Chapter 176: Why Not Let Tina Play a Piece?

Annabelle held a significant status in Ashbury, always maintaining her dignity. It was surprising enough that she hadn't come down to greet the guests from the upstairs lounge, let alone initiating a conversation with a junior like Tina. Especially since Tina had almost turned Amber's banquet into a joke, one would assume Annabelle would at least give Tina the cold shoulder, if not admonish her.

Yet, Annabelle's approachable and friendly demeanor now puzzled everyone. "Grandma, do you know Tina?" Amber asked, feigning curiosity. Tina paused, confused. The grandmother of the Ashbury Reed family? Her gaze swept over the members of the Reed family, briefly meeting Jasper Reed's probing eyes, then passing the sullen faces of Elizabeth and her sons before resting on Amber with a meaningful look. "Grandma?" Tina chuckled internally, amused by the title. "I had a mishap in Ensford, and Miss Tina was kind enough to rescue me," Annabelle revealed, surprising Amber even further. "Miss Tina, I owe you a great deal of thanks for that. If it hadn't been for you and Mr. Farrell, I might not have been here today. I've been looking for a chance to thank you both, but I didn't know your identities until now."

People around them exchanged glances, realizing how fortunate Tina was, not only favored by the Farrell family and engaged to Jared Farrell but now indebted by Annabelle as well. If Tina were to marry into the Ashbury family, wouldn't she be able to walk sideways through Ashbury?

Tina remained indifferent. Whether it was the Farrells or the Reeds, gratitude or enmity, she cared little. She had never placed any family in high regard. "Grandma?" Amber seethed with jealousy internally, as Annabelle had never been this polite to her.

Mr. Tanner has decided to stop the fashion show, why don't we all listen to Master Sutcliffe play the piano?" This was an attempt to move past the earlier mishaps and regain some order. The crowd willingly shifted from the fashion show to the main banquet hall, no longer discussing the
