Chapter 35 He Came
Margaret just entered the door, and there was no one to greet her. She stood alone quietly on the side, feeling completely out of place amidst the hustle and bustle bere Laney spoke up, ‘Maggie, you came back
Everyone’s gaze “swished‘ past and looked at Margaret.
The smile on Natasha’s face disappeared instantly, and she showed disgust, “How did Margaret
come back?”
Laney smiled and said, “Mom, today is your birthday, and I called Maggie to come back.”
Natasha frowned and said, ‘I didn’t need her to come back. Look at how outstanding Joselyn and Alice are, and then look at Margaret, a country bumpkin who can’t even hold her own. It’s simply embarrassing to have her at the banquet!”
Natasha really disliked Margaret.
Today at the birthday banquet, Alice and Joselyn both had exquisite makeup on, competing with each other for attention. They looked down on Margaret and then sweetly comforted Natasha, “Grandma, even though Margaret has returned, we shouldn’t just dismiss her. After all, she is your granddaughter.”
“Grandma, today is your birthday, don’t get angry for unworthy things.” Natasha laughed again, “Having Joselyn and Alice as granddaughters is enough for Grandma.” Implying, Natasha didn’t even recognize Margaret as her granddaughter. Margaret felt a chill in her heart. The Collins family was nothing but a destitute household back then, and it was her father who had started from scratch and earned the first family fortune for the Collins family.
After becoming wealthy, Dad sent his second younger brother, Andy, to school, making him the first college student. He also personally led his third younger brother, Zachary, into the steel business, turning him into a big boss.
But after father’s death, these people were not sad at all, instead they divided all of father’s properties among themselves.
These people were all sucking their father’s blood.
And Natasha was the shrewdest, whoever could bring glory to the Collins family, she liked them.
Margaret coldly watched these people, wondering how they had obtained all of this, and she would make sure they lost it.
Laney looked at Margaret and said, “Maggie, if your grandmother doesn’t want to see you, then you
shouldn’t be standing here. There are so many guests tonight, and we don’t have enough servants. Hurry up and go help with the work.”
Laney treated Margaret as a servant.
Margaret had no expression on her face as she obediently nodded, “Okay.”
Margaret walked over to the maid, and a maid ordered her, “Quickly take these wine glasses to
the kitchen.”
In the Collins family, even a maid could be bossed around by her.

Margaret didn’t say much, she walked out while holding a glass of wine.
At that moment, there was a commotion in the ear, “Look, Mr. Hawthorne is here!”
Samson came.
Tonight, Samson wore a handmade black suit, with a sparkling tassel brooch pinned on the pocket of his suit. It was truly luxurious and distinguished.
He walked in with steady steps, and the sparkling crystal chandelier above his head cast an unattainable dazzling golden light on him. Even a casual glance from his cold eyes was a stunning sight.
Samson
attended Natasha’s
80th birthday banquet,
causing a sensation.
Alice happily ran over and grabbed
grabbed Samson’s arm, “Samson, you’re here.”
This time, Samson did not push Alice away.
Natasha had a big smile on
her face and said, “Mr. Hawthorne, welcome.*
Samson nodded politely, “Natasha, happy birthday. This is the birthday gift I got for you.”
Robert stepped forward and opened a brocade box, inside of which was a famous painting
Natasha’s eyes lit up, filled with immense surprise. “Mr. Hawthorne, is this the ‘Noble Ladies‘ by
the ancient Master Walters?”
Robert nodded, “Yes.”
Over the past few years, the Collins family has been thriving with the help of Samson. Natasha, too, has developed a taste for antiques and famous paintings. She had been searching for this painting, “Noble Ladies,” for a long time, and now Samson has brought it to her.
Wow.
Everyone gathered around, “Mr. Hawthorne really went all out, this “Noble Ladies” painting truly one of a kind.”
Natasha laughed happily and said, “Mr. Hawthorne, you really have a kind heart.”
Alice looked up at Samson with her bright little face, her eyes filled with admiration. Men like Samson, who were wealthy and willing to put in effort, were truly captivating and made people’s hearts flutter.
Alice smirked, “Samson, thank you.”
A few business executives gathered around at this moment, “Mr. Hawthorne and Alice are truly a perfect couple. Does Mr. Hawthorne’s attendance at Natasha’s 80th birthday celebration today mean that we will soon be toasting to their wedding?”
“It wouldn’t be long before we couldn’t call her Alice anymore, but instead, we would have to call her Mrs. Hawthorne:”
Andy and Laney also walked over at this time. With Andy’s current status, he couldn’t reach these executives. The collaboration proposal sent by the Collins family a few days ago was rejected by them. He smiled and said, “Mr. Guzman, Mr. Olson, you will have to have a few more drinks later.”
Mr. Guzman smiled and said, “Mr. Collins, tomorrow you will bring the cooperation plan over, and we will work together a lot.”
Andy was surprised and said, “Really? Thank you so much, Mr. Guzman.

Mr. Olson laughed and said, “Mr. Collins, we were not fortunate enough to have a daughter like Alice.”
Natasha tightly held Alice’s little hand and said, “That was Alice, who was the lucky star of our Collins family.”
Andy and Laney were overjoyed, and when Samson came to attend the Collins family’s birthday banquet, they were even more thrilled. They could hardly imagine how glorious it would be when Samson became their son–in–law.
Alice, who was surrounded by stars, also felt that her life had reached its peak. Samson, this man, could satisfy a woman’s every vanity.
Alice looked at Samson with stars in her eyes.
Samson glanced at Alice with his handsome eyes, his gaze gentle.
Margaret held her glass and watched them. Samson and Alice stood in the dazzling center of the lights, being worshipped by the crowd. This was the supreme glory that Samson had brought to Alice.
He doted on a woman, truly doted on her to the core.
Margaret remembered years ago want you.”

you away,

She still doesn’t understand why he said he wanted her Teddy Bear and then didn’t want her
anymore.
Margaret drooped her feathers and turned away, her demeanor filled with sadness. At that moment, Samson looked up and saw the slender figure of Margaret leaving. Several executives followed his gaze and also caught sight of Margaret’s figure. “Mr. Hawthorne do
you know that girl?”
Alice’s heart tightened, it was Margaret again!
Soon, Samson’s indifferent and cool voice sounded, “I didn’t know.”
I don’t know.
Alice’s heart sank again, and she didn’t even know what she was nervous about. Samson didn’t care about this Margaret who came from the countryside at all!
Alice looked at Laney, who nodded. The show she had prepared for tonight had already begun.
Margaret took the wine glass to the kitchen, when a maid said, “Quickly take this bowl of bird’s nest to the room, Mrs. Second will want to drink it later.”
The second lady is Laney.
The maid asked her to go to the room to deliver the bird’s nest.
