Gemma knew Ernest’s purpose of coming here -- he came here for Wendell. Although she couldn’t figure out what his purpose was, she knew it was the time for her to behave well.

Instantly, she smiled and said, “Ernest, I’m quite close to Uncle Wendell. Come one. Let me introduce you to him.”

Ernest agreed indifferently without speaking, picking up his glass.

The purpose that he brought Gemma here just because he wanted to know Wendell through her.

Seeing his action, Gemma was overjoyed. It seemed that she was helping him wholeheartedly tonight, Ernest must remember her kindness.

Immediately, she took Ernest’s arm gently and walked with him gracefully to the center of the hall.

“Uncle Wendell, happy birthday,” Gemma walked to Lord Wendell and congratulated him in a sweet tone.

Wendell saw Gemma and smiled dearly at her, his eyes full of surprise.

“Oh, Gemma, it’s you. I haven’t seen you for years. You’re so grown up and beautiful. I’m stunned! I almost couldn’t recognize you.”

Gemma blushed slightly. “Thank you, Uncle Wendell. You are way too exaggerated.”

“Uncle Wendell, I want to introduce someone to you,” she added.

Gemma turned to look at Ernest beside her, her eyes full of tenderness.

“Ha-ha... You are shy. I guess he’s your boyfriend, isn’t he?” said Wendell jokingly.

Then he looked towards Ernest. When seeing his face clearly, Wendell was in a daze instantly.

His expression changed dramatically and he asked in shock, “You... Are you...”

Ernest squinted slightly.

He was pretty certain that he hadn’t met Wendell before, but judging from Wendell’s expression, it seemed that Wendell knew him, or perhaps...
