Chapter82
She suddenly came to her senses, and her cars turned red all at once.
“…Oh.”
A week later. Ophelia received an invitation.
The Madison family, a famous family from Minston.
Declan Madison’s seventieth birthday was held three days later.
Seeing her holding the invitation for a long time, Graham said, “If you don’t want to go, madam, you absolutely don’t have to pay any attention to it.”
There were plenty of invitations like Sunset Vista, but Mr. Winford didn’t even glance at them.
“No, I want to go,” Ophelia snapped back to her senses, curved her lips. into a smile, but her eyes were filled with coldness.
Graham was surprised and hesitated for a moment before saying, “As far as I know, that stepmother of hers seemed to be good friends with Mrs. Madison.”
A few days ago, she had just let Erin suffer such a big loss. If she really went to the banquet, the other party might take the opportunity to target her.
“Even though she came, was I still afraid of her?” Ophelia flicked her fingers, tossing the invitation aside, her smile cold and dangerous.
In fact, Graham was not wrong at all; Erin was up to something, and she

already knew what the other party was going to do.
-Because it had already happened once in a past life!
“Hubby, are you going to the Madison family’s banquet?” Ophelia asked.
“I won’t go,” Winford said, his expression unchanged.
The Madison family held a prominent position in Minston, and the patriarch of the Madison family was highly respected. At his birthday banquet, no one could afford to disrespect him.
But Winford was an exception.
His identity was such that the Madison family found him completely unqualified to be invited, and even Declan had to bend down to speak to
him.
Therefore, Ophelia was not surprised by this answer.
She rolled her eyes.
Her husband didn’t go? Then she felt relieved! There were some things she could do without worry…
Catching a glimpse of her small expression, Winford’s eyes narrowed slightly.
When the girl walked away, an invitation card appeared with a flick of his long fingers.
Unlike others, this invitation was handwritten, informing him that a huge surprise related to his young wife would be prepared for him at the Madison family’s banquet.
The invitation was casually tossed aside, and Winford said lightly, “Tell the Madison family that I would go, but I just hoped that the surprise they
mentioned would be satisfactory to me.”
Graham: “Yes.”
Three days later.
The Madison family banquet.
As soon as Ophelia appeared, she became the focus of public attention.
Many guests looked astonished and hurriedly asked the people next to
them.
“Whose daughter is this? Why haven’t I seen her before?”
In a corner not far away, Eliana, the daughter of the Madison family, was with Bessie, and a hint of jealousy flashed in both of their eyes.
“Wouldn’t that bitch dress normally like she used to? What a show–off?” Eliana said with jealousy.
This statement would leave any normal person speechless. What did Ophelia used to call her normal attire?
Today was not particularly grand, but rather a very ordinary appearance. However, with her own looks and temperament, no matter how casual she was, she would still leave people in awe.
It was just that Bessie was beside Eliana, so she naturally did not refute
this statement.
Bessie bit her lip and pulled Eliana, saying, “Let’s move away a bit; she would be unhappy if she saw me…”
Eliana snorted coldly, “Who is she? Why do you have to avoid her? I’m not saying this to you, but you are really too easy to bully. That bitch has already stepped on your head, and you still don’t know how to fight back!”

“Let’s go, I’ll help you vent your anger!”
Eliana and Bessie had always had a good relationship, and Eliana often heard from Bessie about how Ophelia had made her feel wronged.
She had always felt sympathy for Bessie, who, as the stepdaughter of the Greene family, could only be bullied by Ophelia.
Just now, Bessie had cried to her again, and she naturally felt quite angry about it.
Ophelia had not walked far when she was suddenly stopped by someone.
“Hey, isn’t that Ophelia? Dressed so flashy, I almost didn’t recognize her!”
Hearing those sarcastic words, Ophelia lifted her eyelids and saw Eliana in front of her, as well as the pitiful Bessie cowering behind her, and she was not surprised at all.
She tugged at her lip and looked at the elegantly dressed Eliana, her tone sincere and humble: “You flatter me; how could I compare to your elegance?”
Someone next to them couldn’t help but let out a laugh.
“You!” Eliana looked down at her outfit, her face turning pale. “Ophelia! Did you dare to insult me?!”
