Salute to the General novel Chapter 223

Sylvie Larson!

Penny's expression stiffened slightly when she heard the name.

Six years ago, both she and Sylvie Larson were chosen as the Top Ten Outstanding Youth of Channing.

As they were both stunning women, the media reported about them and they were labeled as the Two Goddesses of Channing.

But the two had vastly different personalities. Once, Sylvie Larson was caught by the paparazzi when she went to a hotel with a married man. The news splashed across the front page of tabloids.

That caused Sylvie's' image to shatter immediately. Everyone from Channing soon knew that she was nothing but a socialite who enjoyed the company of men.

Sylvie was secretly convinced that Penny was the one who had the paparazzi tail her and leak the news. Since then, she has held a massive grudge towards Penny.

Hence, Sylvie had been making her rounds in the upper class social circles and bad-mouthing Penny and her status as a single mother. She spread rumors that Penny liked to sleep around and that her daughter was born out of wedlock. She didn't even know who the father of her child was!

Penny did not expect that the person whom she never wanted to see would turn up at her birthday party.

She turned to the person next to her. "Who invited Sylvie Larson?"

Sean grinned. "I did! We Grande Group have been interested in working with Ms. Larson and her Hay Corp.”

"But Ms. Larson feels that we aren't up to her standard, so she hasn't agreed to working with us yet."

"So I thought your birthday would be a great opportunity to have Ms. Larson over for a few drinks, and then we could discuss more about starting a

partnership.”

That's when Penny, Nathan, Benson, Leah, and even Kylie came to realize the ulterior motive behind this party.

Sean had another agenda for throwing Penny a birthday party.

He wanted to work with Sylvie Larson, but she hadn't been impressed with the Smiths' capabilities.

And so Sean decided to use Penny to gain Sylvie's approval.

Penny was feeling quite upset.Grandpa, it's fine if you want me to help you. But how do you not know that I don't get along with Sylvie?

Sean was completely oblivious to how Penny was feeling and led his family to the front porch to welcome Ms. Larson.
