Chapter 334 Why Not Believe in Superstition?
The night scene in Northland had always been magnificent.
Angela followed alongside Jonathan as they entered the banquet hall.
It wasn't her first time attending such an event; she had accompanied him to
similar ones in Riverdon before. But this time, it was clearly different in Northland.
After the two of them appeared, not many people glanced their way.
Occasionally, a few would look over, but after seeing them, they didn’t react
much.
It's a different experience indeed, Angela thought to herself as she linked arms
with Jonathan.
Jonathan remained composed as ever and led Angela to sit down on the side.
Tonight's banquet was a bidding banquet, but Jonathan wasn't particularly
interested in the bidding, so he didn’t even bring his assistant.
Just as they sat down, Angela saw a familiar figure.
“Why is she here?” She frowned as she looked toward the distant figure of
Fanny, who was being embraced by a slightly rotund man, her smile appearing
very insincere.
Jonathan followed Angela's gaze and saw Fanny with the man beside her.
“The man beside her seems to be Dylan Leigh, the CEO of Leigh Group.”
After arriving in Northland, he didn’t take over all the affairs of the branch, but he
had the employees of the branch compile information on the part of the company
in Northland.
These days, he was setting policies and also getting to know the situation in
Northland.
Angela whispered, “It's fine. Just ignore her.”
She did indeed harbor some resentment toward Fanny, but as long as Fanny
didn’t bother her, she didn't intend to seek her out.
However, Fanny unexpectedly appeared in Northland. Could it be that she was
following Christopher?
Before Angela's confusion could be resolved, Fanny brought Dylan over.
“Angela, I didn’t expect you to come to this banquet too!” Fanny's face was filled
with joy, and

were the best of sisters.
Dylan also smiled and said to Angela, “So, you're Angela. What a coincidence.”
Angela, with a hint of sarcasm, asked, “And who might you be?”
Dylan's expression stiffened momentarily as he took a moment to compose
himself before speaking, “I'm a friend of your dad's. Fanny calls me Mr. Leigh, so
it would be fitting for you. to address me the same way.”
“Okay,” Angela replied flatly.
Dylan was George's acquaintance, but their relationship was distant. Angela had
long severed ties with the Kins Family.
If Dylan had approached her alone, she might have responded with more
warmth. But with Fanny by his side, Angela really didn't have a good impression
of him.
Though Dylan undoubtedly sensed Angela's indifference and coldness, he
maintained a smile on his oily face. He took a glass of wine from the waiter’s tray
next to him and handed it to Angela.
“It's been years since I last saw your dad. Now that I see you, let's have a drink,”
he said.
Angela declined the wine and stared at him. “I don't drink.”
Dylan paused momentarily, but instead of retracting the drink, he continued,
“What about the gentleman beside you? He's your husband, right? I heard he’s
quite capable. Can he hold his liquor?”
“He can't either,” Angela replied with a smile, taking the glass of wine and setting
it aside.
Jonathan remained silent. This was Angela's territory domain, arid he was merely
sitting. beside her. If she needed him to speak, he would. However, it was evident
that Angela was determined to handle the situation herself. So, he observed the
interaction between the two without responding, even when Dylan mentioned
him, he didn’t respond and appeared nonchalant and lazy..
“You...” Dylan's smile was starting to falter.
Angela quietly observed his performance.
In truth, she found herself more interested in watching Fanny's awkward antics
than Dylan's.

After all, this was her first encounter with him, and she harbored no strong
feelings toward him.
“Your sister said you were obedient, but I didn’t expect you to show no respect to
your elders,” Dylan said to her in a calm tone, expressing his disappointment.
Angela remained expressionless, She didn't care about his opinion of her,
especially since he was George's friend. He had likely heard negative things
about her from George, so she wasn't surprised..
Glancing briefly at Fanny, Angela caught a glimpse of her evasive eyes and
casually remarked, “She's not my sister, in case you didn’t know. Fanny has left
the Kins Family and isn’t even listed in the Lynch Family's household registration
anymore.”
Angela herself was also not listed on the Kins Family's household registration,
but she saw no need to mention it at that moment. Whether Dylan was aware of
this fact or not was irrelevant.
Fanny's face briefly showed embarrassment, but being naturally adept at putting
on a show, she quickly plastered on a smile and interjected, “Angela and I had
some conflicts at home, and we haven't reconciled yet. Mr. Leigh, shall we go
over there? You mentioned meeting a friend, didn’t you?”
Dylan glanced at Angela once more before agreeing with Fanny's suggestion,
and the two of them departed.
Observing the two as they left, Jonathan remained silent, while Angela couldn't
understand. Fanny's behavior.
She couldn't understand why Fanny insisted on approaching her. Every time she
did, it ended in a lesson learned.
But why won't she learn from her mistakes?
“I didn’t realize George had connections in Northland,” Angela said with a smile
tinged with a hint of disdain.
She felt no respect for George; mentioning his name directly made her feel a bit
disgusted.

“What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” Jonathan asked as he noticed Angela
holding her head. He gently massaged her temples in an attempt to alleviate her
discomfort.
Shaking her head, Angela replied, “No, just feeling a bit nauseous. I'll go to the
restroom.”
She summarized her complex emotions after seeing Fanny as a feeling of
disgust, which seemed reasonable.
Meanwhile, Dylan led Fanny to a secluded corner.
“So that's Angela Kins, the one causing trouble for your family? She seems
difficult to please, but I believe I can handle her,” Dylan remarked.
