A Trust-fund Baby

The Arrogant Old Lady Shaw

After entering the banquet hall, Diana walked up to Old Lady Shaw and greeted respectfully, "Happy

birthday grandma, I wish you good health and all the best..."

After seeing Diana, Old Lady Shaw nodded and said, “Find a place to sit..." Old Lady Shaw just looked

through Diana, and her attitude was completely indifferent.

Diana's second elder uncle Lennox scolded Diana, "Diana, What's the matter with you? Why are you

here so late? Don't you know that today is your grandma's 70th birthday?"

Diana said apologetically, "Sorry, I just came back from SKY City today, and I packed my luggage for a

long time..."

Lennox sneered, "Hmm, it seems that in your heart, your packing is more important than your

grandma's birthday..."

Seeing Lennox’s constant criticism of Diana, Sally couldn’t help but smirked and replied, “Brother

Lennox, how can we compare to you? Your family has a big business, and you are the second fiddle of

Shaw’s company. But we are in a bad situation. After Mentog was dead, who cared about us?"

As soon as Sally finished speaking, Old Lady Shaw suddenly snorted, "Huh, Sally, you mean to imply

that I'm partial and I'm doing something wrong, right?"

Sally sneered and pinched her nails, then said in an ironic tone, "Huh, Mom, how can I dare to speak ill

of you? When Mentog was alive, I didn't dare to do that, let alone that he was dead. I am an outsider,

who cares if we live or die..."

Old Lady Shaw narrowed her eyes. Lennox slapped on the table, “Sally! How can you talk to mom like

that? If you don't want to attend mom's birthday banquet, don't come here, you can go now! "

Sally sneered, "Heh, I'm leaving now! My son-in-law, Judson, was said to be an outsider and was

stopped outside by the Shaw Family. I am also an outsider, so I won't be embarrassed here anymore.

I'd better be a little self-conscious... "

Sally left after speaking. Sally was a typical snob, who tended to be a follower of the rich and powerful.

But despite her snobbery, she was not really stupid. Although Judson told her that he had no money,

Judson still had a relationship with the dignitaries in society. He was friends with Bruce, president of

Ray Group, and he also knew the boss of “Yanis” this afternoon. So even if Sally offended the Shaw

Family now, she didn't panic at all.

Diana was stunned when she watched Sally contradict the others. Is this Sally she knew? Wasn't Sally

meek and subservient in front of the Shaw Family before? And why did she defend Judson so much

now? But despite doubts, Diana felt quite comfortable seeing Sally defending Judson now.

"Well, Sally, we are all a family, why are you making trouble like this? Today is Mom's birthday, you and

Diana go and sit down..." Diana’s uncle Dexter tried to ease the atmosphere.

Dexter then spoke to Diana, "Diana, I heard that you sold your company. What are you going to do

next?"

Diana hesitated and said to Old Lady Shaw, "Grandma, I... can I go back to work in Shaw's company?"

Old Lady Shaw frowned, "Diana, the company's current economic situation is not very good now. I

welcome you back to work, but now the company does not have a suitable job position for you, and

there are no vacancies for the management post. Grandma can't let you be a small employee, right?"

When Diana heard this, her eyes dimmed, and then she smiled and said, "Well, it's okay, thank you

grandma, I... I will find a job by myself..."

Diana then took Sally to the seat in the distance where there was no one.

At this moment, not long after Diana left, she heard uncle Lennox behind her whisper, "She still wants

to come back. Is she coming back to share the wealth of our Shaw Family? If she is not married, she

can still do this. But she has been married now and Mentog was dead, so she has no reason to come

back. Our property cannot be given to outsiders casually. Anyway, I don't agree with this matter..."

Lennox didn't speak in a low voice, and Diana could just hear him. Diana trembled slightly and turned

to look at Lennox, "Uncle Lennox, you told me on purpose, right?"

Lennox waved his hand and said, "I just said casually. Didn't your grandma say that the company has

no position now? Of course, if you want to come over to be a small employee, I have no objection..."

Diana was so angry that her body was trembling, and she gave the Shaw Family members a

meaningful look. Lennox smiled indifferently and stared at her, while Dexter smiled and turned his head

aside, obviously not willing to pay attention to her. Old Lady Shaw got up and chatted with a partner of

the Shaw Family...

Diana understood it all in an instant. She quietly clenched her fist and said to Lennox, "UncleLennox,

uncle Dexter, don't worry, even if I starve to death, I won't come back to snatch your property!"

Diana walked far away after speaking. Sally pulled Diana's arm and looked at her daughter worriedly,

"Diana, don't take it seriously. Don't be afraid, you still have me and Judson by your side. From now on,

our family will live a peaceful life... we don’t have to seek help..."

Diana felt much better when she heard Sally's words. She nodded vigorously, "well, thank you, mom..."

Sally's attitude towards Judson made Diana feel much better. In fact, she really didn't care how much

money she earned. All she wanted was a plain happiness.

Sally pulled Diana to an empty table at the end of the banquet hall, "Diana, now you can see that the

Shaw Family didn't take you seriously at all. Since your father died, they have completely ignored you. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

In the main seat, they would rather allow outsiders to sit there than give us a place...Well, your father

was dead, no one cared about us..."

As Sally was talking, she became sadder, with tears fell from her cheeks. Diana quickly wiped her tears

with tissue and comforted her, "Mom, it's okay, you still have me and Judson by your side. Judson and I

will take care of you in the future..."

"Okay..." Sally nodded...

"Miss Shaw? Why are you here?" Just as Diana comforted Sally, she suddenly heard a voice in

surprise. Then two people walked in from the back of the banquet hall.

Diana turned her head and saw that it was Bruce in a black suit. Bruce was followed by the fat middle-

aged man George.

Diana looked at Bruce and was also a little surprised, "President Hill? Why are you here? Are you also

here for my grandma's birthday party?"

Bruce took a suspicious look at Diana, and then he looked at Old Lady Shaw who was in front of the

crowd before he understood what Diana meant. Then he said to Diana, "No, I just finished my business

with others upstairs, and I happened to see you when I was about to leave. Miss Shaw, is your

grandmother's birthday today?”

Diana nodded...

Bruce nodded, and then said to George, "Manager Konhey, since it's the birthday of Miss Shaw’s

grandmother, please go and congratulate her..."
