I Became His Sweetheart by Bright Eyes

Chapter 318 He Didn’t Do It For Me

“I came to Harbor City on behalf of the Yorks, and have been so busy with work that I’ve had no chance to invite everyone to my house for a gathering. I’d like to take this chance to invite everyone here at Duke Wilhelm’s birthday celebration.”

Leo walked toward Duke Wilhelm and his children, and went o, “I will send my men to personally deliver your invitation cards to you. As for the duke’s family, I will take this chance to hand them their invitation cards in person.”

He took out the invitation cards and handed one to Duke Wilhelm first before giving out the rest of the cards to the Duke’s children. Grace was last in line of four children, and she waited expectantly for her turn.

Her shameless flattery just now must have moved Leo!

Leo was full of smiles as he gave out invitation cards in front of everyone, inviting their family to the Yorks’ residence for a gathering. That clearly meant that he was very pleased with her. That way, her father wouldn’t keep harping on her mistakes…

She had just felt relieved for a brief moment, when she saw Leo walk to her sister standing next to her and hand her an invitation card. He then glanced at Grace and immediately put away the last invitation card, handing it instead to his subordinate behind him.

Grace was stunned.

So was everyone below the stage.

What did Mr. York mean by that?

By right, he should treat all of the duke’s children equally! Yet, he chose to pick on Ms. Grace in front of everyone. Did Grace offend Mr. York at some point?

Everyone below the stage exchanged glances as they made a mental note to not be seen with Ms. Grace. It

wouldn’t be worth it if they end up incurring the wrath of Mr. York!
