After 8 pm, many of the guests bade their farewells, and the men went to see them off.

The daughters-in-law of the Manoban Family and a few young people who had close relations with the Manoban Family stayed back. They circled Old Mistress and chatted about their family matters, no longer the civilities in official settings.

Kai sat at the corner of the table, his handsome face had a faint, gloomy expression of sorrow and loss.

He had wanted to find an opportunity to have a chat with Jennie. After all, Lisa had previously mentioned that Jennie was abused in prison. Recalling the many times they had met in prison but with her not mentioning a word about it, he felt an exceedingly intense restlessness and guilt.

However, observing the equivocal between Jennie and Lisa in the hall, he dared not step forward at all.

He was able to help Jennie in the past, but now, he had no more reason to do so.

...

Lisa brought Jennie over to sit beside Grandmother. He was worried that Jennie would resist doing so after suffering the grievances earlier on.

However, he did not expect Jennie to be calm and composed, with a faint smile on her slightly pink face. She was not resistant at all as he expected her to be.

Lisa was relieved, and he went to send off the guests.

After a while, Yuna came back from school, still dressed in her casual clothes. She had casually tied her hair into a bun, her clean and beautiful face like that of a young girl was captivating.

The Manoban Family's genes were exceptional; the males were unusually cool and serious, while the females were pretty and cute.

Elegant and generous - all the fine words were convened on her. Yuna was truly one of the top four socialites and was indeed worthy of the title!

She was relatively close to Jennie, but not as close as Yeji and Jennie were.

Spotting Jennie, Yuna nodded at her as a form of greeting to her. She noticed that Lisa was not by the side, and she directly sat between Grandmother and Jennie!

It was as if it did not matter to her that there was now an additional sister-in-law in the family.

She had surely gone slightly overboard.

Jennie did not take the matter to heart but got up and moved a little to the side.

Yuna had always been proud, and now that the Manoban Family was in the limelight, it was normal to have some attitude as the famous socialite in Luo Hai.

Seeing that Yuna was back, Grandmother's tone was rebuking yet loving. "Silly girl, are you really that busy?" "You don't even know how to change your clothes when attending a banquet."

"Grandmother, as you know, I'll be graduating very soon, and I have an internship report to write, so don't blame me."

Yuna was acting coquettishly as she moved closer to Old Mistress. Her slender and petite figure exuded a fragrance unique to a young girl, and Grandmother's gaze on her softened a great deal.

Old Mistress seemed to remember something, and she turned around and said to Jisoo, "Jisoo, I think you should come and sit next to me."

Old Mistress' intention was to have Jisoo sit beside Yuna and use the opportunity to matchmake...

Next to Old Mistress were Yuna and Tzuyu. As such, Jennie had to move further outward.

Jennie had returned for a number of days, but she did not have the opportunity to speak to Old Mistress. Lisa's intention was to have the both of them get acquainted.

However, no one expected Grandmother to directly push her third granddaughter-in-law out...

Jennie did not mind at all and remained calm like water. She gently said, "I'm going to the ladies' room. Mr Jisoo, do come and have a chat with Grandmother."

Jisoo had no other way. The handsome and elegant man winked at Jennie and quietly replied, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"

Kai, who was at the same table, saw that Jennie was being squeezed out and left quietly. He was not happy about it, so he also got up in the pretext of going to the toilet and followed after her.

Jennie was in the toilet for some time, her expression seemed to be in a daze.

Her family had bereaved, and does her staying in the Manoban Family considered as depending on others for a living?

Moreover, she should thank the Manoban Family for putting her in the current state she was in now...

If she had a choice, how would she be willing to appear here and be humiliated by others?

Her stay here was merely Lisa's wishful thinking!

The people of the Manoban Family had only put on a show as if they were doing a charity. How ironic!
