Chapter 316 Becomes a Joke
Camille’s expression was slightly solemn as she looked at Luke and said, “Go out and have a look.”
“Yes, Ma’am.” He hurriedly went to the front door.
The Hardwick family placed great importance on this family reunion banquet, especially Camille. She had found her biological daughter, and one she really liked at that. She was eager to let the whole world know.
She held Sarah’s hand and gently reassured her. “Sarah, don’t worry. People will come. Perhaps they’re stuck in traffic.”
A faint sense of unease crossed Sarah’s heart.
She smiled and nodded. “I understand, Mom.”
James sat in the living room, his face looking rather grim. He immediately called Sebastian. “What’s going on? Today is our family reunion banquet. Why aren’t you back yet?”
On the other end of the phone, Sebastian’s tone was indifferent. “I’ve already told you. She’s not my sister. You asked me to organize this banquet, so I did. But I’m dealing with some matters at the company. I’m hanging up now.”
With that, he hung up the phone directly.

He felt utterly humiliated.

The Hardwick family had been in Lanceser for many years, and they had many friends. Even if the higher–ups didn’t come, those who were on good terms with him should have.
Yet, time had passed, and not a single person had arrived.
James‘ face was unpleasant, and he couldn’t help but wonder if someone was deliberately creating trouble for him.
“Charlotte?” The name flashed through his mind, but he quickly dismissed it.
Arthur didn’t like Charlotte, and the Harrison family didn’t hold her in high regard as part of the family. She wasn’t capable of pulling off something like this.
So, what was going on?
The butler had already checked outside several times, but still, no car had arrived.
Camille paced anxiously back and forth in the room while Sarah’s face was pale, and she didn’t look well at all.
“Damn it, it must be that damn girl who is causing trouble!” Camille suddenly stopped in her tracks, standing still, gritting her teeth as she spoke through clenched jaws.

Sarah’s eyes flickered, her delicate face growing paler, and her eyes reddened as she said softly, “Mom, maybe you’re overthinking it. Mrs. Harrison isn’t that kind of person. Even though she isn’t your biological daughter, you still accepted her.
“She’s probably just holding a grudge against me. After all, I took her position as your precious daughter, and I also took away Arthur’s affection for her. It’s all my fault. Maybe I shouldn’t have come back.”
As she spoke, tears welled up, and she began to cry.
Camille couldn’t bear to see Sarah cry and immediately stepped forward to hug her. “Don’t cry. It’s her incompetence. It has nothing to do with you. If she did cause all this today, I will never acknowledge her!”
Sarah buried her face in Camille’s arms, sobbing quietly. In her heart, a deep sense of hatred boiled over. There was no doubt about it. She was sure that today’s incident was undoubtedly the work of that woman.
Who else, besides her, would go against her?
