Christine took a sip from her glass after the comment.

Since she was Yasmin’s daughter, I couldn’t refuse her request and also took a sip, saying, “Don’t worry. It’s a part of my job.”

“Ms. Jackson!” A glamorous actress came over to greet Yasmin.

I seized the opportunity to speak. “Ms. Jackson, you carry on. I need to use the toilet.”

For some reason, despite the air conditioning in the banquet hall, I felt unusually restless.

Once in the toilet, I stood at the sink, turning on the tap and repeatedly washing my hands, then splashing cold water on my arms.

However, it didn’t provide any relief. If anything, the discomfort worsened.

Feeling extremely restless, I turned off the tap and suddenly felt dizzy. I quickly grabbed the sink to steady myself.

In a daze, a thought crossed my mind. I’ve been drugged.‘

From the moment I left the house until now, the only thing I had drunk was a sip of juice from the server.

If someone had intentionally drugged me at this event, then the immediate priority was to get out of here. Otherwise, I had no idea what further plans they might have.

“Mr. Frost!”

After taking a photo with her idol, Christine went straight to Ryan.

Ryan frowned slightly, recalling her presence. His expression turned cold. “How did you get in here?”

He hadn’t forgotten that two years ago, he had warned her not to provoke Charlotte, only to end up being blamed for it.

“Let me introduce myself,” Christine extended her hand with a slight smile. “I’m Christine now, Yasmin’s daughter. I was supposed to join you last time when you were discussing business with my mother, but I had other commitments.”

Ryan sneered, “How did you manage to acquire this identity?”

Christine was caught off guard by his directness. Even knowing she was Yasmin’s daughter, he was still so blunt.

“Mr. Frost, there’s no need to be so harsh. Two years ago, I was impulsive. But now, I am indeed my mother’s daughter. She maintained a calm demeanor, I just wanted to let you know that someone saw Ms. Wilson looking unwell in the toilet earlier. Since she is your ex–wife, don’t you want to check on her?”

Before she could finish speaking, the man’s expression darkened, and he quickly strode toward the toilet! That woman always seems to be favored by fate. It was bad enough that she was the missing daughter of the Shaw family. Now, even these people are concemed about her!

Thinking of this, Christine’s eyes were filled with coldness!

Yasmin approached from the side. “Christine, why are you standing here in a daze?”

“Mom!” Christine instantly controlled her emotions, looking obediently at Yasmin. “I wasn’t dazed. I just feel like I’m not handling this kind of occasion very well and am afraid of causing you trouble.”

“It’s fine. You’re my daughter, and no one will say anything.”

Yasmin seemed unconcerned, putting her arm around Christine’s shoulders and leading her toward the elevator. “If you’re not used to it, let’s go back to the room. The more you participate in the future, the more comfortable you’ll get.”

“Mom, you’re so good to me!” said Christine.

However, she wondered if Yasmin would still treat her so well when she found out the truth. She also wanted to know who was so lucky to be Yasmin’s child

‘Too bad for her. She’ll have all the blessings but no life to enjoy them. If nothing changes, Yasmin’s daughter will only ever be me from now on.”

Back in the suite, Yasmin glanced at Christine’s neck with some curiosity.

“Why do you rarely wear the pendant now?”

“Huh?” Christine was momentarily stunned, then said tenderly, “I’m afraid to wear it, worried that I might accidentally drop it or damage it. It was the only memento I had of you from before.”

In reality, it was Jack who didn’t want her to wear it!

Could it be that he feared Yasmin’s actual lost daughter might come into contact with this social circle one day and see it?

Even if she did see it, what would be the problem? The silver pendant was in her possession. A paternity testing was done. She was sure that there was nothing else the other party could do anymore.
