Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany

Chapter 358

Kenneth was even more confused when he heard how Melody addressed Thalia.

He wondered, She called her Mom Is she Mrs. Kelley's goddaughter now?

No matter what he thought, he still had to be polite. Kenneth immediately smiled warmly and called out, "Mrs Kelley"

"Hey, Kenneth. Thalia also smiled.

When she turned around and saw the shy expression on Melody's face and the affectionate glint in her eyes, Thalia recalled that her daughter and Kenneth were in a relationship, It was more or less awkward.

She found it quite awkward that her younger daughter's ex-fiance became her older daughter's current boyfriend.

It could only be said that life was unpredictable and that unexpected changes happened.

Thalia's eyes lit up slightly. Previously, in order to cancel the engagement for Tiffany, the Kelley family had fallen out with the Harper family. Everyone was very unhappy

If Melody really wanted to marry Kenneth, then the relationship between the two families would need to be reconciled.

With that thought in mind. Thalia said in a soft tone, "Kenneth, our family is holding a banquet tonight. I've already sent out the invitations. Will you attend it?"

Kenneth's first reaction was to refuse. "I-"

Because his father had been investigated for tax evasion some time ago and the company was in turmoil, he was so busy he didn't even go to school and focused on his family business. Naturally, he was not interested in attending such a banquet and did not have the time to attend.

Just as he was about to decline, Melody grabbed his hand and said affectionately, "Kenneth, just attend it. I'll be the star of tonight's banquet. Are you not even going to support me as your girlfriend?" Kenneth found it a bit absurd and could not help but tease, "Why will you be the star of their banquet?"

"It's a secret. I won't tell you for the time being!" Melody blinked and said playfully, "Anyway, you have to promise me first. Will you attend it or not?"

Kenneth said, "Alright. I promise you I'll definitely arrive on time. Are you happy now?"

Kenneth's smile was gentle and slightly doting

Thalia watched the interaction between the two of them and felt quite gratified

It seemed that the relationship between the young couple was quite good. Moreover, Kenneth had previously publicly said that he would not marry anyone other than Melody.

Thalia wondered if she should take advantage of today's banquet and announce their relationship.

Then, it would be time to talk about their marriage.

Thalia already had an idea in her mind, but she looked at Tiffany

Previously, Tiffany had pursued Kenneth relentlessly. She could not get what she wanted. Even though they were already

engaged, Kenneth had never looked at her.

Thalia supposed that it was a good thing for Tiffany to break off he engagement with Kenneth, who was destined to not be together with her. Thalia believed that there would always be someone more suitable waiting for Tiffany

Then, she thought of Mr. Hampton.

Thalia's gaze was gentle. She planned that after Melody's marriage with Kenneth was decided, she would talk to Tiffany about her marriage. When she thought about how her two daughters would be married off in the future, she really couldn't bear to part with

them

Sensing her gaze, Tiffany raised her head and saw Thalia looking at her with a gentle gaze.

Tiffany was slightly stunned and suddenly felt a little dazed.

It had been a while since she had seen such a gentle gaze from Thalia.

Ever since Melody's background was exposed, Thalia had never looked at Tiffany that way.

Tiffany smiled. The fragrance of the coffee reached her nose. She took a sip. It was bitter but sweet,

At eight o'clock in the evening, the Kelley family's recognition banquet was held on a huge cruise ship.

Tonight, the stars were bright and the neon lights were resplendent. The river was calm and there was no wind or rain. The weather and scenery were extremely good.

Guests arrived one after another. At 8:30 p.m., the cruise ship was exceptionally lively. Guests gathered in groups of twos and threes, chatting and laughing as they toasted each other.

The waiters moved around the large cabin and deck with glasses of wine.

This time, the content of the invitations the Kelley family had sent out was a recognition banquet.

However, many guests did not understand who the Kelley family would recognize. Therefore, when a close friend saw Charlie, he asked in a teasing tone, "Charlie, who will you be recognizing? Could it be that you're bringing back a son or daughter that you've raised secretly?"

As soon as he finished speaking, laughter sounded in the surroundings.

But that was obviously impossible.

Everyone in the upper-class families in Lovell City knew that Charlie and Thalia had been in love for more than twenty years. Charlie was famous for how devoted he was and for never getting entangled with any woman.

How could such a devoted man have an illegitimate child?

Unexpectedly, when Charlie heard this, he immediately laughed out loud. "Well, you're half right!"

The guests didn't know what Charlie meant by half right.

They wondered if their guesses were right.

The guests were curious, but Charlie refused to say anything more about it until the banquet officially began. He held

Thalia's hand and went on sage

The couple had just quarreled over a small matter in the morning, but they had already reconciled during lunch in the afternoon.

Having been together for so many years, how could they really late each other!

The couple walked onto the stage. Under the light, the guests saw Charlie in a suit. He was still handsome and elegant in his forties.

Meanwhile, Thalia was wearing a wine-red dress. She had a dignified aura and was still beautiful.

Everyone at the banquet instantly fell silent.

Charlie picked up the microphone and the first thing he said was, Tonce felt that God had treated me well, allowing me to have a beautiful and elegant wife, a beautiful daughter, and a cute and smart son.

"But not long ago, God gave me another surprise!

"He sent back our daughter who went missing 17 years ago!"

Charlie sounded solemn as he slowly said, "Seventeen years ago, at that time, my wife and I had our first daughter. However, we accidentally lost her when she was one year old. From then on, we searched crazily for many years, but there was no news of her. "I thought that we would spend the rest of our lives in regret and guilt. I didn't expect God to send our daughter back to us!

"For today's banquet, apart from informing all of you of this good news, I will also donate a million dollars to charity to thank God for sending my daughter back to me!"

There was a round of congratulatory applause from the audience.

It was indeed great news that Charlie's lost daughter had been found.

The guests immediately congratulated, "Congratulations!"

"Thank you, everyone, for your support. Charlie laughed heartily. "Next, let my eldest daughter, Melody Kelley, show up and greet everyone present!"

The lights shone down.

A young girl in a gorgeous gown slowly walked down the stairs.

Her long hair was tied up and her makeup was exquisite. Her already beautiful face was even more unbelievably gorgeous. She was like an angel who had accidentally entered the human world. The moment she appeared under the spotlight, she attracted everyone's attention.

Melody walked forward in her high heels with a sweet smile on her face.

Her posture was magnanimous, elegant, and calm.

This was a perfect appearance that she had rehearsed countless times in her heart. She wanted to shine brightly and dazzle everyone the moment she appeared. Looking at the expressions of the guests below the stage, Melody smiled more brightly. She thought, 'I've won this round. What right does Tiffany have to compete with
