The reason for his agreement was simply because he didn’t want Gervinse to suffer hias outside
He hadn’t really given her much. Even their wedding was kept simple dun to Ophelia’s dissatisfaction with her.
Since then, there had been no more parties for Genevieve. Her birthday and their wedding anniversary were all celebrated at home,
Theodore never expected that they would be so misunderstood by outsiders regarding Genevieve
Upon careful thought, he discovered that since their marriage, not only did outsiders have a bias against Genevieve, but even Ophelia and Vivienne showed disdain toward her.
He had retrained from sparking any family conflicts before, but it was truly unfair to Genevieve. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
I make her the happiest woman in the world!”
He said, “On your mom’s 50th birthday, I will
“I knew you loved her very much,” Cecilia exclaimed happily. “I’ll take care of the party. You just need to follow my arrangements and surprise Mom when the time conses.”

“Don’t worry.” Cecilia smiled. ‘On mom’s birthday, I will make sure you and her dazzle everyone in the country.”
I’ll follow your orders. Theodore was indulgent, smiling with a hint of anticipation.
“It’s getting late, Dad; you should rest early,” Cecilia said.

Cecilia sat in the hall for a while. Organizing this birthday party Genevieve from suffering any longer.
During the years Cecilia married Dominic, Genevieve was even looked down upon by Dominic’s mother. The disdain towards Cecilia’s mam could be heard in their words anytime, but to avoid her sadness in the Kingsley family, her mom always endured it. She even deliberately ignored her mom’s grievances to be a good daughter–in–law.
Now thinking back, she wanted to slap herself for putting Dominic above everything. She had lost herself for Dominic.
Cecilia gritted her teeth. She vowed never to make the same mistake again and would definitely seek revenge.
Half a month passed, and tomorrow was Genevieve’s birthday party.
All preparations for the birthday party were kept secret from Genevieve.
Cecilia wanted to give her a surprise. It was hard to have another 50 years to live, she must make up for all her mother’s regrets Trom her early years..

It was surprising that this fickle man took the initiative to call her. the past half month, they had no contact at all. she have no communication with Alatle, but also with Dominic,
- Not only did
Dominic had been busy with a Forbes celebrity list these days, preparing a lot of materials and even having a live speech.
It was understandable why Dominic valued it so much; this selection was a prestigious event in the Yakurosean Empire, and eighty percent of outstanding political figures in the Yakurosean Empire had received this title.
Therefore, Dominic attached great importance, to it. Once he got busy with his own affairs, he wouldn’t pay

Of course, Cecilia was relieved. She didn’t want to act with him at
While driving, she answered the phone. “Hello.”

Cecilia continued, “Remember to come on time.”
“I’ll give my future mother–in–law a birthday gift, Alaric said,
Hearing this, Cecilia was a little speechless. “No need.” She tried to remain calm. “You’ve already given a gift.”
“What?” Alaric was surprised.
“You’ll see tomorrow.” Cecilia deliberately
y didn’t reveal more.
Alaric chuckled and didn’t ask further. He said, “Turn on the TV in a while.”

“Drive cautiously, I’ll wait for you, Cecilia replied.
“Okay.” Seraphins hung up the phone.
Cecilia put down her phone and, led by the staff, went to the VIP room of the jewelry store, receiving the most high–end service.
“Ms. Lockhart, please wait a moment. Our staff has gone to get the own for you and will deliver it shortly,” the shop assistant said respectfully.
“Okay.” Cecilia nodded while sipping her coffee. Suddenly, she thought of something. She said, “Can you turn on the TV for me?”
The VIP ↑ room was equipped with a television,
“Of course, please wait a moment. The shop assistant quickly turned on the TV for her and asked, “Ms. Lockhart, would you like to watch Mr. Kingsley’s live speech?”
Cecilia was stunned. She had just remembered that the Forbes celebrity list selection was today. ‘Did Alaric ask me to watch Dominic’s speech on the TV?”
In her memory, Alaric had not participated in this Forbes celebrity it selection. The threat from Alaric’s influence began to itself in the second year after she and Dominic got married. Once it appeared in their sight, it was unstoppable.

However, at this moment, Cecilia saw on the TV screen that the staff on–site were introducing the list of candidates for the Forbes celebrity list selection, and the first name was Alaric.
The camera immediately focused on Alaric sitting in the front row.
His perfect face was truly alluring, which made Cecilia momentarily distracted.
“Fuck! How does this bastard be on TV? He still looks so charming!” Seraphina’s voice suddenly came from the doorway.
Cecilia turned to look at her. She seemed out of breath.
At that moment, even she seemed to be captivated by the TV screen,
Cecilia explained, “It’s the annual Forbes celebrity list selection in the Yakurosean Empire.”
“Is it the same event as the one you attended at Lumina Mountain to pray
for Dominic?” asked Seraphina.
Cecilia s sneered. She had already thrown that amulet into the trash can. Dominic was totally a scumbag!
