Chapter 223: Chapter 226: What kind of Lucas Family’s Miss are you!?
Translator: 549690339
“I don’t know her, I’ve never seen her at a banquet before.”
“Neither do I. I’ve no idea where she’s from. Could she have sneaked in?”
“Well, it’s possible.”
A few girls who wanted to curry favor with Zara Lucas were chattering away, helping Zara bully Joan Wellington.
So other girls thought that what Zara had just said was indeed a bit excessive.
But out of respect for the Lucas family, they didn’t dare speak up for Joan Wellington.
Joan Wellington was surrounded, her face showing a disgruntled expression.
Looking at the arrogant Zara, she was finding more and more difficult to suppress her inner fury.
She had previously investigated Lily Gray, so naturally she also had so understanding of Austin Lucas’s family.
She hadn’t previously rembered who Zara was, but when she heard Zara say that Lily Gray was her forr sister-in-law, she suddenly rembered Zara’s identity.
Humph, just an illegitimate daughter, who dared to show off in front of her!
Joan Wellington had been a little tyrant in the industry since she was a child and had never been subjected to such treatnt.
Seeing the contempt in Zara’s eyes, she couldn’t suppress her anger anymore.
“You do not know who I am, right?” She said with a stern face, “Well, let show you what I am capable of today!”

In the dance floor, a song had co to an end.
Dylan Wellington very gentlemanly held Lily Gray’s hand, bowing his head to kiss the back of her hand.
From the outsiders’ perspective, he was kissing her hand.
But in actuality, his lips never touched Lily Gray’s hand, but lightly brushed the inside of his own palm.
“Thank you for your favor, sister-in-law.” said Dylan Wellington to Lily Gray.
“Regarding the cooperation between Wellington Entertainnt and the Gray family, I will send soone directly to discuss it with you tomorrow. Rest assured, sister-in-law, these people will fully cooperate with the Gray family. I have sothing else to attend to, I’ll excuse myself.”
From the mont Lily Gray arrived, Dylan Wellington had been unusually enthusiastic.
Lily Gray thought that after dancing, it might not be so easy for her to slip away.
Who knew that as soon as the song ended, before she could find an excuse to leave, Dylan Wellington walked away.
After the opening dance ended, the dance floor was quickly filled again with dancing couples.
Dylan Wellington left the dance floor to join and chat with other important figures.
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Lily Gray picked up her skirt and walked out.
Just as she reached near the entrance of the banquet hall, she suddenly heard a familiar voice shouting aloud.
“I am a young lady from the Lucas family… I tell you, no one is allowed to touch ! If you touch , beware of the Lucas family’s reproach!”
It was unclear what had happened, but a large crowd surrounded the area.
Lily Gray, who was passing by the crowd felt a familiarity with the voice and upon hearing the words “Lucas family,” she couldn’t help but go over.
In the crowd, Joan Wellington was directing several waiters to forcefully drag out a young woman in a black evening gown.
The woman’s hair had been disheveled and covered half of her face.
Her clothing, which was to begin with, very revealing with a substantial amount of lace, had been pulled around resulting in a lot of her chest and back being exposed. If she had been tugged on a few more tis, a wardrobe malfunction could occur.
The female socialites surrounding the incident didn’t dare to utter a word.
Lily Gray thought Joan Wellington was throwing another tantrum.
Thinking of the help that the Wellington family had given her, she understood that such incidents would not bode well for Joan’s reputation; she couldn’t help but want to step forward to diate.
She had just approached Joan from behind and hadn’t yet had the chance to greet her.
Joan pointed at the disheveled woman and snarled: “Who do you think you are, acting as a Lucas lady! When I got to know Big Brother Ethan, you were nowhere to be seen. As for the Lucas family, the Wellington family only acknowledges the main branch.. You are just an illegitimate child from a branch family, how dare you make a scene at a Wellington family banquet!”
