HEIRESS REBORN: MARRYING HER EX-FIANCÉ-Chapter 92: Lilian’s pity (1)

Upon the arrival of her elder brother who she had quite forgotten his existence from time to time, Arabella couldn’t explain the amount of humiliation she felt within her.

He was not the same elder brother from her memories of him years ago.

Completely different, and she was the same person who claimed boldly to the madams that her family was trying to take easy with her elder brother’s recovery.

Arabella’s face flushed in shame when she had felt the stinging gazes from behind at her elder brother’s appearance. It also didn’t help that the birthday banquet was broadcasted live, and she couldn’t imagine the reactions of her fans and passersby watching the livestream.

Although her mother was the celebrant of the banquet, she would receive a fair amount of attention as a popular actress, if not more than her mother.

When Arabella had noticed her elder brother’s attention on her parents’ mostly, she was slightly relieved because she hadn’t want her humiliation to deepen, especially with the shameless Madam Hitson looking for trouble for her family, particularly her mother.

Her elder brother’s arrival had surely taken away the attention from her, and she could order her manager to deal with the reactions on social media from blowing up to avoid any scandal.

Arabella felt she was on the right track to dodge her reputation from being damaged, but who would have expected the daughter of the troublesome Madam Hitson to stop her brother from leaving?!

The latter even condemned her elder brother and cousin for Liam, a mere adopted son of the Kingston family.

At the moment, Arabella couldn’t hate the Hitson family’s madam and daughter more than this! It seemed to be in their family’s gene and bloodline to be this upsetting!

Meanwhile, Lilian’s words were very unexpected, that there was a brief silence in the group. Madam Hitson looked at her daughter in a whole new level as if she was meeting her for the first time.

Her daughter was normally smart with her head out of the clouds, and would even caution her at times about her disturbing nature.

Why did her daughter suddenly speak up for the adopted son of Lucinda? And even rebuked the actual son for ignoring him?

Had this adopted son cast a spell on her daughter while she was not looking?!

As if that was not enough, Lilian had to call out on the President Kingston!

Madam Hitson knew she was a troubling person by nature, but she definitely knew who to offend and who not to offend.

Lucinda was one who she could offend, as they had known each other for a long time and married into families of similar standings. Though the gap between Kingston family and Hitson family was very wide, Lucinda’s husband was just a mere managing director of the Kingston entertainment company.

President Kingston, on the other hand, was one who she nor her family could afford to offend.

Knowing the severity of her daughter’s actions, Madam Hitson tried to laugh them off.

’’Lilian...’’ She wanted to warn her daughter while casting worrying glances at the big buddhas before them

’’Mother, don’t stop me.’’ Lilian immediately stopped her mother from speaking. ’’You’ve always taught me the etiquette of basic courtesy. President Kingston and First young master Kingston simply lack it.’’ She pointed out with a sneer.

*gasp*

’’My word....’’

’’Oh dear....’’

The spectating guests who were within the hearing range all stared at the Young miss Hitson in a completely new light. She was quite bold to offend the President Kingston.

Compared to years ago, President Kingston had more power and influence than ever. The Kingston corporation had reached a whole new level to the point that Tales would even globally recognize its worth, and even the President Kingston, behind the astounding growth. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Didn’t the Young miss Hitson fear that her family’s business could be ruined because of her rudeness?

The madams behind inwardly made a mental note to distance themselves from the Hitson family. Some with intentions of having an engagement silently withdrew their goals of marriage.

Their families couldn’t afford to offend the President Kingston for the Hitson family.

As for Lilian, she lifted her chin higher and squared shoulders, feeling that she wasn’t wrong in any way.

She couldn’t handle how first love was being ignored blatantly.

No matter the blood relations, Liam was still someone from the Kingston family. Why should he be ignored this way?

Because he was a mere actor with no reputed family?

Lilian had always admired how he worked hard to reach his current height of career. She had always been watching him silently and loving his humble gestures to young misses like her.

He had never been arrogant, despite an adopted son of the Kingston family. Even when he addressed himself with his full name on TV, it was never Liam Kingston, but Liam Smith.

His humbleness knew no bounds, and Lilian had silently admired him for that.

Unlike President Kingston, who many had always been cautious around, just like her mother now.

Just because of the latter’s family standing, no one could rebuke her for being rude as a younger generation for not attending her elders’ birthday banquets.

Frankly speaking, President Kingston just had to inherit old money and wealth from her parents’ and ancestors’ hard work. Liam, her first love, on the other hand, had to work hard for his current success.

The President’s title was just a fancy name to the hidden laziness.

This woman did not deserve the Tales’ award. Her Liam did!

’’Lilian!’’ Madam Hitson anxiously glanced at Ayana and Noah, who have been staring at her daughter in silence.

’’I said nothing wrong, mother.’’

’’You....’’ Madam Hitson almost spat out blood in anger at her daughter’s stubbornness. Lilian had always been sensible until now. That adopted son must have truly cast a spell on her daughter. Perhaps after this birthday banquet, she would take her daughter to see a spiritual shaman immediately!

Right now, she only had to placate the entire situation for her daughter’s sake and her family’s.

’’President Kingston, First young master, I apologize in Lilian’s stead.’’ Madam Hitson tried to laugh the situation off once more. ’’She’s just a bit confused at the moment. First young miss spoke of the first young master’s recovery moments ago and now the first young master is here, looking all handsome and healthy.’’ She knew how to twist words from left to right, and right to left.

Her daughter couldn’t take all the blame. It was Lucinda and her family’s fault for not being up to date about the first young master!

What she wanted to use against her nemesis, she might as well use the words for her daughter’s sake.

And she was speaking the truth. The first young miss’s words, despite all the long grammar, just mentioned the first young master’s recovery.

Women like them in wealthy families have always hidden daggers behind their words. Even if they wanted to convey their honest thoughts, it was etiquette to speak as eloquently with fluent words as possible.

It wasn’t all the time Madam Hitson abide by etiquette. She loved being straightforward and blunt, unlike the fake Lucinda.

’’Are you blaming Arabella for your daughter’s bad manners then?’’

However, Madam Hitson never imagined she would meet her match in terms of bluntness, and that was the President Kingston.
