Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 298

Julien found herself staring at the Persian cat – a creature of elegant silver and white. Its eyes were a clear, transparent blue, as striking and precious as a pair of sapphire gems. A purebred cat, no doubt, and vaguely familiar.

Just as she was about to speak, a young girl of about ten appeared from nowhere. Dressed in a white sundress with her hair tied back, sweeping down to her waist. Her eyes, as bright and almond-shaped as a doe’s, were charming and lively. With a small, stylish black purse slung across her shoulder, she tiptoed through the banquet hall, quietly calling, “Lavee, Lavee, where are you?”

Julien furrowed her brows…

This delicate and beautiful young girl… wasn’t she Cherry, her niece? Charlene, to be precise, the eldest daughter of Flavia.

Following Charlene was her twin brother, Nate, or rather Nathan. He reached out to straighten Charlene’s collar, pulling her upright. Despite being twins, Charlene was quite a bit shorter than Nathan.

The cat, Lavee, perhaps realizing that it had caused some trouble, lifted its tail and sauntered back towards Charlene.

Charlene bent over to pick up the cat, giving its head a light tap with a scolding expression. “You’ve caused trouble again! Wait till I deal with you later!”

“Hey, young lady, is this your cat?” The woman who had been startled by the cat earlier, now emboldened by her male companion, was pointing at the Persian cat in Charlene’s arms with her champagne flute and an air of superiority.

Knowing that they were in hot water, Nathan was holding Charlene’s hand, bowing apologetically to the woman. “We’re sorry. We should have been keeping a closer eye on Lavee.”

“Do you even know where you are? How dare you bring a stray cat to such a place!” The woman sneered at the two children.

Despite being a gathering of elites, there were inevitably a few rotten apples in the bunch. They spoke rudely, yet carried themselves with an air of superiority.

Seeing the two children looking lost and alone, the man sneered, “Where are the hosts? Aren’t they going to kick these ill-bred children and their pet out?”

Julie felt the man was being ridiculously unreasonable. These were just children, they had apologized, and yet these two adults were behaving terribly…

Julie was about to intervene when she was stopped by Julien’s gentle laughter.

Caught by surprise, Julie turned to look at Julien. Was she laughing? Why was she looking at these two unknown children with such a tender and proud expression, as though they were her own…

“Where is the security? What a disaster! Whose ill-mannered children are these? What a disgrace!” The man continued to rant, seemingly expecting others to back him up.

Just then, a powerful voice echoed from the entrance, a stern and assertive declaration, “Mine.”

Upon hearing this, everyone turned towards the entrance.
