On the way back, Sierra Summers was praised by her brother several times, saying that in the future, when encountering people like Quinn Wynn who bully the weak and fear the strong, you have to show some backbone.
"I'm really smart! If it weren't for having Mom, Dad, and brother around, I wouldn't have confronted her directly!" Sierra Summers playfully stuck out her tongue. Normally, she wasn't this bold, but today she was able to stand up to Quinn Wynn because she had company and wasn't scared.
Is Sierra Summers unaware that doing so would offend The Wynn Family? But if The Wynn Family truly disregarded The Summers Family, why would they agree for Quinn Wynn to apologize?
And then, there's the presence of The Sterling Family.
Julia Jennings hugged her daughter, somewhat puzzled. "Chloe Sterling actually helped speak up for you today. Without her, Old Mrs. Sterling wouldn't have made a statement so quickly."
This was something no one had anticipated.
Sierra Summers herself was quite bewildered but thought about Quinn Wynn and then herself. She confidently clenched her fist and said, "Chloe Sterling surely has great judgment! Quinn Wynn is simply too foolish. Either she was certain nothing would happen or she's just brainless for causing a scene at the party."
What's the difference between that and mindlessly running into enemies when playing games?
Ethan Summers chuckled lightly, "Cecilia, she's not that foolish."
Sierra Summers tilted her head and exclaimed, "Huh?"
"This woman is pressuring her grandfather to agree to a marriage alliance with The Sterling Family." Ethan Summers sneered, "From this perspective, she's not foolish. She just has too much confidence."
"Caleb Sterling is the kind of man that even if she threw herself at him, she'd only be humiliating herself."
Evan Summers coughed, "Ethan, watch your words!"
Sierra Summers didn't quite understand and curiously urged her brother to explain clearly.
After Ethan Summers finished a few sentences, Sierra Summers's eyes widened, "Can it really be like this?!"
Quinn Wynn didn't hesitate to ruin her reputation, making the entire affair public just so her grandfather would know her determination to be with Caleb Sterling, giving it a seventy percent chance that Old Master Wynn would agree for The Wynn Family's sake.
Quinn Wynn used this tactic to link The Sterling Family with The Wynn Family, and herself with Caleb Sterling, thereby discouraging other heiresses. In this way, Caleb Sterling would be hers.
Sierra Summers was left speechless.
But Quinn Wynn just decided on her own?!
Did she even ask Caleb Sterling?!
What a self-absorbed woman!
Sierra Summers gritted her teeth, so pushing her and still being willing to apologize was a matter of killing two birds with one stone!!
...
With The Sterling Family's involvement, although things ended messily, The Wynn Family didn't say much.
Even though Quinn Wynn's disgrace of kneeling to Sierra Summers spread throughout the rich women's circle of Beldon, The Wynn Family remained silent.
The rumors of Old Master Wynn's admiration for Caleb Sterling grew more intense, and Quinn Wynn, unlike before, began a high-profile, passionate pursuit of Caleb Sterling.
Sierra Summers kept an eye on this but the more she focused, the more annoyed she felt. For her health, she chose to check the situation every three days.
How can I put this... Being able to relax like this, you have to praise Caleb Sterling. After all, this man is such an unattainable perfection.
Sierra Summers was quite satisfied.
This shows that Caleb Sterling can resist the temptation of beautiful women! Perfect for marriage and daily life.
Besides monitoring social media gossip at home and taking care of her health, Sierra Summers quickly became good friends with Chloe Sterling.
What a coincidence, Chloe Sterling really suits her taste!!
Their conversations every day were like a machine gun firing away.
Chatting about Beldon gossip, talking about food, discussing anything from all over.
Not talking about Caleb Sterling.
The two of them tacitly avoided this man in their discussions.
Sierra Summers wondered why Chloe Sterling never mentioned her brother. Chloe Sterling didn't dare to casually probe Sierra Summers about her views on her brother.
So, whenever the topic seemed to steer toward Caleb Sterling, it bizarrely twisted and shifted onto a new topic.
Sierra Summers several times wanted to directly ask, her fingers poised on "send," but she hesitated!
She's only met Caleb Sterling twice. Bringing him up directly would be like sending Chloe Sterling a message: I'm interested in your brother.
That would be too rash.
Hesitating, the topic had already shifted to food.
