Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 538

But what Agnes didn't expect was that even before she set foot into the venue, there were already a bunch of people coming up to her to say hi.

"Ms. Pritchard, congrats!"

"Ms. Pritchard, love your new hairdo."

"Ms. Pritchard, happy birthday."

Agnes frowned.

It was clear. They had mistaken her for someone else.

They thought she was Beatrice.

But that left Agnes feeling puzzled.

Even though she and Beatrice were half-sisters, they looked nothing alike.

The fact that they had mistaken her for Beatrice was quite a shocker.

Feeling confused, Agnes walked into the banquet hall.

There were a few security guards standing at the entrance.

Their job was to check invitations and confirm the identities of guests.

When they saw Agnes, they seemed a bit perplexed.

"Ms. Beatrice, weren't you just inside?"

Looks like even these guards had gotten her mixed up.

The confusion in Agnes' mind deepened.

But at least she didn't have to show her invitation.

Agnes simply replied, "I stepped out to change my outfit."

The guards found this very strange.

There was only one entrance to the banquet hall, and they knew all about the comings and goings of the guests.

Ms. Pritchard had just walked in less than ten minutes ago, and now she was back at the door with a new outfit, makeover, and even a new hairstyle.

It was mind-boggling.

But there was no mistaking that face, even though there was something off about it.

Now, the face seemed more pleasing to the eye.

But today was Ms. Pritchard's birthday, so they didn't dare to slack off.

They immediately opened the doors to the banquet hall.

And just like that, Agnes walked in.

Although Ms. Beatrice's influence wasn't significant, her mother Laura was not to be underestimated.

People in the Capital knew what kind of person Berlin was. Over the years, he and his legitimate wife led separate lives, each enjoying their own decadent life.

As Berlin got older, his girlfriends kept getting younger.

But what no one expected was, Berlin, who was in his fifties, had just divorced and married Laura, who was in her forties.

That woman was very well-maintained and still full of charm.

But she was very different from Berlin's preferred type of women over the decades.

What's more, Berlin was originally the general manager of the Thomas Group, but later his position was taken over by his biological daughter with his legitimate wife, Valeria.

In the end, he became the vice-president of the Thomas Group.

The position was a bit awkward, without much real power.

But anyhow, he was Cilian Thomas's only brother.

Cilian had always been very indulgent and lenient towards this brother.

Therefore, Laura, riding on Berlin's coattails, also made great progress in this circle.

She even founded her own jewelry brand and opened a few stores.
