Although everyone wanted to witness the drama unfold, it made no sense for everyone to follow them into that family’s private quarters.

The party was only halfway through when Cora, Alexei, Natasha, and the three members of the Westwood family went ahead as representatives to handle the matter. Meanwhile, Edgar and Quinn continued to host the guests in the main

hall.

Cheryl and Harley exchanged glances, then found an excuse to slip out of the party hall and follow them.

Edgar took a deep breath and gave a few light laughs to the guests without changing his expression. “Dereck is still not steady at his age. I apologize for the spectacle.”

The other guests, understanding the situation, tactfully cooperated. “Every family has its troubles. Mr. Turner, your grandchildren are all outstanding.”

The atmosphere quickly stabilized with everyone’s polite exchanges, but the focus of the party’s conversation had quietly shifted.

Back then, Teri and Dereck’s relationship also caused quite a stir.

In the years before Dereck’s leg injury, Teri often publicly showcased their image as a perfect, loving, and devoted couple.

She even mocked other families for having many illegitimate children and cold marital relationships.

And now, their supposedly loving marriage ended like that?

Was their love so destructive?

A group of people furtively exchanged glances, avoiding Edgar, the birthday celebrant. They gleefully indulged in the unfolding drama.

Natasha’s outburst laid bare all the hidden past of Teri, the privileged daughter woman from the previous generation.
