Chapter 629 Introduce Her To The Industry
The following day, Olivia hosted a banquet at Hotel Van Hutton. She reserved the entire five-floor building and invited all the rich and famous from Tayhaven. Each of the guests showed up with their family members, and that was a great honor to Olivia.
As soon as all the distinguished guests took their seats, Owen and Olivia walked in gracefully. Smiling, Olivia announced, “Thank you everyone for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend this function. There are three things we would like to celebrate tonight. First, my son and daughter-in-law have rekindled their marriage, and they now live a blissful life as a family of three. Second, I’ve been blessed with a second goddaughter. Third, my daughter is tying the knot soon. I’m pretty sure that you know who my future son-in-law is. Yes, he’s none other than Noah Walker, the eldest son of Walker Group.”
The guests stood up one by one to congratulate the Clintons for their triple happiness.
Olivia was over the moon. The smile on her face never ceased, and she was in an exceptionally good mood.
“I’m going to keep you in suspense for a while before introducing my goddaughter.” Olivia chuckled.
A beautiful socialite teased, “You’re playing hard to get, aren’t you, Olivia? Where did you learn this from? We are dying to find out who is this lucky lady that has found favor in both your and Owen’s eyes. Come on, tell us now, and don’t be so cheeky! We can’t wait already.”
“People say that daughters are caring and sweet like cotton candy. She’s my newfound precious girl. Let me keep her with me longer before all of you try to snatch her away,” Olivia joked.
“What do you take us for, Olivia? Haha… You’re getting more mischievous as you grow older,” the other guests chimed in.
Owen and Olivia could not help but burst out laughing.
On the other hand, all eyes fell on Oscar, Amelia, and Tony the moment they made their grand entrance because the dolled-up family looked so gorgeous.
As soon as Olivia saw her beloved grandson, her eyes glowed with warmth, love, and an unmistakable twinkle.
She strode over to carry Tony. “Oh, my dear boy, you look dashing today! I nearly couldn’t recognize you.”
Tony pecked both her cheeks and said as though he was an adult, “Grandma, everyone is looking at us. You must take care of your reputation first. It will be awful if your hair looks unkempt.”
His cuteness melted Olivia’s heart. Logic and elegance don’t matter at this precious moment.
She truly loved this grandson of hers to the core, to the extent that she could do anything for him. For examples, forgiving Amelia and letting Oscar remarry her despite how resolute Olivia was in the past about these two agenda.
The guests were observing Tony. Some of Olivia’s good friends even came up to him and introduced themselves. “Hi Tony, do you remember me? I spoke to you at a party last time.”
Tony scanned them with a pair of big, rounded eyes. Then, he replied in a serious tone, “Of course I remember! All of you are pretty ladies, just like Grandma.”
Women were always flattered with sweet talks, especially when praises were sung by such an adorable child. They were so delighted to interact with him.
“Oh my heart! You’re such a cute darling. Tony, you’re very handsome too. I’m certain that you’re going to be a future heartthrob.” The socialites had only good things to say about Tony.
Proudly, he acknowledged, “That goes unsaid!”
His antics caused everyone to titter in glee.
All guests, regardless of gender, could not hold back from praising Tony’s wit. Olivia had been on cloud nine the entire night upon hearing all the wonderful comments about her grandson. They made her way happier than the times when she purchased branded handbags and designer clothes.
What greeted the Walker family when they appeared at the banquet was a scene where many were seemingly worshipping Tony.
A tinge of jealousy and disdain flashed across Isabella’s eyes.
She bit her lips real hard until she was reminded by Carol. “Keep your cool and dignity. This isn’t your house. Everyone here is influential, wealthy, and well-known in the industry. You can forget about marrying into one of those prominent families should they have a bad impression of you.”
Taking a deep breath, Isabella nodded. “All right, Mom. I know what to do, don’t you worry.”
