Chapter 686 Birthday Present 2
Even if it was to curry favors, everyone praised the three children. Amidst the praise, Mrs. Livingstone’s words were
especially striking.
Everyone looked at her in unison.
Mrs. Livingstone coughed. Anyway, she had already offended Justin, so she might as well go all out. “Why are you
all looking at me? Look at the three children! Pete grew up with Justin and received elite education since he was
young. What about Cherry? She grew up with Miss Smith, and everyone should have heard about Miss Smith’s past,
right? She grew up in a small place in California. What kind of knowledge and horizons can she have? Cherry’s
upbringing is definitely not as good as Pete’s.”
At this point, she looked at Cherry. “Cherry, it’s not that I’m criticizing you, but you have to study hard. Girls who
play games every day are bad. However, this isn’t your fault. You can’t blame yourself for having suitable
environment to grow up in…”
Although Nora was the eldest daughter of the Smiths, she grew up in a small place in California.
Everyone knew about this, but Nora was Anti and also the disciple of Dr. Zabe. Who could guarantee that they

Therefore, no one mentioned her past.
However, with Mrs. Livingstone saying this, everyone could not help but size Cherry up.
The little girl stood there gracefully. She was wearing a white princess dress and a cute diamond hair clip on her
head. She looked adorable no matter how one looked at her.
Cherry blinked her dark eyes and her expression darkened.
She suddenly thought of the time when her brother had forced her to study every day…
At that time, her brother would always look at her and sigh. He even said that she should not embarrass mommy.
She felt that she was soft, cute, and charming. How could she embarrass her mother?
But now, she understood.
So this group of people thought that she and her mother had been living in a bad environment since she was
young?
This was too infuriating!
The little fella immediately stepped forward and raised her head to speak. “Grandma, have you been living well
since you were young?” Mrs. Livingstone was a daughter of a wealthy family. She immediately raised her chin. “Of
course.”
Cherry instantly shrunk her neck. “Then I don’t want to grow up in a good environment. I don’t want to be like you
and force my nose in other people’s matters.”
With that, she suddenly covered her mouth. “Oh, I want to stay away from this woman. I’ll be infected by you! Why
are you pointing fingers at others?! Mommy says this isn’t good!”
Not being judgemental was the best virtue.
Amongst the wealthy families and young ladies, this had always been the rule. However, where there were many
women, there were many disputes and gossips.
The circle of wealthy madams in New York was too boring. Therefore, everyone often gossiped. It was not very
good.
At this moment, Cherry’s words made everyone present respect her.
No matter what, just Cherry’s words showed that her upbringing was not bad!
Mrs. Livingstone was so angry that her entire body trembled, but she still sneered and said, “Cherry, I’m your
relative. That’s why I care about you. Why would I care about other people’s matters? If you despise me for
disciplining you, then I’ll apologize to you! Sigh, kids these days are so sensitive. I can’t even say anything as an
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmelder!” She was labeling Cherry as being disrespectful to her elders!
Pete narrowed his eyes and stepped forward. He suddenly smiled and said, “Mrs. Livingstone, what kind of family
do you come from? Why didn’t I know that we’re relatives?”
Mrs. Livingstone immediately said, “Your great-grandmother is my aunt. I’m definitely your relative!”
Pete seemed to be stunned. He was very gentlemanly as he seriously asked, “Is that so? Then everyone here today
is my family, right?”
Those who could attend the banquet were all from families deeply rooted in New York. Were they not related at all?
Pete was being sarcastic. Where did she come from?!
These words were like a slap to Mrs. Livingstone’s face, making her even angrier.
However, on second thought, their relationship with the Hunts was really supported by Mrs. Hunt alone. She
instantly blushed and stopped talking.
Coincidentally, Ian and Justin came downstairs.
Mrs. Livingstone instantly shut her mouth.
Ian and Justin had already arrived in front of the children and began to give them presents.
Ian’s gift to Pete and Xander was his own shares in the company. Five percent was given to the two children just like
that!
