Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 14

The Henderson family had many relatives. As there were many people, conflicts couldn't be avoided. Diana had already gotten used to hearing unpleasant words during such occasions.

Yvonne was the most outstanding one among the younger generation of the Henderson family. Besides, she was beautiful, had good grades, and knew how to please the adults. Thus, with her around, she would always be in the limelight.

Aside from that, Vivian liked Yvonne the most among her grandchildren.

"Diana, the birthday party started half an hour ago. Aren't you guys extremely late? It's Mom's birthday today. How could you be so careless?"

As Diana had confidence, she walked over to Vivian calmly under the gazes of everyone and apologized, "Mom, we didn't arrive late on purpose. There was a car accident on the way here, so there was heavy traffic."

"It's fine. It's great that you could come." Vivian didn't reprimand Diana, but she sounded a bit unhappy.

Then, Diana forced out a smile and hinted at Yvonne. Yvonne immediately understood and walked over to Vivian with an exquisite gift box.

"Grandma, it's your birthday today. May you be blessed by God and have a long life. This is a gift I prepared. It's a lucky charm made out of emerald. I hope you like it!"

Vivian glanced at the box Yvonne opened and saw the emerald shine brightly under the light. She smiled kindly and said, "As expected, you're most sensible! I like this gift a lot!"

"Grandma, there's still a painting I painted myself!" Yvonne pulled out a scroll timely and revealed it in front of everyone.

It was a painting that consisted of angels. Not only was it suitable for such occasions, but she could showcase her painting skills as well.

"Let me have a look…" Vivian put on her reading glasses and examined the painting carefully before praising, "Your painting skills have improved again!"

She couldn't stop smiling as she looked at the painting repeatedly. Since the Henderson family didn't lack money, rather than the value of the gifts, sincerity was more important to her. It could be said that she was most satisfied with Yvonne's gift so far.

"Yvonne painted again? Let us all have a look!"

At this moment, a voice sounded from the side. It was a distant relative of the Henderson family.

Upon hearing that, Yvonne remained humble and smiled, "I didn't paint it very well. I still need practice."

Then, she showed the painting to the other guests in the venue.

"I heard that Yvonne is great at painting. After seeing it in person today, she has lived up to my expectations!"

"That's right. She's so young, but her painting skills are so mature. She must be a great artist in the future."

"Yvonne, when you hold an art exhibition in the future, we will all attend and support you"

"I have to say that Yvonne is indeed very talented…"

Upon seeing that the other relatives were praising Yvonne, Alice was upset. When she thought about her disappointing son, she could only praise Yvonne perfunctorily with a cold expression.

Diana noticed Alice's expression and smiled smugly. At this time, the fog in Yvonne's heart dispersed because of all the compliments she received from the other relatives.

This situation was what Yvonne was most familiar with. Compliments should all belong to her. She was the center of attention and the protagonist.

Ever since they entered the room, no one noticed Yolanda. Yolanda was destined to be in the background where no one would notice her.

However, someone noticed Yolanda at this moment. "Diana, I heard that Yolanda has come out of the juvenile detention center. It had been a long time since I last saw her. Isn't she going to greet us?"

Ever since Yolanda entered the venue, she had been standing behind Diana. Since everyone's attention was on Yvonne, no one noticed her.

The relatives only remembered that Yvonne had a twin sister after someone had brought it up.
