Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 481: "Who are you? How dare you bump into me? Are you blind? Look at what you've done to my gown!" Carol snapped, narrowing her eyes.

Before Linsey could respond, Carol turned to the security guards and waved her hand dismissively. "Get this woman out of here! She's banned from my family's events from now on!"

Not once did Carol consider that Linsey might be someone she couldn't afford to offend. Having spent years in Grester, Carol had met her fair share of wealthy socialites and even a few female entrepreneurs. But Linsey's face was unfamiliar.

To Carol, that could only mean one thing-she must be a nobody. As the daughter of the Lawson family, Carol believed she had every right to blacklist any insignificant guest at her family's event. At her command, several security guards stepped forward, ready to escort Linsey out.

"Ma'am, you heard Miss Lawson. Please leave," one of them said.

It was only then that Linsey fully understood who Carol was. She was the Lawson family's daughter. She quickly reminded herself-tonight, she was here as Collin's date. It wouldn't be wise to offend anyone from the Lawson family.

Still, she remained calm, her tone firm yet polite. "Miss Lawson, I didn't bump into you-you ran out and collided with me. And for the record, I'm an invited guest at this event. I have an invitation. You can't just throw me out."

Carol sneered. "We invited a lot of people tonight. Don't think having an invitation gives you the right to act however you please. Let me tell you-"

She stopped mid-sentence. Her gaze had landed on the invitation in Linsey's hand-a black-and-gold invitation.

Carol's breath hitched. For this event, the Lawson family had issued different invitations based on status.

Most ordinary guests received blue-and-white invitations. Those with slightly higher standing were given red ones. But only the most distinguished guests-those of the highest rank-were given the exclusive black-and-gold invitation.

Linsey possessed a black-and-gold invitation, which puzzled Carol.

"What's going on with your invitation?" Carol asked, her voice tense and her eyes betraying a flicker of fear. She pondered whether Linsey might be someone of significant stature. Then, an idea struck her, and she mocked, "Now I see. You must have stolen this invitation, or it's certainly a fake!"

Linsey felt bewildered by the allegations.

"Seriously? When did invitations start being genuine or fake?" she thought, her eyebrows furrowing.

"This invitation is valid," Linsey asserted, frustration creeping into her voice.

Collin had given it to her, and it had to be valid.

Carol remained skeptical. She swiftly approached Linsey and grabbed the invitation from her hand.

"You-" Linsey was taken aback by such rudeness. It was hard to believe that someone from the esteemed Lawson family could display such poor manners. Despite her anger, Linsey kept her cool.

She watched quietly as Carol examined the invitation.

Carol's scornful look soon shifted to surprise.

"You are actually-" she stammered, staring at the words "CR Corporation". It dawned on her that Linsey was indeed the wife of the founder of the renowned CR Corporation.

It made perfect sense that Linsey had a black-and-gold invitation.
