Chapter 39
Cole showed up outside Suzanne’s apartment block at 5:00 pm. He was surprised when he saw Suzanne.
She wasn’t wearing the dress Nathan had given her. Instead, she wore a plain, light blue dress. The only accessory she wore was a light blue ribbon, which was used to put her hair up in a ponytail.
The light makeup adorning Suzanne’s face, coupled with the plain yet pretty dress she wore, made her look pure and innocent.
“Mrs. Morrison, you…” Cole stared at Suzanne in surprise, though his sentence came to a staggering end. He had a feeling that he shouldn’t be asking her any questions related to her appearance.
Suzanne was still a little down. After nodding at Cole as a form of
acknowledgment, she opted to stay quiet.
Cole noticed that she wasn’t carrying anything with her, so he decided to drop her a reminder in a roundabout way. “Mrs. Morrison, did you forget something?”
“No,” Suzanne replied.
Cole didn’t say anything more and opened the car door for Suzanne. After she got in the car, Cole drove toward Morrison Residence.
There were more than a dozen burly bodyguards standing guard outside the manor. Countless luxury cars cruised through the open. iron gates, each of them parking at the square in front of the manor.
The butler greeted the guests outside the manor. Meanwhile, the Morrisons would welcome the guests in the hall.
By the time Suzanne reached Morrison Residence, the last rays of the setting sun had already dissipated. The darkness of the night loomed

over the world.
Morrison Residence was brightly lit, and the atmosphere in the manor grew more boisterous.
Those who attended Vera’s birthday banquet were either wealthy or happened to be affiliated with the Morrisons, be it their family or friends. Naturally, the Morrisons busied themselves in mingling with all the banquet guests.
No one cared when Suzanne arrived at the manor or what she would be doing there. And of course, no one bothered to greet her.
Soon, guests filled the halls of the manor. Countless glasses clinked together in toasts meant for Vera. A beautiful melody was being played on the grand piano all the way from the stage.
Suzanne sat at a round table tucked near a secluded corner all by herself. A glass of lemon water sat before her. Just like that, she waited quietly for Vera’s appearance.
She wanted to personally wish Vera a happy birthday so that Vera would know that she had attended the banquet. Once it was done, she could leave the place where she didn’t belong..
“I never thought that you’d be this shameless to attend the banquet.”
A woman’s shrill and rude voice pierced into Suzanne’s ears at that moment. She turned to look up at Sally, who was standing next to her.
Sally looked absolutely dazzling in her gorgeous dress, flawless. makeup, and luxurious jewelry. All of them accentuated her beauty and charm.
Compared to her, Suzanne looked like a plain Jane.
Suzanne had no intention to acknowledge Sally’s presence. She averted her
gaze, letting it settle on the pianist who continued performing onstage. This time,
she decided to enjoy the music quietly.
