Chapter 94 If We End Up Having A Falling Out

After the dance, Yvette accepted the coat brought by a servant and walked over to Jacqueline.

“Mom.”

Jacqueline noticed a hint of unhappiness on her daughter’s face. She patted Yvette’s hand, expressing concern. “What’s wrong? It’s your birthday today, and you don’t seem happy. I’ve brought your favorite singer for you. Don’t be upset, my little darling. Mom will introduce. you to some gentlemen.”

Yvette’s eyebrows furrowed again. “Can I not meet them? I want to hang out with my classmates. It’s always the same old faces here. Every time we meet, it’s just questions upon questions. I’m getting tired of it.”

Soft music played in the hall, and Yvette spoke in a low voice, audible only to Jacqueline.

“Well, you’ll have to get used to this. Heirs and heiresses have to uphold habits appropriate to their status.”

As the hosts of the event, both mother and daughter couldn’t avoid socializing. Yvette reluctantly followed Jacqueline to meet several business partners of the Friedman family, except for the uninvited Smith family.

“Mom, is Jasper still refusing to come?”

Jacqueline experienced a twinge of heartache, yet she managed to curve the edges of her lips.

Jasper recently assumed control of Smith Corporation; he’s quite occupied. Please avoid disturbing him, Yvette. I’ve already extended an invitation, and when your brother finds a moment, he’ll naturally join us.”

There was a time when she could at least catch a glimpse of him in that household, but now she didn’t even have the privilege of setting eyes on him.

Even now, he refused to acknowledge her.

Eventually, Yvette approached the man.

Jacqueline closely examined the person before her. “I heard you’re the one who rescued Yvie?”

Eric, clad in a sleek black suit, stood tall with a sturdy and well-defined physique. In contrast to his usual demeanor, today he emitted a more subdued aura, a touch gentler. “It was a simple effort.”

Jacqueline shifted her gaze to Yvette’s side. “Yvie, haven’t you properly expressed your gratitude?” Her tone remained composed and courteous, but it carried a subtle sense of
