Chapter 476

When Naomi heard Tristan was looking for her, she figured he wanted to

compliment her efficiency. With a smug grin, she grabbed Sylvia's arm and led her straight out.

As Sylvia stepped into the living room, she was surprised to see not only the Garcias but the entire Sanford clan gathered there as well.

The second the two women entered, every pair of eyes in the room fixed on them with thinly veiled contempt.

Sylvia barely made it to the center of the room before she met Rupert's icy stare.

He was seated at the head of the room, slowly twisting a ruby ring around his finger, his face set in a look of cold detachment.

Sylvia instantly knew-something had gone terribly wrong.

She'd barely found her footing when she noticed dozens of unwrapped gift bags scattered across the floor.

Before she could say a word, Reese hurried over, worry etched all over her face. "Sylvia, what's going on with these gifts?"

Sylvia leaned in for a closer look but Naomi, as if recalling something, jumped in, "Ms. Sanford, did we forget something in the gift bags? I can call someone to fix it right away."

Reese held up her hand to stop her, her face conflicted as she turned to Sylvia. "Sylvia, are you sure you weren't too tired and missed something?"

Sylvia frowned, confused, just as the sound of a porcelain cup clattering onto a saucer echoed from the side sofa.

She glanced over and saw a woman in a champagne-colored silk dress, a pair of elegant black Tahitian pearls dangling from her ears. The woman sat with a regal posture, every inch exuding sophistication.
