Seeing Tyson found her a burden, Elaine went off to the side without another word. Julio saw this and couldn't help frowning. "Mr. Hayes, Ms. Elaine doesn't seem to be giving you much face." "Let her make trouble." Tyson said coldly, "She'll soon know that the star of tonight is not her." Anyway, the Lynn family's assets will be in my grasp in a month. If Elaine is disobedient, she won't be stepping out of the Hayes family door in the future. "Ms. Elaine, I didn't expect you to come today. Your dress is so beautiful. Where did you have it custom-made?" "Ms. Elaine, why did you come over by yourself? Why isn't Mr. Hayes with you?" The wealthy ladies' topics were mostly these. Elaine knew these people wanted to get information about Tyson from her. She maintained her superficial politeness and smile. "Tyson has work to attend to, and I was getting bored. But tonight's protagonist is Ms. Rivers. Shouldn't everyone go greet Ms. Rivers?" Elaine had already figured out how to deal with Eliza. What does a country bumpkin like Eliza, who only halfway squeezed into high society, understand? So what if Eliza is the daughter of the Sue family? Without orthodox training, she's just a joke on an occasion like this. Elaine had deliberately dressed so nobly and elegantly today precisely to make Eliza understand the gap between them. Sure enough, hearing Elaine's words, the surrounding ladies walked toward Eliza. Eliza disliked socializing, and seeing so many people coming toward her, she knew it must be Elaine's doing. However, starting with Elaine was also an opportunity to probe Tyson. Eliza glanced at Nolan beside her. She lowered her voice and said, "In a moment, go greet Tyson. It's best if you bring him over. I'll create a little commotion here." "Okay." Seeing Nolan about to leave, Elaine stepped forward directly and asked magnanimously, "Nolan, why are you leaving? Don't tell me you're in such a hurry to leave just because you saw me?" Hearing this, Eliza stepped forward. "Ms. Elaine, long time no see."Seeing Eliza take the initiative to greet her, Elaine also put on a fake smile and said, "Ms. Rivers, it really has been a long time. I remember Ms. Rivers used to be just an unfavored daughter of the Rivers family, and now you're the daughter of the overseas Sue family. Congratulations. Most people don't have Ms. Rivers' good luck." How could the surrounding people not hear the sarcasm in Elaine's words? But they were here for the drama, so no one spoke. Eliza just smiled faintly. "Ms. Elaine is right, everyone has their own fate. Who knows what will happen next? I heard Ms. Elaine is also marrying my uncle-in-law next month. I haven't had the chance to congratulate Ms. Elaine. Congratulations, Ms. Elaine, on getting your wish and finally marrying into the Hayes family." ...Only, she was marrying Tyson, not Nolan. Everyone else understood the meaning in Eliza's words, but no one spoke. Hearing what Eliza said, Elaine suppressed the anger in her heart. Instead, she tried to elevate her own status. "That is true. Who would have thought we would become family? Next month, I'm afraid Ms. Rivers will have to call me 'Auntie'." In terms of seniority, Elaine was indeed Nolan's aunt. But Eliza just smiled. "How would I dare call Ms. Elaine 'Auntie'? That would make Ms. Elaine sound old. But Ms. Elaine, Uncle-in-law is only a general manager at the company. I'm afraid Ms. Elaine will have to call me 'Madam'. That feels so formal. In front of outsiders, how about Ms. Elaine still calls me Ms. Rivers, and I'll call you Ms. Elaine?" Hearing Eliza's words, Elaine felt a knot of frustration in her chest that she couldn't release. The surrounding ladies didn't expect their conversation alone would be so exciting. Not far away, Nolan had already walked up to Tyson. The two were clinking glasses, looking like a good uncle and nephew, but only they knew the undercurrent flowing between them. Eliza's gaze kept drifting toward Nolan and Tyson. She didn't know when Nolan would be able to get any information from Tyson, so she could only stall Elaine first. Elaine had no idea what Eliza and Nolan were really trying to do this time. She just thought Eliza and Nolan were holding such a grand engagement party merely to overshadow her. After all, they announced their engagement right after her and Tyson's wedding news came out.
