CHAPTER 97: CHAPTER 97: THE SHEFFIELD FAMILY COMING OF AGE BANQUET

The day of Miss Sheffield’s coming-of-age banquet.

Because the Sheffield Family spared no expense, the banquet was exceptionally grand, and most of Veridia City’s elite were present.

The reporters outside were dazzled, all marveling at the Sheffield Family’s extravagance.

As Adeline Sheffield had said, Shannon Sheffield’s coming-of-age banquet was unprecedented, grand in scale.

In the upstairs room, Shannon Sheffield blushed as she looked at her stunning reflection in the mirror.

The makeup artist beside her praised her, "Miss Sheffield, you’re so beautiful, I wonder what kind of man would be worthy of you."

Shannon hummed proudly, "Naturally the most distinguished man in Veridia City."

After speaking, Shannon told the makeup artist, "Go out and check for me, see if the Faulkner Family has arrived."

"Alright." The makeup artist immediately went out.

Soon, the makeup artist returned after scouting the situation.

"Miss Sheffield, I didn’t see President Faulkner."

Upon hearing this, a look of disappointment flashed across Shannon’s face.

Could it be that Alaric Faulkner wouldn’t attend tonight’s banquet?

At this moment, someone entered to inform her that it was about time for her to make her entrance.

Shannon said indifferently, "Put the necklace on me."

The makeup artist took a blue necklace from a nearby box.

This necklace was designed by Faye Sterling.

It employed an exclusive inlay technique to bring out the magnificent beauty of the sapphire to its fullest.

The large teardrop shape, like a fallen tear, glistened under the lights.

After fastening the necklace around Shannon’s neck, the makeup artist couldn’t help but exclaim, "This necklace is stunning, it highlights Miss Sheffield’s fair and rosy complexion, you’re sure to dazzle everyone tonight."

Shannon glanced at the necklace around her neck, a hint of disdain in her eyes, seemingly unimpressed.

What beauty is this? The one designed by Eleanor Sterling is the truly beautiful piece, but unfortunately, she couldn’t wear it to the event.

She stood up and said, "Alright."

After making her preparations, Shannon left the room.

As night fell and more guests arrived, the Sheffield Family’s coming-of-age banquet grew more lively.

In the banquet hall, the crowd mingled and exchanged toasts, creating a lively atmosphere. Suddenly, the lights dimmed, and a spotlight illuminated the roman spiral staircase as soothing music began to play.

At the top of the stairs, Adeline Sheffield stood.

Under everyone’s gaze, a striking shade of blue appeared before them.

Shannon Sheffield, dressed in a blue evening gown with her long black curls cascading down her shoulders, looked like an enchanting fairy, making hearts flutter.

Especially the necklace around her neck, which shimmered with radiant light, complementing the color of her gown.

This scene drew gasps of admiration from the crowd.

"Oh my god, she’s stunning."

"The necklace around Shannon Sheffield’s neck must be Thea’s Jewelry’s Heart of Blue, it’s gorgeous."

Eyes turned towards Shannon’s neck, with continued exclamations of admiration.

"Shannon Sheffield is beautiful, and wearing this exclusive design enhances her allure even further."

"Thea’s Jewelry’s design is breathtaking."

"Next year, at my daughter’s coming-of-age, I’ll have Thea’s Jewelry customize a jewelry set for her too."

Shannon Sheffield had already taken Adeline Sheffield’s arm and was gracefully descending the steps.

Several young ladies immediately gathered around to chat with her, while Adeline smiled, stepping away to greet guests, leaving the scene to them.
