Sumr noticed that Henry Stanton was in a good mood today, and with a sweet smile, she said, "Actually, it’s like this. I received two party invitations for tonight. One is for a party that Young Master Knight will attend, and the other is for Coralie Hughes’ birthday party, but they overlap in ti, so..."
Without thinking, Henry Stanton said, "Of course, you should go to the party Young Master Knight is attending! Sadie, I know you’re innocent, but you must distinguish between what’s important and what’s not."
"I know." Sumr nodded and said, "But isn’t Coralie engaged to Ryder Quinn? She specifically sent over the invitation. If I don’t go, I’m afraid she’ll ntion it to The Quinn family..."
Henry Stanton didn’t know that The Quinn family had already proposed annulling the engagent with the Hughes Family, and he montarily showed a conflicted expression.
Well, although the Hughes Family is also a prominent family, they can’t compare to Damian Knight. But with The Quinn family in the middle, it’s a different matter.
This is indeed a bit tricky.
After deliberately letting Henry Stanton wrestle with this for a while, Sumr said, "So I ca up with an idea. Let Clarissa co back and attend Coralie Hughes’ birthday party. This way, we won’t offend either side. What do you think?"
At the ntion of Clarissa Stanton, Henry Stanton was reminded of how, because of her, he almost lost a big deal with The Knight Corporation. His brows imdiately furrowed into two caterpillars.
In a displeased tone, he said, "That hopeless girl, letting her go to the party will only embarrass us!"
Sumr quickly persuaded, "But you can’t let your sister stay over there forever. She needs to get married, too. Aunt can stay there for reflection, but it’s best if you bring your sister back and educate her yourself. Otherwise, Aunt might lead her astray again..."
Henry Stanton’s heart wavered upon hearing this.
Recently, while cleaning up the company, he found out that Stella Monroe had bribed several board mbers. If Clarissa continues to stay with Stella, who knows if she’ll be influenced before she can properly reflect.
If things worsen, she won’t be able to get married.
If that’s the case, it’s better to bring her ho for reflection.
Thinking of this, Henry Stanton finally nodded in agreent, "Fine, let her co back! If she still can’t be taught well, I’ll have her shave her head and spend her life in a monastery!"
Sumr quickly flattered Henry Stanton, "I knew it, Dad loves his children the most. With you personally teaching her, I believe my sister will not go astray again. I’ll personally go to the monastery to bring her back."
Henry Stanton was very pleased with Sumr’s every word and deed. Girls shouldn’t hold grudges, especially family. Families shouldn’t hold overnight grudges.
Henry Stanton nodded appreciatively, "You’re the most sensible. All right, you can go pick her up. Rember to take a cushion for the road, don’t tire yourself out."
"Okay, Dad, I’ll go change clothes and then pick up my sister."
"Hmm, I’ll have the driver wait for you at the door. I’ll head to the company first."
"Goodbye, Dad." Sumr waved, watching Henry Stanton leave before turning around and leisurely going upstairs.
Of course, she didn’t truly want Clarissa to co back.
But since soone dug a hole, soone has to jump in to fill it.
Sumr did this with her own plans in mind.
However, just as Sumr went upstairs, the butler knocked on her room door.
Sumr opened the door to see it was the butler knocking. Her eyes showed no surprise.
The maid she had bribed earlier, Leah Lowell, had written her a list of Stella Monroe’s confidants, and the na Butler Chambers was on it.
With an innocent look, Sumr asked, "Butler Chambers, is there sothing you need?"
