Chapter 148 Amelia And Her Daughter

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

It was 7:10 p.m., in the Riker family.

Guests arrived one after another. Lindon, the eldest son of Patriarch Riker, and the third, Terrence, stood at the entrance to greet the guests.

Hustle and bustle gradually filled the house.

A family of three walked in.

Lindon’s eyes lit up as he saw them. He smiled and said, “Welcome, Mr. Hart and Madame Lockwood. Oh my, is this your daughter?”

Amelia smiled coyly.

Although she and her daughter had barged into Northernville Manor and offended Draxton, the patriarch, it had been a few months, and he might have forgotten about it now.

But she wasn’t sure of it, and she tried many times to meet him, without success. Now there finally was a chance, the party. She came to the Riker family’s banquet today only to take the opportunity to meet Draxton and apologize to him.

After all, she thought, her father died to save the patriarch, and therefore, the current would probably forgive them, as long as she apologized.

Cliff stepped forward, smiling, and said to Lindon, “This is my daughter, Sophia, Mr. Riker. It’s our honor to be here for Patriarch Riker’s birthday.”

Lindon’s eyes sparkled slightly. Some time ago, Draxton had punished many members of the Lockwood family, including Amelia and her families.

Her family was having a rough time these days. Lindon said with a smile, “Oh, your presence really surprised me, and we’re really lucky to have you here, do come in, ladies and gentlemen.”

The moment Amelia and her families entered the hall, a servant came up to serve them. And Lindon went out to greet new guests.

Sophia tugged at the pink gown she was wearing and complained under her breath to her mother, “Mom, the Riker family’s too perfunctory. He’s not really friendly enough at all.”
