GoodReadChapter 858 Who Could Back Her Up? In the crowd, Selena spotted Ford's big boss, Alvin Weaver.
She had her sights set on Ford 'cause Alvin was tight with Steve. Selena had chatted with Alvin a few times when she called up Steve.
As soon as Selena strolled over, Alvin grinned and nodded. "Penny, finally, we meet. Steve's always yappin' about you, but this is our first face-to-face." Steve was so into Selena, his student, that he showed off their pics to everyone. Alvin couldn't miss her.

She gave Austin a nudge to toast Alvin. Austin quickly grabbed a glass of wine from a waiter and bowed. "Mr. Weaver, nice to meet you." Alvin got the hint; he had to show srespect for Steve.
Alvin chuckled, "Penny, if I drink this, I'm fallin' into your trap. You senda painting another day, and I'll give him the spokesperson gig, deal?" Selena rarely showed such a sweet smile. "Thanks, Uncle Alvin." Alvin was about to say something when Aria's voice boomed from the stage.
Aria said, "For the next piece, I wanna find someone from the audience to play with me. Anyone know how to play the violin?" Someone in the crowd raised their hand to hype things up.
But Aria skipped over them and locked eyes on Selena. "Let's have Ms. Fair cup. I heard you're pretty good with the violin. I'll probably embarrass myself in front of you today." Selena didn't expect Aria to call her out like that. Aria had the mic, and since it was an interactive bit, everyone turned to look at her.
Because of Selena's fling with Raymond, most folks in the circle knew her name. But this was her first tin front of so many people since her identity got out.
Aria beamed on stage. "I heard Ms. Fair's family had high hopes for you since you were a kid. You must've picked up a few musical skills, right?" Emily was the first to jump in. Even though she was scared of Selena, seeing her squirm was too good to pass up. "Selena, get up there. Can't you play an instrument?" Austin, next to Selena, got a bit nervous. Lately, Aria's been in the spotlight, but she was still a pro. Now that she wanted to embarrass Selena, she'd definitely pick a tough piece. Austin suggested, "Ms. Fair, letgo up. I know a bit of violin." Selena shook her head and stopped him, hearing the whispers around her.
"Her family's not that great. If it weren't for Mr. Montague, she wouldn't have been Raymond's ex-wife." "Raymond probably liked her for her painting. Seems like she can't do much else."
"She's only good at painting, which is why she kept Raymond, She m shouldn't be at this kind of event; she's too out of place." Many in the circle secretly admired Raymond, all hoping Selena would mess up.

"If Ms. Fair can't do it, I'll pick someone else. I won't make it hard for you today, but events like this? had day, but e often have these segments. If you can't do anything, you'll be laughed at." The crowd burst into laughter, and Aria's eyes gleamed with pride. She wanted to show Selena that even with a scandal, she was still part of the White Family.
