The next day, my grandfather and I attended the seventieth birthday banquet of Mr. Gus, the patriarch of the Gus family.
After my grandfather made an appearance, Mr. Gus Immediately called to warmly invite him.
Coincidentally, my grandfather had business to discuss with them, so he agreed to go.
When Mr. Gus saw us at the banquet, David Gus nearly fainted from fear.
You–you’re here?”
He stammered, looking at me.
I sneered twice and said. “As your betrothed, shouldn’t I be here?”
His eyes flickered nervously, but I knew exactly what he was afraid of
“Afraid your family will find out that Snow is just an adopted daughter?”
I sneered again.
With that, I turned to my grandfather, and we went to greet the guest of honor.
Mr. Gus was a great man. When he saw my grandfather, he eagerly embraced him and chatted warmly.
When he saw me, he was puzzled and asked, “Who is this?”
I smiled slightly and bowed respectfully. “Grandfather Gus, I’m Bella. I lived abroad with Grandpa for many years. It’s understandable if you don’t remember me.”
Mr. Gus’s eyes widened in realization.
“Wait, that’s not right!”
Suddenly, Snow Francis appeared from out of nowhere, dressed in a vibrant, showy outfit with a wide smile. She strutted over to us
“Grandfather Gus, I’ve come to wish you a happy birthday…”
Before she could finish, she froze in place.
David Gus, standing behind her, rushed over and pulled her away.
I told you not to come!”
David Gus was nearly driven mad.

Yesterday’s incident was a huge scandal, and no matter how low–key he tried to be, someone at today’s banquet had undoubtedly heard the story.
“Why–1 just didn’t want to miss Grandpa’s seventieth birthday!”
Snow Francis pouted, playing the victim.
I had been planning to expose the truth about Snow and David Gus, but now they were putting on a show right in front of Grandpa Gus.
I couldn’t have asked for a better opportunity.
“The truth is, Grandpa Gus, Snow is just my father’s adopted daughter. I don’t know why David Gus insists that she’s his real daughter.”
I shrugged nonchalantly.
Grandpa Gus’s chest heaved with anger.
“Old Norris, she even told me that you were living abroad, and I actually believed it!”
“I always treated her like my real granddaughter–in–law!”

Grandpa Gus was so enraged that he almost couldn’t catch his breath
I quickly poured him some water, and after he calmed down, I continued,
I’m sorry, Grandpa Gus. I came here today to tell you that if these two truly love each other, then let them be together.”
The betrothal between me and David Gus was something from the past, and I hope you won’t take it to heart in the future.”
I gave a cold glance at the two of them, the so–called ‘dog couple.”
David Gus’s face was filled with regret and fury..
Snow Francis still wor
lueless expression, as if she didn’t understand what she had done wrong.
“Miss Norris, can you hear me out?”
David Gus forced a smile.
I sneered at him.
“Of course.. I can’t!”
I looked at him with haughty disdain.

No matter what excuse he had. In my past life, he had helped Snow Francis fabricate lies, oppressing me until death.
For that alone. I would never leay.
, and nothing he said mattered.
1 was deceived by her! My mind was clouded, and I believed her lies! I’ve always loved you!”
David Gus’s words were full of desperation.
