The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon!-Chapter 29 - Raising the Curtain
Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Raising the Curtain
Chapter 29 -29: Raising the Curtain
Azura Loomis, after learning that Scarlett Garrison had chosen a black full-skirted gown, directly selected a white ostrich feather diva dress, which further accentuated her naturally delicate and gentle features, making her appear even more pure and graceful.
Lucas Jennings and his brothers were clearly amazed by Scarlett Garrison’s style earlier, but they couldn’t praise her aloud for fear she’d get conceited.
Seeing Azura Loomis now, they had no such reservations, enthusiastically crowding around her, showering her with compliments.
Azura Loomis seemed like the true princess of the Jennings Family, her eyes subtly glancing at Scarlett Garrison with a hint of pride and ostentation.
Scarlett Garrison, however, didn’t even glance in this direction, engrossed in discussing with her stylist how to simplify her hairstyle.
Azura Loomis: …
Azura Loomis slightly lowered her eyes, although she still wore a faint smile, the earlier happiness was visibly gone.
Lucas Jennings saw this and quickly asked, “What’s wrong, Azura?”
“Nothing.” Azura Loomis shook her head, her voice somewhat low, “You all better stop surrounding me with compliments, today Scarlett is the protagonist; she might feel unhappy seeing this.”
Adam Jennings frowned immediately upon hearing this, “What does her happiness have to do with us? You’re the sister who grew up with us.”
Lucas Jennings nodded in agreement,
“Right, she’s just relying on her recent return, and even grandpa likes her.”
Even so, they didn’t dare to openly mock her anymore, only murmured quietly.
Azura Loomis’s eyes flickered, and she softly inquired about their meeting with Scarlett Garrison.
In her view, Scarlett Garrison’s temper wasn’t something that could be easily appeased with a few words to return home.
She had expected Scarlett Garrison to stubbornly refuse to return home today, causing the Jennings Family to lose face, blaming it on Scarlett’s issue.
Too bad.
She just came back like that.
Lucas Jennings, seeing her curiosity, didn’t think about hiding anything and told her everything Luca Jennings had said.
Azura Loomis was dumbfounded.
She hadn’t expected her uncle to go that far for Scarlett Garrison.
Indeed, a biological daughter is different.
She smirked coldly in her heart, but outwardly she advised, “Make sure not to let grandpa know about these things, or else if he finds out that uncle is willing to abandon us for Scarlett, he’ll be upset.”
Saying this, she sighed pretentiously with deep implications, “The family was doing just fine before, who knows why it suddenly became this chaotic.”
Lucas Jennings and his brothers, under Azura Loomis’s hint, also felt that it was Scarlett Garrison’s return that threw the house into disarray.
For a moment, the awe and determination to approach Scarlett Garrison, which had just risen within them, faded away instantly.
Seeing this, Azura Loomis decided to add more fuel to the fire, quietly lamenting, “I hope Scarlett will behave maturely now that she’s back.”
Lucas Jennings’s expression, once full of dissatisfaction, turned a bit complicated, and after a while, he mumbled quietly, “She didn’t seem to have lived well in the Garrison Family… maybe we should bear with it if she doesn’t go too far.”
He felt uneasy thinking about Scarlett Garrison living in that shabby little rental.
Azura Loomis: ???
…
The dinner party was scheduled to start at 7:30 PM.
The entire Jennings Family garden was illuminated in advance, and at dusk, the lights in the Jennings Family mansion lit up all at once. Various light strips adorned the garden, making the mansion look as magnificent as a castle from afar.
Before seven o’clock, luxury cars began arriving outside the Jennings Family mansion, and soon, elegant gentlemen and ladies were stepping out, dressed in an array of tuxedos and evening gowns.
Old Sir Jiang mostly invited families who had close ties and frequent interactions with the Jennings Family, each a prominent figure in Sea City or even nationwide.
Most of the young attendees accompanied their parents, while a few arrived alone with gifts, shouldering specific tasks.
Just by looking at the scale of this banquet, it already left many in awe.
Isolde Garrison, stepping out with Father Garrison and Mother Garrison, was wide-eyed upon seeing these people.
Some were individuals Father Garrison could never ingratiate himself with, while the top-tier celebrities present were ones Isolde could only admire through social media.
“Our Isolde is truly remarkable, managing to get an invitation to the Jennings Family event. Truly our little lucky star,” Timothy Garrison looked at his daughter, his eyes full of approval.
After the Jennings Family abruptly canceled their cooperation, Timothy Garrison had all but given up on his ambitions for the company, yet he wasn’t willing to let go of this opportunity to connect with the Jennings Family.
Upon hearing his wife and daughter secured invitations to the Jennings Family banquet, he was eager to try and regain the Jennings Family’s favor tonight.
Emma White, seeing her husband poised for a big endeavor, felt slightly uneasy. She pulled her daughter aside, whispering,
“Isolde, should we first update your father? If by chance we discover later that the Jennings Family’s eldest daughter is truly… your father will be unprepared.”
Previously, when the Jennings Family canceled their cooperation with the Garrison Family, Isolde and Emma White worried Timothy would blame them, so they kept the fact that Scarlett might be the lost daughter of the Jennings Family from him.
Timothy Garrison was attending tonight solely to seize the chance to reconnect with the Jennings Family.
The Garrison Family trio stood at the entrance for a short while before someone came out from inside.

The person was Lydia Patterson, dressed in a custom high-end suit and quite handsome, someone who had recently confirmed a relationship with Isolde Garrison.
The Patterson Family was a well-known family in Capital Metropolitan with considerable influence; however, Lydia Patterson was merely a young master from a branch of the Patterson Family. Years ago, he was tasked with expanding the market in Sea City, and it’s only in recent years that he began to firmly establish his foothold.
Originally, a branch from the Patterson Family hadn’t much standing in Sea City, but people remained courteous given their status in Capital Metropolitan, allowing the Patterson Family a barely-held position in the elite circles.
Thus, the Patterson Family had always attempted to find a local wealthy family for Lydia Patterson to form an alliance through marriage.
Lydia Patterson initially selected Scarlett Garrison since Scarlett liked him and he also had quite a favorable impression of her.
However, a few days ago, the Garrison Family suddenly revealed that Scarlett Garrison was adopted, and that her biological parents were poor residents from deep in the mountains.
Lydia Patterson immediately dismissed all thoughts about Scarlett Garrison and instead began a relationship with Isolde Garrison.
When Isolde requested him to get tonight’s invitation, Lydia Patterson found it difficult at first.
By a stroke of luck, his second uncle’s family unexpectedly encountered trouble yesterday and couldn’t attend, leaving the invite open for the Garrison Family…
Yes, it was Lydia Patterson’s second uncle’s family who faced trouble from the Silva Family last night.
Had Lydia Patterson known the circumstances and who caused trouble for his uncle, he probably wouldn’t have so boldly brought the Garrison Family to the Jennings Family banquet tonight.
As another wave of light spread overhead from inside the mansion, everyone simultaneous began heading in following the light path.
This official welcome banquet for the return of the Jennings Family’s eldest daughter finally formally commenced.
