Chapter 117
Yolanda finished speaking and forcefully knocked the weapon against Brandon's temple. Then, he groaned and
passed out.
She unloaded the bullets and tucked them into her coat pocket before tossing the weapon beside him. Next, she
turned on her phone and called Blake.
"Ms. Henderson, you finally turned on your phone!" Blake was pacing back and forth anxiously on the other end
of the phone. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Send someone over to clean this up!"
After hanging up, Yolanda wiped her hands with a tissue and headed toward the subway station.
When Yolanda returned to the Henderson residence, she found Diana and Yvonne excitedly discussing something
in the living room. There were several beautifully packaged boxes on the coffee table.
Yvonne hugged a light blue dress, and her eyes were sparkling with enthusiasm. "Mom, | think this blue dress is
perfect for me!"

The more Diana looked at her, the more satisfied Diana became. "I think so too. Just put on slight makeup
later."
Yvonne was Diana's pride, so naturally, Diana was more than willing to invest in her clothing and appearance.
"Okay. I'll go get ready." Yvonne ignored Yolanda and rushed upstairs with the dress.
Diana turned to her and said coldly, "We're going to attend a banquet organized by the Savage family tonight.
Make sure you behave and don't embarrass us!"
If it weren't for the fact that Yolanda had to be there, Diana wouldn't want to take her along.
The reason Yolanda had to attend was because, years ago, Preston had arranged a marriage between Yolanda
and Gavin when the Savage family was less prominent.
But since Preston had passed, the family's fortunes had flourished, widening the gap between the Henderson
family and the Savage family.
They had learned about Yolanda's tin juvenile detention and her lack of ambition, so they recently
approached Diana to annul the engagement.
It took considerable effort for Diana to convince Priscilla to give Yvonne a chance instead.
If Yvonne performed well at the dinner, the Savage family would break the engagement with Yolanda and
announce that Yvonne would be betrothed to Gavin.
Gavin was the heartthrob of the First Academy, and Yvonne had fallen for him at first sight. She understood the
importance of the dinner and took it very seriously.
"The Savage family?" Yolanda immediately caught the key phrase in Diana's words.
"Which Savage family?" she asked.
"There's only one notable Savage family in Riverdale. Who else could it be?" Diana tossed a black dress at
Yolanda. "Change into this quickly!"
The form-fitting black dress would make Yolanda appear slimmer. However, at her
age, wearing a black dress didn't seem quite appropriate.
But Diana was merely trying to find a decent outfit for Yolanda. She did not consider much else.
Yolanda frowned at the dress, but realizing it was likely the Savage family where Gavin was, she didn't dwell on

Half an hour later, Yolanda, Diana, and Yvonne left the house. Yvonne had carefully dressed up and followed
beauty influencers to learn how to do a natural makeup look. She even sneakily applied blush to her earlobes as
well.
The Savage family banquet was held in the VIP hall of a renowned five-star hotel in Riverdale. When they arrived,
they found that many guests already gathered inside.
The moment the three entered, they attracted a lot of attention, and whispers started circulating. "Oh my
goodness. Look over there! That fat woman is so ugly!"
Seven pointed at Yolanda without any discretion. "The Savage family only invites notable people. How did
someone like her get in?"
"| saw that woman at tea with Mrs. Xenid. She's from the Henderson family! Those two women with her are her
daughters."
"Tsk tsk... How can the differences be so stark between Mrs. Henderson's daughters?"
"If it were me, | definitely wouldn't bring that ugly creature out. What a disgrace!"
