Chapter 342 Play Innocent

Maura only asked the servant to bump into that guest, and she didn't even mention compensation. That was a diamond watch!

Even if he sold himself, he wouldn't be able to pay for the diamond watch of the Stella family!

"No, not me!"

The servant ran over and said anxiously.

"Bastard! Who gave you permission to yell in front of the guests?" Maura realized something and tried to stop.

But it was too late.

"It's Ms. Maura Campbell!"

The servant was so nervous that his voice cracked.

"Ms. Maura Campbell asked me to bump into Ms. Stella. She said she wanted Ms. Stella to make a fool of herself at the banquet! Ms. Maura Campbell asked me to do so!" cried the servant.

The eyes of the guests all fell on Maura.

"You're talking nonsense!"

Maura went up and slapped the servant.

The expressions of the rest of the Campbells turned dark.

"Ms. Maura Campbell?"

Athena covered her mouth in surprise, and tears glistened in her beautiful eyes. "We just met for the first time, and I have never offended you before. Why did you do this? The Stella family and the Campbell family have always been on good terms..."

She knew how to play innocent and pitiful, too.

"Chelsea..." Janice was torn between Athena and Maura.

She was the one who spoiled Maura.

But Chelsea was quite dear to Rose.

If Rose found out about this, she would undoubtedly take Chelsea's side according to her personality...

"Madam Campbell." Athena interrupted Janice with tears in her eyes, "Today is the wedding anniversary of you and Sir Campbell. I'll go since Ms. Maura Campbell won't be happy if I'm here. When you get to Mailand, let's have a private get-together."

With that said, Athena walked toward the gate before Janice could respond, looking aggrieved.

"Chelsea! Why are you playing innocent?" Maura almost went mad.

But Athena didn't even turn her head.

Then the guests at the banquet looked at Maura somewhat strangely.

Among them, Sadie, Gabe's mother, was naturally included.

So Maura hated Chelsea so much?

Then how much of what Maura just told her about Chelsea was true?

Sadie glanced at Byron.

She knew about the relationship between Athena and Byron.

Based on the way Byron defended Chelsea, it was clear he wanted to be with her.

No...

Sadie felt she had to make the first move this time for her son!

Then she retreated quietly to the back of the crowd, not caring about her image as a lady, held up the hem of her dress, and chased after Athena.

"Ms. Stella."

Seeing Athena's back, Sadie called her.

Athena stood still and turned her head, and her eyes reddened. She looked extraordinarily aggrieved and very lovable.

"Mrs. Sadie Chambers, what's the matter?"

"You can just call me Aunt Sadie if you don't mind. That sounds closer!" Sadie said lovingly, "I didn't expect Maura to be so spoiled. You must feel wronged." Athena lowered her eyes and said nothing.

"All right. Forget it. Chelsea, how about we exchange contact information? I'd like to invite you for afternoon tea once in a while if that's all right with you!" Sadie took out her phone. She turned on her phone, ready to save the number, not giving Athena a chance to say no.

Athena approved Sadie's friend request on WhatsApp.

"Are you free tomorrow morning? I know there is a restaurant that serves delicious and nutritious breakfasts. How about we have breakfast together tomorrow?"

Sadie was visibly eager.

"Sorry. I'm not free these days."

Sadie was a little frustrated but not discouraged.

"It's okay. I'll invite you when you have time."

"Thank you." Athena nodded and said, "Mrs. Sadie Chambers, the driver is still waiting for me, so I'll take my leave first."

"Wait!"
