Before Richard could finish talking, Jonathan slammed his cup on the table.
Shocked, Richard did not dare to say a word after that.
Although Jonathan was just a warrior, Richard knew that he could not fight him.
Opposite them, Sasha was busy feeding Vivian some shrimps, so she did not notice the situation.
“Mommy, it tastes so good! I’ve never tried this before. I want more!”
“All right.”
Sasha smiled and patted Vivian’s nose before she continued feeding her daughter with more shrimps.
In truth, Vivian had eaten shrimps before. As the precious daughter of the Hayeses, she had certainly eaten all kinds of good food.
What she meant to say was that she had never tasted shrimps cooked in such a manner before.
All the dishes of Chartreuse Heritage Kitchen tasted good.
Matteo and Ian felt the same way as well as they happily dug into all the appetizing food.
“Look at them! They look like they’ve never eaten good food before. They’re stuffing themselves like pigs at such a grand party!”
“That’s true! Where did the Jadesons get such an embarrassing granddaughter-in-law?”
“There was no choice. They just recently found Shin’s son and brought him back. He already had a family at that point, so Old Mr. Jadeson had no choice but to accept her.”
“Oh, right! I forgot about that.”
Everyone started to talk about Shin, who had passed away so many years ago.
Upon hearing that topic, the people who were already jealous of Sasha’s sudden rise in status looked down on her even more.
The Jadesons was the most reputable family in Jadeborough.
Many women dreamed of marrying into the Jadesons. Even prominent families wanted their children to marry one of the Jadesons. They clearly could not accept Sasha, a woman who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
“Where’s Mr. Devin?”
“He’s coming. I heard that he went to pick someone up.”
“Really? Who?”
“Probably Shanae Woods.”
When the name was mentioned, everyone in the hall gasped in shock.
Countless people looked on with bitter jealousy.
Shanae Woods was the most outstanding granddaughter of the Woodses. She was beautiful and talented. Despite being in her early twenties, she was well-known for being top in class. Not only that, but she was constantly on television representing the country in various competitions.
All in all, Shanae was the top socialite of Jadeborough.
Even better, the Jadesons were delighted because Shanae was not blood-related to Jasmine. Shanae was the true descendant of the Woodses, unlike Jasmine, who was from one of the minor branches.
Devin’s parents had certainly ordered him to pick Shanae up.
Sasha was oblivious about that, but she sensed that someone was staring at her. Who’s that?
She lifted her head and saw Jasmine.
“Eat more, Sasha. If you like the food, I can have someone send some of the food to Oceanic Estate next time for you,” Jasmine said as she smiled.
Sasha furrowed her brows while looking at her. Something is wrong with this woman. What’s she secretly plotting?
Immediately, she became vigilant.
While everyone was eating, someone arrived at the entrance of the hall. At that moment, all of them turned to look in that direction after they heard some exclamations.
Even Jonathan turned to look while he was drinking his tea.
A beautiful and tall girl was standing there in a long beige dress. Her face appeared pure and attractive. With all the expensive jewelry, she looked extremely elegant, like a princess.
Shanae had finally arrived.
Devin was standing right beside her.
Jasmine was delighted to see them and quickly approached them. “Shanae, you’re here. Come sit over here with me.”
She pulled Shanae’s hand toward her table.
When Shanae arrived at the table, there was a sharp contrast between her and Sasha.
Sasha was wearing a red dress with her hair tied into a bun. She appeared mature with that look. Not only that, but the jewelry Janice had chosen for her was also made from jade.
Yet, when Shanae walked over in her beige dress while wearing diamond accessories, Sasha looked like someone from an older generation.
“Look at that. Sasha Wand looks so ugly beside Ms. Shanae.”
“That’s true. She’s so old-fashioned. Look at how she dressed up. Such a waste of money!”
“You have a point!”
In an instant, everyone started insulting Sasha.
When Devin walked over and heard all those insults, he looked in the direction of the main table before his face fell.
