StarNovelChapter 113 "There's no use being envious. Sthings are just meant to be." A gloating voice cfrom beside me.
I turned my head to see Zedd's sarcastic stare. I asked in a deep tone, "Do you seegetting envious, President Nichols?" "Stop pretending, Wanda. Your jealousy is written all over your face. It's true, Cindy is now Petra's daughter. Everything has changed now, whether it's identity or wealth. She's not comparable to ordinary people anymore. Only she is worthy of standing next to him." Zedd glowed with pride as he looked atwith a provoking stare.
I took a glass of juice from the server's hand, took a sip, and raised a brow at him. I said, "You think that I'm not worthy to stand beside Theo, yet you're worthy of standing beside Miss Reed?" I gave a few looks at Cindy who was surrounded by the crowd and continued to say, "At least Theo is still the father to the child inside of me. What about you? You were barely considered to be Miss Reed's little attendant back then. Who knows if you can even keep this identity in the future? You must be feeling inferior and terrified deep in your heart. Is that why you always ctoto vent out?" "You..." Zedd did not think I would frustrate him. He was too angry to speak a word.
I ignored him and walked toward the hall with the glass in my hand.

"Wanda! Did you do it on purpose?" Zedd's eyes went red as his body shook with fury.
Looking at the orange juice that was spilled on his cuffs, I said helplessly, "You were the one who pulled me. Why are you blaming me?" "I don't care. You're responsible for cleaning it." He stretched his dirty arms in front ofwith an aggressive look.
"You sure you wantto clean it now? You, President Nichols, are wearing stained clothes on such an important occasion. You'll look even shabbier in front of Miss Reed," I raised my brows and questioned.
Farther away, Cindy happened to look in our direction. She scanned pastcoldly. Her eyes were full of disdain. Next, her eyes fell on Zedd and she made a 'go' gesture with her hand.
Zedd immediately took his jacket off and threw it on my arms. He said as he walked, "Deal with it now." I looked at the jacket in my hands and shook my head somewhat helplessly.
The birthday party had officially begun. Petra went up on stage to give a speech of appreciation and ceremoniously announced that she had found her daughter. She invited Grayson and Cindy up on stage. While overcwith emotions, she spoke about the past and her experience in finding her daughter.
After decades of wandering, their family of three was reunited. They were not the only ones crying and hugging each other emotionally as the audience below the stage was also wiping their tears. The whole scene was warm and touching.
At the stime, Petra expressed that she would transfer half of the company's shares to Cindy and educate her on management as soon as possible.
The spotlight landed on Cindy in an instant as everyone's attention was now on her. Not only did she beca plutocrat in seconds, but more importantly, she also had Grayson's blessings. It can be said that she had squeezed her way to the top of the pyramid. She could do whatever she wanted in both Salt City and Whaldorf City now.

"Pass this gift to President White later." A faint and cold voice suddenly spoke.
I had no idea when Theo stood beside me. His face looked cold and his eyes were deep.
Despite my surprise, I took the box from him. I did not understand his intention and why he could not give it himself. Why did he needto pass it to her?
"This is President Nichols' jacket. I accidentally spilled juice on it earlier. Please let him know i'it replace a new one for him." I took the opportunity and stuffed the jacket into his hands. Theo frowned but did not say anything. He turned around and tossed the branded jacket into the trash.
At the front, Petra and Grayson had already introduced Cindy to their guests one by one. Nooked at them and said faintly, "You should be standing beside Miss Reed right now." His already bad expression turned even gloomier and colder. He frowned and said, "Don't you think you owean explanation?"
I knew that he was talking about Tyler. In the past, I would have explained it to him in detailkabout Tylen and me, but now, I did not even want to say a word. I just said to him, "There's nothing to explain. It's as you saw." X
