Chapter 334 Why Not Believe in Superstition?
The night scene in Northland had always been magnificent.
Angela followed alongside Jonathan as they entered the banquet hall.
It wasn’t her first time attending such an event; she had accompanied him to similar ones in Riverdon before. But this time, it was clearly different in Northland.
After the two of them appeared, not many people glanced their way. Occasionally, a few would look over, but after seeing them, they didn’t react much.
It’s a different experience indeed, Angela thought to herself as she linked arms with Jonathan.
Jonathan remained composed as ever and led Angela to sit down on the side.
Tonight’s banquet was a bidding banquet, but Jonathan wasn’t particularly interested in the bidding, so he didn’t even bring his assistant.
Just as they sat down, Angela saw a familiar figure.
“Why is she here?” She frowned as she looked toward the distant figure of Fanny, who was being embraced by a slightly rotund man, her smile appearing very insincere.
Jonathan followed Angela’s gaze and saw Fanny with the man beside her.
“The man beside her seems to be Dylan Leigh, the CEO of Leigh Group.”
After arriving in Northland, he didn’t take over all the affairs of the branch, but he had the employees of the branch compile information on the part of the company in Northland.
These days, he was setting policies and also getting to know the situation in Northland.
Angela whispered, “It’s fine. Just ignore her.”
She did indeed harbor some resentment toward Fanny, but as long as Fanny didn’t bother her, she didn’t intend to seek her out.
However, Fanny unexpectedly appeared in Northland. Could it be that she was following Christopher?
Before Angela’s confusion could be resolved, Fanny brought Dylan over.
“Angela, I didn’t expect you to come to this banquet too!” Fanny’s face was filled with joy, and

were the best of sisters.
Dylan also smiled and said to Angela, “So, you’re Angela. What a coincidence.”
Angela, with a hint of sarcasm, asked, “And who might you be?”
Dylan’s expression stiffened momentarily as he took a moment to compose himself before speaking, “I’m a friend of your dad’s. Fanny calls me Mr. Leigh, so it would be fitting for you. to address me the same way.”
“Okay,” Angela replied flatly.
Dylan was George’s acquaintance, but their relationship was distant. Angela had long severed ties with the Kins Family.
If Dylan had approached her alone, she might have responded with more warmth. But with Fanny by his side, Angela really didn’t have a good impression of him.
Though Dylan undoubtedly sensed Angela’s indifference and coldness, he maintained a smile on his oily face. He took a glass of wine from the waiter’s tray next to him and handed it to Angela.
“It’s been years since I last saw your dad. Now that I see you, let’s have a drink,” he said.
After all, this was her first encounter with him, and she harbored no strong feelings toward him.
“Your sister said you were obedient, but I didn’t expect you to show no respect to your elders,” Dylan said to her in a calm tone, expressing his disappointment.
Angela remained expressionless, She didn’t care about his opinion of her, especially since he was George’s friend. He had likely heard negative things about her from George, so she wasn’t surprised..
