Nora raised her eyebrows.Helen clenched her fists and asked hostilely, "What are you doing here?"

Cecelia walked over and sighed.

"I am here to give you a gift, of course."

She handed over the gift box in her hand.

"Thomas bought this handbag for me.I think it suits you well, so I'll just give it to you..."

The handbag that Thomas had bought for her...

Thomas had never bought her even a single gift during their three years of marriage! Helen became even angrier, and she felt like her heart hurt a little.

In the end, what exactly was her three-year-long marriage?! She clutched her chest and took a step back.

Jessica stepped in front of her and said, "Sorry, you are not welcome here."

Cecelia sighed.

"Jessica, you can say that we were close friends back then.There are only so many people in the circle.They may be divorced, but do the Stewarts really want to have a sour relationship with the Livingstones? I'm sure the people attending the birthday party today wouldn't want to see the two families fall out with each other, either!"

The people around them felt rather awkward at once.

For the sake of the Scotts, they were willing to attend the party, but if they were going to fall out with the Livingstones, then they would be unwilling to see that happen.

Cecelia's words seemed to force the people present into taking sides—in other words, forcing them to become enemies with the Livingstones.

To be honest, the Livingstones weren't scary.

It was the Hunts who were! Everyone glanced at Nora and then at Cecelia.

Nora was the Hunts’ future mistress, but Cecelia was part of the Livingstones, and the Livingstones were the elderly Mrs.Hunt's family.
