Chapter 986
Dora's words were extremely standard.
The birthday party that others wanted to attend was just her father's birthday party, and she had unconsciously risen to a very
high position.
Jocelyn took the opportunity to flatter her. "How can we blame Fourth Miss? You're obviously kind. If it wasn't for you, how could
someone like Poppy be qualified to attend the birthday banquet of the master of the Evan family?"
In order to please Dora, she was willing to go all out. She even belittled herself. After all, she had to rely on Dora's invitation card
to participate.
There was no doubt that Dora felt very good, but she frowned and said, "Jocelyn, don't say that."
Jocelyn said, "Fourth Miss, you're just too kind."
Dora smiled and said, "We are all friends... It's a pity that Miss Ramsey can't come. I planned to introduce her to more people.
After all, I appreciate her talent a lot. If she misses such a good opportunity, it won't happen so frequently again in the future.
"That's because she's not blessed." Jocelyn sneered. "After all, she's from a small family. She's short-sighted and ignorant.
There's no one here who will eat her, but she's such a coward..."
Before she could finish her words, she suddenly heard a noise at the door. Dora and Jocelyn immediately turned their heads and
saw a pair of very eye-catching people enter the banquet hall at the same time. No one knew if it was a coincidence or what, but
the two of them looked really good standing together.
Probably because today was a very formal occasion, Harold wore a very formal suit. The pure black outlined his broad shoulders
and narrow waist, and there was a ruby tie clip on his dark blue tie. The ruby was even brighter under the light. The delicate
buttons made of ruby mainly reflected each other. If the jewelry was too extravagant, it would make people dim, but if it was
placed on this man, it would only make him look arrogant and noble.
Perhaps it was because Harold was usually too cold, few people noticed the arrogance that he had had since he was young.
However, at this moment, no one could deny that as he stood under the brilliance, he was as handsome as the wind, displaying
the bearing of a noble family's young master to the fullest extent.
However, the person standing beside him did not lose at all. Her silk red dress made her skin as white as snow. When she
walked, she was like a red plum blossom covered with snow. Her eyebrows were slender and her eyes were like stars. The huge
crystal lamps hanging in the banquet hall were not as bright as the stars in her eyes.
Her skin was already white, and under the shade of red, it was extremely beautiful and moving. Her long hair was curly and hung
behind her head. The red, white, and black collided, giving off an extreme color contrast. Even Jocelyn, who hated her a lot, had
to admit that she was stunned in an instant.
Crystal ignored everyone else's gaze. She tilted her head slightly to look at Harold and smiled. "What a coincidence."
Harold's eyes were cold. "Do I know you?"
"..." Crystal knew that he was indifferent, but she didn't expect him to be this arrogant. He pretended that he didn't know her.
Dora bit the corner of her lips and quickly adjusted her mood. She stepped forward and said, "Master White, this is Miss Ramsey.
We met at the charity party before... Don't you remember?"
Harold said, "I see a lot of people every day. Do I have to remember every single one of them?"
His tone was not good, but Dora felt at ease when she heard that.
It seemed that Harold didn't even have a basic impression of Poppy, let alone a good impression of her.
Crystal, on the other hand, smiled. "That's right. Master White is very busy. How can he remember a nobody like me?"
