Return of the Crowned Heiress

11

Arnold, who had been dragged to the party by Matthew, looked confused.

Surprise? When did he prepare a surprise for Kayla?

However, recalling that Kayla had asked him for a gift a while back, he figured it was about that. Smiling, he said, "I'm glad you like it."

When he confirmed her speculation, Kayla beamed at him, her eyes sparkling like stars. Just then, Matthew cleared his throat, interrupting their gaze, and strode into the house. Arnold hurried to catch up.

In her joy, Kayla didn't notice that Matthew hadn't even bothered to glance at her. After he entered, another car pulled up.

Seeing who it was, Kayla shouted excitedly, "Grandpa!"

It was none other than Clive Walsh, Myra's father. He was the top national physician and founder of the famous Harmony Medical Center.

Clive and Myra had once been so estranged they nearly severed their father-daughter relationship. Even after Myra relented and conceded, Clive had ignored her, and he hadn't visited in years. Hence, his appearance was unprecedented. "Hello, Grandpa!"

"Hello," Clive replied somewhat perfunctorily, then strode inside without further pleasantries.

Kayla was puzzled but didn't think much of it. She quickly followed him into the mansion.

Inside the mansion, guests were gathered under the twinkling lights. Soothing music flowed through the hall, creating a perfectly lively atmosphere.

At that moment, Felicia came down from upstairs. Under the bright lights, the sound of her heels echoed on the spiral staircase, drawing everyone's attention instantly.

As they looked up, they saw a young woman in a pale purple gown descending gracefully, exuding an air of ethereal beauty, like a goddess looking down upon the crowd. With her appearance, gasps of astonishment and admiration spread through the guests.

I thought they said she was just a country bumpkin!
