Chapter 262

Mrs. Lewis didn’t get angry when she saw Rachel interrupting her. She kept smiling and replied, “It’s the Anderson’s daughter, Nora.”

Rachel: “???”

Her eyes narrowed as she shouted, “Impossible!”.

Her intense reaction covered Yvonne’s clenched fists. Mrs. Lewis looked at her in confusion. “What’s wrong?”

What could they do?

Yvonne seemed to have thought of something and said with a calm expression, “This is the person you were talking about earlier, the one who stole the spotlight at the dance, right?”

Gal no ve l s . com hosts your favorite stories Rachel: “?”

She felt as if she had been slapped hard as her cheeks burned.

They had just said that even though she was the center of attention, no one wanted her. Even now no one had come to propose to her. But how had she suddenly found such a powerful boyfriend?

Impossible!

Mrs. Lewis was stunned. “What do you mean?”

Obviously, she didn’t know.

Yvonne didn’t want to leave the impression that she was saying bad things behind her back, so she smiled helplessly. “It’s nothing. I’m just saying that this young lady danced well.”

After hearing the praise for Nora, Rachel got really angry. “What, Miss Smith, even if you don’t talk about her behind her back, you can’t leave such a wrong impression on the Hunts. Mrs. Lewis, let me tell you that Nora is someone who hates marriage! After being picked up by the Andersons at a small place, she found an opportunity to sneak into this year’s dance.Did you know that? She did it to show off her dancing skills and wow everyone, she even danced using a man’s steps! Everyone knows that. She simply strives to be the center of attention. She does it to quickly find a man to marry! Have you misunderstood something? How can Mr. Hunt like someone like her?”

Mrs. Lewis did not expect to hear such words. She immediately said excitedly, “Is that so? Miss Wood, hurry up and tell me the details…”

Rachel began to add fuel to the fire. She told them what had happened that day, omitting her coercion and Sheril’s complaints, of course. She created an image of a woman who loved to brag.

Hearing those words, Yvonne slowly picked up her coffee cup and drank with a slight smile.

When Rachel finished speaking, she said, “Very well Miss Wood. Don’t talk about the others behind their backs.”

Rachel pouted.

Mrs. Lewis seemed to be deep in thought. She had not expected this to happen. Therefore, words like that Mr. Hunt had not yet won Nora over, and that Miss Smith had no sympathy for Mr. Hunt, were all false! Nora was playing hard to get!

Why the clever gentleman fell in love with her!

Mrs. Lewis was a little anxious. She had to hurry to tell her mother-in-law the news before telling Mrs. Hunt.

However, as anxious as she was, she did not forget her mission today. After smiling at Rachel, she looked at Yvonne. “Miss Smith, my mother-in-law has asked me to tell you to take the opportunity at the birthday banquet.”

Her words made Yvonne blush.

She lowered her head and said awkwardly, “But didn’t you say before that Mr. Hunt already has a girlfriend…”

Both the Hunts and the Smiths were interested in a marriage alliance. After all, although the Smiths and the Hunts had competed in the past, times were different now. A marriage alliance obviously had more benefits.

This was also one of the important reasons Ian had adopted Yvonne.

The elders of the two families had tacitly agreed.

When Mrs. Lewis heard this, she patted Yvonne’s hand. “Gosh, their relationship is still unconfirmed, who in New York knows? Besides, now she’s just a bride…. You should prepare well! This is a rare opportunity. Besides, even if it’s not the lord, you should find someone…”

Although every year there was a ball in New York, it was always a gathering of young people.

This time, Mrs. Hunt was suddenly celebrating a big birthday party. The elders of each family would definitely attend as well. It was the biggest party in recent years.

If she could shine at this banquet, she would definitely surprise everyone.

Yvonne lowered her head and her ears turned red. In the end, she nodded.

When Mrs. Lewis left, Rachel leaned over to Yvonne. “Miss Smith, is this the Hunts’ intention?”

Yvonne smiled wordlessly.

Rachel immediately shook her by the arm. “You must work hard. You mustn’t let that Nora really become Mrs. Hunt. Her family background is so bad. How can she compare to you? You’re the Smiths’ eldest daughter.”

Yvonne sighed. “I’m not the real eldest daughter.”

“So what?”

Rachel’s tone was very aggressive. “Look in New York, who dares say you’re not the real eldest daughter? Besides, who in the Smiths dares to look down on you?”

Yvonne’s long lashes hid the coldness in her eyes.

Despise her?

Wasn’t she doing exactly that right now!!!!

If she was the Smiths’ real eldest daughter, why would she associate with the likes of Rachel?

However, Yvonne didn’t say that.

She smiled and asked, “But what can I do?”.

Rachel immediately said, “Of course you can impress them with your gifts! In addition to performing in the talent show, you have to bring a valuable gift and surprise the whole audience.”

She gritted her teeth and said, “The most important thing is that you have to beat Nora! Even if she has the same last name as you, how can she be worthy of the last name Smith? After all, she’s just a niece of the Andersons! Even if she is the eldest daughter of the Andersons, she’s just a drug saleswoman. Miss Smith, you must think of a good gift…”

Drug saleswoman…

Yvonne’s eyes sparkled. “What is good or bad? Whether it is valuable or not is not important. I’m only concerned about Mrs. Hunt’s health. I heard that she just had her head operated on recently…. I will have my brother help me find some suitable medicine.”

The only thing the Andersons could offer was medicine.

However, the medicine the Smiths have found will undoubtedly be exceptionally good.

When the two compete, the difference in strength will be obvious.

Two days later.

In the lab at the Andersons’ pharmaceutical factory.

Sheril and her master had been here for two days. For the past two days, the woman in the lab hadn’t slept a minute.

During this time, other than Sheril sending some food, Nora never left the lab.

Bam!

Suddenly, there was a loud sound in the lab.

They both immediately got up and looked through the glass window. They saw white smoke coming out of the alchemy furnace.

The master stamped his foot. “Oh no, it failed!”

Sheril was stunned. “What?”

The master said, “Back then, I saw Doctor Zabe make the medicine. At the time the Zabe Corporation’s Soothing Pill was formed, it emitted black smoke! White smoke must mean failure.”

He was heartbroken. “You two wastrels! My 500-year-old ginseng! It’s really gone to waste!”

However, just as he finished speaking, he saw .
