CHAPTER 1037 WELCOMING BANQUET

“Sounds great. I was just getting bored.” Eleanor agreed without hesitation. Then, she returned the phone to Yvette.

After Veronica gave some reminders to Yvette, she hung up the phone.

“What’s the matter?” Troy asked.

“Mrs. Kings has invited us to Pinewoods Villa. According to her, they’re preparing a welcoming banquet for Miss Gomez,” replied Yvette.

Because of this, they had to cancel their horse racing plans. Once everyone piled into the car, Thomas started the engine and drove toward Pinewoods Villa. It took about twenty minutes for them to arrive at Veronica’s house from Axies Villa. Soon enough, they arrived.

“We’re here, Miss Gomez,” said Thomas as he parked the car.

Hearing his words, Eleanor opened the car door and exited the vehicle. Standing before the luxurious villa, she couldn’t help but ask, “Is this Matthew’s house?”

“Yes, Miss Gomez.”

Looking at the majestic villa that could be compared to a palace, Eleanor shook her head and exclaimed, “No wonder he is unwilling to marry…”

“Ahem!” Before she could say anything, Troy cleared his throat to remind Eleanor about her words.

Eleanor returned to her senses and fell silent as she looked at Troy. “Let’s go. I want to have a look inside.”

Behind them, Yvette and Thomas exchanged glances with each other. Then, they landed their gazes on Eleanor. They felt that she had many secrets, but they didn’t dare pry into her private matters since Matthew had forbidden them to do so.

In the living room, Veronica walked out when she heard the commotion by the doorway. “Eleanor?” She walked down the stairs and approached the woman. “How have you been? Are you getting used to Bloomstead?”

Eleanor was looking at the baby in Veronica’s arms. The baby was cute and had doe eyes. It was pouting its lips and biting its tiny fingers, looking incredibly adorable.

“I feel caged,” replied Eleanor as she waved her hands exasperatedly. Then, she looked at the baby and said, “Is this the child you had with Master? Goodness, it’s so cute.”

“Are they here already?”

Matthew made himself present just then, and he was followed by Caleb and Miguel.

Eleanor’s eyes lit up when she heard Matthew’s voice. At once, she sprinted toward him. “I finally get to see you, Master. I’m so lonely without you.” As she spoke, she opened her arms and tried to hug him.

However, before Eleanor could get her hands on Matthew, the latter pulled Miguel over and dragged him between them.

Eleanor froze when she saw another person. She was baffled as she stood in front of Miguel. Then, she glared at Matthew and said, “That’s very rude of you, Master.”

“Miggy, this is Eleanor.”

When they were talking in the study, Matthew told Caleb and Miguel everything that had happened in the hidden clan. Thus, the duo knew that Eleanor was Her Highness and the leader of the hidden clan.

Although they knew she was pretty, they were still stunned by her beauty when they saw her milky skin and red dress.

No matter how hard Miguel tried to hold himself back, he couldn’t help but gulp nervously when he looked at her. “Hello, Miss Gomez. My name is Miguel Lynch.”

“Hello.” Eleanor shook his hand in a friendly way before doing the same with Caleb. “Hello to you too.”

“Nice to meet you. My name is Caleb Shaw.” Caleb shook her hand and smiled. “I heard from Matt that you are a beautiful woman. As expected, you are dazzling.”

“Thank you for your appraisal, Mr. Shaw.”
