Chapter 19: Sending Her to the
Pervert
As expected, just before entering the cocktail party, Mr. Newton insisted that Hope leave her handbag in the car, claiming that it was too shabby for the occasion.
“Hold my hand, and I’ll introduce you to the high society of H City!”
Mr. Newton bent his arm, and Hope reluctantly linked her arm with his, forcing herself to endure her disgust while secretly planning how to shake off this old thief and find potential business partners.
By the time they entered the party, it had already started. Groups of guests gathered in clusters, drinking and chatting, and only a few noticed the arrival of Mr. Newton and

Hope.
Mr. Newton led Hope directly upstairs to a private lounge.
Before entering the room, Hope was already hit by the overpowering smell of perfume that made her stomach churn!
Hope frowned and halted her steps.
Mr. Newton noticed her hesitation, “Don’t be afraid. You’re my daughter. Even if you can’t compare to Sylvia, you’re still outstanding. No one will mock you for growing up in the countryside.”
Just then, a waiter opened the door to the lounge, and Hope looked up to see a bald man lounging on the sofa, his legs crossed arrogantly.

“Ugh…”
Hope couldn’t help but gag, her stomach flipping as she made a dry heaving noise.
Mr. Newton’s face changed immediately, “Hope! What are you doing? Are you trying to make me angry?”
Hope lowered her head and continued gagging, waving her hand, “I’m just nervous. I need to use the restroom.”
Her voice was shaky, and her limbs went cold.
It had come sooner than expected! Mr. Newton had planned to hand her over to that pervert so early!
“Then go quickly!”

Even with all his cultivated manners, Mr. Newton was so furious that he nearly lost control.
Hope locked herself in a stall in the restroom, and only then did her breathing ease.
She gripped her trembling hands, repeatedly reminding herself.
In her past life, when her hands had been crippled, she had managed to deal with that pervert. Now, with her hands perfectly fine, taking care of him would be more than easy!
There was no need for her to be scared. It was Mr. Newton and that pervert who should be afraid!
Hope took a few deep breaths.
Ding.

A message came through on her phone.
[Easton: When will you be back? Should I come to pick you up?]
Seeing Easton’s message, Hope’s nervousness melted away completely.
Yes, even if she couldn’t handle it, she still had Easton. She believed Easton would come to her rescue, just like in her past life when he came to her, glowing like the sun, and pulled her out of the filthy swamp that was the Newton family.
Hope typed quickly.
[Hope: No need. Just go ahead and sleep if you’re tired.]
She turned her phone to silent and tucked it

back into her dress.
When she left the restroom stall, she tidied herself up in front of the mirror. Her red lips were fiery, her appearance both sexy and cold.
This version of herself wasn’t the type the pervert liked–he preferred delicate, pitiful types like Sylvia.
She could imagine him using all the dungeon tools on Sylvia, and Mr. Newton wouldn’t feel a thing. After all, they were both his daughters!
In her past life, when she was treated this way, Mr. Newton didn’t have a shred of sympathy!
Too bad Sylvia wasn’t here now. Let’s see how Mr. Newton the old thief fares in his

own game!
When she returned, Mr. Newton was already chatting with Griffin.
“Hope, come in! Where have you been so long?”
Mr. Newton’s voice was full of affection, as if he hadn’t just shouted at her in the hallway.
Hope didn’t answer. She walked in slowly and fixed her gaze on the bald man on the sofa.
The man was in his early thirties, with a burly and muscular build. His chest muscles nearly tore through his white shirt.
When he saw Hope walk in, he didn’t move from his seat but openly appraised her with his eyes, from head to toe.

Mr. Newton introduced her, “Mr. Berry, this is my youngest daughter Hope, as I mentioned earlier!‘
“Just as your name suggests, Griffin said with a playful smile, “It makes one long to know you better.”
Hope lowered her head without saying a word, fighting the urge to vomit and punch him.
Mr. Newton waved at Hope, “Hope, come. Serve Mr. Berry a drink.”
“Mr. Berry, I’d like to offer you a drink!”
She walked towards Griffin with the glass, and just as she was about two steps away, she pretended to trip, falling forward and splashing the entire contents of the glass

onto Griffin’s face.
Splash…
The drink soaked Griffin’s face, the alcohol dripping down his fleshy cheeks, making his eyes sting.
Hope scrambled to get up, apologizing meekly, “Ah, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to.”
“I’ll wipe it off for you.”
She picked up a napkin and, under its cover, pretended to wipe the alcohol off his face and clothes, secretly stabbing silver needles into his acupuncture points.
Her movements were so fast that Griffin didn’t feel any pain before it was over.
“Get lost!” Griffin growled, his mood ruined,

She went downstairs and immediately spotted a woman in a purple qipao, chatting confidently with some rich ladies. The
woman’s voluptuous, graceful figure was on full display.
Hope grabbed a glass of juice from a waiter and walked over to the woman, offering it to her.
“Mrs. Knapp, I think this juice suits you better.”
“I prefer red wine,” Mrs. Knapp replied, not intending to switch her drink and clearly irritated by the rude girl.
A well–bred lady would never interrupt others or take matters into her own hands like this!
Seeing Mrs. Knapp’s displeasure and knowing time was running out, Hope went

straight to the point.
“Tomorrow at noon, I’ll be at the Roxy Cafe in the city center. I’ll be waiting for you.”
Hope finished speaking and forcefully took the red wine glass from Mrs. Knapp’s hand.
The other rich ladies whispered.
“Who is this girl? So rude!”
“She must have snuck in.”
“I saw the chairman of the Newton Group bring her in just now. Could she be the lost daughter of the Newton family?”
“It must be her. I heard she grew up eating food from a hundred different families. No wonder she has no manners!”

“How could Mr. Newton bring such a disgraceful daughter out?”
“Mrs. Knapp, let me get you a fresh glass of red wine?”
One of the ladies kindly offered to replace Mrs. Knapp’s drink, but as she stared at the bright red liquid, Mrs. Knapp suddenly lost her desire to drink.
She placed the glass back on the table, “I’m leaving now.”
As she watched Mrs. Knapp leave, the ladies began whispering about Hope, who was sitting in the corner.
“The Newton family really knows how to embarrass themselves by bringing such an ill–mannered daughter.”

““Making Mrs. Knapp angry what good will tthat do for the Newton family???”
Hope pretended not to hear the gossip, nnibbling on some fruit while glanciming Lupstairs.
