Dumbfounded, she shook her head. “No, I don’t.”
The butler heaved a sigh at once. “Sir, this is an oversight on my end. I will forgo three months of pay as punishment.”
Then, he gave a wave. “Guards, there is a lady here without an invitation. Please take her out!”
Mrs. Livingstone: “!!”
Her eyes widened and she looked at the butler in disbelief. “H-How dare you?!”
However, the security officers had already rushed over. They subdued Mrs. Livingstone straightaway and led her out the door. She struggled fiercely, forming an extremely nasty sight.
At the same time, the security officers also located Thomas where the youngsters were and threw him out as well!
No matter how great the feud, generally speaking, no one would throw a guest straight out of their house. That would simply make the other party look too bad.
Justin’s actions sent a clear message to everyone present: ‘Justin Hunt hates the Livingstones!
The guests at the party were all either rich or noble. All of them immediately got the hint.
The president of a certain bank stepped forward at once. “The Livingstones owe the bank 30 million dollars. I’ll have to press them for it tomorrow.”
“Yikes, they don’t even have any cash flow left. I think we’d better suspend our project with them!”

As the saying went, everyone kicked men when they were down. The Livingstones could straight-up declare bankruptcy the next day!
Justin turned his head to the back in satisfaction and looked at Ian.
Just a moment ago, he had sensed murderous intent from Ian. He wondered what the Smiths’ dark forces would do to the Livingstones?
He wanted to ask Ian about it. If his father-in-law wasn’t going to take action, then he would make the arrangements himself.
But unexpectedly, when he looked over, he instead found Ian, who was surrounded by people, looking somewhat distracted.
He was staring hard at the pair of Hearts of the Ocean with an agitated look on his face.
When Cherry ran to Lucy, she had placed the gems in his hands.
The two gems…
He had bought the first Heart of the Ocean and given it to “her” back then…
The trembling Ian raised his head and looked at John, who was standing in front of him. His fingers curled tightly into fists and then he asked hoarsely, “The lady you serve… Who is she?!”
The tall and thin John was a little surprised by his question. He replied politely, “Mr. Smith, milady’s name is Jessica.”
Jessica?
Ian broke into a frown. “Is she American?”
John answered, “Yes, she is.”
She was American!
Ian’s heart thumped wildly again. He then asked, “Does she go by any other name?”
“Yes,” John paused and then said, “She also goes by Queenie Schmidt.”
Ian lowered his eyes in disappointment when he heard the unfamiliar name. He stared at the two gems in his hand. Suddenly, he pointed at them and asked, “How did she get this?”
John smiled. “Ma’am said that a friend who has already passed away had given it to her. Since it’s that friend’s granddaughter’s birthday today, she shall return it to its original owner.”
A friend who had already passed away had given it to her…
That friend must be Yvette.
Ian’s disappointment grew even stronger.
He shook his head, feeling like he must have lost his mind.
Although he knew very well that Yvette had already died twenty years ago, the moment he heard a bit of news about her, he could not help but wonder if she was still alive.
He lowered his gaze and put the other gem into the box.
Then, he sighed.
As he had only just recovered, he couldn’t stand for too long. Thus, Ian turned, went up the stairs and toward the VIP lounge to rest.
Justin didn’t understand why his father-in-law had suddenly become depressed. He followed after him and asked, “Uncle Ian, what’s wrong?”
Ian waved him off. “It’s nothing. You get back to the party.”
Justin held his arm and said, “I’ll take you upstairs, and also check in on Nora along the way.”
Nora hated crowds the most. Besides, she wasn’t the star today, so she had been hiding upstairs the whole time.
Ian nodded.
But after Justin helped Ian upstairs, he found that Nora, who should have been resting in the VIP lounge, was not in there?
Where had she gone?
It was extraordinarily lively downstairs.
Cherry and Princess Lucy hadn’t met for a very long time, so they had a lot to talk to each other about. The way they couldn’t stop talking to each other was as though the two of them had become conjoined twins.
As for Pete, he was surrounded by the children of the Hunts. He was the future heir to the clan. Moreover, he had grown up with them and also gone to school with them. Thus, even though he was introverted, the group of children still played with him.
Pete didn’t want to talk to them, so he turned and joined the children from the kindergarten instead.
