Gwen's words irritated Brian to no end. Since when did he have to deal with such trivial matters?
“Mrs. Torrey, | suggest you know your place. Stop taking yourself too seriously,” Brian said bluntly with no
intention of holding back.
He hung up right after that.
On the other end of the line, Gwen's face darkened even more as she stared at the disconnected call. She hadn't
expected Brian's rejection on this matter. She had already shown off about the party to everyone.
How could she maintain her standing in the high society of Gleaston if the party didn’t go through?
Moments later, Gwen’s phone rang again. A member of the Gleaston’s high society, Tina Barton, had called, her
voice cheerful as she asked, “Mrs. Torrey, is it true Igor’s birthday party will be held at the Royal Hotel? My
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthusband says he wants to attend, too!”
The question hit too close to the mark. Gwen forced a smile and replied, “Of course, it’s true! Why would | lie
about that? Ariana is Brian's fiancée, and Igor is her brother. All we needed was a word from Brian to get a hall at

Mrs. Torrey, you're truly a blessed woman! We'll bring along a generous gift for you and Igor at the event.”
At the mention of gifts, Gwen's smile widened.
“Of course. Don’t worry. I'll make sure you're the first to be invited!”
“Thank you, Mrs. Torrey!”
Tina's flattery was satisfying to hear. But as soon as the call ended, Gwen's worry returned.
The Royal Hotel wasn’t a place anyone could book. The Torrey family couldn't even get a foot in the door with
their current social status. They couldn’t do anything if Brian refused to help.
Gritting her teeth, Gwen resolved to handle this herself. After all, who could turn down the future mother-in-law
of Brian Lodge?
Determined, Gwen went upstairs and adorned herself with her most expensive jewelry. Standing before the
mirror in a designer outfit, carrying a luxury handbag, and wearing dazzling jewelry, Gwen felt a renewed sense
of confidence.
Back at the cafeteria of Glea College, Ariana received news of Gwen's visit to the Royal Hotel.”
When Ariana heard the news, she nearly laughed out loud. Did she go alone?”
“She did!” Selena replied, snapping her phone shut. “You toldto keep an eye on the Royal Hotel, so | reached
out to a manager there. Turns out Gwen had just gone over to make a reservation and insisted on seeing the
venue herself.”
Ariana smirked knowingly. “I knew Brian wouldn't help her. This is going to be embarrassing. Let's just wait and

The Royal Hotel had long been a business hotel, hosting top entrepreneurs from Gleaston and abroad. Many
major business deals were struck here.
As soon as Gwen stepped out of her car, the hotel manager Jonathan Rhys Immediately recognized her. Stepping
forward, he greeted her with a professional smile, “Mrs. Torrey, we received your call earlier today.”
