe Grayson would still ignore her.
The port renovation project is being handled by the business minister?” Grayson’s focus wasn’t really on Medea.
he business minister answered, “Yes, I’ve been overseeing it, and the chances of Everest winning the bid are high. Miss Wynn’s proposal is quite good too.”
ut Grayson just casually said, “I see, I have other matters, so I’ll leave now.”
e didn’t praise Medea, nor did he look at her,
Being that Grayson was about to leave, Medea quickly called out, “Uncle Young…”
this dose range, Grayson couldn’t possibly not hear her.
ut he chose to ignore her, allowing Eliza to hold his arm as they left.
e never looked at her the entire time.
ledea looked at Calvin with some grievance, hoping he would say something, but in the end, he said nothing, simply walking with her towards the parking lot.
Then they arrived at the parking lot, Eliza’s car was already there, and she was getting ready to leave.
ivian hadn’t gotten into Calvin’s car, she took a taxi and didn’t want to be a third wheel.
alvin’s car and fliza’s car left almost simultaneously.
ince it was so late and Calvin came to pick her up, they must have been staying together.
Vhen Eliza dropped Grayson off at the Young family home, Nancy was still awake.
Chapter 127
Hearing the noise at the door, she immediately came out to open it, and upon seeing only Grayson, she couldn’t help but ask, “Has Calv not come back yet?”
“No.” Grayson’s expression was cold as he leaned on his cane and entered the house.
