True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules ( Winnie and Suzan ) novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29 

When Amber learned that Winnie had chosen a black ballgown, she immediately picked out a white ostrich feather flapper dress for herself, which highlighted her already delicate and 

gentle features, making her appear even more pure and graceful

Those boys had been visibly stunned by Winnie’s transformation earlier, but they couldn’t bring themselves to compliment her in public, fearing it would go to her head

Now, at the sight of Amber, they didn’t hold back, enthusiastically surrounding her and showering her with compliments as if they cost nothing at all

Amber, like the true princess of the Bryant family, cast a subtle and smug glance at Winnie, who seemed utterly uninterested and was busy discussing with the hairstylist about keeping her hairdo simple

Amber wavered her smile slightly and her spirits visibly dampened

What’s wrong, Amber?Springer asked promptly

Nothing.Amber replied, shaking her head slightly, her voice softening. You should stop complimenting me anyway. Today is Winnie’s day, and she might feel unhappy seeing this.” 

Hobson frowned upon hearing this, Why should we care if she’s unhappy? You’re the one who grew up with us.” 

Springer nodded in agreement, muttering, Yeah, she’s just been getting all the attention because she’s newly back, with Clifford and Bacchus favoring her.” 

Despite their words, they lowered their voices to avoid being overheard, not daring to mock. Winnie loudly

Amber glinted her eyes as she quietly inquired about their efforts to bring Winnie back. In her mind, Winnie wasn’t someone who could be easily coaxed to return

She had hoped that Winnie’s stubbornness wouldn’t allow her to come back, causing the Bryant family embarrassment, and secretly blamed Winnie for any trouble caused

But to her disappointment, Winnie had indeed returned

As Springer recounted Clifford’s words to her, Amber was stunned. She hadn’t expected Clifford to go to such lengths for Winnie

The difference between an own daughter and others was clear as day

With a sneer in her heart and a concerned facade, Amber cautioned, Make sure Bacchus doesn’t find out about this, or he’ll be heartbroken to know Clifford would choose Winnie over 

Us.” 

Her words, laced with a sigh of faux regret, led those cousins to believe that it was indeed Winnie who had turned the household upside down since her return

Their fleeting admiration for Winnie quickly dissipated

Seeing her chance, Amber added fuel to the fire, I just hope that Winnie has grown wiser with 

her return.” 

Springer, previously marked by dissatisfaction, became conflicted, and he mumbled, She seemed to have a tough time with the Henderson family. Let’s just be patient with her if she’s not too much to handle.” 

At the thought of Winnie living in that modest rental, Springer couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable

Amber was taken aback by his change of heart

The banquet was set to begin at 7:30 PM

The Bryant family’s entire garden was decked out with lights well in advance. As dusk fell, the Bryant Manor lit up like a castle, with the garden wrapped in twinkling lights, radiating splendor from afar

Before 7 PM, a stream of luxury cars began arriving at the gates of the Bryant Manor, delivering impeccably dressed young men and women in suits and evening gowns

Most of Bacchusguests were close acquaintances of the Bryant family, prominent figures within Emerald Bay and even nationally

Many of the younger guests had come with their parents, while others arrived solo, tasked with bringing gifts

The grandeur of the event left many in awe

Kathryn alighted from the car with Barton and Suzan, her eyes widening at the sight of the assembly

Many were individuals Barton could only dream of rubbing shoulders with, and the social medial celebrities were practically untouchable for Kathryn

Our Kathryn is remarkable, snagging an invite to the Bryant family’s event. You’re our little lucky star,Barton praised his daughter, eyes filled with admiration

Since the sudden cancellation of the Bryant family’s partnership had disrupted Barton’s plans for the company, he was eager to seize the opportunity to reengage with them that evening

Suzan, sensing Barton’s ambitious mood but feeling a bit uneasy, pulled Kathryn aside and whispered, Maybe we should warn your father, just in case he isn’t prepared to find out aboutthe Bryant family’s daughter.” 

They had kept from Barton the possibility that Winnie might be the lost daughter of the Bryant family, fearing he might blame them for the partnership’s collapse

Tonight, Barton was solely focused on reconnecting with the Bryant family

The Henderson family lingered at the entrance for a moment before being greeted by someone
