Chapter 353 I had to explain myself there and then. I quickly said," Grandpa, I think you've misunderstood. Matthew and I aren't dating. I'm already married." Grandpa was stunned. "You're married?" I nodded awkwardly.
"Well, if the two of you really like each other, everything else is just small problems," Jeshua replied nonchalantly. This... grandfather was a little too open-minded.
He insisted that there was something going on between Matthew and me. He would not accept any other explanation.
I was at a loss for words, so I did not explain further.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter the banquet had officially begun, waves and waves of people cto send their regards to Grandpa. Swere curious as to who I was, and Grandpa would introduceto them.
People saw that Grandpa liked me, so they were very kind to me. After a while, I got to know many big shots from the political and business world.
I finally understood the reason Matthew broughtto Grandpa, and Grandpa understood his assignment a s well. He helpedfulfill the purpose ofattending today's banquet.
My heart was filled with gratitude. I gathered myself together to fully utilize this chance that was hard to cby.
Petra and Grayson's arrival was within my expectations as well. These two were powerful and famous in Whaldorf City, so it was a no-brainer that they had been invited to this banquet. They would be sure to attend because they respected the value behind the Nietzsche family name.
However, my attendance caught the two of them by surprise.
I watched coldly as they walked toward me. I tried my very best to suppress the hatred I felt for them.
Up till that point in time, I still could not be entirely sure if Petra was involved-in addition to Cindy and Grayson-in the murder of my baby.
However, it did not matter. To be safe, I would just take action against Petra anyway. I did not want anyone slipping through the net.
"Wanda, what are you doing here?" Petra sawand put on a very friendly demeanor. "Long tno see!" "Long tno see, President White." In contrast to her friendliness, I was cold. I really could not bring myself to be friendly with her. I could not even pretend to do so.

The crowd around us was gasping in astonishment. "If President White hadn't announced that she found her daughter stback, I would've thought that she's your daughter." Petra sighed gently. "When I saw Wanda before this, I thought that she was the daughter I was searching for too because we're both too alike." Grayson looked atwith narrowed eyes.
"It's destiny to meet someone who looks like us." Jeshua smiled as he clapped his hands together." Wanda is a bright, charming girl. Why don't you take her in as your goddaughter?" The moment Jeshua said it, Petra and Grayson's faces darkened.
"I was thinking about that before this." Petra's eyes were red-rimmed. "However, this girl had sm unpleasant moments with Cindy prior to this: Since Cindy has been through so much all these years, I can't bear to see her unhappy. Hence, I gave up on the idea of taking Wanda in as my goddaughter." 'Both of them had unpleasant moments'. This was a sentence that could ignite one's imagination. What was it that caused these unpleasant moments? At that moment, the atmosphere turned awkward.
Jeshua was displeased with what Petra said. He felt like she had insulted him.
I saw that Grandpa Nietzsche was I I displeased, so I replied with a smile, "It's perfectly normal for parents to want to prioritize their children." X
