Deep Affection: Honey, Come Back To Me

Chapter 129 Attend The Party

Julie waved her hand dismissively and said, "Don't worry. Your father knew John can't get close to any fountains or pools. He brought it up a while ago, and I had the fountains and the pools covered before I even came to you."

"That's good. Thank you, Mom." Vivian breathed a sigh of relief. She couldn't let John see the fountains or the swimming pools, or all hell would break loose.

"I've taken care of everything. You have to do your absolute best tonight. There's an enormous amount on the line." Julie was very anxious about Vivian and John's relationship. She was worried that Vivian would do something wrong at the party. If that happened, Julia's position as the Ye family's hostess would be unstable.

Her words sounded distant. Vivian knew that the only reason her mother liked her at all was because of her achievements in life. Without any of that, she wasn't sure if she would even be accepted by her family. Vivian was left disappointed.

Julie quickly realized the sadness filling her daughter's eyes and smiled, "It doesn't matter if it doesn't work out though."

"Mom?" Vivian was surprised.

"Don't worry. I'm here for you." Even if her daughter didn't live up to her expectat

glance so she instantly saw the disgust in Carl's eyes. She pretended to be aggrieved.

"Can't I bring my dog in?"

Before Carl could say anything, Nina turned her head and stared at John. "Didn't you say that I could bring Nine here? You asked me to bring it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought Nine here. What should I do? You said that if Nine wasn't by my side, you'd feel uneasy. How about we leave?"

Raising her eyebrows, Nina turned around and was about to leave.

"Okay!" John agreed much to Nina's surprise. It was rare for him to play along.

They turned around and were about to leave. Carl broke out in a cold sweat. John was the most important guest of the banquet today. How could he leave so easily? "Mr. Shi, Mr. Shi, please wait."

Nina slightly tilted her head and asked coldly, "Can we enter now?"

"Okay, Mr. Shi, please follow me." Carl quickly escorted them in with Nine trotting proudly behind them.

Walking in, Nina felt her phone vibrate in her bag. She checked and saw a message.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Elk. Your ink painting was sold in Lexingport City two days ago. The final price was eight million dollars. Please check if you've received the payment."
