Three days later, a charity auction banquet started at 7:00 pm in Saint Manor of Sunderland.

This banquet was large in scale and high in standard. Those qualified to come were either prominent tycoons or celebrities.

What was more, the auction attracted four major families of Sunderland: Lambert Family, Smith Family, Sherwood Family, and Bell Family.

Mary took the black gilding invitation card from Stella.

Today, she specially wore an ice-blue off-shoulder French custom dress embedded with rhinestones and embroidered with a rose on the chest. The neckline and cuffs were dotted with white rhinestones while the waist was decorated with a delicate bowknot. The small dress packed her slender body, setting out her curvy figure.

Her seaweed hair was delicately coiled up behind her head, and she wore a white crown as decoration. Her fine makeup accentuated her stunning appearance.

The dress was expensive and ordered three months ago. The product was shipped a few days ago. Along with Stella's dress, it was delivered to Sherwood's house.

Now that her parents just died, she was not in a mood to dress herself up. But to prevent the company from falling into the hands of her second uncle and for the sake of her brother's revival, she swallowed all the sorrow, stepped on the thorns, and rose to challenges. Now she disregarded everything and went all out.

On ten-centimeter stilettos, Mary got off slowly from a supercar.

Her arrival instantly attracted a lot of attention.

"Isn't that the little princess of Yeates Family? Why is she here?"

"Yeah, her parents just passed away, and she is even in a mood for such a banquet."

"Judging from her attire, she is here to find herself a rich husband. After all, only a great patron could sustain her extravagant lifestyle."

Her parents spoiled her very much, and she was rumored as overbearing. Therefore, many people dubbed her the little princess of Yeates Family.

Although Yeates Family didn't make it into the Big Four, it was still in the first echelon.

Before her parents passed away, she was indeed pampered, and those celebrities were willing to flatter her.

But now with her parents gone, Mary lost her support and became a nobody in their eyes.

Mary acted like she didn't hear their ridicule at all. The handbag in her hand and the white crystal bracelet around her wrist were both limited editions.

Soon, keeping her head high and showing a straight face, she handed the invitation card to a waiter. The waiter checked it and then led her into the house.

She came a little late, and most of the guests were already there, associating and discussing.

As soon as Mary showed up, the discussions suddenly came to a halt, and all the eyes were on the brilliant and attractive lady.

Mary was a well-known beauty since her childhood. As the No. 1 beauty in Sunderland and campus belle of College A, she had many admirers. In this house, almost half of those second-generation rich had tried to woo her.

"Mary, you are here."

"Mary, how are you doing? Restrain your grief over uncle and auntie."

"Mary, I've been hoping to pay you a visit..."

As one person broke the silence, the other admirers also went up to greet her.

Although she lost the support from her parents, her stunning appearance was still her best leverage.

Some of them gave up courting her under family pressure. There were still some coveting her beauty. Now she was all helpless, and they could give her a hand and win her favor.

This scene, however, deeply annoyed several girls in a corner.
