Chapter 343 Can Anyone Just Sneak In?
Kate was sitting in an inconspicuous corner, feeling a bit hungry. She leisurely picked up some cakes from nearby and began to eat.
Edward sat with her for a while before slipping away to observe the layout of the banquet hall and the surveillance systems.
Sitting alone in the corner, Kate attracted quite a bit of attention. Before long, a group of well- dressed girls approached her.
Leading the group was a haughty girl in a gold evening gown, Alice Geis. Her long blonde hair and exotic features made her stand out, but her face was full of arrogance. She looked down at Kate and rudely asked, “Which family are you from? You look unfamiliar. Are they just allowing anyone into this banquet?”
Kate took a slow bite of her cake. Then, she calmly looked up and said, “I’m not from any family. My name is Viola. You’ve probably never heard of me, but I’m the owner of that villa.”
Her voice was light and calm, but her words carried significant weight.
The girl stared at Kate in disbelief and asked, “You bought that villa? Do you really have the means to purchase it?” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
She looked at Kate’s face with a mix of jealousy and suspicion.
Viola was beautiful, and she was also wealthy enough to buy that villa outright, which was located. in the most prestigious area of Sagrado. To live there, one had to be either extremely wealthy or powerful.
Buying that villa meant Viola had immense financial resources.
But could such a young girl really buy that villa on her own? Kate looked unfamiliar to her, and she didn’t seem to come from some small family that was unheard of. Which meant…
She likely relied on a man to buy the villa.
With this thought in mind, Alice felt a bit better. She snorted coldly and looked at Kate disdainfully. Alice charged, “You must have used a man’s money to buy that villa, right? You might have some looks, but you’ll never be on par with us noble ladies.”
Alice’s derision was blatant. Kate raised an eyebrow but didn’t get angry. Instead, she asked calmly, “What do you mean by that?”
“A woman like you, relying on your looks, doesn’t belong in our high society! Do you know who this is? Ms. Alice is the daughter of Sagrado’s prime minister! The pinnacle of wealth and power!”
Alice’s followers proudly introduced her.

Kate chuckled softly, her expression calm and unperturbed.
Alice had hoped to see some embarrassment or inferiority in Kate’s face, something to highlight the vast difference between them. Kate’s indifference left her feeling rattled. Alice asked, “What do you mean? Are you questioning my identity?”
Kate was annoyed by her loud voice. She glanced at her coldly and said, “I didn’t say anything.”
Furious at Kate’s nonchalant demeanour, Alice clenched her teeth and pointed at her, commanding, “Throw this woman out! Our high–society gatherings cannot tolerate this kind of trash; who uses her looks to sneak in!”
As soon as she finished speaking, her followers surged forward to grab Kate.
Kate’s eyes instantly turned icy cold.
She couldn’t understand what had so offended the Prime Minister’s daughter.
All she had been doing was quietly eating some cake in the corner. How had she ended such a heavy accusation?
