NovelAppChapter 62 The Birthday Celebration
Lydia and Queenie nearly couldn’t rein in their expressions upon hearing Anna’s words, but Lydia
pressed on. “Nicole is back too. According to Queenie, she is currently working with Gardner
Corporation. That’s why I came to invite you too.”
“Nicole?” Anna asked in mild surprise when she heard that particular name. She had heard about what
had happened at F&M Apparel’s annual dinner, and she remembered that Nicole was Lisa. Upon
hearing Nicole’s name, Anna’s expression softened slightly. Before she married her husband, Anna had
been a somewhat famous fashion designer. However, she gave up her career as a designer because
she had a new family. When she finally had time on her hands, she had already lost the drive she once
had during her youth.
Colton knew that deep down, she regretted not being able to continue pursuing her dream as a
designer, so after Gardner Corporation had stabilized its footing, he insisted on making the corporation
blaze a path in the fashion industry.

added.
“Mom, it’s Lisa. Let’s go to the party,” Wendy said, hastily pulling on her mother’s hand when she heard
Lisa’s name. If Lisa wouldn’t agree to her brother’s request, she would ask her personally instead. If
Wendy could get Lisa to design her gown, she would be the talk of the town when she wore it to her
graduation.
Anna knew what her daughter was thinking of course, and she gave an exasperated laugh. She looked
at the two women in front of her and nodded. “All right,” she answered.
Seeing that Anna agreed at last, the smile on Lydia’s face turned even more simpering. A brief
exchange later, she left with Queenie.
After working the entire day, Nicole seemed distracted as she sat inside her office. Lydia, clear her
mother’s name? That was such a laughable thought. She didn’t believe it one bit.
But now that Queenie had mentioned that, Nicole wanted to see just what sinister motive they were
hiding!
…
All the lights inside the Anderson Residence were on when night fell. As Queenie was Colton’s fiancée,
plenty of famous figures from various industries and circles attended the party, all due to her high
status. The venue was stuffed to the brim with important figures from Goldwick and Lumore’s business
industry. When they arrived, they received another piece of news: the eldest daughter of the Anderson
Family, Nicole, was the legendary Lisa.
Now, this gaggle of people who wanted to use the Gardners for their own gains became even more
enthusiastic.
Nicole entered the premises through the main entrance. She was the daughter of William’s first wife,
and was thus the eldest daughter of the Anderson Family. Although she disliked this title, she couldn’t
allow anyone to look down on her. Today, Nicole didn’t dress herself up too much, having immediately
made her way to Anderson Residence after work.
The moment she stepped onto the grounds, Nicole saw the noisy crowd fawning over each other. The
massive lawn was teeming with guests, and there were hordes of luxury cars parked by the entrance.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that Nicole was here, the bustling venue turned far quieter as everyone’s gazes shifted to her.
Many people had seen Nicole’s true face during F&M Apparel’s annual dinner, so although she wasn’t
dressed up as fancily as she was that time, they still instantly recognized her.
“That’s the Andersons’ eldest daughter. I heard that five years ago, due to some money…”
The woman who said that was instantly cut off.
“Don’t just run your mouth; she’s the Chief Designer of F&M Apparel, Lisa!”
That woman promptly shut her mouth at that. Although everyone was here to suck up to Lydia and
Queenie, they couldn’t afford to offend F&M Apparel.
Although the whispers were soft, Nicole still heard everything. She showed no embarrassment on her
face. Instead, she lifted her lips into a small smile and slowly made her way forward.
“Nicole.” William had a smile on his face when he saw Nicole had come home. He tried to stop her, but
Nicole pretended not to see him. Instead, she headed straight for Lydia.
William’s smile stiffened. He had been complimented repeatedly earlier because many people already
knew about Nicole’s identity as Lisa, making his ego grow inflated. But now, Nicole treated him like he
was thin air.
Nicole’s gaze fell upon Lydia. She raised an eyebrow and immediately asked the question she had.
“Ms. York, is there something that you want to tell me?”
