The banquet hall was already filled with business celebrities from all over, some had even rushed from abroad to attend Bella Stuart’s coming-of-age ceremony.
Looking at this golden splendour of the banquet hall, Emily Walker couldn’t help but gasp. Originally, she felt that Baron Stuart’s private residence was already grand enough, but compared to the Stuart family’s real luxury mansion, it’s a world apart!
Once the two entered the banquet hall, they immediately attracted several eyes, all cast towards them.
Vivian Ferguson, who was in the depths of the hall entertaining distinguished guests, turned around at this moment upon hearing the noise.
When she saw her son entering with a strange woman, her expression abruptly paused, and the smile on her face instantly disappeared.
It was not until the two reached the center of the hall that Vivian Ferguson recognized the woman beside her son to be the girl named Emily Walker, her face immediately darkened.
She thought that no matter how much he acted out, he would have a limit. But now, he brought another woman to such an occasion in front of so many people – what would others say? Everyone knew that the Stuart family’s daughter-in-law-to-be was Camila Walker from Walker’s Financial Group.
He could take her anywhere, but today, it was at Stuart Manor.
Seeing Vivian Ferguson’s slightly gloomy expression, Emily instinctively lowered her eyes. If she could, she really wanted to turn around and leave.
Vivian Ferguson looked at Emily with an unhappy face, then shifted her gaze to Baron Stuart, glanced at the crowd around the corner of her eyes, and murmured in a low voice, “Are you determined to embarrass me?”
Fortunately, the Walker family hadn’t arrived yet. Now, he had better let the girl beside him leave quickly to avoid the embarrassment in front of so many people!
“Where is grandpa?” Baron Stuart ignored his mother’s words and instead asked with a stern voice.
Thinking of Zachary Stuart, Vivian Ferguson’s complexion improved a bit. With the old master there, she presumed her son wouldn’t make a fuss.
“He’s upstairs. He’ll be down soon.”
At this moment, a waiter passed by them; Baron Stuart took a glass of fruit juice and handed it to Emily.
Looking at the fruit juice in her hand, Emily finally looked up, somehow puzzled by him.
He gives a faint smile. From start to finish, she found his smile to be too mysterious, making her wonder what he intended to do tonight.
This was the Stuart family home, and presumably, their family gathering. What was she, an outsider, doing here?
From the moment they entered, many people in the hall noticed the woman next to Baron Stuart. They all started whispering, discussing in private who this woman was and why she was standing next to Baron Stuart.
Naturally, Vivian Ferguson noticed this as well and her expression appeared displeased.
“Mr. Stuart.” At this moment, a businessman from abroad came over. They, being born abroad, naturally didn’t know what Baron Stuart’s fiancee looked like.
Baron Stuart turned around and gave a slight smile to the young businessman friend, nodding in greeting.
“Is this beautiful lady your fiancée?” The man, speaking in English, gave Emily an admiring look.
At his words, Baron Stuart tilted his head to look at the woman beside him, his lips curved up in a perfectly mysterious and sexy smile, “My girlfriend.”
Although Emily didn’t understand much English, she understood this sentence. She widened her eyes in surprise and looked at the man beside her.
Vivian Ferguson at his side was naturally shocked as well. Did he just tell this stranger that this girl was his girlfriend?
“Baron Stuart! Do you have to be so outrageous!?” She growled quietly. If there weren’t so many people in the hall, she would have probably yelled out by now..
