Chapter 112
He suppressed his emotions. “Where is she? Why would she be here p>
Could she have followed them?
Hailey keenly picked up on the excitement in his voice.
What was Logan so excited about?
Excited to see Serena again?
Hailey’s expression darkened for a moment, but she quickly put on a worried look. “I don’t know. I was following her, wanting to ask if the Lancaster family canceled their contract with us because of her. If so, I wanted to beg her, maybe p>
“It absolutely has nothing to do with her!” Marianne cut her off with a disgusted tone. “Who knows what man she latched onto to get into Obsidian Palace last time? Even if she did manage to hook some rich and powerful man, he’d just be toying with her. Why would he go so far as to get the Lancaster family involved for her sake p>
Her malicious speculation sounded nothing like it was coming from someone who had been Serena’s mother for four years.
Instead, she spoke as if she were talking about an enemy.
The undisguised malice and disgust were practically overflowing. “Even if she’s here at Le Céleste now, it must be because some old man brought her here to see the world p>
“She is really going through a lot just to stay in Vaelion City,” Hailey murmured, her face a mask of concern.
“Don’t talk about that jinx,” Marianne said with a look of pure disgust. “She’s nothing but bad luck. We have to meet with someone from the Lancaster family, the richest in Vaelion City, later. We can’t let Serena ruin this for us p>
The Wynn family sat in the main hall, their eyes glued to the entrance.
They stared so intently it seemed their eyes would pop out.
They waited and waited.
Suddenly, a large group entered, and the general manager of Le Céleste personally rushed forward to greet them respectfully.
Patrick’s eyes lit up, and he shot to his feet. “It’s Old Mr. Lancaster, Director Lancaster, and Mr. Lancaster p>
It really was the Lancaster family!
They had actually come to Le Céleste.
The hundreds of thousands of dollars were worth it!
Patrick quickly dragged Logan along and rushed toward the Lancasters, shouting Old Mr. Lancaster
Director Lancaster, Mr. Lancaster p>
The sudden commotion alerted the security guards at Le Céleste.
After all, the clientele here were all prominent figures, and such a scene was unheard of.
But it gave Patrick the opening he needed. He rushed in front of the Lancaster family and, with a heavy thue dropped to his knees on the floor.
The sudden act even startled Old Mr. Lancaster, who was in a wheelchair.
Edward immediately shielded Old Mr. Lancaster, his expression turning cold and severe. “Who is this? Get him out of here, now p>
The guards immediately moved in to drag the man away.
How could Patrick let this opportunity slip away?
He had spent hundreds of thousands to get this chance to see them. If he missed this, when would he get another?
He could never hope to get close to people of the Lancaster family’s stature otherwise.
Patrick yelled at the top of his lungs, “Director Lancaster, it’s me! Patrick from the Wynn Group! Just the other day, you called me personally to discuss a partnership with ou Company”
