Chapter 384
Stanley already regretted bringing Alicia along to the summit.
Alicia had zero sense sometimes. With the Fox family in their current situation, rushing up to hand out business cards like that-wasn’t she just asking to be snubbed?
“The seating’s all assigned once we enter,” she muttered, pouting. “I don’t have any other choice.”
But she wasn’t discouraged. If she couldn’t manage it, her mother and grandmother could.
Stella had once been a famous socialite. True, she’d spent years at home playing poker and lying low, but the husbands of her social circle-her close friends’ spouses-still carried weight. Even if most people were avoiding the Fox family, Stella herself could still call in a few favors.
And Lauren could uphold the family’s dignity, no problem.
Back in the day, when Lauren’s husband had been building his empire, he had dealings with many investors in Goldmont City. Generous and uncompromising, he had a high reputation in the circle. Thanks to his lingering influence, Lauren naturally had access to many investors even now.
While Alicia paced outside, irritated, a chauffeur-driven Rolls-Royce Phantom suddenly rolled into view.
The elongated black sedan loomed like a moving palace, regal and overwhelming, instantly making every other car around it look pale in comparison.
“Who’s that big shot?!” Alicia exclaimed, grabbing Stanley’s hand. He glanced over in the direction of the car.
As the car came to a stop, yet before anyone emerged, several attendants and greeters had already swarmed to
the vehicle.
Even Stanley furrowed his brow at the display. “Could it be the Morrison family?”
The summit today was for industry leaders, including some big names from other regions, but the top-tier elite in Goldmont City? The first thought was always the Morrison family.
“The Morrison family? That must be the Morrison heiress!” Alicia’s excitement practically bubbled over.
She didn’t normally follow business news, but the headlines about the Morrison inheritance had left a strong impression. She knew better than to imagine getting close to the Morrison family-but her curiosity got the better of her, and she tugged Stanley along, desperate to catch a glimpse of the legendary heiress.
Before they could get close, a line of security blocked their way.
“What do you think you’re doing?” the head of the guards barked impatiently.
“We…” Alicia glanced at Stanley.
He held up their invitations. “We’re guests.”
“The entrance is over there,” the guard waved them toward the proper route.

All of today’s arrivals were VIPs. The hotel’s entrance was under strict control, and even the passenger drop-off areas were monitored. Alicia had already been wandering outside long enough to draw the guards’ attention.
“Oh… we’re just looking,” Stanley said with a smile, casually slipping a pack of expensive cigarettes into the guard’s pocket. “My wife hasn’t seen much of the world-she just wants to see which big shot that is over there.

The guard’s stern tone softened, though he still waved them off. “You’d better not get closer. Watch from here if you want.”
With that, he turned and walked away, leaving them alone.
Suddenly, Alicia gasped, her voice sharp with shock.
Stanley jumped. “Keep your voice down! This isn’t your home, you know?!”
“She… she is…”
“Who?!” Stanley barely had time to react before Alicia seemed frozen in disbelief, her arm pointing frantically ahead while she looked at him, mouth open as if she’d forgotten how to speak.
“Khloe!”
Finally, Alicia shouted the name.

Her eyes were fixed on the woman who had just stepped down from the car, flanked by attendants and enveloped in attention. It was Khloe.
