As soon as he entered, before he could even greet her, Agnes grabbed Sebastian and asked, “Sebastian, could

you helpdecide which of these two dresses would look better on me?”

Upon hearing this. Sebastian took a glance at the two pieces of clothing

After that, he glanced at Beatrice and Madelyn, who were both eagerly looking at him at that moment.

“Ahem!” Sebastian found himself having to cough a couple of times.

Then, he quietly pointed his slender finger at the traditional gown, saying, “I think this one is better.”

Upon seeing the situation, Madelyn was nearly overjoyed. She immediately turned to Agnes and exclaimed.

“Grandma, I'm right!”

On the other hand, Beatrice was furious, wishing she could wipe Madelyn off the face of the earth.

Agnes watched the scene unfold, finding it incredibly amusing. She promptly nodded. “Let's settle on this

traditional gown, then.”

Afterward, Agnes changed into the traditional gown..

After changing. Madelyn took the initiative to help Agnes with her makeup, styling her hair, and choosing the

jewelry to wear.

Her movements were smooth and skillful, and she was in no way inferior to the stylist nearby.

Agnes observed everything closely, and instantly, her fondness for her granddaughter-in-law grew even

more.

Later on, the banquet was drawing near.

Agnes, dressed in a traditional gown, descended the stairs in a radiant and immaculate fashion. The members of

the Lockhart family couldn't help but shower her with compliments.

“Beautiful! Truly beautiful!”

“Old Mrs. Lockhart is truly radiant today!”

Upon hearing the compliment, Agnes was extremely pleased.

Unable to contain her pride, she exclaimed, “All credit to my granddaughter-in-law!”

As she spoke, Agnes tightly gripped Madelyn’s hand.

After changing into her formal attire, Madelyn gently clasped Sebastian's arm, standing by the entrance to

welcthe guests.

Everyone who passed by praised them, acknowledging the handscouple and declaring they were match

made in heaven.

After a while, Derek arrived with Regina and Eunice. The two of them, as always, greeted everyone politely

before they were ushered inside.

Before long, both Janessa and Rupert arrived.

Upon seeing Madelyn and Sebastian holding hands, Janessa couldn't help but feel a pang of envy.

In her heart, she felt a pang of jealousy. | should be the one standing next to Sebastian!

At that moment, Rupert suddenly stepped forward with a face full of flattery, grasping Sebastian's hand.

“Sebastian, it's been a while. You're still a fine-looking man!”

Madelyn was watching from the side. Isn't this way of exchanging pleasantries just too insincere?

However, out of courtesy, Sebastian withdrew his hand and gave a subtle smile. “Please, cin.”

Rupert then strode in.

Surprisingly, it was Janessa who stood still, captivated by Sebastian’s strikingly handsface. She found it hard

to shift her gaze away.

Thus, she deliberately said to Madelyn, “By the way, Madelyn, Christopher will also be coming later.”

The tone was somewhat suggestive, clearly hinting at something.

However, Madelyn didn’t show any reaction. She just responded, “Oh.”

Sebastian, however, clearly stiffened slightly.

Meanwhile, Beatrice was listening on the side, unable to help but scoff. A despicable woman will always be a

despicable woman.

At that moment, seeing that she had achieved her goal, Janessa decided to leave.

As she walked, she was thinking that the grand event that day was the perfect opportunity to destroy Madelyn.

Tonight, I'm going to make Madelyn fall from grace!

Madelyn, however, didn’t care in the slightest. She remained at the door, continuing to greet the gues: a radiant

smile.

Once all the guests had taken their seats, the banquet officially commenced.

Firstly, Agnes ascended the stage and delivered a brief speech.

Subsequently, numerous old friends of Agnes eagerly arrived, each bearing gifts to celebrate her birthday.

The banquet was quite a grand affair, attracting nearly half of the high society. Hence, the line of well- wishers

was exceptionally long.

Of course, there were swho saw this as an opportunity to curry favor with the Lockhart family, and they

quickly formed a line as well.

As a close relative, Sebastian naturally took the lead, pulling Madelyn to step forward first.

“Grandma, Madelyn and | wish you a happy birthday,” Sebastian sincerely said. “We wish you a life from your

seventieth year to a hundred. May you be blessed with an abundance of happiness and good fortune!”

The scene was immediately filled with applause.

After that. Sebastian presented Agnes with a small, intricately designed gift box adorned with dragon patterns.

“Grandma, this is the birthday gift | brought for you. Feel free to open it and take a look,” he said.

Agnes was feeling blissful, so she gleefully opened the gift box.

Inside the gift box, there was an emerald pendant.

However, it didn’t appear to be an ordinary one.

At that moment, someone exclaimed, shaking with awe, “That's the renowned Divine Emerald! It's said to have

been crafted from Heavenly Emerald, and it’s believed that the person who wears it can be spared from all

misfortunes, grow in compassion, gain significant authority, and reap immense benefits.”

Sfound those words to be unbelievable. “Is it really true? This Heavenly Emerald is a natural one, isn’t it?

It’s a relic from ancient times, rumored to be worth hundreds of millions!”

As these words were spoken, an uproar ensued among everyone present.

There was a chorus of praise, as they all commented on how extraordinary Sebastian's gift was. Even a casual

gift from him was worth hundreds of millions, truly demonstrating his immense wealth and power.

Upon receiving the gift, Agnes was overjoyed. She couldn't help but beam, and her smile was so wide that her

mouth wouldn't close. She praised, “Sebastian, you've outdone yourself.”

Upon hearing this, Sebastian chuckled softly. His gaze toward Madelyn was gentle as he said, “Grandma,

actually, it’s thanks to Madelyn. This gift was her idea, and she personally picked it out.”

“Is that so?” Agnes looked at Madelyn with a surprised delight.

Madelyn stood off to the side, letting out a chuckle. Modestly, she said, “Grandma, don’t listen to hir Even if | did

choose it, it’s not like | was the one who paid for it, right?”

After speaking, Madelyn suddenly clapped her hands.

Immediately, someone at the scene brought over an object. The item, roughly half a meter tall, was covered with

a red cloth, giving it an air of mystery.

“What is this?” Agnes looked at it, puzzled.

At that moment, Madelyn gave a slight smile and promptly lifted the red cloth.

A meticulously carved wooden deity sculpture was presented to the public.

“Grandma. | specifically went to Mount Rochberry Monastery and asked Abbot Falor for this wooden deity

sculpture. It’s carved from the finest rosewood and has been blessed by Abbot Falor himself. The relic held by the

wooden deity sculpture symbolizes longevity, wishing you a long and blessed life.”

When she finished talking, everyone was utterly stunned.

“Abbot Falor? The famous living deity?”
