Rosalind Blanchett and Kane Blanchett looked over simultaneously.
And saw Catherine Blanchett standing at the staircase entrance.
Rosalind Blanchett frowned slightly upon seeing Catherine Blanchett’s appearance at this mont.
At this mont, Catherine Blanchett seed to have reverted to her forr self.
She wore an elegant plain white long dress, her face adorned with exquisite makeup.
Although it’s been a few months since that incident, Catherine Blanchett’s hair has grown out a bit.
Yet, Catherine Blanchett was still wearing a wig.
Her lips curved slightly; apart from the cruelty and dimness in her eyes, Rosalind Blanchett almost thought Catherine Blanchett had changed her soul.
Seeing Catherine Blanchett dressed up like this, Rosalind Blanchett instantly beca alert.
Could Catherine Blanchett possibly still want to contend with her?!
Kane Blanchett didn’t expect Catherine Blanchett to suddenly appear and even dressed up.
Seeing Catherine Blanchett like this, Kane Blanchett began to ponder.
The Blanchett Family invested a lot of resources in Catherine Blanchett, and now not only have they not recovered their costs, they’ve also lost quite a bit.
Grumbles within the Blanchett Family had long been brewing, and Kane Blanchett, being a shrewd businessman, naturally didn’t want his investnt to go to waste.
Rosalind Blanchett saw Kane Blanchett seriously contemplating and panicked inside.
She hurriedly said, "Sister, do you also want to attend the Norwood Family’s banquet?"
Catherine Blanchett glanced at Rosalind Blanchett, with clear mockery in her eyes.
She seed to be ridiculing Rosalind Blanchett’s hypocritical words.
A trace of unwillingness flashed in Rosalind Blanchett’s eyes.
Kane Blanchett, hearing Rosalind Blanchett’s words, waved his hand, "No, she cannot attend the Norwood Family banquet."
If he really took Catherine Blanchett, Kane Blanchett couldn’t guarantee his position as the family head of the Blanchett Family would still be secure.
Taking Catherine Blanchett to disturb Selena Kensington?!
He wasn’t foolish enough to do such a thing.
Rosalind Blanchett felt a burst of joy at Kane Blanchett’s words.
She originally wanted to see Catherine Blanchett’s angry and resentful expression, but instead saw Catherine Blanchett unaffectedly walking down.
"Father misunderstood, I don’t intend to attend the Norwood Family banquet."
"Just that, the Blanchett Family has nurtured Lian’er for so long, but Lian’er couldn’t do anything for the Blanchett Family, which makes Lian’er deeply guilty."
After Catherine Blanchett finished speaking, she slightly lowered her head, hiding the malice in her eyes.
Kane Blanchett was sowhat surprised upon hearing Catherine Blanchett’s words.
But he was also gratified that Catherine Blanchett could understand this point; the Blanchett Family and Kane Blanchett had nurtured Catherine Blanchett for so long, and despite his sparse familial affections, Kane Blanchett still had so feelings for Catherine Blanchett.
"It’s good you understand, don’t act impulsively anymore."
Perhaps the lesson from last ti and the long confinent awoke Catherine Blanchett.
After all, Kane Blanchett did not want to make a loss-making deal, nor could he bear to discard Catherine Blanchett without her securing any benefits for the Blanchett Family.
"I can give you another chance."
"The Dalton Family seems interested in nurturing Second Young Master Dalton, Sidney Dalton. If you can be with Sidney Dalton, arranging a marriage alliance between the Blanchett Family and the Dalton Family, then you’ve done sothing good for the Blanchett Family."
Furthermore, Sidney Dalton might have the chance to beco the head of the Dalton Family in the future, which would make Catherine Blanchett a Dalton lady.
It wouldn’t lower her status.
Moreover, in this way, his Blanchett Family would have matrimonial ties with both the Norwood Family and the Dalton Family.
Wouldn’t that be wonderful?
Kane Blanchett thought quite blissfully.
Upon hearing Sidney Dalton’s na, a slight gleam flashed in Catherine Blanchett’s eyes.
Roxanne Sutton seed to be Sidney Dalton’s lover.
Though Sidney Dalton previously admitted under pressure that Roxanne Sutton was his girlfriend of many years.
But Catherine Blanchett couldn’t miss the intricacies within.
If she really was his girlfriend of many years, why would he only acknowledge it now?
Roxanne Sutton was rely one of Sidney Dalton’s lovers.
She truly believed she was sothing special.
Thinking of Roxanne Sutton’s previous warnings and threats, the malice in Catherine Blanchett’s eyes deepened.
Though she wasn’t interested in Sidney Dalton, she was very interested in the position of the Dalton lady.
Roxanne Sutton, don’t bla her.
People must climb higher.
She could only use this opportunity to rise again.
"Father, I will seize this opportunity well."
Catherine Blanchett said smilingly.
Rosalind Blanchett looking at Catherine Blanchett’s deanor knew Kane Blanchett still softened towards Catherine Blanchett.
Otherwise, how would her current state match Sidney Dalton?!
Seeing Catherine Blanchett seeming to rise once more while she would return to a state of neglect like before, Rosalind Blanchett felt a surge of unwillingness inside.
But she could only wait, as long as she established ties with the Norwood family, Catherine Blanchett could never overshadow her!

Several days later, the Norwood Family’s banquet arrived as scheduled.
Selena Kensington spent the whole day at Aethelgard’s Peak personally supervising with Herman Norwood.
Watching the staff at Aethelgard’s Peak gradually complete the venue setup, she finally relaxed her slightly sore shoulders.
Hope Norwood stepped up behind her, "Madam, it’s ti to change clothes."
Selena Kensington nodded, looking towards Herman Norwood, "Manager Norwood, I’ll leave the rest to you."
"Madam, rest assured."
Then, Selena Kensington left with Hope Norwood.
In Aethelgard’s Peak, Selena Kensington had a dedicated resting room.
Once she entered, the waiting hairstylist and makeup artist surrounded her.
"Wait a mont."
Selena Kensington said to them, then went into the changing room to switch into the evening gown she planned to wear to the banquet.
The silky ivory silk long gown clung to her waist and abdon, accentuating her graceful silhouette.
The lower skirt had slight pleats, and with a turn of her foot, it swirled gracefully.
A shawl of the sa color draped over her shoulders, cascading down to the hem.
Once she was dressed, Selena Kensington ca out.
She sat in front of the vanity mirror, and the waiting makeup artist and hairstylist gathered around.
"Madam, do you have any preference for today’s makeup and hairstyle?"
"...You decide."
Selena Kensington didn’t have many requirents for this matter.
"Alright, then we’ll start."
Then Selena Kensington was led into hairstyling and makeup.
Hope Norwood guarded on the side.
Selena Kensington sat in the chair for so long that she nearly fell asleep, yet they were still not finished.
She yawned slightly.
Only to find the movents on her head stopped.
She looked through the mirror, puzzled.
Sterling Norwood had appeared in the room at so unknown ti.
Upon seeing Sterling Norwood arrive, the makeup artist, hairstylist, and Hope Norwood all greeted him.
"Family Head."
Sterling Norwood approached, looking at Selena Kensington through the mirror.
His lips curved slightly, "Very beautiful."
Selena Kensington humd softly a few tis, "You say ’beautiful’ before it’s finished, such perfunctory!"
Her words had a sweet softness, carrying a hint of coquetry.
Sterling Norwood’s smile remained unchanged, "However you are, you look good."
Selena Kensington gently nudged him away, "Stop it, don’t interrupt ."
Then she noticed Sterling Norwood wearing the sa style of suit as her.
