Chapter 125
Seeing the endless stream of arriving guests , Patricia and Mason were all smiles .
It was just as what the Rodriguez family thought , they did remember Betty’s birthday .
No , in fact , after so many years of celebrating Betty’s birthday , forgetting it was simply out of the question .
Thus , it was no coincidence that they held their housewarming party today .
They couldn’t help but fume , thinking back to how they had planned to move across from the Rodriguez family , only for Celeste to interfere and enlist Trevor’s help , throwing their plans into disarray .
But Trevor later made up for it , and ironically , they ended up better off because of it .
It made them even more delighted , thinking about how they had scheduled their housewarming party to clash with the Rodriguez family’s event and successfully diverted their guests .
“ Their party must be nearly empty now , huh ? ” Linda stifled a quiet laugh . “ They couldn’t even keep their guests – after all that effort . It’s just humiliating at this point . If word gets out , everyone will know the Rodriguez family
has lost both its influence and connections . Who’d still want to do business with them , honestly ? ”
Ruby applauded and laughed . “ You’re right . ”
Although the Shaws had invited various elites from Baumond , they weren’t familiar with most of them .
While today was the Shaws ‘ housewarming party , it was also a way for them to expand their network .
That night , Wynn wore the diamond bracelet Trevor had bought at the auction for her .
Many people knew that Trevor had splurged over 400 million dollars at the auction to claim four prized items .
Seeing how much Trevor valued Wynn , plenty of people at the party were eager to ingratiate with her .
Noticing how Wynn was wearing the bracelet , they gushed , “ This piece suits you beautifully , Ms. Locket . Mr. Fleming sure has impeccable taste . ”
Though the guests were clearly flattering her , Wynn’s beauty made anything she wore look stunning . With her elegant ensemble tonight , the diamond bracelet complemented her perfectly , adding a refined touch to her noble
presence .
“ Thank you , ” Wynn responded .
Many had brushed up on their knowledge ahead of time to impress the Lockets .
Thus , quite a few people knew that Erin had a keen interest in antiques .
Someone remarked out of nowhere , “ I heard Madam Locket loves collecting antiques . Was the antique vase from the last auction something Mr. Fleming intentionally purchased to honor Madam Locket ? ”
The person phrased his sentence in a way that they believed Trevor already considered himself part of the Lockets .
Wynn nodded in reply . “ Yes , it was . ”
Erin was genuinely fond of that antique vase .
Just thinking about the antique vase put a smile on her face
It was a vase worth over 100 million dollars , after all ,

It was undeniable that Trevor put a lot of thought and money into Wynn .
Upon hearing this , Patricia felt a slight pang of jealousy .
As one of Wynn’s elders , Erin had a priceless antique vase- while she was left with nothing .
But as Wynn had told her , Trevor bought another two prized items at the auction that night , and they were far pricier than the antique vase .
Trevor knew it was the Shaws ‘ housewarming party today .
Patricia reckoned at least one of those two items was for them .
And that put her in a much better mood .
