Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
From Audrey’s point of view, Evans’s eyelashes were very long. She was momentarily stunned and forgot to look away.
Karl’s speech reached its climax. Evans’s lips suddenly curled up as he slowly lowered his head and met Audrey’s eyes.
Audrey quickly averted her gaze as a hint of unnaturalness flashed across her eyes.
Strange, it was really strange. Wasn’t Evans usually very cold to others? Why did the atmosphere feel strange every time she was with him?
Evans easily saw through some of Audrey’s thoughts, such as the inexplicable embarrassment she felt.
Evans was wondering if he should find another topic to talk to her about. Unexpectedly, Eric, who was standing not far away, suddenly smiled and waved at them.
A pleasantly surprised expression immediately appeared on Audrey’s face.
Evans glanced at Eric calmly.
There were many people at the banquet tonight. As the hosts, Evans and Louis naturally had to take the initiative to greet the guests.
Evans accompanied Audrey for a while before saying that he had something on and had to leave. Audrey had no objections and said with a smile, “Go.”
After Evans left, Audrey walked in Eric’s direction.
As husband and wife, and because of the Lance Family’s status, Anthea and Gary were almost drowned in the crowd at the banquet tonight.
Not long after entering, Anthea and Audrey were separated by human traffic. After she had some time to herself, Anthea wanted to look for Audrey, but she was surprised to see someone.
‘Caroline.’
Anthea wasn’t familiar with Caroline, especially when she recalled the last time she came to the house to look for Audrey. Anthea didn’t like Caroline very much, so she didn’t plan to greet her now that she saw her.
Some people in the hall looked at Anthea curiously, for no other reason than that Gary had experienced a total of four engagements, and his fourth wife was the one who had been with him the longest.
Anthea usually lived in seclusion. Just now, many people had used the excuse of exchanging pleasantries with Gary to look at Anthea from head to toe. Anthea didn’t like being sized up like an object by others, so she told Gary that she would look for Audrey. Unexpectedly, not long after she turned around and left, she bumped into Caroline.
At tonight’s banquet, Gary’s three ex-wives were all here. Coupled with Anthea, his current wife, many people who knew the inside story were waiting to watch the show.
Caroline had just been snubbed by Audrey and was feeling very depressed. When she saw Anthea walking over from afar, she immediately felt a little angry.
“Stop.” The moment Anthea brushed past Caroline, Caroline suddenly said coldly.
Stunned, Anthea looked at the bejeweled woman in front of her in confusion.
Caroline turned around and slowly looked at Anthea at eye level.
To be fair, Anthea was a very beautiful woman. Even though she was almost Z years old, her well-maintained face did not seem to have changed much.
Especially Anthea’s eyes. It was obvious that she had not been influenced by the trivialities of life.
At least to Caroline, her eyes were filled with innocence… and they clearly reflected Caroline’s slightly aged appearance.
It was impossible to say that she didn’t hate him. After Caroline and Gary divorced, she quickly remarried to the head of the Lake Family, but her life wasn’t as smooth as she had imagined.
But this woman in front of her had clearly remarried like her, so why was Gar protecting her so well? And she, Caroline, had to run around and be exhauste because of her family and her son.
“Madam Anthea?” Caroline looked at the docile woman in front of her with interest. “I heard that you’ve been living in seclusion. I didn’t expect it to be true. It’s rare for me to meet you tonight.”
In the past, when Gary attended all kinds of banquets, he would ah that Anthea go with him. However, Anthea didn’t like crowds, nor to gather with those rich ladies for afternoon tea and boring topics
Therefore, Anthea spent most of her time at home tending to her rarely went out to show her face..
