Chapter 1047
To get out, she had to pass by Danielle and Seth’s seats.
A unique and fresh scent mixed with alcohol hit Seth’s nostrils. He smiled even more blatantly, but his eyes were filled with cold. harshness.
Chloe sat across from him, casting an indifferent look at Seth..
The room’s door was opened and closed by Cicely. Seth leaned back in his chair, his fingers distinctly knuckled, continuously caressing the edge of his glass. His face held a smile, but his expression was gloomy and unfathomable.
She sighed softly and turned her head to look at Damon. He too, was teased into having a few drinks by Kane and others and was now sitting there quietly.
He radiated a dignified and dominant aura, covered with a layer of icy chill, making people hardly dare to look directly at him..
Chloe felt a moment of dizziness.
The way he drank was very different from what she usually saw.
At this moment, he seemed to be the most relaxed.
The aura he exuded at this moment didn’t contain any rationality that he could control.
His posture was completely relaxed, just like when she first saw him.
Later, she got used to his gentleness and pampering, his dominance over her, so she overlooked his genuine demeanor.
She always got too immersed in the comfortable atmosphere he created for her, enjoying all his indulgences.
She had taken away too many rights that belonged to him.
Perhaps realizing Chloe’s gaze, Damon glanced over, instantly locking onto her unprepared sight.
The aura on him immediately retreated a bit, a faint smile appeared on his thin lips. He reached out his hand and held Chloe’s hand.
Chloe’s heart trembled slightly. Damon’s transition from indifferent to gentle only took a few seconds, but this instant change was the longest wait in others‘ eyes.
She obediently let him hold her hand.
Today was Rose’s happiest day, but she felt she was the luckiest person in the world.
She felt somewhat smug.
Chloe lowered her head to check her watch. Jeanette and the others should be almost at the hotel by now.
Tomorrow, it would be Katie and Miles‘ first showdown.
Nearly half an hour passed, and Cicely hadn’t returned.
Chloe turned to Damon and said she was going out to check. Damon slightly furrowed his eyebrows, showing a hint of grievance, but he still let go of her hand.
She couldn’t be indifferent to Cicely. Maybe because of that poor child, or maybe because in her past life, Cicely could also be considered one of her friends.
Only at that time, she had used almost all of her emotions on Seth.
She couldn’t help but look at Seth again. He was sitting there elegantly drinking his wine, and didn’t seem to care about Cicely’s departure.
She thought he would leave as well, but his thoughts were deep and inscrutable.
If he really didn’t care, why did he place her in Emerald Valley Estates then?
Chloe opened the door of the booth. It was bustling outside. At the nearest seat next to the booth, a familiar figure sat there. She was chatting with the men next to her, looking very relaxed and happy.
“You are… Chloe, right?”
A few people sitting across from Chloe looked at each other. Seeing Chloe’s arrival, they even stood up a bit excitedly.
Chloe casually surveyed them. They seemed to be schoolmates, but she wasn’t familiar with them.
Cicely turned her head to look at Chloe, “Are you going to the restroom?”
She didn’t seem to have any intention of leaving, as if she was supposed to be sitting here.
“I’m looking for you.”
Cicely laughed, “Sit for a bit?”
Chloe didn’t reply.
“We’re all classmates.”
“Yeah, yeah, come and sit… It’s a good thing that classmates are getting married. Isn’t this our class reunion?”
Chloe smiled indifferently.
This was Rose’s wedding banquet. As Rose’s friend, she naturally couldn’t spoil the atmosphere.
But she didn’t sit down.
With Cicely, the table seemed quite crowded already. She wasn’t familiar with these people, and there was no need to sit together and chat.
At this moment, the man sitting next to Rose stood up and gave up his seat.
“Chloe… come sit here.”
Chloe glanced at him, recognizing his handsome eyebrows and eyes. This man was always gentlemanly and elegant in school. His family background was very good, but he wasn’t ostentatious, always humble and polite.
She still remembered, that he always took good care of Cicely in school.
Her expression changed slightly. Ultimately, she walked over and stood next to him, nodding at him.
“Hello, Dewey.”
Dewey smiled warmly. Dressed in a black suit, he looked elegant and gentle.
“I’m glad you remember me.”
Chloe smiled, “How could I forget?”
“Please sit.” Dewey gestured to the empty seat.
Chloe pondered for a few seconds, then sat down.
The few people at the table who were initially ignored breathed a sigh of relief.
They didn’t go easy on Chloe in school because of Keira. Later, because of her bullying of Keira, plagiarism, and seduction of judges, they gossiped about her behind her back.
They never thought that since breaking off with Lance, she was like having superpowers. She was no longer accused of plagiarism but became the plagiarized victim. She was no longer suspected of seducing judges. And the instigator of all this involved not only her sister but even her own grandmother.
She clarified all misunderstandings, took down the Summers family, acquired the Olson family, and became a world–renowned top designer. Starlight International, which she now controlled, had developed at an astonishing speed.
Her life, with its ups and downs, was a turn beyond people’s expectations.
Afterwards, her mysterious fiancé sent out a sky–high wedding gift, refreshing their impressions of her time and time again.
If anyone was the biggest winner in life, it had to be Chloe.
Back in the day, they were all played like a fiddle by Keira. Now, getting in touch with Chloe probably wouldn’t be a walk in the park. But making friends with such a legendary classmate would definitely be a game changer for their future. Not to mention… They were all dying to know who the mystery fiancé was, the one who splashed out on that crazy expensive wedding gift for her….
