Chapter 320: Lily, You Are Just a Mistress
When Lily heard this, she thought the Roberts family brothers were really incredibly arrogant.
Even at this point, David still acted superior, like he was doing her a favor.
Did he really think being David's sister was something to be proud of?
Lily was so speechless that she didn't say anything for a while, and David thought she was hesitating.
So he continued, "Lily, I know you came back to the Roberts family before because of the inheritance our parents left behind, and you didn't want to give it to Sophie. As long as you sincerely come back to the Roberts family this time, and we act like a family again, like before, I'll definitely treat everyone equally and won't favor Sophie anymore."
He now realized that Sophie was completely useless to the Roberts family and only held them back.
"No, you're lying. It's because you saw that Emily and I have a good relationship, and you want to use me to keep Emily on your side."
Lily directly exposed David's scheme.
After she finished speaking, she saw Emily's expression change.
She gave Emily a reassuring look, then continued, "Mr. Roberts, do you really think everyone else is stupid? You slap someone and then offer them candy, and they'll eagerly come back to you?"
She was a person, not a dog.
Maybe in previous years, she was just an obedient dog in her brothers' eyes.
"Lily, do you think everyone is as petty as you? I've already given you a way out, and you're not taking it. Don't regret it later."
David's voice sounded like it was squeezed out through his teeth, and then he hung up.
Lily looked up at Emily. "David is very arrogant at home, too. He thinks everything he does is right, and everything others do is wrong."
That's why he called her now. Even though he wanted to use her to win over Emily, he still acted superior.
Lily thought the other brothers were no different—they were all taught by David, so their personalities weren't much better.
Emily's eyes turned red with anger. "I'm sorry."
"Don't apologize to me. They've been treating me this way for more than just a day or two. You need to stay sharp at today's birthday party. Both David and Mrs. West are difficult to deal with."
Lily picked up the white dress from the box and changed into it.
But she wouldn't let David complete the artificial intelligence project with the West family's help. Otherwise, how could she force Sophie and the people behind her to make a move?
Once those people made a move, she could find clues.
Lily, Emily, and Zoey set off together to the studio to get styled.
When Emily arrived, she realized something was off. The owner of this styling studio was hard to book, and she couldn't have gotten an appointment.
But the driver had brought them here, so she knew without guessing that it was Dennis's arrangement.
After they finished their makeup and styling, Emily couldn't hold back and told Lily about it.
Lily was stunned. During this time, Dennis had been sending her messages every day.
Most of them were trivial things, like what he did in meetings today, or who he went drinking with for business entertainment at night.
Dennis also sent things over every day. Even though she'd refused many times, he kept sending them.
She could have just deleted Dennis's contact information, but she didn't. She just didn't reply to his messages.
How could she forget someone she'd liked for so long?
Lily came back to her senses. "Since someone wants to be taken advantage of, might as well use it. It's getting late, you should go to the party first."
Seeing that she wasn't angry, Emily felt much more relieved. "He'll definitely come later. With him backing you up, no one will dare bully you."
The Roberts family was nothing compared to the Gonzalez family.
Was Dennis coming to the party too? Lily felt inexplicably unsettled.
Emily left first. Lily and Zoey weren't finished yet.
Zoey was a bit nervous. "If Emily does this today, she'll completely fall out with her family."
"If she doesn't do anything, she'll just be used and then abandoned."
Just like in her previous life.
Lily was calculating today's plan. She glanced at Zoey. "You can still back out now if you want."
"Would I do something so disloyal?"
Although Zoey was a bit timid, she still wanted to help.
An hour later, Lily and Zoey headed to the seven-star hotel. The West family had booked the entire venue.
When they arrived, there was already a long line of luxury cars.
So their taxi stood out quite a bit.
Even the driver couldn't help but glance at the rearview mirror several times, wondering if Lily and the others were there to cause trouble.
Lily got out of the car without shame and walked toward the hotel with Zoey.
"Lily, why do you crash every party? Today's party only invited friends from high society and the West family's relatives. What gives you the right to be here?"
Samantha, carrying a designer bag, looked at Lily with disdain. "Olivia and Dennis are the real couple. A hick like you should stop daydreaming. If you want to be a mistress, you should look at yourself first. Olivia is the most famous socialite!"
Ever since she found out that the woman Dennis was seeing was Lily, Samantha had been furious enough to want to kill this bitch. If Olivia hadn't stopped her, she would have already done it.
Lily's face was expressionless. She knew something like this would happen at today's party.
Zoey couldn't help but speak up. "What mistress? Watch your mouth. The Gonzalez family has already clarified that there's no engagement with Olivia. You're the ones who keep shamelessly claiming there is."
Samantha was so angry that she raised her hand to hit someone, but Lily grabbed her hand. "If you hit someone here, you'll make headlines tomorrow. Go ahead and try!"
Samantha angrily turned to the security guard at the door. "This woman is here to cause trouble. Don't let her in."
The security guard walked directly up to Lily. "Please leave, both of you."
Zoey was a bit angry. "I'm an invited guest."
Samantha laughed out loud. "You two came by taxi, right? Today's invited guests all have status and position. Why would the West family invite you? If you're going to lie, at least come up with a better excuse!"
She absolutely couldn't let this bitch Lily get what she wanted.
Lily directly took out the invitation and handed it to the security guard.
Samantha's expression froze. "That invitation must be fake."
The security guard scanned it and showed a surprised expression. "The invitation is real. You're Ms. Roberts, right?"
Lily nodded, and the security guard quickly returned the invitation to her.
But Samantha snatched it away. "That's impossible. Lily, how could you receive an invitation from the West family? You must have faked it."
Was it because of the Gonzalez family?
Did the West family have so little respect for the Harper family that they invited this bitch to the party?
At this moment, David appeared with the Roberts family.
David walked directly up to Lily. "You still came. In that case, just stay by my side obediently."
Lily crossed her arms, her red lips curving slightly. "I didn't come because of you."
Sophie also walked over. Seeing the dress Lily was wearing, she was instantly consumed with jealousy.
She had really wanted this dress, but David said he couldn't get it. Now the dress was on Lily!
Could it be that David deliberately gave the dress to Lily to improve their relationship?
Sophie said sarcastically, "Lily, without David, you couldn't even get through the door of the party."
This bitch Lily just kept haunting them!
James looked at David angrily. "David, why did you let Lily come? Wouldn't it be better if our family were all together?"
