Harold glanced at her and said, "I suddenly remembered, Poppy, right?"
Dora's heart tightened. After all, Harold had remembered Poppy's name.
However, before she felt anything else, Harold calmly said, "Last time, you poured wine on my clothes. Please contact my
assistant for compensation."

Not to mention Crystal, even Dora was silent.
She coughed lightly and said, "Master White, Miss Ramsey didn't do it on purpose. Why don't you just forget about it?" Harold
said, "It's a waste of money."
Dora."..."
Dora gave Crystal an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry, sometimes Master White is more serious."
"It's fine." Crystal smiled. "By right, that's what I should do." Harold didn't say anything else and walked towards the crowd.
Dora grabbed Crystal's hand and said, "I thought you weren't coming. I've been waiting for you for a long time." "There was a
traffic jam along the way." Crystal said, "That's why I'm late. I'm really sorry to make you wait." "It's nothing." Dora held Crystal's
hand intimately and said softly, "Come on, I’ll take you to see my brother and father." Crystal's body stiffened slightly.
Even though she had long known that she would definitely meet some people she used to know at this banquet, she still had
some unclear emotions at this moment.
As they walked through the luxuriously dressed crowd, almost everyone would turn their heads to look at the two of them.
Someone who had just returned from overseas said softly, "Fourth Miss is so beautiful. She's the only one who's worthy of
standing beside Master White... but who's the one wearing a white dress beside her?"
Dora happened to hear these words. She stopped in her tracks and her expression almost froze.
Someone quickly said in a low voice,"... Don't talk nonsense. The one in a white dress is Fourth Miss!"
"Ah?!" The man was surprised. "Then... who is the one wearing the red dress?"
"She seems to be a new designer. It seems that Fourth Miss has a good relationship with her... Don’t mistake her for someone
else in the future!"
Dora tried her best to keep a smile on her face as if she had not heard the conversation. She brought Crystal to the center of the
banquet hall with a calm expression.
All the people around here were the top-level children and elders of the aristocratic families in City W. Crystal saw a lot of familiar
faces. Those people whom she was close to did not know her at all now.
"Dad." Dora's voice was filled with happiness. "I've told you before about a new friend that I've met recently. She's also here
today, so I brought her here to see you."
After two years, Crystal saw her father again.
Daxton did not seem to have changed much. Despite the passage of time, his figure was still tall and straight. He was dressed in
a loose black Tang costume and looked noble and dignified. However, the expression in his eyes grew even deeper. When he
looked over with his eyes, Crystal felt as if there was nothing she could hide.
It seemed that there was nowhere to hide.
This was the person who stood at the peak of power 20 years ago. Even though he had retired for many years, he was still
powerful. He had been in power for many years and no one dared to look directly at him.
Daxton's expression was very calm. He did not seem to notice that the person in front of him was somewhat similar to his
daughter who had died two years ago. He merely replied with a dull 'hmm' and said, "Since you have invited some guests over,
you must fulfill your duties as the host and properly entertain them."
