Chapter 476: Aunt's Dinner Party

Arthur's sudden rise to fame brought unexpected benefits to the Reed family. Horizon Entertainment seized the moment to sign Arthur under their agency, enhancing his and Ember Saffron's partnership as on-screen brothers. The PR team was also sharp, revealing Juliet's relationship with Arthur and dispelling the rumors that had plagued the Reed family online. This greatly benefited the Reed family business.

Esther felt a heaviness in her heart upon hearing this news. Since Jasper had been arrested, no one from the Reed family had taken the initiative to contact Tina. Although Esther constantly thought about the child, she couldn't find a reason to meet her. In Esther's heart, Tina was Natalie's child, thus her own niece by extension. Esther and Natalie had been like sisters, and even though Tina was not related by blood, she was still the daughter of her closest friend, and Esther could not bear to lose contact with her.

Juliet had mentioned to Esther about Tina's discreet help to the Reed family. Esther knew Tina was not a cold-hearted child; she would return any kindness shown to her manifold. Esther's reason for not contacting Tina was different from others; it was out of guilt. Natalie had never been treated well by the Reed family, and her daughter was treated no better. How could she not feel guilty?

Now, with Tina's help, her son had become an overnight sensation, and Esther could no longer hold back; she had to reach out to Tina. She gathered her children, including Juliet, who was shooting a film, and set up a video call to express her thoughts.

"I want to invite Tina for a meal, and all of you must attend, treating her as your own sister. Do you all understand?" Esther's intention was not just to have a meal with Tina but to foster closer ties between the younger generation and Tina, ensuring she was not neglected.

If Tina suffered any wrongs at Jared's hands, the Reed family was to support her. Juliet and her siblings had no objections, and Arthur certainly didn't. He could not ignore someone who had once been close as Serena to him. He still had the parrot they had shared!

It was a symbol of their close relationship.

Only Audrey was puzzled, "Mom, after all Tina has done to our family, how can you still care about her? She's a jinx, getting close to her brings nothing but trouble to the Reed family!"

"Audrey!" Esther's eyebrows knit together in anger, "Think about it, who really caused our family's downfall, Tina or the sins of the older generation?"

Audrey opened her mouth to respond but said nothing. She knew deep down that it was Annabelle and Jasper whose crimes Tina had exposed. It wasn't Tina's fault that the Reed family was in its current state.

But couldn't she have handled things more gently? Must she have made such a spectacle, putting every member of the Reed family through the wringer for her own satisfaction, and what about everyone else?
