Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 52

After a while, they arrived at Grand Manor

The three of them got out of the taxi, with Sherri and Natalie sitting in the backseat while Edward took the passenger seat.

After paying the fare, Natalie went to the trunk to retrieve the luggage but was stopped by a slender hand. Tll do it. It’s a bit heavy.”

In fact. Edward had more than just one suitcase. He had several boxes, but he had asked Kyle to send them home. This particular suitcase contained gifts for the two girls. It was a bit large and held some valuable items. Edward wanted to give the gifts himself.

Sherri walked up to the reception desk and presented her reservation confirmation message to the staff.

Shortly after, an employee guided them to a private dining room on the 8th floor.

“Edward, you’re back!” a woman exclaimed when she saw Edward. There was a hint of surprise in her tone.

Edward didn’t show much expression and politely exchanged greetings with the woman. “Yes, I just returned today.”

Natalie observed the woman for a moment. She noticed the woman’s designer clothing, immaculate makeup, and even the intricate patterns on her nails.

While Natalie didn’t know who she was, judging by her attire and manner of speaking, as well as her acquaintance with the Landor family, she was undoubtedly an heiress from a wealthy family.

From the tone of their greeting, it was evident that they were familiar with each other.

Natalie wasn’t materialistic and didn’t have a preference for designer brands. However, she had Sherri as her best friend, who happened to have a strong affinity for luxury handbags, clothes, and watches.

Her explanation was, “I’m just an ordinary person.”

Being exposed to it frequently gradually influenced her taste and perception.

It was similar to how someone could become knowledgeable in a particular field after being exposed to it for a long time.

Mia shifted her gaze to Sherri and Natalie. “Sherri, long time no see. I just came back a few days ago and have been busy, so I didn’t get a chance to meet up with you. Let’s have afternoon tea together sometime.”

Sherri replied. “I’ve been quite busy too.” She was indeed busy and didn’t lie, but Mia perceived it as an excuse.
