Chapter 637 The Count's Wife?

The entire banquet hall fell silent as everyone stared at Scheer with incredulity on their faces. They then turned to look at Mag, and were stunned by the fact that Young Mistress Scheer had personally handwritten their invitation letters.

Thus, everything that Cyril had just said had been thrown straight out the window.

Furthermore, the barbed insult that she had delivered at the end was akin to a slap in the face for Cyril.

Indeed, Scheer could invite someone to the banquet, while Cyril didn't have that right.

Of course, everyone was more surprised by Scheer's attitude toward Mag. For Mag's sake, she was willing to offend Cyril, and it could even be said that she was intent on embarrassing Cyril.

Just who was this Mag? Why did Scheer hold him in such high regard?

Cyril's smug expression immediately stiffened. Scheer's words were like sharp pins stabbing viciously into his heart.

It was indeed true that members of the four major families had the right to invite someone to the banquet, but that right was only reserved to the leaders of those families. As such, he did not have that right.

Scheer was exposing that reality for all of the guests to hear, essentially putting him through public humiliation while stamping her superiority over him.

"Hello, Big Sister Red Dress." Amy greeted Scheer happily as she chewed on her biscuit. She liked this big sister.

"Meow." Ugly Duckling was hanging from Amy's little dress by its paws, and it was looking at Amy's biscuits with a pitiable expression.

"It's alright, Ugly Duckling, I'll hold you once I'm done eating," Amy consoled.

"Meow-"Ugly Duckling turned away with a suicidal expression.

"Hello, Little Amy," Scheer greeted her with a smile.

Cyril looked at Scheer with a dark expression, and said, "If this is a guest invited by Young Mistress Scheer, then I'm sure there won't be any problems. It's just that according to my knowledge, this man has insulted our Chamber of Commerce on more than one occasion, taken the spots of the restaurants of our Chamber of Commerce on the food rankings, and caused some of our board members to be thrown into jail. Does a man like him really deserve to attend our mid-year banquet? What are your intentions in inviting him?"

"What? Is that true?"

"I heard this restaurant owner say that our Chamber of Commerce will close down sooner or later."

"You've heard about Ricky's Rotisserie closing down recently, right? An ice cream shop has been opened in its place, and he's the owner."

"I heard he was related to the incident that got Board Members Goodenia and Devoe thrown into jail."

"Then why would Young Mistress Scheer invite him to the banquet? Isn't that an insult to the Chamber of Commerce?"

Cyril's accusations immediately sent another stir running through the crowd.

Scheer's brows furrowed slightly as she overheard the discussions being held.

A smug smile returned to Cyril's face.

Scheer was trying to compete with Jeffree in the upcoming election, so if he could somehow throw dirt on her reputation, that would surely curry him more favor with Jeffree.

"I don't know who you think you are, but I feel the need to debunk the slanderous claims you're directing against me. Firstly, I am indeed very discontent with the discrimination against half-breed beings encouraged by the Chamber of Commerce. I think that if the Chamber of Commerce upholds these flawed values, it will eventually be led to ruin.
