After Her Engagement Annulled, the Weak Rich Daughter Becomes a Big Shot!

Chapter 51

51 Aubrey’s Anger

As Caroline got into the car and left, the smile on Danika’s face disappeared. What a good little girl, how could she have such a blind father and fiancé?

Even a servant could see Kelly’s ambitious and selfish character, but they treated her like a treasure and doted on her. She only hoped that they would not regret it in the future.

In the Louis Holiday Hotel, the banquet had yet to begin, but the elegantly decorated hall was already filled with guests in fragrant clothes.

With the accompaniment of the live band, everyone raised their glasses and whispered all kinds of gossip.

Since today was Austin’s birthday party, the main topic of the conversation naturally could not be without him. Everyone knew that the favored son of the Campbell family had already been engaged to the daughter of the Lambert family. Coincidentally, in the morning, Balor Lambert had publicly announced that he would disown Caroline. Thus, everyone was very curious as to whether Caroline would attend this banquet and whether the Campbell family would continue to maintain this engagement.

After all, although Balor had said that he wanted to sever their father-daughter relationship, to the Lambert family, Balor was still an outsider without the blood of the Lambert family. If one looked closely, Caroline was still the eldest daughter of the Lambert family. So, would the Campbell family keep their promise, or would they take the opportunity to kick this idiot of a young lady with a bad reputation away?

Balor was still in the hospital at the banquet, so only Aubrey accompanied Kelly to the banquet.

Some gossipy people asked the two of them about it. Why didn’t Balor attend such an important banquet today?

Kelly looked worried. “Father’s body has some minor problems. The doctor said that he needs to rest, so he can’t attend tonight’s party.”

“Oh, then where’s Caroline?” the guest asked again. “As Austin’s fiancée, she should be one of the hosts of this banquet, right? Will she be attending the banquet today?”

The words ‘fiancée’ and ‘hos’ hurt Kelly’s heart. The smile on her face froze, and she hesitated. “I don’t know if my sister will attend the banquet today, but she likes Austin so much. She probably won’t miss such a grand event.”

Beside him, Aubrey was much more direct. “Don’t mention that woman in front of me!”

When the guests heard his expression and tone, they realized that there was a story behind this! His gossipy heart immediately burned.

Because Caroline was too agile, she sold her shares and house within a day without any warning. Thus, the news had not spread yet, and many people did not know what happened.

Aubrey was very angry. He told them how Caroline had sold her shares, how she had sold her house, and how Balor had been so angry that he had a heart attack.

Kelly quickly stopped him. “Sister must have been triggered by something to make such a decision. I believe she must have her own difficulties. Third Brother, please don’t say that about her.”

Aubrey didn’t listen to this. He had only left home for a few days to attend an event at school. When he returned home, he realized that his family had changed.

Half of Lambert Corporation’s shares had changed owners, and the old mansion had almost been sold. In just two days, his father had been hospitalized three times. All of this was thanks to Caroline. These things had seriously provoked Aubrey, and with Kelly instigating him, how could he not be angry?

When everyone heard that such a huge change had happened to the Lambert family, they immediately understood why Balor had been so angry and cut off all ties with Caroline.

That was forty percent of the Lambert Corporation’s shares. Old Mr. Lambert had actually treated this idiot daughter so well, leaving most of the family business to her.

Those with sharp eyes and ears immediately thought of Caroline’s ‘idiot’ reputation that suddenly spread after she was a teenager. It happened after old Mr. Lambert died. The timing was so coincidental, and it might not be without the indulgence of her father, Balor.

In addition to the marriage with the Campbell family, many people were very curious about why Caroline was so unpresentable and did not match up to the outstanding Austin. It was rumored that Austin was very dissatisfied with Caroline, but he did not break off the marriage. Now, it seemed like it was related to the 40% shares.

Now, Caroline had just come of age and sold the shares after taking over. Did Caroline find out the truth and was unwilling to keep the shares, or was she bewitched by someone?
