Brenda let out a sigh of relief when she found nothing was amiss with Olivia's makeup.

"You look alright. You've fixed your lipstick, haven't you?"

"Yes." Olivia put the lipstick and mirror into her bag then said, "Let's head in."

"Sure."

Because of the false alarm, Brenda soon forgot about Sam and got out of the car with Olivia. As they walked toward the hotel, she reminded Olivia, "This birthday banquet is unlike before. Your uncle has invited many guests, so you must be on your best behavior. You must show them that although your dad and I have only one daughter, you're as excellent as them or even better, understand?"

Olivia replied, "Mom... Why should I compare myself to others? I don't want to, and I don't care."

"Silly girl, who said anything about comparing? We want you to make us proud. You're our only daughter. You have to carry the responsibility."

"Oh." Olivia sighed. She found it tiring.

As they walked, they saw a few people coming toward them. Olivia thought they looked familiar

from afar.

Brenda was about to ask if Olivia knew them when she heard, "Isn't that Ollie?"

Brenda turned toward the direction of the voice, and her expression turned gloomy.

"It's your Auntie Janet, Mavis, and the rest."

Mavis Jenkins?
