Pampered By Power: The True Heiress Returns

Chapter 62

Davis La

Family's status in Sevro

From a short-term perspective, the Davis family indeed seemed like the perfect choice for a marriage alliance.

The was due to their long-standing roots and their reputation as a family of scholars, which earned them

respect.

When it cto business, there was little interaction between the Rosewood and Davis families. So Scott

thought the Davis family wouldn’t be of much help to the Rosewood family’s future development

Besides, with Elysia’s looks, Scott believed there was a chance she could really meant nothing to him.

y make something happen. And when that tcame, the Davis family

Yet, looking at the scene before him, Scott couldn't help but worry. He thought, if Elysia fails to pull it off, then

my family... Thinking this far, he couldn't help but feel a bit resentful towards Elysia.

In contrast to Scott's anxiety, Emma was overjoyed. She had just received a message from Robert, informing

e her about the Davis family’s move to

It wouldn't be long before the news of the Rosewood family’s daughter's birthday party being ignored by all the

major families in Sivro would make the front-page headlines. At that point, Elysia’s reputation would be at risk.

irely unnecessary.

Emma had originally thought that Elysia would truly enjoy a glorious birthday, but it seemed now that her

concerns were entirely

When Ava arrived, she couldn't see Elysia anywhere. After asking a maid, she found out that Elysia was still in

her bedroom upstairs. She went straight up to the second floor, entered Elysia’s room, and immediately spotted

Alice and Flena sitting there.

Ava panted heavily and plopped down onto Elysia’s bed. She said, Tm exhausted.”

Alice said, “Hey! Who are you! You can’t just sit on Elysia’s bed like that!”

Seeing Alice, Ava was puzzled. She asked, “Where did this kid cfrom?”

Alice was speechless. She had a baby face, and being only twelve years old, her youthful innocence hadn't faded

yet.

Although she was now dressed in a gown a

and wearing light makeup, no matter how one looked at her, she was like a little girl.

Ava asked, “Is she your

sister.

Elysi

Elysia replied, “No, her nis Alice, and she really hates being called a laute kid”

Hearing Elysia’s explanation, Ava instantly understood. Seeing Alice acting mature beyond her years. Ava found

it quite amusing. She said, “Well Alice, kid” She really didn’t know how to address Alice, so she added kid.

But as soon as Alice heard the word, her brows furrowed again. She complained inside, She still thinks | am a kid.

She pouted her small lips, clearly displeased.

Seeing this, Elena said. “You're too young, it’s not strange to call you a kid

Seeing Elena help her out of the awkward situation, Ava immediately shot Elena a grateful look. She thought,

‘Elena is so kind"

Alice thought for a moment with her head down. Since Elena said so, | will just let it go. Then she said, “Alright,

Elena”

She looked back at Ava, her expression a mix of pride and coyness. She said, “But you're the last person allowed

to calla kid. If anyone else does it in the future, | won't be happy.”

Ava scratched the back of her head and thought. The last one? Should I consider it as an honor!

Alice continued, “But since you're Elysia’s friend and you've cthis late, don’t you think it’s a bit

inappropriate?”

Upon hearing this, Ava slapped her thigh in frustration, her face full of anger. She said, “Elysia, the Davis family

has been spreading messages behind the scenes, forbidding all the major wealthy familles from attending your

birthday party.

Those whose status and power are not on par with the Davis family are too scared to cto the banquet.

They're all trying to ingratiate themselves with the Davis family. My family’s position is not as high as the Davis

family’s, so

Ava didn’t finish her sentence, but everyone understood

LlyKiH

didn’t know much about what was happening downstairs, but she had heard swhispers. She didn’t expect

the Davis family to act this way, she really hadn't anticipated it.

Chapter 62

Hearing this, Elena’s brows furrowed. She thought the Davis family was overbearing. Recalling the previous

incident where Elysia had asked her to be a witness, she couldn't help but think about Elysia’s situation in the

Rosewood family.

Elena thought. The birthday party turns out like this, wouldn't Elysia’s situation beceven worse in the

future!

Alice was so angry that she cursed outright. These people are really too much. Especially the Davis family!” Then

she thought of something and asked, “Elysia, have you ever offended the Davis family before”

Elysia replied. “I rejected the Davis family’s marriage proposal. They might be suppressing the Rosewood family

because of this. Don’t worry about

Alice asked, “Rejected a marriage proposal?” Her eyes widened, and then her face lit up with joy. She said. “Good

for you! People like that don’t deserve you at all”

Everyone stared at Alice blankly, and then they nodded in agreement. They all thought Alice was right.

Ava looked at Elysia with an apologetic expression and said, Tm sorry, Elysia, I've tried my best to persuade my

parents, but they have to consider the Brown family.

“I was also locked up at hby them, not allowed to cto the banquet. | escaped myself. Look, | even

scraped my hand!” Ava said, lifting her hand in front of Elysia, pointing to the scratch

It wasn’t a shallow wound, about an inch long, with blood already coagulated on it.

Seeing this, Elysia couldn't help but frown. She asked, “Which floor did you climb out from?”

Ava replied. “The second floor.”

Elysia said, “Don’t do such dangerous things next time, okay?”

Ava said, “Okay, | promise.”

Elysia took out a first-aid kit from the cabnearby, took Ava’s hand, and began to treat the wound.

Ava’s heart was melting with warmth, Elysia was so gentle

After the wound was treated, Elysia glanced at the time; it was almost time. She lifted her skirt and stood up

stand up.

when

Seeing this, Ava grabbed Flysia’s arm and said. “Elysia, Ill be with you! She was worried that Flysia would be

upset seeing the situation downstairs, and thouglu that if she was there to accompany her, it might help a bit.

Seeing the determination in Ava’s eyes, Elysia smiled. Friends were probably like this-willing to stand by ones

side no matter the consequences. Ava was just that kind of person

The Brown family’s status and power were not on par with the Davis family. By choosing to stand by Elysia’s side

at this moment, if the Davis family held it against them in the future, the Brown family would surely face trouble.

Seeing Ava'’s firm support, Elysia made up her mind not to let Ava down. A mere Davis family was nothing to her.

If they really had issues in the future, she would protect the Brown family

w well it was organized. Because the main Elysia nodded and sai, “Okay” In truth, she didn’t care how many

guests attended her birthday party or how well it was event of this birthday party wasn’t her, it was the grand

gift she had carefully prepared for Emina.

After Elysia and Ava left. Alice looked at Elena with a puzzled expression and asked, “Elena, why don’t you go

with Flysia?” “You didn’t either,” Elena said as she looked at Alice, a faint smile playing on her lips, seeming to

understand everything. Alice couldn't help but feel a bit guilty. She said, “I have something else to do

Elena said, “Coincidentally, so do I? With that, before Alice could ask what it was, Elena had already started

walking towards the door. Once in the hallway, she found a quieter spot took out her phone, and made a call.

The call went through. Henry, the butler in the Shchon family greeted, “Ms. Shelton.” He was slightly surprised to

receive Elena’s call. He wondered what was the occasion that Elena would call him.

Elena cleared her throat. Her tone was as always cool and detached as she said. “Henry, I'd like to trouble you to

go to the Rosewood residence in Sivao on behalf of the Shelton family, to deliver a birthday gift to Ms. Elysia

Rosewood”
