Chapter 56
Meanwhile, life went on in the Foster family
Emruly Foster was in an excellent mood. The table was piled high with gifts from Max Wilson. After a shower, she sat cross-legged on the bed and unwrapped the custom-made gown Max sent her last night
The sky-blue strapless dress had embedded crystals in the hem that sparkled under the light. It was elegant and beautiful.
The gown must have cost a fortune
Her cell phone suddenly rang, disrupting her self-absorbed moment.
“Hello”
The woman on the other end went straight to the point “Ill get someone to add something to the wine tomorrow Thank of a way to make her sleep with Max”
Emily gaped in shock. But Max is my-” She wanted to say that he was her boyfriend and that she would marry him and become Mrs. Wilson How could she let him sleep with that bitch?
The woman interrupted her. “Drem on! Do you think the Wilson family will approve of your background and let you marry Max? They are concerned you will ruin his reputation Have you been blinded by Max’s small favors and wwert talk The Wilson family is out of your reach! Don’t you understand I’m trying to help you, for crying out loud!
allow
Of late. Emily was almost sure Max would marry her, he was obedient as a puppy. He had taken her home several times too. However, the woman was telling the truth as well. The Wilson family was a prominent one in Athana. They would Emily to be part of the clan even if Max was a useless loser
Unless no woman in Athana dared to marry Max Wilson, it would be difficult for Emily to gam a foothold. Moreover, Max had no say in the family whatsoever.
Emily initially fantasized about marrying Max if she conceived his child out of wedlock. It would be a legitimate reason to become part of the Wilson family.
However, the woman interrupted Emily’s thoughts rudely. “Do you think you can marry into the family if you bear Max’s child: Don’t be such a nincompoop! The Wilson family is not short of descendants. In fact, Max might already have many children, legitimate or otherwise. The celebrities he’s been with were in the dozens. Have you thought about that”
Emily did not expect the woman on the other end to be able to read her inner thoughts.
She hesitated for a moment. “What should I do, then? Many people will be at the banquet. I’m afraid it’ll be challenging to spike the wine. Moreover, Natalie might not even drink it. That bitch is guarded and doesn’t touch anything in our family”
“You don’t have to worry about that. I’ll think of a way. Just keep your mouth shut!
“Miss Blackwell, why do you sound different?” Emily asked suspiciously,
“What are you talking about, Miss Foster? I’m just someone who hates Natalie; I’m not Miss Blackwell. Did you ask Miss Blackwell to help you get rid of Natalie?”
Emily was taken aback. “Oh, so you’re not Miss Blackwell. Then you’re-I didn’t.” She was at a loss and spoke in a daze
“You don’t have to be concerned about who I am. I have my agenda. You will benefit from it; just keep your mouth shut. The more you know, the faster you die. Do you understand?” The woman warned in a threatening tone.
Emily was so frightened that she hurriedly nodded, thinking that the person on the other end was Mia Blackwell.
She had sent Natalie’s photo to Mia Blackwell before and told her that Natalie was Trevon Wilson’s wife. Therefore, she assumed the other party was Mia.
But the woman denied that she was Min.
Then who was on the other end of the line?
Could she be the bitch’s enemy? Emily thought. Natalie had an unforgiving and offensive mouth, after all. She must have more than her fair share of enemies.
Emily was in a good mood after hanging up. No matter who it was, she had no objection as long as someone could get rid of Natalie. As for Max Wilson, the woman was right about his infamous reputation. Women from wealthy families would not go near him, let alone marry him. Ultimately, the Wilson family would have no choice but to choose her. Emily Foster, as his lawful wife.
It was just sleeping with a woman, after all. Max Wilson had slept with countless women before, so what if it was Natalie? Emily thought.
The following day at the Foster family’s banquet.

In addition, both men were lookers with attractive figures.
Catalie, do you think we look like mourners?” Sherri looked around her and saw men and women dressed in gorgeous outfits smiling away
Natale looked severe with a hint of wicked intent. Coupled with the black dress and white overcoat, she looked strange and out of place
“But that’s the effect 1 want” she said straight-faced.
sherri chuckled. Then she texted Hackett Blackwell while
staring at the entrance door in a daze.
The Foster family’s living room was large enough to hold right tables and accommodate nearly a hundred people
Everyone was already seated except for a table with three empty seats
When Natalie and Sherri entered the room, all eyes were turned to them. The were bare-facred and matched in black and white, causing the guests to whisper among themselves.
“Who are these women They are attractive young women, but why were they dressed in have any makeup on A guest commented.

“I think it’s rude to go against the norm. It’s a birthday party, for crying out loud, not a funeral?” Another guest complained.
“I know one of them, it’s Miss Blackwell”
“I think so, too. I remember her now She’s a doctor who broadcasted live some time ago. She’s a career
Emily’s face darkened when she overheard the whispers. She did not invite that bitch to come for compliments. She then put on a smile and walked to Natalie “Hey, you’re here. Take a seat first Moms party is about to begin.”
Elena Foster’s gaze turned to Natalie when she spotted the latter in the room. Her eyes filled with hatred, but she pretended to be enthusiastic for the audience’s sake. She ran over to greet Natalie. “Hi, you’re here Take a seat I thought you were not coming and told your father so
“Oh. Miss Landor is here too. Take a seat,” Elena greeted, but Sherri ignored her.
She did not want to come in the first place.
talie stood still and did not intend to move. “I didn’t want to come, but I can’t stand you threatening me with my mother’s ongings. But I have made an effort since you invited me. Here I am, but I’m not staying long Give me the things.”
Eleria was already unhappy when she saw the two women’s attires Today was her birthday party, for crying out loud. Why dad that bitch dress like she was attending a funeral? Natalie clearly wanted to provoke her on purpose.
However, she kept calm for the sake of her social status. “Take a seat first, Natalie. We’ll give you the things later, okay” We re busy now and don’t have time to do so”
Sherri sensed Elena’s reluctance to oblige, judging by her lame excuse. She almost flared up, but Natalie stopped her just in
Too many people were at the party tonight Natalie did not want her best friend to bear the blame for causing a ruckus.
Juana Landor would not leave Sherri alone if she found out later.
Emily whispered to Natalie, “You can leave if you don’t want your mother’s belongings, Natalie. No one is stopping you.” Natalie clenched her hands quietly and resisted the urge to overturn the table before her Instead, she pulled Sherri along and walked over to two empty seats.
Max was at the table; be looked at Natalie with lustful eyes as soon as she sat down and tried to chat her up. “Hey, Natalie, you look gorgeous!”
Natalie was disgusted and despised him even more. She could not understand why Emily insisted on marrying into the Wilson family, spending endless time and effort trying to win Max over
Natalie was sure that Emily knew about Max’s personality and reputation.
Getting Max involved was like killing two birds with one stone
Sherri did not overthink. She quickly stood up when she saw Max and changed seats with Natalie. After the two ocapped seats, Max could only look at Natalie from afar.
