Chapter 1923 I Have Someone In Mind
They noticed Chelsea descending the stairs, being led by Phoebe toward a group of people. Unlike the warmth she had shown just moments ago, her demeanor had shifted. She was cold and distant.
Vivian''s lips twitched slightly. "Ceci, do you think your cousin-inw might be interested in women? Is she targeting us?"
Hearing that, even Cecilia couldn''t help butugh.
"What are you thinking? She''s perfectly normal. Maybe she just hasn''t met someone she likes yet."
After what happenedst time, it was safe to assume Chelsea had be highly cautious around the men her family had introduced to her.
Downstairs, Chelsea apanied Phoebe as they mingled with several affluentdies.
"Chelsea is absolutely stunning. I wonder which lucky man will have the honor of marrying her."
"Yeah, she''s not only gorgeous but also has a remarkable presence. I heard she graduated from a prestigious university abroad."
"Phoebe, you''re truly blessed."
Phoebe listened to the wave ofpliments, a smile creeping onto her lips. Yet, she responded with modesty, "There''s no need to tter her so much. What''s the use of being so exceptional if she still hasn''t found a boyfriend?"
“That''s exactly the issue,” someone responded. “She''s too exceptional. Ordinary men simply aren''t worthy of her."
Chelsea stood among the women, feeling increasingly ufortable.
She wished she could walk away, but Phoebe''s firm grip on her wrist kept her anchored.
Elena had also attended the event. With a warm smile, she said to Phoebe, "That''s right, Phoebe. Don''t be too anxious. Chelsea is an outstanding young woman. She won''t have trouble finding the right man."
As Nathaniel''s mother, Elena was highly regarded among the group, especially for having a strong and influential daughter-inw like Cecilia.
Noticing her praise for Chelsea, the others quickly joined in, and soon, it felt like an impromptu fan club had formed around her.
Chelsea was fully aware of the situation. They weren''t admiring her for who she was, but rather for the influence she carried.
To them, a wealthy heiress seemed like an easy target.
"Aunt Phoebe." At that moment, a familiar voice rang out.
Phoebe and Chelsea turned to look, only to find Miranda, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
"Miranda, it''s been a long time."
Phoebe had a soft spot for Miranda. After all, they were both part of the Leighton family.
Though they weren''t rted by blood, their families had intertwined generations ago as members of the Leighton family.
Miranda approached with
enthusiasm, taking Chelsea''s hand. "Chelsea, you''re back. Why didn''t you
tell me? You''ve grown into such a fine youngdy. You look more charming by the day."
Chelsea calmly withdrew her hand, her voice polite yet distant as she said, "Oh,
that''s not true. But you, you''re as dazzling as ever."
She wasn''t particrly fond of Miranda.
To her, Miranda felt too calcting, her kindnessced with insincerity.
Miranda simply smiled. She didn''t reach out to hold her hand again, but instead, she turned to Phoebe and said, "Aunt Phoebe, you''re looking for a boyfriend for Chelsea, right? I have someone in mind, but I''m not sure if he meets your standard."
Many of the wealthy women present had wanted to introduce their sons or
nephews to Chelsea, but none had dared to take the first step.
Now that Miranda had paved the way, the others were eager to follow suit, each hoping to establish a valuable connection.
Phoebe was intrigued. "Oh? Who is it?"
"I''ll keep you guessing for now. Once the party is over, I''ll arrange for them to meet." Miranda was careful not to reveal that the man she intended to introduce was Alec''s brother.
